Assertiveness
Amisax says that assertiveness is like a bottle of expensive perfume - you can use a lot of it for the effect, but more you use it the sooner you will run out of it.
Independence Day
Amisax says that Freedom is like driving on an 8 lane highway - its a great euphoria and great fun, but you need to recognize that others have the same freedom.

Just Shut Up and Dance
It often happens that you start losing confidence in yourself. Your boss always doubts your intentions, your colleagues are always plotting against you - all this seems to be pulling you back in life. But whenever this happens to you - always remember - he is watching everything. Presenting a Doha ( a rhyming couplet of two lines - often meaning much more than the words therein) here -
Whats in your name - its the name of Ram which does matter
What are so proud of, all at happens is done by the latter
Which means - he is watching everything. If you think nothing can be worse than working at office , then God has made Aditya Chopra and Shaad Ali for you. And together, they have created "Jhoom Baraabar Jhoom" - nothing could be worse than that - not even your boss.
Its a tough task making a full fledged novel of a short story - and the Director fails. There are very few songs in the movie , but every single song is sol ong that it reminds you of a management training -
But then everything is not negative - and one of them is performance. Abhishek, Laara and Bobby have done matchless performances. In many scenes, Bobby Deol has brought a new freshness to the scene. If you are surprised reading this - then think about me watching him in the movie. Preity is repetitive and should sit down and think about it.
Now coming th the name of the movie - about dancing. Three quarters of the movie just gets done without any dancing - but then comes the South Hall Dance Competition. It is nothing short of amazing. It is well choreographed and Abhishek, Lara, Bobby and Preity make you think that your money has been spent well. But then you remember that you are watching this in a Multiplex - and there is a loss.
Oh yes, and there is Amitabh Bacchan - he is there to just face the music, with only one line to say in the entire movie - "Mind blowing" - Yes Sir, we also blew off our lids after watching the movie.
All in all - great performances in a a pathetic story is what Jhoom is all about.
So should I watch it or not ?
Definitely - but on DVD (original not pirated) - or wait for 3 months and it will premiere on TV। Or office parties - save your hard earned money for something else.
