February 2009 - Indian 'OSCARS'

Prelude: After a long time more than a month, updating my Blog. Lots of things as usual, happened around us. Obama Taken oath as President of USA. Slundog Millionaire bagging the awards in the Film Circuit - Golden Globe, Bafta, Oscar Nomination etc., India continuing its winning ways, Next schedule of IPL with KP, Freddie bagging the Million Dollar Rights, the financial scam hitting Cricket also with Sony coming out of TV rights and stanford bank enquiry by US Exchange commission.

OSCARS '09: What a night it was in LA!!!!!!! It was Bollywood all the way. Slumdog Millionaire bagging '8' Oscars with our own A.R. Rahman bagging '2' and Resul Pookkutty '1' for Sound Mixing. A day before 'OSCAR' night nobody knows who is 'RESUL POOKKUTTY' now 'Kerala' claiming as its own. Anyway, ARR taken the HOLLYWOOD by storm. Everybody talking about ARR. Three cheers to him and Hats off to him. What a Movie it was!!!!!! and ARR had done an excellent job - reall he deserves it. Moreover, what a speech he gave.. Man, he never ceases to amaze. Humility personified.

Sports: Another series has started. And as usual India is showing that they are poor starters to an Overseas tour. Lost the first 2 twenty twenty matches to Kiwis. Now, the real test for MSD has come, how he is rejuvenating the Indian team from the loss is to be seen. Another absorbing series is going on in South Africa with Aussies , if Aussies loses then the Test mantle No.1 goes to Proteas.. Real test of character for Proteas and Real Test of character which Aussies have never experienced.. It is a series to be watched, analysed and enjoyed. England Vs West Indies - Lots of Drama , england losing the 2nd test match by a huge margin, 3rd test match abandoned within 10 minutes of the start of Play, with the reason being poor ground conditions... What is ICC going to do? Football: with ManU having a great time - winning all matches in all competitions going for '5' trophies, worth following their matches... Chelsea - another manager change , GUUS Hidding now in charge.. Tennis : What a win for Nadal, Now life is being on a harsh note for Federer. How he is coming out is worth a wait and watch!!!!!!!

Official: Lots of things are happening. Good opportunities. Let's see what is in store? Putting all our efforts - more than double our efforts!!!!!!Dubai is struggling to cope up with the problems. Abu Dhabi is sailing in Smooth waters atleast now.
