I saw that movie and I was like this guy can act. Filmfare and these other awards only give awards to the most successful film, which may not be the best movie. The movie Iqbal deserved more than what it got - it was an excellent movie. Unfortunately the movie system in India is still star-based.<BR/><BR/>And nope, I am not meeraj, I am Mezba! :-)<BR/><BR/>Aisha: Got crash last night. Will watch it over the weekend.mezbahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16450639860657867772noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7600258.post-1142228114667151282006-03-13T00:35:00.000-05:002006-03-13T00:35:00.000-05:00lol @ the Rekha and his wife shots...

It's biased. I don't need to give reasons why. It just is. And people know that.<BR/><BR/>2. Ever wondered why one movie tends to win all the awards? And why is it always an SRK, Amitabh, Hrithik one? Hmm, I DO wonder. It's a straight flush, from lighting to actor and director. Even the background dancers would have won an award for that if they had a category like that.<BR/><BR/>3. They practice desi politics. Hey, that's so-and-so's nephews best friend...we need to give him an award. Hence, they will have a newcomer's award, a debut award, a photogenic award, a clean-shaven award, a heart-throb award, a potential-winner-of-one-of-our-REAL-awards-10-years-down-the-line award. Nepotism? Of course not. Just survival instincts. You don't want chota shakil (or whats-his-face) coming at you with an axe, do YA?!<BR/><BR/>4. The dances are well and good, but who else realizes that these people really CAN'T dance??! cameras with their amazing splicing functions make these ladies look like they are traditional kathak dancers. Na ah! you see them in real life at the award functions and realize they really can't. Thank God they LOOK good. I mean, that was a blow on to itself. Now you'll tell me Santa doesn't exist either! Sure!<BR/><BR/>5. They really don't look good. Accept it. And people, Santa doesn't exist either. The sooner you accept it the better. Which is why their make-up artist award is truely the most well-deserved one. <BR/><BR/>6. Amitabh and Rekha. Please. Give it a rest ALREADY! Do you people not have enough fodder with all your current crop of actresses that you want to USE the Big B and a classic at this day and age??! Jeez. <BR/><BR/>7. They don't recognize the talent in Ajay Devgan. Blasphemy or just blindness?!<BR/><BR/>8. I just don't like 'em. <BR/><BR/>Now I am done! =) That should have been a long enough comment to validate the otherwise lack of them for this post. I really liked it! <BR/><BR/>Btw, I met this kid at Queen's who's from UAE and I mentioned you. Are you meraj by any chance?nalumonihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12960448076131520817noreply@blogger.com
