No Man's Land : Christiania

Christiania is altogether a different place!
A small world having its own definition of progress, prosperity & happiness. A balanced economy of around 850 residents, most of them perform arts of one kind or the other for their living.
When I went there, I found colors all around. Memories of those graffitis on wooden wall, wooden houses for skateboarding and christianians selling colorful souvenirs, are there to remain with me forever.

Christianians have succeeded in not letting their habitat be affected by external forces. You will experience the difference between Copenhagen (infact the rest of world) & christiania as soon as you enter this freetown of 34 acres.


Recently (Sadly), there has been increasing protest and conflicts in an around christiania.
Don't know what's the fate of this 'no man's land' but i hope it remains as it is and i get a chance to take my kids to this freetown.
I wish christianians all the best, in the struggle to retain their culture & prosper in their own choosen way!
Amen.

Bachna Ae Haseeno!

Seems quite promising. Yash Raj Banner, top chicks of bollywood(Bipasha,Lamba & Deepika) and the cutie Ranbir Kapoor, it has it all!
I just checked its music and now can bet that it will be one of the 3 biggest hit of 2008!

Bachna Ae Haseeno would have been the ideal launch pad for Ranbir, wondering what made him go for Saawaariya.I guess it was consistency of Sanjay L Bhansali to comeup with larger than life movies/epics that attracted Ranbir. But well , dismal performance of Saawaariya taught us all a lesson :
"No matter how consistent you have been in the past, if you are obsessed with something,it is always dangerous."
Coming back to Bachna Ae Haseeno, there are 7 songs out of which 4 are mind blowing (Khuda Jaane, Title Song, Khuda Jaane(revisited) & Aahista Aahista) and rest three are ok types.
Shooting of 'Khuda Jaane' song has been done in Greece, Venice and countryside of Italy.(Thank god Yashraj prod. took a break from shooting in UK,US nd Switzerland). Some beauties would be new to bollywood audience, especially canals of venice and romancing on gondola.

PS : From sources I got to know that even Katrina Kaif is in the movie. (No points for guessing that Ranbir will fall for her at the end)
