Caught a rather interesting telefilm on Friday on Star One where Pavan Malhotra played a p*** who hunts down a serial killer in a helmet who loves to slow-murder prostitutes. Grisly? Yup, but still gripping. Had seen the same film on Star Plus' Star Bestseller many moons ago.

Better dj vu than dread. That's the feeling I get every time I see Sony's Yeh Meri Life Hai. I mean what were they thinking of when they turned a college-campus comedy into a gharelu socks-bhi-kabhi-stockings-thi saga? The latest twist in the kahani is our Pooja's forced marriage with a man of her father's choice who doesn't show up for the wedding.

Maybe he didn't want to miss Indian Idol. Or maybe the scriptwriter needs a crash course in wedding etiquette. No matter how we look at them, our soaps are turning bizarre by the week, if not the day.
