Dabangg Plot

Robin Hood Pandey aka Chulbul Pandey (Salman Khan) is one crazy cop you don’t want to cross paths with. Pandeyji doesn’t care about the law or the poor or the rich or even himself as long as he gets to kick the bad guys, crack jokes and make oodles of money on the side. His life is all about loving his mother (Dimple Kapadia), hating his step father (Vinod Khanna) and avoiding his dumb half brother Makhi (Arbaaz Khan). Pandey falls in love with Rajjo (Sonakshi Sinha), a local potter woman but she doesn’t reciprocate her feelings as openly as her fearless or ‘dabangg’ suitor and tells him in no uncertain terms that she can’t marry him as long as her drunkard father (Mahesh Manjrekar) lives. While Pandey woos Rajo he incurs the wrath of Cheddi Singh (Sonu Sood), the rising local politician who takes it upon himself to destroy Pandey’s life. The sudden death of Pandey’s mother severs his familial ties and Cheddi uses this opportunity to pit Makhi against his own brother. What Cheddi doesn’t realize is that the bond between the brothers might be stronger than what is seems.

Salman Khan as Dabangg

For some time now a Salman Khan film generates the kind of buzz that none of his contemporaries can even image. Unlike the other Khans who proudly display the tag of thinking actors or even plain media savvy and don’t shy away from going overboard when it comes to promoting a film, Salman never really bothered about anything and that’s perhaps exactly what makes him a darling of the masses. Not that Dabangg is great cinema but truth be told it would have been a mediocre flick had it not been for Salman Khan’s presence.

Think of all the standard ingredients of a typical Hindi masala film of the 1980’s. Now imagine them two decades later and what you get is Dabangg. Abhinav Singh Kashyap’s debut film is an ode to the larger than life heroes, the devil incarnate villains, the good for nothing dimwitted younger brothers, the loving mothers, the nubile heroines, the ironclad fathers and just about everyone who adorned ’80’s Hindi fare. Kashyap manages to round up a pretty decent cast including a stellar Om Puri who shines even in a strangely edited cameo, but more importantly with Chulbul Pandey comes up with a protagonist that is really fun to watch.

Stylized to the hilt and played over the top with caution thrown to the wind, Salman Khan’s performance might not be a master class in acting but it sure is one crazy rollercoaster of a ride. Dabangg’s Chulbul Pandey is highly reminiscent of Vikram’s bravura performance in Samy but barring the mood the two can’t be compared.

Final Words about Dabangg

Infused with adrenalin right from the word go, Kashyap ensures that there is hardly a dull moment in the film. Even in the climax when nothing more can be expected the revelation about his mother’s death has Chulbul so stirred up that his shirt tears by itself! The narrative structure of the film is almost like a western (further aided by background score) or a B film in its execution and while Kahsyap tries to inject some sort of layering in the characters this isn’t a film that is script dependent. The setting of the film might be rustic but even that seems like a concerted effort beyond a point; where in small town India does an earthen pot sell for 250 bucks! For those who have watched Wanted, Dabangg might come across as the former redux with some action sequences, the background score and even shots replicated but what makes Dabangg tick is the sheer audacity of Chulbul Pandey’s character. Some highly nuanced writing that is a throwback to the classical escapist fare of yesteryear commercial Hindi cinema, Dabangg is truly unapologetic and highly enjoyable.

There really are some great 60s fancy dress outfits available nowadays, which are perfect for any retro costume party or even as groovy night club gear. However, although your basic sixties outfit should look good on its own, if you really want to create an authentic looking costume you are going to have to purchase some accessories.

Below are my top accessory tips to turn your basic 60s fancy dress costume into something really believable and, above all, totally groovy.

Accessory Tip 1: Buy a sixties wig

Next to getting the correct sort of footwear, I consider getting the right type of headgear the most important addition to your costume. A sixties wig really will give your outfit that little extra something, you just need to decide which one to go for.

There are a number of great looking sixties wigs to choose from, including 1960s style flick wigs, Cilla wigs, Gamine wigs and, for the really adventurous amongst you, Beehive wigs. Whatever type of wig you decide upon, just make sure it is one that compliments your outfit.

