Pratik informed by an email today that IPLKhabar.com  is providing bal to ball coverage, scores, news and views on IPL world in Hindi. Now that is quite a news because despite all threadbare coverage including from fakeplayer, Hindi world was forced to digest the firang version. Till now I am not sure if it is venture of Pratik himself or Pratik just announced it but it is important nonetheless. It is however saddening that due to discriminatory policies of adsenses regarding language, IPLKhabar is not getting paying adsense revenue but showing public service ads only thereby making this venture commercially unviable. Hope Google will get wisdom soon.

I’ve not tested the ball to ball coverage aspect that I will today when my dear Delhi daredavil will meet the facinating Deccan Chargers today. If IPLKhabar is taking pains to do the ball to ball coverage in Hindi by itself then it is big big thing and they deserve good revenue from it, may be they should head to non google ad services.

Now while Malvika at HT reported that someone is blogging the dirty secrets at IPL, the whole net is going awry to find the dirty blog :)-

A blogger, who calls himself IPL anonymous, is digging up dirt on players, owners and coaches. Fakeiplplayer.blogspot.com is where the off-pitch action is. The blogger, who claims to be a part of the Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR), could be a player or a crew member. But he’s bringing the aankhon dekha haal from inside the dressing rooms and the bedrooms.

This blog has become a hit in no time. with really dirty yet funny nuances. mandira may (not) mind -

At least Sandy Baddy Babe has a few tricks up her sleeve to distract the viewer from what she says.

Anyway the Cricket league is forced to rely on these non cricketing stuff afterall rain isn’t allowing much cricket otherwise.

The inaugral day at T20 was dissapointing for finalists of last edition. Pratik in his post which is the only post so far from Hindi blogworld. What is intresting is the fact that the Premier League is obviously not just cricket. It is all about cheerleading and the the dog intrusion into the field. Yes bollywood is invading the field  and there are words that Dhoni’s beloved is likely to be present.

Next days match are among Delhi Daredavils vs kings of Punjab.   Kolkata Knight Riders vs Deccan Chargers. Match is vailable Live on Sony SMax. and live on Cricinfo as well.

Not quite!! The blog is same as we pointed earlier. News is that Rahul Upadhyay, who is originally from Ratlam has decided to stop requesting Amitabh to write in Hindi, and do it himself. So now on whenever Amitabh writes a blog, rahul takes it upon himself to spend a few hours and translate the blog at his own. Quite simple isn’t it.

Is it copyright violation? I don’t think so mainly:

Because Rahul has informed Bachchanji that he is translating the blog only till Big B has any problem with it, or BB want to do it himself.

Also because as per the prevailing practice Rahul is giving proper link and credit to what he translating. Every post is nothing but a fan’s admiration. and mind it Amitji in his last post paid gratitude to fans, like Rahul for making the Chhora of Ganga Kinaare, what he has become_ BIG B

YOU that spend your precious time in reaching out to me and extending your love and affection. Acknowledging my presence in your lives. Correcting the wrongs that I do. Suggesting, applauding, laughing and crying with me. I am deeply indebted to all.

YOU have become my strength. My weakness too. I think of you throughout the day. What will please you, what will entertain and enlighten you. How should I connect with all, how can I make my comment today interesting to read. How can I respond and reply to the hundreds of those that write in to me.

YOU are an extension of my self. You share my grief and exuberance. My dress and my travel. My moods and idiosyncrasies. My beliefs and my relations. My work. My rise and my fall.

YOU are my alter ego. I disclose much to you. Much that I would perhaps have never done before.

YOU have gained my trust and faith and friendship and I your devotion.

YOU are unique to me. In word and in spirit. Together we have built a world of our own. A small world, albeit. But one that encompasses a large emotion.

BTW to read in Hindi what Amitabh write in English (language he can talk in, he can walk in…)  Just Click here.

Kabadkhana may sound absurd to you but if you are Hindi Blogger then you know that it is gem of a blog. In a recent post Sidheshwar dug out a fact that we were not aware at all. Sidheshwar points out that it was Amitabh Bachchan’s “Trishul” where the word “Computer” got mentioned in a Bollywood dialogue for the first time. Amazing fact, Isn’t it?

