movies, work and long meeting

I watched the movie Ajab Prem ki... recently and I loved the movie. The story is third rate, but the presentation is very very good. Be it the characters, settings, script, actors slipping easily into their characters, or the combination of all these, the movie watching experience was ultimate. some of the scenes were hilarious. And I really really loved Ranbir Kapoor. Amazing screen presence who gives all to the shot being filmed, he should be here for a long time. I also watched Kurbaan and I hated the movie. Apart from the terrorists being hailed as heroes and the movie defending their evil acts, the main actors could not do justice to their roles. I think it was because of director. Sample this. The terrorist gets hit. His estranged wife, who was shown to hate his presence, suddenly becomes caring and then in a bid to appease god, starts praying in a muslim manner while she was shown to be a hindu. bahut hi ghaitya movie :-(
so, watch ajab prem ki gazab kahani and avoid kurbaan.
On work front, I managed to make really really big strides, so that the reconnection thing should be wrapped up in 2-3 days. So much for casino. After Amit left, I was given the charge of poker too. Had 2 meetings with concerned people. Turns out that code changes are almost done. Review has to be done and testing has to be performed. So the next week looks packed. But these projects are moving rapidly towards maintenance mode. Let us see what comes once we reach that stage.
On Friday, I was called in for a meeting. The original purport was to share the estimate of work to be done that Amit was doing. So i assumed 10 minutes at the most. the meeting went on for 3 hours. we touched upon many topics, from the next steps to short term plans, the interest shown by clients. I learnt a lot many things that day about the company and the vision of boss, came out really tired but very very impressed. When you know that the owner has a vision and the commitment to go after that vision, it really puts one's mind at ease. You know that there will be days of struggle ahead, but once you know that there will be someone to back you all the way, you suddenly stop fearing and start believing.
