I wonder if he was really a salesman (10 mins selling 1 anti-aging cream), probably just a poseur :-)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7861627.post-28058539678627930792007-11-08T13:24:00.000-08:002007-11-08T13:24:00.000-08:00Hi, Parth!Just wanted to wish you a happy Diwali a...Hi, Parth!<BR/><BR/>Just wanted to wish you a happy Diwali and enjoy the movies! I honestly don't know if I can do both movies on the same day, but I am going to try! :) If I had to choose between the two it would "Saawariya" but I'm in the minority, everyone else seems to prefer the SRK one.Lotus Readshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02081192215823615529noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7861627.post-76260303582195423232007-11-02T11:24:00.000-07:002007-11-02T11:24:00.000-07:00@Pallavi: Der aaye, durust aaye.

Check the humor/fiction sections. Guilty as charged though when it comes to the fact that I am thoroughly biased towards this format of having a surprise at the end.<BR/><BR/>@Radha: I'll take you word for it :-)<BR/><BR/>@Sanjay: The characters are merely props for this setting. It could well have been a man selling acne medication to a teen. I needed the two of them to set my story up :-) <BR/><BR/>@Lotus Reads: Thanks :-) Waiting for that blog post to happen.