Trishul was released in May, 1978. PC was nowhere to be seen yet (I touched  computer in 1989, owned one three years later) so Bollywood should be considered well advanced that they used “computer” (though only word) in 78. Anyways if you are interested the Hero called his secretary a computer and when she wondered “what the hell is that”, he explains it is a machined invented in west that can do all calculation and typing correctly..huh not bad for a guy of seventies, is it. some 25 years later this very angry young man was asking this machine..Lock kiya jaye…

When Hindi Blogosphere ties to be intellectual (or serious), no matter how well it try...it looks unconvincing. At best it resembles the Amar Singh defending the 'deal'. But we Hindites are their best self when they are informal or satirical. Our own Peeping Pangebaj is doing sting after sting by binging out the love letter series. latest in the series is a loveletter from Medico. We all know of a doctor from Meerut who is referred here, but that later. This doctor writes a letter in his horrible hand writing like any other doctor. The letter itself becomes the Vinci Code. Doctor himself understand that he will not be understood that well...so he writes to her sweetheart to refer the letter to Chemistwala (and mind it he write this instruction too in same horrible handwriting) :))

News of the letter that Arun got is  flashed on Blogworld several helping hands are offered. Finally 106 years old Dr Vidyasagar who runs fulltime charity of reading doc's loveletter finally translates the letter for larger good. Suspense still looms large that whether recipient actually tied knot with the doc or chemistwala (letter is found at the doc's place... how come)

Ha Ha Ha.. Its witty very witty.

Sarkar Raj is out and is critical for Ram Gopal Verma, after a flop Hat Trick as Manmeet Singh Points out in review at his blog on WebDuniya. Going by the opinion of Singh the Movie is 'Lajwab', even if it seen in sequel to Sarkar I, it is better made.

Honestly I ma not a movie freak, writing this blog primarily because I when I tried to look at Hindi Stuff on this movie I realised on happy note that now a lot of professional portals are writing in Hindi atleast on commercially viable topics. It gives a lot of elbow space to Hindi Bloggers as they can write what they want rather then putting their efforts to bridge some gap in ought to be written and being written, market is taking care of itself now. Besides I am also skeptical whether blogs like Manmeet's is there on aggregators..I mean the ones at WebDuniya and Adda like platforms..If they are..very good, if not better because it mean that Hindi blogs can now survive without aggregators.

Coming back to movie...Singh is all praise for Abhishek, this time for a change small B is being praised for his work..So go and watch SR.

In another relevant post Girindra informs the blog world about grand première of Sarkar raj at iifa awards.

Ajay Brahamatmaj in the latest post at Chavanni Chap brings an interview with none other than Aishwarya Bachchan. The beauty of this interview is the delicate handling the professional and personal of the celebrity. The actress, the daughter, daughter in law and the Wife is reflected with full impact, yet the very feminine self is untouched. Kudos to Ajay for this nice interview.

Not that Ajay leaves Aish unprovoked... soe doubt is surely casted by refering the work in initial movies of Aish as chance granted but Aish is as sharp as she is beautiful to notice and refute it.

Yet the big point of the interview is feel of Aishwarya Rai's relationship with big big family members. Amitabh, the Jaya and the Abhishek... and surely big she is as well... so many bigs at the same dining table atleast once a day as a matter of rule. Big eg sailing smooth. And surely as Hindi Blogger I am happy to hear that they are supposed to talk Hindi at the daily great meal.

Ajay Brahamatmaj in his latest review of Ghatothkach is direct and blunt. This new venture by a Srniwas fails on most account. The mythological character of Ghatothkach who was son of Bhima and Hidimba in Mahabharata is drawn as more of a cartoon rather then mythological character of valour and power. Ajay is of the opinion that animation movie brings forward the reality of animation boom. Movie makes fun of the character and turns it into a carricature of otherwise a very potential character. Review do not analyse the technical performance and effect but it can be assumed that movie is unlikely to do well among children.

Two Stars I guess.
