There were evening showers in Nagpur. And in Pench Tiger reserve that I visited last week. And also in Pune, where I am now. What's also remarkable is that in all the cases, these were correctly predicted by the weatherman. So we seem to be getting better at it. Also climbed up the Parvati, a hill with a view, after a long time. Nice look at the evening skyline of Pune.
Finished reading Sidney Lumet's Making Movies. He has a good take on different aspects of film-making, including writing, direction, the actual shooting, camera angles, the editing, ...the works. It is really absorbing to read if you are a movie person. From a man who directed, one of my favourite films, Murder on the Orient Express, it is a treat to read this book. On a par with Woody Allen on Woody Allen, which I read a few months earlier.
Hats off to Anna Hazare, and all the guys who like him, have the guts to stand for something with everything at stake.
A blog about life, Hindi music, films, humour, books, people, places, events, travel, and occasionally, marketing management or leadership. Mostly apolitical, because that is a personal matter that each of us should decide on, and because I don't want to lose readers!
