Sultan Rahi and Newton
(for our non desi readers, the late Sultan Rahi was a Hero and an Icon in the pujabi film world of Lollywood, his timeless classics have shown endless talent, great potential and a voice that even today echos in my ears, Long Live Sultan Rahi )
Once, Newton came to Pakistan and watched a few Lollywood movies that had his head spinning. He was convinced that all his logic and laws in physics were just a huge pile of junk and apologized for everything he had done.
In the movies of Sultan Rahi, Newton was confused to such an extent that he went paranoid. Here are a few scenes
1) Sultan Rahi has a Brain Tumor which, according to the doctors can't be cured and his death is imminent. In one of the fights, our great Sultan Rahi is shot in the head. To everybody's surprise, the bullet passes through his ears taking away the tumor along with it and he is cured!
Long Live Sultan Rahi!
2) In another movie, Sultan Rahi is confronted with 3 gangsters. Sultan Rahi has a gun but unfortunately only one bullet and a knife. Guess, what he does? He throws the knife at the middle gangster? & shoots the bullet towards the knife. The knife cuts the bullet into 2 pieces, which kills both the gangsters on each side of the middle gangster & the knife kills the middle one.
3) Sultan Rahi is chased by a gangster. Sultan Rahi has a revolver but no bullets in it. Guess what he does. Nah? Not even in your remotest imaginations. He waits for the gangster to shoot. As soon as the gangster shoots,Sultan Rahi opens the bullet compartment of his revolver and catches the bullet. Then, he closes the bullet compartment and fires his gun.Bang... the gangster dies...
This was too much for our Newton to take! He was completely shaken and decided to go back. But he happened to see another movie for one last time, and thought that at least one movie would follow his theory of physics. The whole movie goes fine and Newton is happy that all in the world hasn't changed. Oops, not so fast!
The 'climax' finally arrives.
Sultan Rahi gets to know that the villain is on the other side of a very high wall. So high that Sultan Rahi can't jump even if he tries like one of those superman techniques that our heroes normally use. Sultan Rahi has to desperately kill the villain because it's the climax. (Newton dada is smiling since it is virtually impossible?) Sultan Rahi suddenly pulls two guns from his pockets. He throws one gun in the air and when the gun has reached above the height of the wall, he uses the second gun and shoots at the trigger of the first gun in air. The first gun fires off and the villain is dead.
Newton commits suicide...

Comments on this journal
but i have to say, im impressed by your last comment moto, your use of imagery was unbeatable,......when you said the paranda was swaying i had a full (sony colour image) pic in my mind.
where the baddie step sister (woman wanting to steal momi rana from the heroine) traps him in some ruins in the middle of a jungle and dances lewdly for a full 40 minutes in the middle of a thunderstorm/ pouring rain without catching a cold..! while singing 'Neray aa zaalima ve'.. (i have the soundtrack somewhere unless my siblings have nicked it)
momi's feeble efforts to escape (taking half steps towards the exit) are hilarious as are his shows of disapproval at the woman's attempts at seduction (he half raises his eyebrow a couple of times)..
(note.. film needs to be seen at the cinema pref. in lahore so you can get the right ambience.. ie. men cat calling/ whistling every time an actress says or does anything suggestive.. also a very good primer in punjabi.. i couldn't speak punjabi before i sat through the film.. and now i can! :P )
ANjuman, ive surely underestimated her powers.
and btw, the title the bed is screaming, isnt that catchy, mayb we need ! " the charpai is breakingggggggg "
,do they make king sized charpais? if so i want one.
that women though, she looks so powerful and controlling, a sure punjaban!
why arent u like that );
docali, thanks yar! your a star, i think il find one of those punjaban pics that labina liked so much! and put up instead. IM SURE naseeb admin would approve them ;)
afaq keep those lewd ?ber-motoo punjaban pics OFF naseeb - they r an insult to punjabans everywhere *puts on punjaban hat temporarily to emphasise the point/ potential insult caused...*
