Kolkata is likely to feature prominently on this blog, just as it is likely to feature the personal preferences - as far as films, books or music or other finer aspects of life are concerned.

Happy 44th Birthday, Aamir!!!!
Aamir Khan, the most consummate lead actor in Hindi films today, never fails to create news and sometimes has had immense fan following all through. He has broken grounds with his films in the recent times, and some of his films have undoubtedly become trendsetters among the masses, while some of them will always remain the moot-point in the serious discussions on films. On this day, this star-actor turns a year older, and I salute his prowess & his proficiency!
Recently, Aamir Khan has been declared as the most powerful man in the Mumbai film industry, but Aamir, being Aamir, has commented:
“I am not really interested in power. I think it's important to know what one can really do with the power. According to me, power is how one uses it. I can be very powerful but if I can't use it for any good or can't contribute to the industry then I am actually powerless. I would like to use my power by working with new directors, giving new actors to the industry and making experimental films.” [Filmfare Power List, for the year gone by.]
Aamir loves to be the chameleon, playing diverse characters, in diverse get-ups, and here's doffing our hats to his latest avatar as an elderly Sardarji, for the Tata-Sky commercial.
Happy Birthday, Aamir! May all your dreams come true..... here's wishing you all the best for all your future endeavours!

As a birthday treat to himself Aamir Khan reportedly took two evenings off from work this week and attended the classical music concerts of Zubin Mehta and the Viennese Philharmonic Orchestra with virtuoso Chinese pianist Lang Lang! That's why he is leagues ahead of the rest, he does everything with a difference; not because he wants to make a statement or something, but because he ia really hatke (different)!
He is currently shooting for Rajkumar Hirani’s film '3 Idiots', and I am eager to catch it later this year, it is supposed to release in winter.
Aamir, as you have rightly pointed out, being AAMIR, will cut a birthday cake today... but he’s not going to be having any, as he's on a diet!!!!
On the Power Listing Number One position, he has rightly remarked that "power comes from inside you, it’s got nothing to do with fame and wealth, and it does not matter how powerful you are... how you use what little power you have in trying to contribute to society is where your strengths lie."
At this stage of his life, he is all geared up for fresh challenges, for adding newer dimensions to his career as an actor-director-producer, and - most importantly - we can hope that he will charge us with his ideas (his latest contribution being that in the TOI Lead India Campaign)!
Dear Aamir,
A Very Happy Birth Day to U!:)
i wish you all the best in your life and may happiness always comes to your way...
love... :)
The new look of Aamir Khan - as the old Sardarji - just rocks!
I was pleasantly surprised to read the interview of the Ace Khan in The Times of India, on the eve of his 44th birthday. Aamir Khan showed the world that even when he lifted the veil from his so called reticent soul, he could be a perfect gentleman!
