The Day The Earth Stood Still

After loads of speculations I eventually decided to pen
down my experience when the earth stood still....

Yes ! ...... its the movie itself. It all started with the
fractured arm of my friend, my flat mate and me savoring
my elysian day off from work. As I was the most indolent
of them all I was doomed to buy the tickets for the night
show. If god is relentless there are better things to do
than watching movies in multiplexes.To my horror came
the movie Rab ne Bana di jodi with its exhorative promo-
-tions of SRK opening along with ours. I was there staring
at the counter with tons of people waiting to book their
tickets.

Man! now thats population explosion. I stifled my snicker
and floundered my way into one of the lines. Suddenly a girl
joined the line, a bit confused seemed apparent. With the
world so big and people so close she found her soulmate,
Auntyji , searching for the same cause yes you guessed it
right ..... Rab ne bana di jodi's correct counter...

The scene was going in the background when spotlight fell
right on me. Are we in the right line? Well I had minuscule
clue what they wanted but I was indeed enthralled by the
camaraderie. Instantly I was in a group of 'we' rather than
me standing alone. I suavely replied of the line being only
for the advance booking and me not for RNBDJ; as it might
have been of her interest. Well both ensuring where to go
made a beeline to the next queue for current show. With all
these drama around I finally got the ticket for the movie.
I wondered was it worth all the trouble. hell yah! not for
the movie but for the joke of a lifetime to follow!!!

We were there in the hall, cozy in our seats sipping coffee
when two genius joined us. They started arguing that one of
our seats belonged to them. Dude now this is hilarious, how
could we both have same seat number. The dude instantly out
of his sheer briliance unraveled the mystery and gave us the
irreproachable suggestion. Let's shift for the time being to
the next vacant seat. Sure! who wanted to squander the
moment on some needless discussions.

The first few mins with keanu Reeves amidst great snow and
an arcane shiny lump was about to take us into paranormal
world when we heard the familiar sound! The sound of our
genius confused friends ...... abe SRK kab ayega ! well we
couldn't stop laughing. Dude! its not RNBDJ ..... sry boss
mistake ho gya!They indeed realized quickly within 10 mins
of movie completely running in English.With no name of SRK
in the starcast but still hopeful of seeing their hero
truly amazes the love we share for our stars :)


Rest of the movie disappointed us completely with no story
but we did thank our prodigious friends for giving a great
start to the movie with his SRK joke !
