Untamed Desires!!

A slugfest of bad acting, editing and screenplay. In an attempt to create shock value, completely misses the point of the book.

Else, if short on time, watch the 2016 version instead where Emily Blunt makes a far better attempt to portray The Girl on the Train.

It has always been this way.   But there are some rare books that demand an exception. A kind of book that moves you on so many levels that it becomes important to bare you heart out. It demands being talked about. It compels you to share what you are feeling. Because what you are feeling is a combination of so many emotions that if you don't talk about it you will be overwhelmed. And you know that once you talk about it, you will feel so much lighter. Because you know that you will have spread a story that is, without an iota of doubt, a kind of story that is needed so much in today's times. It's importance in today's world cannot be overestimated. Such purity in emotions...

Sarabhai vs Sarabhai was a breath of fresh air when it was first released in 2004. It did not matter that the show was released on a newly launched channel (Star one, Star’s daring attempt to target the audience of 21 st century with fresh content). The show was successful in creating an impact and no doubt that it gathered a cult following. It filled a huge void in Indian sitcom space. And became immortal along with arguably the best Hindi sitcoms including but not limited to Dekh Bhai Dekh, Hum Paanch, and Khichdi. So there is no doubt that when in mid-2016 the star...
