Such News Posts make it to the Frontpage of IBNLive.com ! – Deepika Padukone’s ‘extra topping’
My friend who sent me this link – thought that it was a new movie called “extra topping”. I felt the same before reading the article and its really not shocking but was surprised though, to see such news posts making to the front-page of such reputed Newspaper website. This is not news, this is something like people blogging about their personal feelings on the newspapers. And note this was added through [Mid-Day]. They write every damn thing they feel personally and put it up as news and we should accept this as news? I don’t say people don’t want gossip but trying to drive traffic by putting such articles seems “interesting” . Hey ! we already have Rediff and Zoom for such stuff? Right ! Why one more .. Just check the screenshot and also the link. The title reads like this – [ Deepika Padukone's 'extra topping' ]

Media Not Taking Any Sides? – 3 Idiots & Five Point Someone Issue
Lets list out the media comments and articles from different newspapers and sites. No site or newspaper has taken sides of any of the two parties, either 3 Idiots nor Chetan Bhagat’s. Media seems to be very clever in such issues. They remain silent to see how the controversy grows and gives more hits and readership to the papers and their sites . All the articles on the news sites don’t confirm anything concrete even though they have seen the movie and read the book too ? Why is everything left to the readers? If you people know the truth and believe in it, why not publish something concrete so that people will know whats wrong and whats right ?. Between.. the video by Raju Hirani and 4th Idiot site has umpteen convincing reasons about who is right and who is not ! Check out

Harmonious Kannada Music – Overdose?
There was a time when kannada music was really soothing with a real blend of style and variety. No doubt, the music experience is still soothing but with less intermixture. The annavaru era was the time where we had an amalgamation of traditional classical, sooper romantic, senti and dance numbers. Those songs had a diverse melody in them and we can say present day music sort of has it in them and as well as not. This might be lightly controversial and disturbing statement, but its very true.
If you can recollect the number of good songs which have been coming up since 2006, we of course owe a lot to the amazing music maker Mr.Mano Murthy and his uncommon style of producing melody. But, wait a little and refresh your memory ! Even other music makers started cloning his style. Yeno antaar alla “atiyada amruta nu visha agatte” antha. Its not that this style of slow style music isn’t good or wasn’t done before and it isn’t experimental, but… there were several genre of music too – not just a single frequency trend (i hope you got it !).

Mariah in Mohit’s Chauhan’s Debut Solo Album – Fitoor
Mohit Chauhan rocks again with his album “Fitoor”. It presents his originality of style with his unique voice. Being a huge fan since “Silk Route” – boodein, dooba dooba…Fitoor is quite catchy. The album has a lovely lady in the album. Mariah is a Brazilian model who is the video. The video looks quite nice with switching different bits and pieces of shots taken at different places. Every blog post or news site has written about Mohit Chauhan’s album, but none have told or written anything about Mariah… (thats the reason I wrote this ). And she is looks gorgeous in the video rather than in this two-piece
Watch the video on youtube – Fitoor – Mohit Chauhan
