NOTTING HILL

Today while I was talking to a good friend of mine I was also doing channel surfing & suddenly my eyeballs fixated on Star movies.I had the pleasure to watch NOTTING HILL which is my favourite movie.Notting Hill a fairy tail story of a blue eyed travel book shop dealer William Thacker who accidently meets a gorgeous hollywood actress ANA SCOTT & falls in love.William Thacker extremely attractive,suave,single,blue-eyed,middle aged man with a coveted british acccent who runs a Travel Book store with his frined-cum assistant who supposedly has a homosexual disposition..It has motley of intriguing characters;Thacker's moron flat mate who is constantly doing his acts of asininity vis-a-vis posing for britsh tabloids in his briefs;his meterosexual sister who eventualy falls in love with imbecile flate-mate.William's close buddies;Husband & wife with husband bieng a notoriously bad cook & wife being rendered handicapped by an accident made to sit in a wheel chair for restr of her life.The couple is going through a trauma as they cannot have a baby.William's another friend who happens to be a stock borcker who is Ana Scott was on Britian trip to promote her latest movie which is supposedly set in space;one fine day she decides to have a stroll on streets of london.Enjoying her anonymity she enters a travel book store on notting hill where first encounter of protagonist with the actress is portrayed in a light hearted & romantic manner.While on her trip she goes through experience different shades of life yearning for idyll of life & in pursuit of true love which is hitherto not found.She walked the tight rope with aplomb & adjusted well to sitution managing her celebrity status as well as her anonymus identity.Film is replete with anectdotes & light hearted momentsAll in all an excellent movie & a treat for all movie bugs.

I am going through loads of emotional & mental turmoil.Road seems to be very tough ahead as my exams are hovering overhead & then I have my MBA entrance in b/w.
In general,life is tough for an average middle class indian teenager as our govt doesn't provide us social security.Because of the Globalisation,cultures are getting intertwined and aftermaths are clearly visible as western influence on contemporary youth who are gettin paranoid as they are not able to cope up with this dual lifestyle where they chose to dwell in a liberal way in a conservative society n hence face trauma.In the end biddin adiue's will catch u later to apprise u about more of contemporay INDIAN YOUTH n their TROUBLES.
