Ranbir Kapoor Worth More Than Kareena

Hmm... Gay or not? Let me ponder over this one...


Closets all around the country must be so proud. Turns out Ranbir's Wake Up Sid and Twit and Twat's (my nicks for Saif and Bebo) new flick Jehaad are both being produced by Dharma Productions but the former has a budget of Rs.60 crores while the other's is about Rs.42 crores. Now I would usually congratulate anyone who one-ups Kareena Kapoor, but all I can say now is, "They have Rs.102 crores running on these three excuses for actors??"

Well, actually, the production sale for Ranbir's movie was about Rs.80+ crores or so earlier, but they had to cut costs due to the recession. It's funny how they blame everything on that. Why movies are flopping, why actors are being underpaid, why movies are being delayed - all thanks to the recession. It's got nothing to do with the shallow pool of immeasurable non-talent that Bollywood shovelled for itself, or the total disregard for a semblance of a plot in movies anymore. It's all got to do with the recession. Uh huh. Yup. That will be all.

Whoa!

Recently, a global HR consultancy, Mercer, conducted a survey and pronounced Mumbai and Delhi as two amongst the world's top ten most expensive cities. They were voted 4th and 8th respectively, while Moscow and Tokyo took the first two positions.

Mumbai and Delhi were previously in the 5th and 6th position respectively.


Now this isn't even news to me. It may be to YOU since you hardly care how much cash you spend for your own self-righteous wants. Is that a new Prada overcoat? How much did that set you back by? 2.5 lakhs, you say? Why do you need a coat for in the first place; it's like a million degrees out here in Mumbai. Doesn't your bloody conscience prick you? Not even a little bit?

Meanwhile, I was detained by the traffic police today for picking a fight with an auto-rickshawwala over Rs.15.
