Hmm. I will add my nugget to the list: Those MEN that proceed to take up all available room on the train, splaying their arms and legs and beer bellies everywhere as if they owned the damn thing, mopping the sweat mixed with cheap cologne bought at Archies off their brow with that hanky that their diligent patni handed to them that morning...whilst either a) talking loudly on their mobiles or b) fiddling with ringtones loudly on their mobiles.

More seek than hide : the simple riddles of Vihir Writing a review or even a critical note on Vihir is a daunting task for two reasons: one, the film has such a rich polyphonic repertoire that it is almost impossible for an untrained reviewer like me to do any justice to the film, and second, it has already been brilliantly written about by Shekhar Deshpande on http://dearcinema.com/. The Berlinale 2010 screening has also been reported there . Therefore, rather than a standard review that recounts the basic storyline, this note tries to raise certain issues related to the thematics of the film. In teh post-screening interaction, the first question thrown at Umesh Kulkarni, the director of the movie, was about the fate of Nachiket. The film I guess left a section of audien...
