All hail Amala Paul

I have always wanted to blog about this phenomena I am about to blog about. I never really got around to blogging it due to my recent, tightly packed schedule. So enough beating around the bush, I am already getting hyped up,straaaaaaaight to the topic yaar. ∂єєριкα ρα∂υкσηє + ρяιуαηкα ¢нσρяα = αмαℓα ραυℓ So it can unequivocally be assured that if Piggy chops/Priyanka Chopra and Deeps/Deepika Appunene Padukone had a lovechild, it would be no other than.........
HAUUUUUNNNNN..... Ahem.. So let us dissect her facial anatomies to conclude what makes her so intriguingly similar to both these actresses. Intriguing because if I put Priyanka and Deeps side by side, I wouldn't be able to spot any similarities,sure as hell. Besides their dusky skin tone,zilch similarities.
See ^ no similarities right? So how come the ballyhoo on amala paul looking like em both? Well let's start further analysing. Amala has a ROOOOUND face. Priyanka chopra is the epitome of round face,I mean it's like Brahma took the template of the moon and created her face. Well let's see what else makes her look like Pee Cee. Both of them have got pouty, thick lips. I think it's pretty much,the fleshy face and other details which contributes to their physical similarity. When they wear their hair in the same manner complementing their round face, it atrributes to the resemblance. Here is an exemplary picture where they could bloody well be twinnies .
WOAH Doppelgänger ALERT! (even captain is shaaacked)
Now, let's move on to Deepika Padukone. Okay this is where I am going to talk about the two types of teams that exist when deciding who Amala Paul does look like. I have met people who steadfastedly claim that Amala Paul resembles Priyanka chopra more. Then there's the team which loyally 'stands in one leg'(translate to Tamil) that Amala Paul resembles Deepika closely.
Personally, I think that Amala bears a closer resemblance to Deepika Padukone. And here are the reasons WHY I think so.Starting out with the obvious, BOTH have dimples.Though Am's has one-sided dimple and Deepika's dimples appear on both cheeks and are deeper. They also share the same BIG eyes. Remember Deepika's enchanting eyes in 'Om Shanti Om'? According to Wiki, Amala Paul's eyes were so alluring in her 'Deiva Thirumagal' scenes,that film critics loved her. To be more specific, this is what was told "her expressive eyes help her leave a mark in a small but important role". So there... it can be resolutely said that they both have uh...eye-catching eyes! So there's the other similarity. To sum it all up in an image,see below. I bet there are other photographs which would better highlight their likeness buuuuut this is the best I could do.
So there you go! If you happen to strongly think she looks like either PC or Deeps, please calm you tits. I mean after all, she is Quasi Priyanka Quasi Deepika. To conclude this post,I would like to say that I would love to see more of Amala Paul. I mean she's just a year older than me and her screen presence is already so sizzling;) Like that 15 year old kid who I overheard saying to his friend," I dunno how to put it da,there's just something about her,She's like ...special", I also think that way. I also strongly believe that she would go a LOOOOOONG way. She's already endorsing quite a number of brands. There was the wave of 'Tamannah','Nayanthara','Shreya'which ebbed away. I think the current fad girls are 'Hansika' and 'Kajal'.Though I like Kajal or loved her at one point of time, I don't really find anything outstanding about her now. Being a Tollywood fan, I ensured that I saw all her movies but now I dunno man....DIGRESSING!Okay point is,let's just pray that Amala Paul's here to stay. Before I say Taa-Taa ,here is a photo spam of my A-mallu Paul.

'Pizza' Tamil movie Review

So this post would be my thoughts on the Tamil movie 'Pizza'. I happened to watch the teaser trailers while lazing on my couch last Sunday afternoon. It was made on a shoestring budget and raked in many positive reviews as well as $$. So when I was watching snippets of the movie being shown on TV, it got me interested, However, it wasn't compelling enough to make me want to watch it. The screenplay seemed terse and somehow,laconic. The teaser gave me the idea that 'Pizza' was a 'horror movie told in an artsy way' kind of film. But thank goodness, I watched it yesterday on DVD. No wonder, the film received many rave reviews.
It was a pleasant surprise and refreshing to watch. I realised that I couldn't leave my seat. The movie though of horror/thriller genre,lulled me to a stillness. Heck, even my parents and I were calmly seated at our couches watching the plot unravel.
There were unexpected twists in the movie.What was made to be a convincing story actually reveals to be something more. A combination of both horror and interesting plot, the movie was a deviation from the normal psychological thriller type. During the movie, I was already making up theories and several plausible endings in my head. But none,I tell you was close enough to how it really ended.The last scene though was an irony and I found it funny. Don't want to say too much or this review have to be renamed 'Pizza' Spoilers.
What I like about this movie was that, it didn't have to have sleazy scenes or raunchy dance numbers to promote it. The story itself,does more justice.Though I think the screenplay and the narration could have been improved on, it is an appreciable attempt by debutant director,Karthik Subbaraju.It is being remade in Bollywood and there are talks that Hollywood producers might make an adaptation of the film. Our thalaivar,Sir Rajini Kanth was impressed by the movie as well.So you do the math. All in all, an interesting movie, a GOOD watch! I suggest you go rent it as soon as possible or borrow it or whatever. Just watch. My ratings... 3.8/5
