Top 10 Aamir Khan Movies – IMDB Ranking

Thursday, January 15th, 2009

Aamir Khan has done about 40 movies. I have seen most of them, especially the popular ones. I wanted to take sometime and find out the top. I trust IMDB ranking to a great extend and hence would be using that as the yardstick.

  • #10 Hum Hain Rahi Pyar Ke – 7.6 / 10
  • #9 Rangeela 7.8 / 10
  • #8 Taare Zameen Par 7.9 / 10
  • #7 Lagaan 8.0 / 10
  • #6 Rang De Basanti 8.1 / 10
  • #5 Sarfarosh 8.2 / 10
  • #4 Qayamat Se Qayamat Tak 8.2 / 10
  • #3 Dil Chahta Hai 8.3 / 10
  • #2 Andaz Apna Apna 8.6 / 10
  • #1 Jo Jeeta Wohi Sikandar 8.6 / 10

Ghajini is at around 15th position. It was good entertainer but no way in the top 10 aamir khan movies. I think I have seen all these movies at least twice. Do tell me if your favorite is not in the list – surprise me.

where is raj thackeray?

Saturday, November 29th, 2008

Mumbai has been burning and the media for once have kept politicians aside and focused on the forces and hostages. Great works by ATS and NSG. The big question everyone seems to be asking in Mumbai is where is raj thackeray.

So where is raj thackeray, really?

Raj thackeray was seen at one of the funeral ceremonies in Mumbai. Guess by now he knows that Major Sandeep Unnikrishnan who lost his life has been part of the Bihar regiment and belongs to Kerala. In fact a major part of the NSG force constitutes of South Indians, people from states like Punjab, Haryana and UP.

Raj Thackeray is seeing India unite in Mumbai. That’s exactly where raj thackeray is right now!

Strange Encounters

Sunday, July 1st, 2007

Have you ever spoken to a stranger in the most unexpected place that kept you wondering all day – not why but how did he do that? Well, I just had one such experience.

I was browsing few books on marketing and entrepreneurs bio-graphies at Landmark bangalore and I heard someone making a remark about the books I was just looking at. He added, “I have recently started reading a few of them and I think they are excellent reads”. I nodded without paying any heed. I first decided to ignore him totally. Why would someone tell me (an absolute stranger) about his reading habits.
