It was one of those days. My fridge was filled with a little bit of this and a little bit of that and it was time to get a new load from the market. But once you are spoiled for tasty food, eating something regular doesn’t seem very enticing. So I tried to make the best of what was available and cook something to keep my taste buds interested.

And now it is time for our movie. Bollywood movies are mostly run of the mill, although the new ones do try to do something new. It is amazing that with a history as rich as India’s we see very few movies based on India’s History. So when Jodhaa Akbar came along it was a very refreshing change. A. R. Rehman’s music made the movie more interesting and the songs were enjoyable.
