KANK Anyone???

As Hindi moviers waited with their bated breath for Kabhi Alvida Na Kehna(KANK) for quiet sometime, I feel it is a word adding into dictionary.

I havent watched it yet but I dont have any comments on to watch or not but however I heard few comments passed on movie so I am going to bloggercize here..

Quiet a few movies have been having Adultery in their agenda however what we see in Kank is little different and goes little further . The movie hopes to resolve marital tensions by letting spouses see others while staying married and ultimately getting out of marriage and finding Love again, I thought that was called adultery and whatever happened to never expiring contract or "Not Part Until death". No this is not got anything to do with Western influence.

However as I see both the couples walk out of marriage and find another life or wife to live, I am going to call this process a kank. Yes a new word , a new definition to adultery...

I hope this word gets around and you will know where it all started from ;-)

FIFA World Cup

World Cup fever is on and has been on for quiet some time, lots of people have been cashing on predicting next world cup winner. However for those die hard fans or Brazil or Argentina the last of the two latin American countries to be elliminated in round of 8 making it a all European clash. I like the theme for the worldcup this year "No to racism". With $289 million in prize money to be won makes it interesting not to notice the theme.
Every worldcup we have an underdog making its way until round of 4 and disappearing, Will Portugal do it this year to be the first non world champions to win World cup? Every country has to do it first time atleast once, why not portugal, however watching them play I think they have been lucky to be in semis while on the other hand France looks like a team to bet your money on, what will results be let time reveal it...
Good luck Germany, Italy, France and Portugal(No Particular order or ranking but in the order they qualified) GO FIFA, NO TO RACISM...
Worldcup reigns, win some loose some such is the game...
