Stills from Three Idiots’ movie shoot

Written by praveen on February 4, 2009 – 11:00 pm

A friend of mine forwarded a few pix from the forthcoming Aamir movie 3 Idiots. The movie is based on Chetan Bhagat’s blockbuster novel ‘Five Point Someone‘ and the crew was shooting at IIM Bangalore. Seen here is Aamir eating dinner while playing a game of chess. This is one movie I wouldn’t want to miss in 09. It’s a Rajkumar Hirani movie after all!

The Money Experiment – Netflix Downgrade

Written by praveen on November 24, 2008 – 3:25 am


I and Khushi are major movie buffs. We see at least 3-4 movies every week and NetFlix has been one of our greatest movie resource over the past 2 years or so. Recently we got a great deal on AT&T UVerse’s 200 channel program and honestly, we haven’t been able to keep up with all the movies out there. To make things worse (or better?), ATT gave us a free upgrade to their U300 program. That meant even more movies. The movies that we used to get from Netflix just started laying around for days together, if not months! I was enrolled on their 2-at-a-time program for 13.99 a month. Usually, that meant 2 movies over the weekend during our cable-free life which was too good a deal. But now, with all the choice available, it didn’t make much sense. So today I downgraded to their 1-at-a-time program for 8.99 which I’m not sure is gonna get used that much either. Still this means a 5 dollar saving every month which translates to $60 a year.

Money scraped this month = $5.

This is a forthcoming Tamil movie making news in the South. Music by Harris Jayaraj is catchy and cinematography looks really slick. It’s being directed by Gautham Menon of Minnale fame. Check it out if you’re a fan of South Indian cinema. It’s coming out on Nov 14.
