You are ignoring one impoortant fact. Rahul Dravid has been scoring
runs, plenty of them. Give it to him. So are the others. Laxman, Sehwag,
Ganuly, Tendulkar, Yuvraj, even Parthiv have been scoring runs. Plenty
of 'em. Give it to them also. But Shah Rukh Khan has been giving
super-duper-bumper hits when no one else in the industry is able to
assure even an average grosser. There is that bit of difference between
RD and SRK fans. The RD fans are gloating over an also ran, the SRK fans
are gloating over a genuine performer. The SRK>=AB scenario is not too
bad given that context, certainly not as bad as you make it sound
(equating it to RD>SRT discussion).

OT BS

Hai Ram,

Thanks for your thoughts. I enjoyed your performance in Darjeeling earlier this
afternoon. For obvious reasons, I couldn't see you crying at the beginning of
the show - but it was really unrealistic. I mean, did you have a *** in
your lower lip? Can't you at least show some emotion when your father is unwell?

Anyway, I think you're best sticking to singing songs for Sushmita Sen. Your
Cricket knowledge is as good as your taste in films. (Did you know Tendulkar
hasn't yet scored 1000 runs in wins away from home?)

And good job you didn't try going for Amrita Rao in the film - she's waaay out
of your league. What a smile ... what moves ... she reminds me of a slimmer Rani
when she dances. You're better off sticking to a washed up slapper like Miss
Chandni, with her big nostrils, hirsute face and male eyes. She's a nice girl,
though - fills her tops very well.

by going onto servers where you can't see my IP address. It wasn't a bad film,
but hardly particularly good..
