Snapshot of the story
This is the story of a young man Siddharth, (played by Aamir Khan) who is an acting member of the mafia that terrorizes local people and asks for protection money from vendors. Then happens the series of incidents as he stands against the mafia to protect the local vendors.
Theme of Story
Siddhartha is an amateur boxer and arm of the mafia run by Ronnie (played by Sharat Saxena) who uses muscle power against those who do not give protection money. The local people and vendors are terrified by them and are also backed by political power who override the law and order. Aamir Khan’s brother Jai (played by Rajit Kapoor) takes care of Ronnie’s accounts of all the extorted money.

On Screen Chemistry
As always Aamir Khan gave his best, this was the 2nd movie of Rani Mukherjee and she also impresses with his screen presence. Duo Jatin-Lalit worked hard to create the romantic music and song rendered by Aamir Khan “Aati Kya Khandala…” was the chart topper for long time. Stand amongst the finest movie makers Vikram Bhatt is a versatile director that has made comedy, horror, drama and this time he tried action movie but could not justify with Ghulam with weak story line and direction.
Conclusion
Ghulam gives the loud and clear message to raise the voice against wrong doing and mafia which is danger to every ones independence. Movie does not run on the flat note and has many high and low in the story that some time spoil you experience but Aamir Khan with his strong and emotional performance made a hit.

Unless you are an Abbas-Mastan fan then you might be guessing through this movie right to the very end.

There are lots of twists and turns in this movie as every one double crosses each other to own their piece of the multimillion dollar business and stud farm starting with saif Ali Khan’s murder.

On Screen Chemistry
Director Abbas-Mastan is known for their murder mysteries and thriller and with a previous film called Race then did it again with this. Story has enough convolutions to keep you guessing and is able to surprise the audience very well. Saif Ali Khan and Bipasha Basu had strong roles and able to deliver their very best, however Akshaye Khanna and Katrina Kaif talents were somewhat wasted in this movie. Movie has good music and steamy scenes between Saif Ali Khan and Bipasha which is a must watch.

Review of Free Online Dating Sites, DiveintoThePool.com - Part 5
Tuesday, August 30th, 2011
Conclusion
Free dating site, DiveintoThePool.com scores average in overall look and feel and lacks consistency in user experience on the rest of the site. Registration to this site has a conventional approach and missing a social networking plugin which Jumpdates has integrated to help online singles in a quick signup.
You can upload a maximum of 10 photos and this is appreciable than the other 100 free dating sites which normally allows only 1 photo. Messaging is poor with DiveintoThePool.com as it offers only offline messaging feature, this is where Jumpdates excels and offers a variety of online and offline messaging feature like sending winks, messages and IM to it’s members.
DiveintoThePool.com has a poor member base and even less active users and this is where free dating site needs to step up in order to compete. As a result your best choice would be Jumpdates for online singles.
-The End-

UK police to warn women of online dating offenders - Dr Dato’s Brief
Monday, July 18th, 2011
I recently read an interesting post in a UK newsletter about the government’s efforts to provide a service to women to warn them of potential abusive men that they may come across in dating websites. This work was spurred by ‘Calre’s Law’ which was advocated by government officials in the recent murder of a woman who found a man through an online dating site.
The idea behind this work is that the UK government has an extensive database of offenders and many women can find comfort in conducting a search though the database for potential offenders.
Although, this is a noble move by the government, it does not solve the entire problem.
In particular, new offenders will not be found in the database because no incident has been logged. The online dating industry is a growing power house that will attract many individuals from all parts of society including reclusive and violent people. Since many of these offenders are almost always loners and live in a world all by themselves, the virtual world offers a perfect avenue to converse with women and overcome their social deficiencies.
The help from the UK government cannot preclude the fact that, women will always have to remain vigil whomever they have to date and they need to take appropriate measures and always follow these rules:
- Tell a friend you are going to meet someone you met online
- Always meet in a public place
- Never go inside of a car with someone you just met
