Cast / Actors of the movie ishqiya

Naseeruddin Shah ... as Khalujan/khalu. 51-year-old Khalujan is a pure romantic at heart. He is a bit of an odd cookie in the world of crime. Sure, he has a sharp mind and body and has been toughened up over the years living in the world of guns and gangsters; yet, he is very emotional and tender at the core.He wants to go back to his village and wants to settle down in a quiet, peaceful country life existence.Only, life had other plans for him. Love happens to him. Krishna happens to him.
Arshad Warsi ... as Babban Hussain. 32-year-old Babban is in more ways than one, the antithesis of the kind of man his uncle is. If Khalujan is all heart and soul, Babban is all flesh and blood. He is hot-blooded, lustful and scoffs at the idea of true romantic love. Babban is cynical, indifferent to finer things in life and tough as nails. Through the course of the film, Babban discovers what it is to love and to be betrayed. It makes the dormant softer side of him come alive. Perhaps for the first time in his life, Babban cares, for Krishna.
Vidya Balan ... as Krishna Verma. 30 years old, femme fatale, small-town girl, mysterious woman and forgotten widow: Krishna is a bundle of contradictions. She was seen as a woman madly in love, as an object of desire, as a vision of purity and she engaging herself in a lustful bout with another man. ,nilabja
Salman Shahid ... as Mushtaq
Anupama Kumar ... as Manju

Me thinks they doth protest too much...

I missed this a couple of weeks ago, but Mary Rose over at the Prodigal Catholic Daughter has a post about more whining at the National Catholic Distorter about the investigation into LCWR communities.

She does a great job of commenting on the whining:

It is celebrated every year on the fifth day (Panchami) of the Indian month Magh (January-February), the first day of spring.This festival is a jubilant occasion in Basara Gnana Saraswati Temple in Andhra Pradesh.

Also known as Saraswati Puja this festival is celebrated in Nepal, India and Bangladesh to invoke wisdom and consciousness in human beings.

She is considered as the personification of all knowledge - arts, sciences, crafts and other skills.

“May the occasion of Vasant Panchami, Bring the wealth of knowledge to U,
May U be blessed by Goddess Saraswati & All Ur Wishes Come True”

“May Goddess Saraswati,Who is fair like the jasmine-colored moon,
Who is surrounded & respected by the Gods,Protect You.
May she fully remove Ur Lethargy, Sluggishness, & Ignorance.
& Brighten Ur life wid Knowledge.”

"When u find a DREAM inside ur HEART…
don’t ever let it go…Coz dreams r the tiny seeds
frm which beautiful 2morrow grows.
Happy Basant Panchami & Saraswati Puja"

The Hand Never Held

At Mass this past Sunday, with January 22 coming up, our Priest touched on the abortion issue at Mass. He stated that we should make a special penance on that day, which sounds like a good idea. Right after the homily, we stood for the Creed. As we started, my little one (he's six, but he's still my little one), slipped his fingers into my hand. I turned and looked at him and he gave me the sweetest little smile - the one all of us parents see from time to time, that kind that can make your heart break into a million tiny pieces.

As I turned back to finish the Creed, my mind drifted as I held his little fingers. I thought back to the homily. I thought of all the little hands never held, all the smiles missed, all the joy missed out on over these last 36 years that we've had legalized abortion in this country. As so often happens, I drew a mental picture.

It may not be very original.
It may not even be very good.
Hopefully it conveys what I saw.

Pongal Greetings

Pongal is a festival when the natives of Tamil Nadu, in particular the farmer community, celebrate the Sun God and the farm animals. In Tamil Nadu, Pongal is celebrated with great pomp and show for 4 days. On Thai Pongal day, the entire family wakes up early in the morning take bath, wear new clothes and congregate in the courtyard to cook the customary Pongal (rice pudding). The eldest member of the family does the cooking of Pongal who is aided by the

other members. When milk begins to trickles from the pot, everybody shouts "Pongalo Pongal". This very moment signifies a promising sign. Some of the cooked meal is then put aside as a sign of thanks giving to the sun, nature and farmers. Later the left food is shared among the family, friends and neighbors.

Although the above scenario principally takes place in Tamil Nadu but the greetings of Pongal is exchanged by everybody regardless of their religion and region. This is best done when a family comes together to celebrate Pongal over dinner /lunch. Besides, keeping pace with the modern technology, people now a days also sent Pongal Cards, Pongal e-cards and Pongal greeting cards to their family and friends. Some of the messages that you can forward to your kiths and kin can be:


As you celebrate the festival of Pongal, with a lot of fervor and cheer, this warm greeting comes your way, with a world of good wishes for every joy and happiness."

"Pongal is here, an occasion that marks joy and cheer, and brings along everything that's best. May the festival of the harvest season, be one that brings along with it, all that's best and everything you're so deserving of. Have a memorable Pongal."

"Sending your way, warm greetings on the auspicious occasion of Pongal and wishing you life's best now and in all the days to come. As you joyfully celebrate the festival of Pongal and welcome the harvest season, this greeting is being sent your way, to wish you everything that the occasion is meant to bring. Have a happy Pongal"

Wishing you all a very Happy Pongal.

Significance of Makar Sakranti: Festival of Harvest

Celebrated on: Jan. 14 by Kite flying Celebrations

See : Makar Sankranti Greetings, Makar Sankranti SMS

Makar stands for Capricorn & Sankranti words stands for transition. Every month there is sakranti, as sun shifts from 1 zodiac sign to another. As there are 12 zodiac signs, so 12 sakranti’s too. Every sankranti has got their relevant significance but 2 most important sakranti’s are: Mesh Sankranti & Makar Sankranti. Makar Sakranti is more important. During Makar Sakranti, sun transits from Sagittarius sign to Capricorn. From Makar Sakranti, auspicious days for higher world’s attainment are highly considered among people.