Accessory Tip 2: Get a sixties hat

If you do not fancy getting a wig, then the next best thing is to get a sixties hat. PVC disco hats the same colour as your outfit are always a good idea, or perhaps a Carnaby hat if you are going for the 60’s Mod look. You may also want to consider getting a hat/wig combo, which is a cheaper alternative to paying out on a hat and a wig separately.

Accessory Tip 3: Cover up

The mini-dress plays a big part in the fashion of the sixties and some of you might consider 60s fancy dress costumes to be a little bit too revealing. If you are one of those that would be happier showing just a little bit less flesh, then do not worry there are some great accessories out there to help cover you up, without taking away the sex appeal.

Cute white tanga shorts are great for making sure that your outfit is not too “cheeky”, while white fishnet tights are a sexy way to cover up legs. You may also want to look at getting some long white gloves, which were a popular fashion accessory at the time.

Accessory Tip 4: Make up

It is always a good idea to do a little bit of research and copy the make-up from the time. Most specialist 60’s fancy dress websites will stock the types of lipstick colours worn during the period, as well as supplying large black false eyelashes, which were extremely popular throughout the decade.

Accessory Tip 5: Go-Go Boots

In my opinion, the must-have accessory for any 60s fancy dress costume is a pair of Go-Go boots. These come in a range of bright colours to match your outfit, but personally I would choose a white pair, which will usually go with pretty much any sixties outfit.

Movies are the excellent stress busters that never let you fall prey to boredom. You can enjoy them wherever you want, in a cinema hall, at home on DVD player or online. Whereas these ways accompany varied benefits, they also have certain associated pitfalls. For example, visiting a theater and making all those expenditures on tickets, popcorn and soft drinks could take a heavy toll on your pocket. Likewise, the quality of DVD you play at home may or may not be up to the mark. Interestingly, the freedom to watch movies online without paying single penny sets you free from adopting the first two options. But whether this method is safe or not, let us find out.

Security concerns while watching flicks online:

Like all the other activities you perform online, enjoying online movies as well demands sedate security measures. Unfortunately if you lag behind at any step, you are likely to get trapped in the network of hackers and consequently your computer data could be at grave risk of being stolen. In addition, copyright owners could file lawsuits against you on the offense of copyright infringement. You would definitely not like the idea to get caught amid such hassles, would you?

Suitable protective measures:

With so many demerits of accessing movie websites, and downloading one to enjoy in your free time, you can easily decide to avoid this activity. But if you can bear a little bit patience and follow certain essential tips, protecting yourself from online hassles during your stint with online movies won’t be that hard affair. Below are some important tips in this context:

• Keep distance from unsolicited links that ask you to download your preferred movie, they can trick you to open doors for the malware to enter into your system

• Utilizing a Virtual private network could let you add an additional security layer towards your endeavor of relishing a movie over the internet. It will hide your real IP address with a different IP and hence will keep you anonymous online.

• Browse through websites that allow you to watch or download movies legally. Prominently two types of films fall under this category, viz a viz, public domain flicks and movies that are licensed for online viewing.

Insight into safe film categories:

Public Domain Films: These types of motion pictures are copyrighted but have their links over the web for a very short span of time. You are free to enjoy them through live streaming or by downloading them, to watch later on. These films mostly belong to classic genre and hence could be of interest for a selected category of movie buffs. You may be asked to register with the concerned websites before moving ahead.

Licensed Films: This second category of legal films is duly licensed to be watched online. Compared to the first type, movies falling under this class are latest, laced with superseding sound feature and own high quality graphics. These flicks are often accompanied by short duration commercial ads, which could be termed as one the downsides to this film type. You would not be asked to register while accessing any such site, offering licensed films.

So slatwall can be used to show off a huge variety of products – practically everything, to be honest. However, it is not much use if you don’t know exactly what sort of accessories you can buy for your slatwall to display your wares. Therefore this article will take you through the different types of extras you can buy to make your shop and its products look as good as possible.

Let’s kick off with cards. If you are looking for a great way to display greetings cards and use your wallspace efficiency, it is possible to buy slatwall perspex card racks. Whether you go for a small or larger version, you can line up cards without the need for a large floor unit, and the space underneath is perfect for storing surplus stock neatly. You could even invest in some small drawers to stock extra goods, allowing your staff to re-stock the racks with minimum fuss.

