Diwali – Festival of Lights

Reading Yahoo News for Thursday, October 23, 2014, I was interested first with the article about Ahok, the Governor of DKI Jakarta. However, what I was interested the most was the first paragraph that describes about “Diwali celebration in India House, Jalan Taman Suropati Nomor 6, Menteng, Jakarta Pusat”.

Diwali, the Festival of Lights, is celebrated by Hindu as the victory of light over darkness and good over evil. They will clean the house the day before Diwali. On Diwali nights, they dress up in new clothes and light up diyas (oil lamp) and join family puja (worship). They also exchange gifts, eat sweets, and lit the fireworks. It is also the time for family and friends to bond relationship.

Although I never come to see it myself, it sounds nice, with the fireworks and sweets. It seems like Christmas Day for me ^^

May this cheer and joy, this merriment and mirth of this divine and blessing festival, may surround you forever … Happy Dipawali ^^

Taare Zameen Par

Taare Zameen Par ~ “Like Stars on Earth” (released 21 December 2007) is another movie from Aamir Khan that I adore after Three Idiots and Ghajini . It is really really really a touching and beautiful movie. It tells about an eight-year-old-boy, named Ishaan, who is dyslexic but blessed with excellent painting talent. Taare Zameen Par received numerous awards, including the Filmfare Best Film Award for 2008 and the 2008 National Film Award for Best Film on Family Welfare . It was India's official entry for the 2009 Academy Awards Best Foreign Film but it failed to progress to the nominations short list.

Last many days my friend, Novalia ‘Colluci’, messaged me. She asked if the wife of Michele Buble is the actress who played as Mia Colluci on Rebeldeway. On the next day I googled and found out that she is indeed Luisana Lopilato!
