The Sulafest this year had too much of electronic music. A complete zone to it .Also , sula was spread out with music in every section ,whether there were electronic zones or an artist trying to grab attention near the grape stomping ,or the main stage and entrance to the Amphitheatre too had music .It seemed this fest had lost its main appeal to have live bands performing , it seems like they got carried away by just being another concert type of event since ,mostly everywhere in India we are getting to hear one genre.It wasn’t really different .Saturday , day one highlight- the gypsy all stars were different, they sang songs and for one of the songs they too tried creating a fusion with folk music and spanish tunes . The Day 2 was utter disappointment since it had just music with no lyrics and nothing new to offer .
Also it seems that the fest has being taking the advantage of the brand name ‘Sula ‘ since this year they even charged rupee 100 for car parking for each day .

Here we look to upload new songs …and comment on the way they are directed and composed
UpperCrust Foodshow!!!
India’s first, finest and most awaited food and wine festival, a trade fair with a difference!
This popular Food magazine “UpperCrust”came with a concept of a food show about Ten years ago , the concept of having food stall of different companies and goods related to food ,whether chocolates ,drinks,snacks and not just that , they too had renowned chefs from India and international hotels coming in and showcasing their talent to the indian audience.Its a 3 day food carnival ,It started with having huge crowds to witness this event initially but this time I noticed not only did the crowd subside ,but also the number of stalls were very few ,may be because of the dates clashing with another interesting event in the city .I would encourage foodies to go and visit this event in the coming year because its a good concept and if we don’t encourage events like these , they would not comeback again and this would not be a good sign for brands and organisations looking to experiment with events for the public and the loss is only yours and mine.

The two American brands !!!
The other day I was just going through the blog and I was like why am I writing a blog only on movie reviews? so today I am writing an article ,I hope this interest you .
It’s about the two big names Starbucks and coca cola
These two brands have driven not just India but In a way the world crazy and since whenever we need a cola drink ,we would ask would you have coca cola ,or while serving we would again ask ,it’s nothing wrong in asking or offering coca cola ,but offering a coca cola and giving another brand . That the big question why has coca-cola become what it is today .just because it’s an American brand ,I mean we do have so many brands in your country too but they are on a small scale .India itself had thumbs up ,which was one of the best cola drinks produced by the country but that too the coca cola company bought I guess they were afaird to compete with the thumbs up brand that they decided to buy it off.
The American make small things so big as if they are the best in the world
Even with coffee there are so many local cafe outlets ,but still people go crazy with Starbucks it’s just another coffee shop right .
I had heard quite a few people saying when we had coffee cafe day opened an popular coffee chain in India ,when will we have Starbucks here in India and now that we have it ,people are going overboard with it . The products are all Indian whether the milk or cream it’s I guess the times which we are living in .The people have become too brand conscious .
Also I guess the people expect a quality , and a standard that might come with brands like these since they are international ,all over we also would know the menu or drinks offered by a particular brand that keep us loyal to be visiting or consuming the product we have faith and believe in and that just might be why Starbucks has been doing so well.

The musical play
The musical play ,this was the first time that we experienced this ,as it was a must see while you were here in London ,there were quite a few options too lion king,Matilda,chocolate factory and wicked .We settled for wicked and It was the right choice I guess the sets were as is you were watching a movie on television rather than a live play,the effects couldn’t get better ,and in the end it was one experience worth experiencing in a life time .
