For all the readers, friends and gossip hungry eels there is some real bad news. Thank you for all the stinkers I received simply because for the last three weeks I have not written Bollywood gup-shup or what have you. The bad news is as you can see from the title of the blog that I am no longer going to be writing what the gristmills are abuzz with. Phew!!! now that I have said it I feel much much better.
The shocking part of it all was when I began writing this blog my intention was never to write only about Bollywood and its so called stars.
If you want the hottest gossip on the film stars I am sure there are many thrashy sites that are doing that job and doing a very fine job of it.
To set the record straight this blog is going to be writing…and writing that concerns me. Things that I feel strongly about. In that if I may sometimes write about movies that make my day or fuck my mind up. Some stars that I want to address or issues that need some thought in cyber space. It may be about my sojourn to the wilderness or to Egypt. It could be anything. But to actually expect me to only write about Bollywood gossip would be sacrilege.
Agreed I work in the movies. I live and breathe movies. But that does not mean my world around me is a film cocoon. What if you are a doctor and you come home to eat intestines..tell your parents about the child you just aborted…or when you meet you friends you carry along tales with you on a cyst ruptured when you were getting it out of a ninty year old lady.
Does the thought repel you? Well movie gossip, movies news and movies trivia all the time for me…upsets me. Sometimes fact is stranger than fiction. Try the taste of life gossip mongers-you will love it. By this I don’t mean I am stopped taking interest in gossip mind you..No never gossip, grist mills, grapevine all are delicious and worth a try and a shot-but there is more to life than just that.Thats all I would I like to clarify once for all.
Dirty linen smells nice and tasty when it belongs to someone else but the stench gets really bad when you its your own underwear…that too with the stink of yesterday. Sometimes smell your own underwear its good for your olfactory channel.

(p.s: I hope I am not sounding holier than thou in this piece. I am just making my stand clear )

dear shiekhspear, glad you told internet challenged old me that i could check in with my g mail id. so here goes.... filmi gossip is passe.... they call nowadays to fill the columns. underwear is another story. without being tagged a fetishist, and without actually having deliberately sniffed at my boxers, it always reminds me of changing rooms at the cci... cheers, viveck.
ooops, Mushtaq, you don't sound holy, you sound pretty angry. But you know, misunderstandings happen and the old name of your blog leads to that. So what I wrote was certainly not meant as a stinker and I'd be sad if you filed me under superficial gossip hungry eel now!
Of course you are right, who wants to talk about job related things all the time! And as for the thrashy sites - those I would not waste time on. It was just...well...from your pen the grapevine sounds so good!
What a wonderful day! Thank you Mushtaq, it was really time for your statement!
When I read some of the last comments, which people wrote, I wondered who has given them the rights to attack another person in the way they did?
Okay, they didn't like your last blogs,but you are absolutely right when you say, there are more important and more interesting things in life than gossip. Hey, all you people out there put off your blinkers and look around!!!
And Mushtaq, write about things that you found at your loft, why the coulours of traffic lights are green, yellow and red, why women posseses 70 different pair of shoes but none pair which fits to the white striped dress, write about whatever you want, but write......
Well, Audrey, I thought I had made it clear that I feel sorry and I did not mean to attack anybody, and of course not Mushtaq. If you felt attacked too, Audrey, I can only repeat that I do not mean to offend.
In fact, I liked your comment with the Bunyan quotation and I am absolutely able to come up with such classic literature too, please do not think me blinkered. If it's serious talk now without the humorous edge to it, that's fine with me. I can sound like Sir Walter Scott's Rev. Dr. Dryasdust. At any rate, Mushtaq can be proud to have a friend like you.
And the explanation for the fact that you did not remark on any of these attacks before, even though you wondered about them is what?
thanks you guys for re-confirming your faith in my writing. After my last blog it looks like shiekhspear has found his throne back.Here he picks his pen and he starts to write..hope to have you guys coming back again and again-just like the nicotine fix...never enough!!!
Dear Mushtaq,
even though my criticism was not because of the fact, that it was not gossip you wrote ( I certainly do not feel like an superficial gossip hungry eel)I want to appologize if I should have hurt your feelings!I thought you wanted comments on your blog but I did not know that they have to be positive! My mistake! And to Lotta, your right, where was the backup and outrage when needed?! And no mistake, it was never a question about the quality of your writing. Still comming back for more!
knowing you, i expected you to post this new message a bit earlier...i'm glad u finally did it!!!a big phisssshhhh for this one!
