‘Trashan’

Philip was surprised why he liked Tashan while the rest of the world around him trashed it. So he spent a good two weeks mulling over the reason behind his ‘aberrant response’ to the movie and comes up with answers.

Now that Tashan hunting season is over, I can safely come out of hiding and admit the embarrassing truth. I’m hoping that not many people would think I’m a pshycho for enjoying Tashan. Yes, I read all those scathing reviews of Tashan. Yes, I was fully aware that I was watching a bad movie while the sordid action-comedy-lovetriangle was being played out. When the interval started shortly after the ‘Chaliya’ song, I looked over to Dino who I had dragged along with me and ventured to say something that approximately meant, ‘Not a bad watch, eh mate?’ He glared at me for a full 5 seconds in reply – a look that contained signs of bitter resentment for a wasted Sunday afternoon. I realized then that I was alone in this world when it came to this movie.
