शादी के side-effects
why are most married guys so dull? even compared to their own self in college or just outta it. (as if my rants were not enough)
पोरगी पटवणे is a passion like no other. some might say "ah, its important but not _that_ important" but thats just crap (and your ego). trust me, you don't realize it until its over. almost every action and every thought has an underpinning of scoring with a hot chick then. and its an almost* perfect passion. its effortlessly natural in its drive, it offers tremendous scope for creativity and courage (u know wht i'm talkin abt ;)) , there is almost universal peer approval (_everyone_ is doing it), excellent reward on success and abundant fun in failures (गम मै रम).
all this slowly withers away after marriage. if you don't have other passions (music/theatre/sports/etc) you are more dull than ever. then these unlucky married dudes try to engage in popular activities (making money/rasing a family/weekend outings/etc), and do them so religiously as to resemble a passion. but they so dearly lack the advantages of a natural one.

"...Some other good friends are in various respects distanced from us. So a lot of times there is this burning desire to do something and talk about "real" issues, do something totally passionately..but there is no company. Doing something passionately is doubly rewarding if you are doing it with like-minded people, and like-or-more-enthusiastic people..."
in college you have individual access to lots of people ( say ~100) on a day to day basis. its comparatively easier to find a group that matches your interests the most. (you might say the same is true for a office, but its not. in an office you are not supposed to form groups according to _your_ interests, are you?)
married people move about in couples. society mandates it. you are not supposed to invite someone somewhere without polity asking if the spouse would like to join (exceptions exists but are typical and typecasted - bar visits for guys, shopping escapades for girls?). i dont see anything wrong in this. most people get married bcus they share a lot of common interests. but no matter how much fun it is in a group, passion is an extremely individual affair. you need _personal_ and good relations with people in the group for it to work. and i think this practice of coupling individuals is detrimental to it.
* almost, only because its slightly more instinctual and non-objective than i would prefer.

"Why do people become dull after marriage?" Main Aur Mrs. Khanna madhe tula hyacha uttar sapdu shakel ;)
Plot
The film is about Samir Khanna (Salman Khan) and Raina Khanna (Kareena Kapoor), their lives as a married couple and the problems that lead Kareena to find love outside the marriage (with Sohail Khan). Govinda, who plays Salman's friend tries to patch things up with the estranged couple.
Kadhi jauyaat?
lagech! as long as the ticket is below 60 bucks. spending anything more on the khan bros is a crime against humanity. :P
