Singh is King!!

The 2008 Wimbledon men's finals was a treat to watch and Fedex seems to have lost control. A classic in all aspects, the epic 288 minutes match brought back memories of great rivalries of Bjorkman vs Borg and Sampras vs Aggasi.52 unforced errors by Federer compared to Nadal's 27 and a better break point conversion by Rafa made all the difference.The spanish star has finally got his footing right on the big circuit and looks set to win more. As far as Federer is concerned, he seems to be on a downhill.

Another legend who has had a tough time lately has been the Indian "Prime" Minister, Mr.Manmohan Singh. An enviable resume (http://pmindia.nic.in/cv.htm) has not been good enough to get his basics right on the political front. Termed the "kamzor kadi" of all the pradhan mantris so far, by the "never give up (top seat)" BJP supremo Advani, Mr.Singh has been unable to assertively put his critics in place. Going by the current scenario, he looks set to continue the full term..
ending here again..

Sallu Tussi Great Ho..

and why? Salman "10 ka Dum" Khan, to many may be the big bad brat of Indian Celeb honchos..but then hes also the most sought after bollywood actor in India, with most of his fanatics belonging to the masses of the country. True.. hes been under the policing radar for all the wrong reasons, best advertised by the media in its entirety..




here are a few reasons why Sallu Bhai is the complete superstar of Indian Cinema:

-- 2 decades.. about 67 movies and still going strong.. hes consistently managed to stay in the top 3 league of the great desi Heroes.

-- the only big shot actor whos shared screen space with all leading actors of his time right from Mithun Da to Govinda.(remember Ace Khan & SRK have never been together in any movie..although they show their mutual respect through their pets & names).

-- he can act, dance, fight, mimic, laugh, cry & enact all the emotions you can find in any human being.( a high range of product assortment-- in retail terms)

-- one actor who has never sought publicity and yet has managed to be in the thick of things

-- rated by a popular english magazine as the 7th most handsome man on earth (back then)

-- he started the trend of physical fitness & also has helped train Hrithik Roshan with his muscles, without throwing any starry tantrums.. Dard-E-Disco ka 6 pack toh abhi abhi shuru hua hain.

-- hes said to have agreed to act in some super dud movies like "Saawan: the love season" just for the sake of his producer friends.

-- he has sacrificed, more often than not, his lady love in both reel & real life.. & still manages to hold the tag of Bollywood's elite bachelor.

-- and yeah.. he also helps the producers in cost cutting.. dont the costumes amount to a big fat expenditure?.. apne Sallu miyan toh kapdon ke bina bhi show run karte hain ;)

-- On serious count, he is involved in many charity projects and also runs his own charity home without any help from external organisations.

-- Sallu bhai's co-actors usually give a very positive feedback about his attitude and gestures (although John Abraham, Vivek Oberoi & Ranbir Kapoor may not nod in agreement)

there are many more things about this legendary yet misunderstood character which may never come to light..

To add to the list, Sh Sh Sh Sh Sh Shah Rukh "Mayur" Khan has been replaced with "Mayur" Salman Khan.. PERFECT FIT !!
