  8. There were five people voting.. me, kumar mangat, vishal bharadwaj, john abraham, rahul nanda
    manav got 3,2,1 votes for his three
    the other two winners and aaina got 2 votes each
    and one each for the last three..
    since we had to choose only three in total.. so keeping manav aside we chose two out of zaheer, aaina and elvis..
    each person had to just pick three of their favourites after ruling out ones that didn’t go with the film..
    Bad luck for David who really propped up the competition, but it just did’t go with the film..
    the fact that no one really knew what the film was about, proves this really doesn’t reflect on those who did not make it..
    sorry for the delay..

    btw it was accepted by all that OZ’s entry was the worst .. ha ha

    Sorry for the off-topic post oz…but I read about Sonali and was deeply moved. Just wanted to convey that I’m praying that God grants Sonali and her parents enough strength to cope up with this. I’ll pass on the information to my acquaintances in the US and ask them to do the needful.

    I hate to be the moral police here. ugh.

    Elvis’s entry is similar to a bob marley t-shirt one my friends used to have. Very similar concept..even the colors.

    Maybe its plagiarized, maybe its a case of “great minds think alike.”

    Please don’t rip me apart or flame me for this. I’m just being honest. The first thing that came to my mind when I saw that poster was my friends t-shirt. :(

    Just bought the No Smoking soundtrack an hour ago. The music is so rich, complex and urgent, it makes my face tingle, my lips burn. Is this the intended effect?

    Omkara was my favorite music of the last couple of years. I was trying not to hope too hard for another gem from Vishal Bhardwaj, but already I’m loving No Smoking almost as much. So far, Vishal’s own voice on Kash Laga had the biggest effect on me.

    Now I’m anxious for the movie to live up to the soundtrack.

    This probably isn’t the right thread, but I don’t feel well informed enough about music to start my own topic.

    More power to you Guys! Well deserved wins. The poster contest was a glaring example of “creativity phoot padi @ PFC” :)
    It was such a memorable time, refreshing the page every hour to find so many new entries, so many fresh perspectives bumbling with ideas. The very passion with which every designer envisioned the film and its look was so inspiring and heartening!
    Heartfelt thanks to all participants and congratulations to the winners!
    saara prize money phoonk de!

    Evelyn, feel free to discuss any aspect of No Smoking’s music on my post!(jab bhi cigarette jalti hai). :)

    @ #14 and #17

    The poster I was referring to was made by Elvis D’silva.
    Btw..check this out. I was looking for the bob marley picture..this is what I found.

    http://imagecache2.allposters.com/images/pic/153/1033046~Bob-Marley-Smoke-the-Herb-Man-Posters.jpg

    This is the one I’ve seen on my friends t-shirt, except that his t-shirt was black and the color of bob marley’s face was pretty similar to Elvis’s creation.

    Sorry Zaheer, I meant to say elvis…my bad! Your poster on the other hand is pretty cool.And Vikkster, you’re right, too bad anurag and Oz are not aware of that almost legendary and extremely well known image of Bob Marley that elvis ripped off.

    I think you’ll find the word “obsession” describes someone who continues to refer to or mention a person they have no real connection with or an event long after it’s over (as is the case here), so please check all the facts before you butt in.

    And I just realised that I had two off-topic posts on this thread. My bad…and apologies to Oz and Anurag for spreading smoke in a No Smoking area.

    Congrats to all the winners. I would’ve come to clap for you guys had it not been postponed. Now its coinciding with the T-20 match to which I have tickets. So let me do the honours here itself.
