The Greatest Movie EVER Made

After the recent success of superhero movies like Then Avengers, Iron Man Trilogy and The Dark Knight Trilogy and the immense interest in Man of Steel, the Hollywood studio heads had a secret meeting. All the studio heads wanted to make a multi-billion dollar grossing 3D movie which would even be critically acclaimed. They decided to make a worldwide movie with actors, directors and musicians from all over the world and wanted the accomplished writers of Hollywood to pen down the script.

And to hype the movie, a worldwide contest was held where the winner would be involved in the entire movie making process from start to end. And guess what, yours truly won this contest.

And so I have been attending every meeting along with the studio heads. The final writers selected for this dream project were Roman Polański, Christopher Nolan, Quentin Tarantino and David S. Goyer.

The story was finalized and it took the writers only a fortnight to get the first draft of the script ready. It was going to be a sci-fi, western, romantic movie with elements of supernatural and time-travel. After the disastrous response to Cloud Atlas, the writers left no stone unturned to make this an epic script.

Now the studio heads and the writers decided to contact the directors who could do justice to this epic script and start casting accordingly.

So it’s been almost two months and the entire cast has been finalized except for the part of the actor in the leading role. The final list was as follows:

Nostalgia

“Sadaf, what's Ylang Ylang?"

Sadaf glanced up from the test papers that she had been correcting and saw her younger sister who looked confused sitting on the rocky chair.

Zoya was twenty three years old and had lost her eyesight a year back. It had taken her few months to fully cope with the blindness and get on with her life. Sadaf had given Zoya refuge in her home when her fiancé broke up their engagement.

"Ylang Ylang? It's a perfume tree valued for its fragrance."

Zoya seemed to think about this for a moment. "Oh. What does it smell like?"

"It smells like..."

Sadaf brushed a kiss over her cheek, closing her eyes for a moment as a flowery scent wafted over her.

"Ylang Ylang?" Sadaf asked, stroking her soft hair, the source of the fragrance. It must be her shampoo.

She nodded.

"Sadaf?"

She blinked, having momentarily forgotten that her sister was still there.

"I'm sorry. You asked about Ylang Ylang, right?"

"Yes. What does it smell like? Jasmine? Rose? Lily?" Zoya asked.

"It smells really nice. Not exactly like any other flower. It's different."

"What do you mean by different?" Zoya asked.

Till Death Do Us Apart

Shawn was an enigma to Ariana.

From the second he met her, he managed to crawl his way right into her heart, where he resided peacefully and comfortably.

It started off cold, with her rejecting him at first, thinking he was nothing but a crazy fool who had literally put his own life in danger just so she'd agreed to go out with him.

She still remembers the conversation that happened.

'If you're expecting me to go out with you, then I'll have to tell you straight. You are not the right guy for me. I want a man, not a boy who thinks he can... Now let go of my hand. You are not the right guy for me.'

But then Shawn did the most bizarre thing ever which made her changed her mind. He jumped off the seat of his car and started crossing the crowded road backwards, with the vehicles driving by, just looking at her and asking her to go on a date with him.

She had no other option but to accept his request. She had no idea though that her life had changed forever with her acceptance.

Red

The start of a storm
Months and months of violence
Fiery Red Sky
Peace returns after the war
Drowning hope everywhere




NOTE: Tanka is a Japanese poem consisting of five lines, the first and third of which have five syllables and the others seven.

Alone

I can't take it anymore
It's beyond my comprehension
I copulate with my hand
Pretending that it is you
But it ain't you and I suffer
My bed is a proof of my
Fantasies unfulfilled
Lust insatiable
You alone could fathom
The danger of my yearning
The rage of my wish
My mind is laded
With our visions of
Intertwined embrace
Unifying our
Blood, sweat, tears and cum
Until we are one
Forever, night after night, alone
I copulate with my hand
Pretending that it is you
But it ain't you and I suffer
I know I cannot have you
All I have is ME

WeChat With Anyone, Anywhere!

Indiblogger has given me an opportunity to speak with five different people, dead, alive or fictional, using WeChat and I’ll use this opportunity to call those five people, whom my autistic younger brother always wanted to speak with, in order  to convince them  to come to my younger brother’s 14^th birthday.

Everybody has a hidden desire to connect with their role models, who have inspired them to do something big in life and lead a healthy and happy life. My brother’s choice of role models may sound a bit childish. But they have inspired him and taught him to never quit and fight for his rights, to make others happy, to be obedient and many other things. The five people I would talk to on my WeChat group are as follows:-

Catharsis

Silence.

Pitch black darkness.

Except for a circle of blinding light in the middle of the room. And at the center of illumination a man, chained to a platform, with electrodes all over his body.

He is naked. Stripped off all clothes.

He has 'The Fringe' haircut.

The silence is shattered by the steps of heavy boots as a figure steps into the light from out of the shadows. Dressed in a black cloak, he leans forward and smiles at the prisoner.

“Good evening. You can call me The Shadow. And you are looking at your downfall.”

The prisoner looks up and can see anger and hate in the eyes of his captor.

Holding up a newspaper The Shadow reads:

If you are sick and tired of watching Justin Bieber all over the place, then beware you are suffering from Bieber Fever.
So get set to learn music form the Justin Bieber School of Music, wear your love for him by buying dresses from his clothing line, get a recording deal under his music label, spend quality time with your close ones at his chain of restaurants and pit your talent against others in his reality shows.

“Justin Bieber as a brand is a 'cute and talented' person and wants to work hard and continue to do so,” Bieber said.

His fashion label, designed along the lines of his songs, kicks off with T-shirts that will hit the local stores soon.
Bieber will also starting his own line of salons whose branches will be opened in all the major countries.

The Shadow stares straight into the eyes of his captive.

“So Bieber, why don’t you start by telling me about this Bieber Fever— this huge conspiracy to corrupt the youth of the world? You think I don't know that when a man or a woman buys a Bieber T shirt, they actually sell away their souls to you? You think I am unaware that you are trying to start a new cult? That these so-called Schools of Music are nothing but devious churches whose only job is to preach that there is only one true saviour- the 'cute and talented' Justin Bieber? What were you going to call your followers? Your Biebs?

85th Annual Academy Awards (OSCARS 2013) Predictions

85^th Annual Academy Awards (OSCAR 2013) Predictions

So in less than 24 hours, the 85^th Annual Academy Awards will take place and all the built-up mystery and goosebumps will be over. Every year I predict the OSCAR winners and I always get the best supporting actor right. But this time around, the competition has been very difficult and I’m actually glad to have seen such wonderful performances this year. ‘Argo’ and ‘ZDT’ got the OSCAR snub in the directorial category but, then again, they still are major contenders for the most prestigious ‘Best Picture’ category. Last two years have seen ‘The King’s Speech’ and ‘The Artist’ winning the Best Picture award but this time around it might finally be the year when a box office favorite wins the acclaimed award.
