A friend of mine recently went to Lifestyle (chain of clothing stores in India) to buy usual stuff. Her amusement was now that it was charging Rs. 7 for a plastic bag for items that were already marked up by 50%. Come on, this is not a big news. And then I thought, it could be.

Don Remake
April 26, 2010 — Puru KI saw Don today. It was actually a treat from bday boy Mrunal. As for the movie, not too sure if it was entirely nice or bad.
