Dhoom Kaboom

Watched Dhoom-2 this weekend. I don't mind it, the mindless masala. Don't know how to bill this blockbuster movie. Lets call it Chicken Tikka Masala. Read somewhere that Tikka Masala, the most popular Indian dish in the 'Motherland' is not an Indian dish at all. It sounds Indian, it tastes Indian but is a western concept of an Indian dish. Like something an Indian chef would make to please his Brit customers. I know it is an International quality movie because they kissed on-screen and there were skinny women in skimpy clothes.

Just for fun, lets imagine Dhoom-2 being made by some other film maker.

Say, if our own beloved Captain Vijayakanth was the cop to whom the International robber A's case was brought:

Some incredibly dumb looking extra: But why, when not even one robbery has taken place in India, and no proof or suspicion that the thief is of Indian origin present, do we break our heads on this case?
Captain: Hey! (Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey!) Do you not know about Indian police? We are the best in the whole world. Even if God himself were to commit a crime, we would go knock on his door the next day with an arrest warrant. The average time the Indian police take to solve a crime is 23.45% the time that Scotland yard takes. Why! if I was asked to find Osama Bin Laden, I would have him behind bars before he can say Al-Qaeda.

If the King of Tikka Masalas, Mr. Karan Johar were to direct D-2

A (in Rio house): Om Jai Jagadish Hare... Swami ...
Sunehri: A thief and, like, a devout thief at that, like, uh? like uh?
A: B'coz one lives away from India doesn't mean one forgets India. I may live one month in Brasil, one in Cairo, one in Korea, another in Johannesburg and travel worldwide but I carry a bit of my own country wherever I go (shows a bagful of Bharat Maa ki mitti). In the heart of hearts, I am an Indian.

btw, heard the Madame Tussads people are very angry that somebody stole Aishwarya Rai's wax statue, chipped-off a few kilos and used it in this movie. Really angry.
