SOS

Last night, when my brother called me to inquire about the attack on PNS Mehran, I was least bothered. I told myself probably it is some minor attack etc. and will be dealt with ease. Soon enough, a friend from Islamabad messaged that what the hell is happening in Karachi. That message put me on alert and thought maybe it’s another stroke on the capability of our forces after Operation Geronimo.

Obviously, like the majority of Pakistanis, I too was furious on the Pakistan Navy and its lack of surveillance and response to terrorism. My eyes were fixed on news channels till 2:30 a.m. while remarking how lame our forces can be. Despite that we got our SSG commandos on ground, we failed to save the base and aircraft from mere 15 terrorists. Probably they were far more dedicated to their cause and faithful to their promises of terror as compared to our supreme forces.

Somehow as a nation, we have blind faith in our military capabilities and assume that they are the savior. In recent months, our faith is being tried and tested and probably we are on the verge of losing it. I so don’t want to lose it.
Being a Pakistani, I am proud of various things and one of them is our Pakistan Armed Forces. They have made us proud on various occasions, either it's Battle of Mogadishu or a War against Terrorism. We have buried over 3000 soldiers and continue to do so. In return for our blood and sweat, we have got increased insecurity and orphaned generations.

It is high time, Pakistan Armed Forced buck up to their promised passion and stand for the national sovereignty. We have always believed in you and have given you our fathers, brothers, sons, and husbands. We expect you to protect us from unseen as you are one of us but above us.

We wish you a long life with the hope that it will not be wasted in barracks while planning your retirement plots in DHA or NORE.

Wanted JUTT

As usual on Eid, my brother was zapping through the channels, when he finally stopped at a new movie WANTED. We both were excited and astonished because this movie is already screening at cinemas and till its running there, no cable operator can show it.

But it was EID after all.

Anyways, we started watching the Salman Khan(SK) and his unbeatable action. SK has come to the big screen after some gap but with all the preparations to take the audience with storm.The Tamil direction was very visible with the pistol dancing from one hand to other hand. I was awe struck during an action sequence where he managed to kick out 12 gangster all by himself. And during all this, he had not received a single scratch or a blood streak on his body. I thought thats enough for a middle aged man. The make-up artist was an inexpert to put enough amount of base on his face, because the wrinkles and drunken-eye-patches were visible.

If closely noticed, SK's bald patch was shown too in few romantic scenes. I suppose editor was tired of hiding it at many places already.

Through out the film, I felt like watching a human who has found immortality. I mean not in a single action scene, Salman Khan got injured. Kudos to the director and hero, who managed to kill a leading gangster and his gang in a cleanest manner. During all this, all he lost was his shirt from Khakee Vardee (Police Uniform).

Later, I realized that why the hell do we make fun of our very own Sultan Rahi and his Jutt roles?

What was his fault? I think he did exactly the same, decades ago what Bollywood action heroes are doing now.

In fact, Bollywood learn all these tactics from THE MATRIX, where as our Mr.Rahi did it without any prior inspirations.

If you see there is not much difference in Salman Khan and Sultan Rahi.
Even their first names have same initial and equal number of alphabets.

We Pakistanis should be proud of having Sultan Rahi for doing films with immortal acts then. At least they were his own and no Matrix was there to be inspired by.

I hereby, announce Salman Khan as a Wanted Jutt of Bollywood Cinema.
