Ghost Rider :spirit of vengeance review

to be honest i did like Ghost Rider to an extent,and it was all in all an average super or anti superhero movie.but whatever expectation was left vanished as an answer to a question vanishes in an examination hall.Ghost Rider Spirit of vengeance is really that awful. from Directors Brain Taylor and Mark Neveldine  who previously worked on films like crank and Crank 2 :High Voltage,you could see many traces of it in the way ghost rider was made.that all in all fast paced action sequences .difference in camera work that has the  doesn’t

Letting off the marines and letting in a big Embarassment

In another big embarrassment to the government and a bigger embarrassment to India the two Italian marines who were on trial for killing of two fishermen from Kerala were sent to their respective homeland Italy for casting their votes have now been protected by their home country and the Italian government have refused to send the marines back to India for trial.

The marines Massimilian Lattore and Salvatore Girone, were part of a Military security team aboard a cargo ship when they opened fire on 2 fishermen they thought to be pirates, and he Italian government argues that the shooting had taken place in International waters hence they be tried in Italy rather than in India. But the Indian side of the story is that the fishermen were killed in Indian waters and they should be tried in India.

Whatever the version of the story that is true the fact remains India, often termed as a soft power has in actuality been too soft on international convicts, and somehow they are able to get away. be it Warren Anderson who was the chairman of Union carbide and had conveniently managed to escape from India and avoid trial that has been going for 23 years now and also Ottavio Quottrocci another Italian  who was involved in the bofors scam also got away without any trial.

Not to sound judgmental but all of these happened during the congress regime, and very conveniently they all have escaped trial in India. the case of the marines in not new, it was bound to happen. We are  no longer a nation to reckon with not that we have been reckoned in the last century but the fact remains is people must be tried and convicted for the crimes committed by criminals and irrespective of their nationality they should be tried and brought to justice. our law and order system is in complete shambles where there has been increasing reports of police insensitivity  on solving cases  be it rape or murder and they well reached criminals get away easily. In all probably the Indian govt might have been pressured to send back the marines by the Italian government and government would most likely have obliged  them .i find it hard to believe that the government did not expect a situation like this to arise .

This is a grim reminder of the state of affairs of our country where in one corner a sepeatist leader openly sharesa dias with India’s most wanted terrorist and arrives back to to face the wrath of the Indian govt by being house arrested. India is soft on everyone be it terrorist or murderers or even for that matter rapists,but is quick to react when somebody voices their opinion on social media website.

Sadly this is the state of affairs of this so called “Banana Republic” now I guess rightly said by the country’s 1st son in law.and now adding diplomatic pressure on the Italian ambassador will do no good .

The Supreme court,the government and India has been insulted, now I’m waiting for ‘Argo part- 2’ to come telling on how  the Indians were conned in order to save two of its marines by Italians.Image

Mirindas new launch ‘mirinda masala’- a disaster

Mirinda recently added two new flavors to its predominantly famous Orange drinks in India “Mirinda Masala” and “Mirinda Mango”.i would be giving my opinions for the masala flavor only.

Pepsi Co. made a brave attempt by bringing in the Mirinda Masala flavor as ‘Masala’ is an ingredient that is quite popular amongst south Asian people,especially among the Indian people.capitalizing on this aspect Pepsi Co. with his product Mirinda ,that already has a garnered itself in the “soft-drinks”category tried to touch a chord with its Indian audience .

Mirinda Masala flavor could have acted as a stimulus for Pepsi co. to broaden its existing market,but rather by just plainly adding Masala to Mirinda wasn’t that a great innovation for Pepsi,as it tastes immensely bad.

at first it would definitely create some inquisitiveness among its consumers as it had happened with me , but lest assured the taste crushes whatever expectations the consumer would have once they tasted it .i personally would not make the same mistake of buying this drink again. With a taste like that i think India’s very own “Banta” that is sold by roadside vendors and is an epitome of an unhealthy drink remains the king and a master of mixing “masala” to an aerated drink,cause it tastes really good.

Pepsi is know to experiment and innovate with its products has has had some very popular extensions to it’s product that became popular in India,like the Pepsi blue campaign that was launched during the 2003 cricket world cup,and its 7up lemon flavor that is still very popular with its consumers,has sadly failed to generate the same level of popularity for its Mirinda Orange Masala flavor.and it should seriously analyze its market and obviously how the product tastes .coming up with a dumb idea to add Masala to its orange drink won’t necessarily help it establish itself in the Indian market and stand out from its competitors.

So Pepsi co. please wake up and take back this highly sour and awfully bad drink off our streets ,we definitely deserve better.