On Makar Sankranti, Gayatri Mantra, is chanted, so Sun God, bless all with aptitude & wisdom. Sun not only symbolize God but also symbolizes personification of knowledge & wisdom.

Makar Sankranti festival is celebrated all through India with the name of harvest festival. These way humans perform thanks-giving rites to elements of nature that help human.

During this time farmers bring their harvests to their home. In North India, people considered Kumb Snan to be auspicious on this day. They eat Khichri & give it as charity too. People even distribute (give daan) rice & lentils to poor & needy people.

As period of 6 months, after Makar Sakranti is considered auspicious to attain higher world, so Puranas describes that on Makar Sakranti Sun visit his son Shani’s house, who is rule (swami) of Makar Rashi (Capricorn sunsign). Although these father-son (sun-saturn) duo can never be seen getting along nicely with each other, but despite this fact, they meet up on this point.

Call this Pongal, Lohri or Sankranti, these festivals actually conveys similar message- the bonding of brotherhood & spirit of 1ness should exist regardless of all odds. But very rare people send makar sankranti wishes through makar sankranti greetings, sankranti sms. | Source: Ganpatinews.com

Connecting the dots?

AISH has a good article on our refusal to "connect the dots" on these so- called "isolated" incidents.

Obama's inability to see Islam as the problem can be boiled down to either naivety or a refusal to deal with reality. I don't believe he's naive. Refusing to see the enemy doesn't make the enemy any less real. Obama's problem is this - how does he continue to play the role of President while at the same time allow it's enemies to run wild?

Read the article here:

Diversity yes - Catholicism no

I saw something recently that referenced a "parish diversity council", and naturally I wondered "What the he-"? What does a parish need a "diversity council" (or any council) for? Funny, whenever I found a "diversity council", I never saw any reference to a Latin Mass at those parishes. Just sayin'.

Maybe there should be some Parish Catholic Councils, as a way to ensure that some Catholicism is retained in a given parish. "Sorry Ms. Judy Attitudy, a Pie Throwers Mass doesn't square with the GRIM, so NO, you can't have one."

Acts of the Apostacy has a review of the recently experienced Talk Show Mass.

Guru Nanak Sahib (the First Nanak, the founder of Sikhism) was born on 15th April, 1469 at Rai-Bhoi-di Talwandi in the present distrect of Shekhupura (Pakistan), now Nanakana Sahib. The Birthday of Guru Nanak Sahib is celebrated on 15th Kartik Puranmashi i.e. full moon day of the month Kartik. On this day the Birthday of Guru Nanak Sahib is celebrated every year. (But some other chronicals state that Guru Nanak Sahib was born on 20th October,1469) Guru Nanak's father, Mehta Kalyan Das, more popularly known as Mehta Kalu was the agent and Chief Accountant of Rai Bular. Guru Nanak 's mother was Mata Tripta, a simple, pious and extremely religious woman. Nanak had an elder sister, Nanki, who always cherished her younger brother.

The best SMS Message for Gurpurab

Nanak naam jahaaz hai, jo chadhe so uttre paar
Jehda thalle reh gaya, Nanak nahi jimme vaar!


The most hillarious thing I ever heard. I send it to all my friends. NOM to the respect but this one is specially for the ppl who mis-behave against the religion.

GurPurabs mark the culmination of Prabhat Pheris, the early morning procession that start from the gurdwaras (Sikh temples) and then go around localities singing 'shabads' (hymns). The celebrations also include the three-day Akhand path, during which the holy book, the Guru Granth Sahib is read continuously, from beginning to end without a break. On the day of the festival, the Granth Sahib is also carried in a procession on a float, decorated with flowers, throughout a village or city. Five armed guards, who represent the Panj Pyares, head the procession carrying Nishan Sahibs (the Sikh flag). Local bands playing religious music form a special part of the procession.

The anniversaries of Sikh Guru's are known as Gurpurabs (festivals) and are celebrated with devotion and dedication. For Sri Guru Nanak Dev Ji ... its called Guru Nanak Jayanti.

Free sweets and langar or community lunches are also offered to everyone irrespective of religious faith. Men, women, and children, participate in this karseva as service to the community, cook food and distribute it in the 'Guru ka Langar', with the traditional 'Karah Prasad'.

Guru Nanak Dev Ji is the first of the ten Sikh Gurus. Sikhs believe that all subsequent Gurus possessed Guru Nanak's divinity and religious authority.

On this auspicious occasion of the birthday of Sh.Guru Nanak Dev Ji, I wish to convey you all my heartiest congratulations !!
Happy GURPURAB...!!

The Secular Humanist Choir Sings!

Yesterday, the Feast of the Epiphany, we closed the Mass by singing Oh Come All Ye Faithful. Thankfully, this NOT being the 2nd Sunday of the Month, it was NOT accompanied by a guitar.

I found myself humming it during the day, in between watching as much football as I could. I also found myself thinking of what our pastor said during the homily, about the Epiphany being the "unveiling" of Christ and how the Magi "took a different route" once they'd seen the Lord. (Some of that had to do with the angels, of course).

The Epiphany or our Lord. Probably something the atheists hate even more than Christmas itself. I mean, for crying out loud, it's bad enough we have to celebrate His birth, then a week later we celebrate the "unveiling" for all to see??? Sheesh!!

So while humming Oh Come All Ye Faithful, somehow I was struck with the idea of how the secular humanists would sing it.