Moving on, we now look at picture displays: in either an art store or a shop selling art supplies, one of the most appealing ways to show off pictures is to have them framed and hanging on the wall. It is probably just as easy to store them in a large rack on the floor, so that customers can flick through it, but if the picture is framed and on display, people can visualise it in their own homes, and may well be more inclined to make a purchase. All it’ll take is a small metal hook that clips easily onto the slatwall.

Furthermore, slatwall can even be used to display mobile phones. You can purchase individual display models, with a berth to fit in a mobile phone, as well as a display card giving information on the phone. This way you can create an attractive display on your slatwall, making it easier for customers to peruse your selection of phones at leisure. This is also a great way to make a sale in commission-based shops, as salespeople will be able to gauge peoples’ interest as they look around. Therefore a simple accessory could be an excellent way to help your retail business make more money.

To prove the versatility of slatwall and its accessories, one only needs to look at the pick and mix boxes. Pic and mix boxes can be used in department stores, in sweet shops, or even in cinemas. They are clear, so it is easy to see exactly what’s on offer in each box, and can be slotted into the fittings, off the floor, so they are also easily arranged, and stacked off the floor. As simple as it sounds, pick and mix display boxes are an excellent way to make a humble array of sweets look even more appealing to people who may otherwise just stroll by.

Slatwall may seem like an innocuous enough product, but it is an incredibly versatile version of shop fitting. With a wide variety of accessories available, you can adapt the fittings to work in any sort of retail business, thus making it a boon for almost any shop.

I’m sure you’ll have heard poker stories like this before…

A gambler is so much into a game but ends up having a bad streak. He loses his cool and is desperate to make a comeback, convinced that the next hand will be THE hand to make him. So there he is, with no more money to put on the table. What does he do? He bets something else of value.

Remember the latest James Bond flick, which I actually labeled a poker movie in an article just recently? Remember that poker game between that Greek guy and Agent 007? The other guy bets his car, sure that he would win. I think it was an Alfa Romeo, I am not sure, my memory is a bit hazy (all I can remember is Daniel Craig as James Bond). Anyhow, Bond wins the hand and the car, of course.

The question is, does this really happen in real life?

You better believe it does!

Check out this news clip from Avanova.com:

A Russian man lost his wife in a game of cards after putting her up as a stake instead of cash. Andrei Karpov, from Murmansk, had run out of money in a game of poker and offered his opponent his wife instead of cash to stay in the game.

When Karpov lost the game and his opponent, Sergey Brodov, turned up to claim his winnings, his wife Tatiana was so angry she decided to divorce her husband and started a relationship with Brodov.

She has since married Brodov, and said she does not regret leaving her first husband.

She said: “It was humiliating and I was utterly ashamed. But as soon as my ex-husband did that I knew I had to leave him.

“Sergey was a very handsome, charming man and I am very happy with him, even if he did ‘win’ me in a poker game.”

Talk about crazy! In this day and age you would think that putting up a person as your stake wouldn’t be possible! When you think about it, though, the whole thing sounds hilarious, doesn’t it? I mean it irks me that a guy would bet his wife as if he “owned” her (as if a person can actually own another person). Then again, the wife leaving him and marrying the other guy – I’m sorry but this just sounds like something out of a soap opera, or something from the Middle Ages!

No wonder people who aren’t into poker see it in a negative light most of the time. When they hear or read news such as this, their eyes probably pop out in wonder, or maybe they shake their head in dismay. Then again, this happened in Russia, where norms may be quite different from that of the US or other European countries. It makes me think of Borat, you know that “Khazakstan journalist.”? It’s like something he would do. I hope that I haven’t offended anyone with my musings in this article. I just found it really hilarious.

So guys, next time you decide to put up your wife as a bet, make sure that you win. Otherwise, you might just find yourself in the divorce courts!

Your daughter is poised to take her first steps.

She’s sitting in the middle of the living room, and rolls forward onto her hands and knees. She tentatively assumes a standing position.

It’s suddenly clear to you that she is about to wobble across the room. You grab your compact digital camera and turn it on.

By the time the camera has powered up, she has already taken a few steps. You point the camera at her, but it can’t focus in the dim living room light.

