These are a few of my favorite things

Tags

books, fun, movies, music, tag

I have been having a bit of a writers block… inspite of having so much to write can get to write anything so when I saw this on Preeti’s blog I thought may be it will break it 🙂

So here are the rules

1.The tag has three parts..Movies,Music, Books/ Authors.

2.Write a movie, book and author with each alphabet of your first name. The book, movie or song should be one that you really liked. If you say why it  matters to you, it would be great! We will all discover new songs, movies and books this way.

3.Tag as many people as there are letters in your name. (if your name has 4  letters, you have to tag 4 people and so on)

4.Mention that the tag originated here and link back to this post 🙂

5.Copy paste these rules 🙂

My Name – everyone knows Monika….

Movies

Meet the Parents – I just love the movie and its one of those movies I can see over and over again

Omkara – I think one of the best adaption of a book ever. Vishal Bhardwaj is a star and I think every one in that movie acted just brilliantly

Notting Hill – Its a totally awwww inducing movie isn’t it?

Ishqiya – So clearly see a Vishal Bhardwaj fan here… 🙂 I think this was the first movie in which I thought its possible that anyone can over shadow Naseer but both Vidya and Arshad did… and what songs love them

Kings Speech – Saw it recently and I think it was lovely

A Beautiful Life – The movie (as well as the book) moved me even motivated me… lovely

Music

Michael Jackson – there was none like him, there will be none like him 🙂

O P Nayyar the music director who used to weave magic

N…. yes yes I am talking about my hubby I love it when he sings… 🙂 go awww now

Iktara – goonja sa hai koi iktara… a song which I have loved for the longest time ever…..

Killing me softly with his song…. Struming my pain with his fingers , Singing my life with his words,  killing me softy with his song,  telling my whole life with his words killing me softly with his song… how romantic and Roberta Flack absolutely rocked this mushy number

Asha Bhosle – I love her love the verstality and some how I have always loved her more than Lata

Books

Mahabharata – I dont think there is a book like that anywhere else… Palace of Illusions is my favorite book, I am reading Jaya next and now I am on a mission to read it every version and adaptation of that possible 🙂

One Flew over the Cuckoo’s Nest – A book I can read any number of times

Namesake by Jhumpa Lahri – I think this was the first book I read of hers and quite liked it

Interpreter of Maldies…. I actually didnt like it too much but cant think of anything else right now 🙂

Kite Runner – A story which touched me deep and left a mark forever

Amitav Gosh – My most favorite India Author, what story he weaves by the way when is the second one his trilogy come, the one next to Sea of Poppies?

I loved doing this, the names I have mentioned might or might not be my most favorite I just wrote what came to my mind without thinking much 🙂

And anyone who wants to do this please take it up
