      Oz, a quick question.

      Are they the movies or the characters in movies? And are thay all Bollywood?

    3. oz on September 7th, 2006 11:06 am

      - Sumeet, they are scenes from movies showing certain characters. You have to identify the movie and the character of that movie. No they are spread all over, not just Bollywood.

    4. Honhaar Goonda on September 7th, 2006 2:04 pm

      S = Thakur from Sholay

      E = Gabbar Singh from Sholay. Amjad Khan

      N = Zanjeer, Pran

    5. sumeet on September 7th, 2006 2:14 pm

      Ohh so, it works this way huh!! and i was thinking that P is for the name of the character in a movie and that character’s pic is in P.. Well in that case i guess it… P has a pic a random pic.. Like, P can stand for Mogambo in Mr.India, and all i have to do is identify the actor and the character he plays in the movie.. Alright.. i am going that way.. unless i am wrong

    6. oz on September 7th, 2006 2:14 pm

      - HG, You got 2 right. Which ones… you’ll get to know on September 30 :) but you can keep trying.

    7. oz on September 7th, 2006 2:45 pm

      - Sumeet, :d ok here’s another attempt to simplify it: Every alphabet in the logo has been cut out from a movie poster. All you have to do is look closely “inside” the alphabet and identify the movie and character that you think you see inside each alphabet.

    15. sophocles on October 3rd, 2006 2:07 pm

      OZ…its 3rd of october….dont tell me there are controversies abt who gets the award….dont tell me (gasp gasp) the secret name was leaked out (omigawd! and its now in the hands of pakistani ISI agents – do we call for gunamster G9 or gopi as he is better know to retrieve the precious envelope?

    16. sumeet on October 3rd, 2006 2:44 pm

      And the winner is……..(:|… Common Oz still waiting!!!!

    17. oz on October 3rd, 2006 2:47 pm

      - Sumeet in his 2nd attempt got all of them right. But since it was his second attempt and since he is an “in house” guy – co hosting desi talk with me… I can’t simply give the award away to him… ummm… on second thoughts he gets all that whenever he visits Orange County.

      Do you guys want to make this quizzing thingy a regular feature?

    18. sumeet on October 3rd, 2006 3:05 pm

      :( ( maine kya Galti ki? But.. \:d/ any time any day… wow.. looking forward for it.

    19. Sophocles on October 7th, 2006 12:10 pm

      i would love to make this thing a regular feature – count me in if u want any help OZ. but, lets not keep open answers – let people mail them in – instead of a month – keep th contest on for a week – etc. LETS DO IT!

    20. Honhaar Goonda on October 7th, 2006 2:12 pm

      i was going to post a Caption Competition – A still of ShahRukh Khan from his forthcoming movie Don. The one that looks a bit gayish.

      but you can guys do it as answers via email sounds a good idea.

      (i even decided to do a bit of spoof of that picture, but….)

    21. Bombay Addict on October 11th, 2006 2:00 am

      :( (
      Gaah….there goes my free dinner and all bcos I got Charlie Chaplin wrong..

      Oz, make this regular, its great fun and

      Honhaar Goonda – (intriguing handle!) the caption idea sounds good. And talking of remakes, has PFC taken a house view on remakes ? I am completely anti-remakes esp. when directors change essential stuff to their liking and are hence using a well-known brand name (of a film) to dish out trash. Oog..sorry for the rant.
      :-?