The moment is over – she’s sitting down again, and you’re left without a photo to show for it.

If you hate missing moments like this, you need an alternative to your compact digital camera. Let me tell you about the benefits of a digital SLR.

SLR Defined

SLR stands for Single Lens Reflex, and there are two big differences between SLRs and compacts.

First, the image that you see in an SLR viewfinder is the image that the camera will take. Second, you can take the lens off the camera and put a different lens in its place.

Besides these two differences, there are many other features that make an SLR ideal for a family photographer.

Instantly Available

You don’t have to wait for a digital SLR to warm up.

Flick on the power switch and the camera is ready to go. You can even leave the camera on all the time if you want to.

Digital SLRs have a “sleep” mode to preserve battery life. Just press a button, and the camera is “awake” and ready to take the next photo.

Even fleeting moments won’t be missed waiting for the camera to start up.

Fast Accurate Autofocus

Digital SLRs have advanced autofocus systems.

They include multiple autofocus points, and they can use any one of these points to quickly focus on your child, regardless of how much he or she is moving around.

There is also a mode called predictive autofocus, which tracks your child’s motion and continuously adjusts to keep the focus sharp.

Larger Sensors

Digital SLR cameras are much larger than compact cameras.

This provides a unique advantage: the photo-sensitive sensor inside a digital SLR is physically larger than the sensor inside a compact camera.

The larger sensors are more capable of producing high-quality images even in low-light conditions.

If you spend a lot of time taking pictures of your child indoors, then you’ll really benefit from the larger sensor size of a digital SLR.

No More Red-Eye

You’ve probably dealt with a lot of red-eye when you’ve used the flash on you compact digital camera.

This is because the flash on a compact camera is close to the lens, and the light from the flash is reflecting off your child’s retina.

Every digital SLR flash pops up far away from the camera’s lens, virtually eliminating red-eye.

Even though it’s easy to fix red eye with today’s photo editing software, is that really how you want to spend your time?

In Summary

If you’re a parent and have been thinking about upgrading your 3-year-old compact digital camera, I urge you to take a good look at the digital SLR models available.

The have come down in price significantly in the past two years, and are now competitive with the cost of compact cameras.

Think about it this way: it’s probably worth the extra money to know that you will never again miss an important milestone in your child’s life because your camera wasn’t ready.

In this article I will first discuss some basic methods about how to tell if someone is lying to you. In the end, you will see the expert tactics used by secret investigation agencies to detect lies, exactly the techniques used by human lie detectors.

Body Language: The body language of the liar gives away. If the person is wringing the hands, playing with things around or touching the hair, the individual is likely to be lying.

Such a person avoids maintaining eye contact for long. If you try to maintain eye contact, he or she will look elsewhere such as the nearby objects.

An obvious way to detect lies is to keep asking the details. The liar will probably not be able to keep up with all the lies. He or she will not be consistent with all the lies and can be caught this way. It is likely that the person does not give you specific details while lying such as persons involved in the story or places visited. The voice pitch is also not normal.

Carefully examine how they are speaking. If they try to relax, breathe deeply or pause before saying something, it is likely that the next sentence is going to be a lie.

A study of eye movements of liars will tell you how their eyes move when they tell lies. It all matters where they look and how their eyes flick while saying something. A liar can be easily detected if he or she suddenly changes the topic of conversation. Or if you change the topic suddenly, the liar will not try to get to the original topic while a truthful person will try to clear up things.

There are certain words that someone telling a lie will use. Sitting or standing posture, anger and avoiding details are other signs of lies. All these are basic methods to tell if someone is lying to you.

These were the basic techniques to find out if someone is lying to you.

There are various Specific Advanced Techniques that can make you a kind of accurate human lie detector. So you will be easily able to know whether someone is saying the truth or not. Life will be much easier after that.

I know how painful it is when your partner lies to you. I must admit that i have experienced it myself and i have used the same techniques to find out the truth for myself.

Bollywood heartthrob Katrina Kaif has become the most searched word on Google. She has become one of the most popular celebrities within a few years. She has very beautiful face, big black eyes, hot figure, awesome body stats, great height, amazing talking and dressing style which has made her very popular.

