DumbCharades (DC) and its different rounds or concepts

Dumb-charades... or DC or Dumbsi is a wonderful game, and can be called full time pass or in other slang paisa vasool .... This is the game I play whenever I have to either go to or come back from my workplace, and I must say the bug has caught on. Slowly but surely there have been a steady addition to the number of people who play the game. Moreover we had a neat trip to Kerala the whole team of us and all through the while we were at it... from struggling first timers to seasoned pro's (read me) we played this game and it gave us a whole lot of fun. Some of the different concepts or rounds that can be used to play DC are listed below, do feel free to add your concept to this :D Name of Movies Name of Television Serials Name of Famous personalities Incidents of Historical significance Name of Hotel's (can be location specific) English words (help in enhancing your vocabulary) Songs (has different variants, can be the Ending letter to continue, can be a word picked from the...

Gaalipata .... Hype ???? Hope Not !!!

Image
Today marks the day Mungaaru Male Part II or rather the next movie that has the Yograj Bhat - Ganesh combination part II is released. There has been a lot of eager anticipation and tongue in cheekiness regarding the movie. Will it prove to be a hit or will it die down in a whimper ? This my friends is left to be seen. I hope it is not a hype and will prove to be another bumper in terms of records, I hope for this to happen not only to keep Ganesh's and Yograj Bhat's reputation intact but, also for the careers of the following people I adore. Rajesh Krishnan the singer par excellence, AIR Karnataka's singer of the year, now who has lost out on various singing chances due to the entry of so many Hindi singers. Neethu from Poojari to Gaalipata , hope this movie makes it great for this talented actress- danseuse Diganth is on a roll now a days, Daisy Bopanna , this leggy lass is my lambi race ki ghodi ...watch out she is good. The songs of the movie have come ou...

Why did Mungaaru Male become the 1st movie to run in a multiplex ?

A record of sorts has been created, and that too by a Kannada movie, now that is what I term WOW (Wonder of Wonders). Your typical movie runs say for 5 shows a day (if not more) during the 1st week of its release in a Multiplex, then slowly the number of shows reduce, finally after a hit film runs for over a 100 days (Max) it vanishes to re-appear in DVD format. But a small time Kannada movie starring absolute no-bodies in the Kannada Film industry (Sandalwood) runs for a year, yes let me repeat a whole year in a multiplex...now who would have thought this would be possible ? Why did the movie click in spite of not having any major star who has acted in huge hits apart from Mr Anant Nag ? Why did the movie click despite having a not-so-noted director ? Why has it reaped in so much money for the producer who had to distribute the film himself at first ? Here are my thoughts, a repeat again, these are my thoughts and my thoughts only :D on how come Mungaaru Male achieved the almost impos...
