Is Mallika Sherawat or Gul Panag more popular on Twitter ?

Friday, July 17th, 2009

The bollywood celebrities are all Twitter these days. Gul Panag has been using twitter for a long time now and is probably one of the most popular actors on Twitter. But bollywood diva Mallika Sherawat last day visited the Twitter HQ and even did a quick dance party with Twitter folks.

There has also been reports that Mallika Sherawat is the new “brand ambassador” for Twitter in India. Some people think that its a bit unfair as well.

2012 Movie looks very promising

Thursday, July 9th, 2009

Just saw the 2012 trailer and got blown away. Its probably going to be a case study for special effects.

However seeing the trailer it looks like the director has something about mass destruction, just like in his previous movies. Looking forward to it.
