Oscars of the year 2009.......

What actually the OSCAR is ?

Academy Awards, popularly known as Academy Awards, these prizes given annually in the United States by the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences for excellence in the creation and production of motion pictures. First presented in 1929 for films shown in 1927 and 1928, the Academy Awards, commonly known as Oscars, are among the film industry’s most coveted prizes.

The entire academy membership participates in voting for the annual awards. In most award categories, a maximum of five entrants are first nominated by the academy members who work in that particular field (that is, actors select actors, directors select directors, and so on). From among these nominees all academy members select the winners by secret ballot. The winners are publicly announced at a formal ceremony each spring. One hour of the 1929 awards ceremony was broadcast on the radio, and from 1944 through 1969 the entire ceremony was broadcast. Television broadcasts began in 1953 and today attract a worldwide audience. Various people claim to have given the name Oscar to the symbolic statuette presented to winners, including actor Bette Davis, academy librarian Margaret Herrick, and columnist Sidney Skolsky. But the origin of the name has never been definitively determined. The gold-plated bronze human figure, which is 34.3 cm (13.5 in) high and weighs 3.9 kg (8.5 lb), was created by American sculptor George Stanley based on sketches made by American motion-picture art director Cedric Gibbons.

Awards are given for best motion picture; foreign-language film; performances by male and female actors in both leading and supporting roles; achievement in direction; screenplays, both original and adapted from previously produced or published material; and scores and songs composed for films. Other award categories include live-action short subject, animated short subject, documentary feature, and documentary short feature. Excellence in technical disciplines is also recognized, including art direction, cinematography, costume design, makeup, film editing, sound and sound effects editing, and visual effects. In addition, special or honorary awards are given for distinguished careers or humanitarian achievement.

2009 Hosted the 81st Academy Awards, and it was considered the most popular and best host of all the Oscars ceremonies.

Yes, your hero 'Wolverine', he hosted this year's oscar awards Ceremony.


This 81st Academy Awards honoring the best in film for 2008 was held on Sunday, February 22, 2009 at the Kodak Theatre in Hollywood with actor Hugh Jackman hosting the ceremony for the first time.

All the films nominated to this big honorable prize ceremony are the finest ones. Each movie made with the great efforts to please the viewers and introduce them with the different world, which resides somewhere here, only in this 'world of our own'. May be we don't realize but each concept and stories are just from us, from ourselves, from an individual me........ and that creates the great inspiration for other lives too....If we see the mirror carefully, we will definitely know 'What is the story of Me?', & 'Who is the best hero or heroine of this film'......& then only the 'Search Of My Own' ends...

The Mysterious Thing Called LOVE ...



If you find yourself in love with someone who does not love you, be gentle with yourself. There is nothing wrong with you. Love just didn't choose to rest in the other person's heart.


If you find someone else in love with you and you don't love him/her, feel honored that love came and called at your door, but gently refuse the gift you cannot return, do not take advantage, do not cause pain.


How you deal with love is how you deal with you, and all our hearts feel the same pains and joys, even if our lives and ways are different.


If you fall in love with another, and he/she falls in love with you, and then love chooses to leave, do not try to reclaim it or to assess blame, let it go. There is a reason and there is a meaning. You will know in time.


Remember that you don't choose love. Love chooses you. All you can really do is accept it for all its mystery when it comes into your life. Feel the way it fills you to overflowing, then reach out and give it away.


Give it back to the person who brought it alive in you. Give it to others who deem it poor in spirit. Give it to the world around you in anyway you can. There is where many lovers go wrong. Having been so long without love, they understand love only as a need. They see their hearts as empty places that will be filled by love, and they begin to look at love as something that flows to them rather than from them.


The first blush of new love is filled to overflowing, but as their love cools, they revert to seeing their love as need. They cease to be someone who generates love and instead become someone who seeks love.


They forget that the secret of love is that it is a gift, and that it can be made to grow only by giving it away.


Remember this, and keep it to your heart. Love has its own time, its own seasons, and its own reason for coming and going. You cannot bribe it or coerce it, or reason it into saying. You can only embrace it when it arrives and give it away when it comes to you. But if it chooses to leave from your heart or from the heart of your lover, there is nothing you can do and there is nothing you should do.


Love always has been and always will be a mystery. Be glad that it came to live for a moment in your life.

What goes around, comes around.......




She

May be the face I can't forget
The trace of pleasure or regret
May be my treasure or the price I have to pay
She
May be the song that summer sings
May be the chill that autumn brings
May be a hundred different things
Within the measure of a day

She
May be the beauty or the beast
May be the famine or the feast
May turn each day into a heaven or a hell
She may be the mirror of my dreams
The smile reflected in a stream
She may not be what she may seem
Inside her shell

She
Who always seems so happy in a crowd
Whose eyes can be so private and so proud
No one's allowed to see them when they cry
She
May be the love that cannot hope to last
May come to me from shadows of the past
That I'll remember till the day I die

She
May be the reason I survive
The why and wherefore I'm alive
The one I'll care for through the rough in ready years
Me
I'll take her laughter and her tears
And make them all my souvenirs
For where she goes I've got to be
The meaning of my life is

She
She, oh she

This is the lyrics of song 'She' from 'Notting Hill' movie. I have seen this movie so many times but again if see it, i like it more, more i like it , i watch it more and, more i watch it, i like it more and more.....

This song sung by 'Elvis Costello', amazing voice and the feelings he put in it....
It all describe all the feelings anybdy can describe for her beloved..... how beautiful each and every word he placed.....ahmmmm

'She is the reason i survive, thats why and wherefore i m alive..... I'll take her laugh and tears to make it all souvenirs'........ really romantic lines...

I have listened all its songs all are beautifull....

Well, in this era its however seems impossible kinda thing or just to say minuscule probability to get or hold with the perfect kinda companion forever, seems each and everybody got the lexicon having the single word known as 'Breakup', but if it is not possible so there would be other word 'Divorce'. Totally, the whole life of the couple's goes around these tiny little, heavy devastating freaky words, because they got the excuse 'Haven't got the One'. What the kind of hunt of the today's youth is ????

Yeah but there is always the exception, we can watch the love birds too, who grow, flies and dies together.....yeah, but the time and people gets low of this kind....
May be just because of the ecological succession (another excuse to extinguish the ardor for the physical fire).

Well, peoples take it for granted and think, life's goes on and yes what can anybody do for anything which ain't seems to be in anybody's underframe. Its all about LIFE.....
One shudn't forget ' What goes around, comes around'. So just try to have faith in faith of the other, who seems to be your one and have some intimacy to keep the attuned feelings within to find the one in your oneself your so called other person.
