Movies I watched last year. Or 100 movies you need not watch before you die.
Collected these over the last year from a '5-in-1' shop in a basti (now demolished) in Gurgaon.

Year of the "naagin" then ?
It started as that but soon descended to include lot of other poisonous material like Kanti Shahs, Sapnas, Shakeelas and whatnots. The sad part is I have actually seen one of these movies uncut (Sar Kati Lash) sitting on a wobbly wooden chair in front row of a run-down shack theatre in a town outside Nagpur.
"100 movies you need not watch before you die"
This line had me cracking for like almost 10 minutes, the moment I read it. Just managed to compose myself to let you know that. Wittiest line I've come across in a long time.
Even at the cost of sounding repetitive, a simply amazing blog. Eagerly look forward to your posts.