Katrina Kaif was born in Hong Kong and brought up in Hawaii and London. At 14, she began her modeling career under very famous modeling agency of London, once she even walked on the London Fashion Week. Kaizad Gustad, a London based film-maker saw Katrina on ramp and immediately offer her role in his bollywood flick Boom though Boom was flop but opened a golden gate for Katrina in bollywood. Earlier, filmmakers hesitated to take Katrina in their movies because she couldn’t speak Hindi.

Katrina Kaif’s friendship with bollywood superstar Salman Khan helped her get many movies after Boom and she became the most popular actress of bollywood within few years and most of the movies of Katrina have been very successful on box-office. Indian youngsters have become so crazy for this sizzling hot woman that they send love letters (written with their blood) to Katrina on her every birthday.

Katrina says that these days it’s very tough to be at top because there is much competition and to maintain such a body with many movies in her bag is very difficult for her. She is seen with Salman Khan everywhere in premier shows and parties. Though, she denies to share her private life with media but the whole world has come to know that she has been dating Salman since 2003 and is really fond of him.

Mobile casinos have completely changed online gambling. Mobile devices have definitely become more hi-tech in recent times and online casinos are making the most of it. This is clear as in 2010 the mobile gambling segment is predicted to get to $20 billion.

It’s possible to play all your favorite casino games like video poker, blackjack, craps, poker, roulette, slots, etc., on your mobile devices like a cell phone, wireless tablet PC or PDA. Unsurprisingly, the superiority of the graphics isn’t as good as on online casinos but they are getting better and provide some top notch elements. On certain slot machine games you’re able to shake the device or flick the display screen to spin the reels. With modern tools it will become more enhanced. Nonetheless, in the mean time mobile casinos continue to be uncomplicated and novel.

You need adequate space for storage on your cell phone to download the application, so it’s recommended to check this before. Mobile devices normally have ample memory however if it doesn’t then you can certainly order a memory chip or Micro SD card. Casinos normally provide their services for free in cell but you will have to pay your network provider for roaming and data transfer. If you purchase another mobile device then you might have to update your mobile casino software applications too.

The rules are the same irrespective of whether you are taking part in online mobile casino. Find out if it’s legal to play where you are. Before using any real money it’s a smart idea to play the free mobile casino games. They offer exact same sign-up bonuses like online casinos do.

Before starting, check you have a cell phone that is that will work with mobile gambling. You should be able to get this information from the mobile casino operator but failing that try the mobile device user guide or get in touch with the manufacturer. Try using the game download service from your network provider if they offer one. This is generally a less expensive choice where you are billed a fee each month or per download. If you don’t have this facility ensure that you download mobile casino games from a reputable source. You’ll need to put in your cell phone number prior to using the service. Having done this download and install the games, then open them up to begin enjoying straightaway.

This article is based on my actual experience with the product and is just a little warning about why you should be very wary of using it.

As we all know, the internet is crawling with weight loss programs and dietary systems that promise to totally transform your physique at the flick of a switch, so to speak. With my ever increasing weight problem threatening to take over my life and totally destroy the little self confidence that I had, I decided to take action and stop doing all this “research”, which was actually procrastination.

First of all, let me explain to you what the Strip That Fat diet system actually is. Strip That Fat is both a weight loss program and a diet system put together. The distinction between the two is very important. With most of the other weight loss programs that I have seen on the net, you either get one or the other. But with Strip That Fat you get your weight loss program, which is the e-book that you get with techniques and methods for you to quickly strip fat from your body.

You also get the STF Diet Generator. This is a piece of software that generates a diet for you, but it comes with a difference. You enter the foods that YOU like to eat and it will come back with a diet based on those foods.

While using this I have learnt a lot about eating and how you can eat foods that will help you to lose weight. The Strip That Fat diet system has taught me that I can actually train my body to lose calories. I am not scared to eat the things that I like and the information that I’ve received about how to control the urges of the body to eat has been a very interesting learning curve.

But, in my experience, the Strip That Fat diet system will definitely help in stripping your bank account of your hard earned money, and this is why.

Well, the results that I have obtained from using the Strip That Fat diet system have meant that I have had to spend a gross amount of money on buying new clothes in a very short space of time as my old ones are now too big for me.

This is not an ideal situation for someone who doesn’t earn that much and who has to constantly watch the pennies!

Can’t win them all.
