My Name is Khan review

Shahrukh is a patient of Autism, a disease which makes a person non-responsive to some of the human emotions. People with such disease may be very intelligent - in this case, this person has a special knack of repairing machines. His mother teaches him that there are only two types of people in the world - good and bad and that with good people only good things happen. When he is an adult, his mother dies and he has to go to live with his younger brother who lives in US and owns a beauty product company. His brother urges him to work as a salesman for his company. In the process he meets Kajol and instantaneously falls in love with her. Kajol is a divorcee who has a very young school going kid. They get married however he has to separate from his brother.
Things take a sudden turn after 9/11 attacks after which Muslims are looked up as terrorists. Their son gets killed in a related attack by older school kids which makes Kajol believe that SRK is the reason behind it. She asks him to leave her. He asks her when he can come back to her. In her anger, she asks him to go meet president of US and tell him that his name is Khan and he is not a terrorist. He promises her the same and is set to leave when she is asleep. He travels in many parts of US chasing wherever the president is going. In the process he visits a village where he finds shelter for a few days, he undergoes several encounters with US police who misunderstand him as a terrorist. In a gathering for US president a team of cameraman and a reporter catch his attention and highlight him on national TV. He gains attention of several people in US while he goes to rescue the villagers who had given him shelter.
His brother, his wife, Kajol and many others come to follow him and all this makes more and more people catch his attention including the newly elected President Obama. In a mishap, a person attacks him and stabs him. He is in hospital for several days. Finally he appears at a conference where President Obama comes to say to him - I know you, Your name is Khan and you are not a terrorist.

Nutrition (Carbs)

Your body needs carbohydrates for overall nutrition. Eat whole grains -- use whole-wheat flour in your recipes instead of white flour. Complex carbs are what you should look for instead of simple or refined carbs

Good carbs: all veggies and fruits, brown rice, 100 percent whole-wheat anything (bread, cereal and so on); buy food whole and green and unprocessed.

Bad carbs: white rice, white flour, white pasta, pastries, donuts, cakes, cookies, white bread of all kinds, refined sugary cereals -- most food that comes in a box.

Go for fiber, eat the skins on all fruit

The best carbs are the ones with the highest fiber possible. Stay away from the usual cookies, cakes, etc. Fat-Free yogurt is good too.

Avoid refined foods, slowly digested carbs will fill you up and keep you full longer without adding glucose. Slowly digested carbs include soybeans, any dried beans and whole wheat tortillas. Avoid "soft" (refined) carbs like baked goods, white flour, sugar and alcoholic drinks.

Avoid sugar, try not to eat or drink anything with too many sugars, such as juice. Juice is just extra carbs and extra calories my bodies do not need.

Cut the carbs - Try half a whole grain bagel, a smaller bowl of cereal, 100 percent whole-wheat bread , 100 percent whole-wheat pasta , and sweet potatoes (versus normal)

Try to save simple carbs -- white flour, sugar, and their products -- for special occasions.

The mantra is "Everything in moderation." Your body needs carbohydrates for energy, but portion control is the key.

Eating a balance of protein/carbs and fat at every meal and snack allows the blood sugar to stay above baseline. When it drops, you tend to grab the first carb you see and eat and eat -- usually those are the bad carbs (processed ones -- crackers, bagels etc.).

Racial commments on phone.

3:00 AM - I get a call - hear racial comments! I cut the call and sleep again. 5 mins later you call me again and utter similar racial comments. I switch the phone off and sleep. In the morning I get a voicemail -same voice. My dear friend - second of all - you have got a wrong number so you are not doing the things rightly. First of all, you are not doing right things !

My dear friend, whoever you are, please discontinue doing this otherwise there *might* be once that you call me not blocking your number. It is then I will not hesitate at all to take my sweet actions against you.

Fekta-Anekta !




Fekta Kapoor throws cell phones, tantrums and whatever can be used as a weapon on whoever comes in front of her. She is after all the Malkin of the ad agency. Why does she organize Geet Purvai ?

Anekta Kapoor is second to Fekta Kapoor in the agency. She speaks broken english, she likes herself, she likes muscular men, she likes to jog and probably she thinks she could be a better model than Nageena :) Probably she definitely can be!

Where does she meet with Bobby Veeru Dharam Singh Dhoni ? What happens next ?
