Pappu Didn’t Dance Saala!
I don’t see too many movies, so if I am to prepare a list of movies that I missed it would be a long one. “Jaane Tu… Ya Jaane Na” was one that I missed. In fact I regret missing its star-studded premiere that was held at Oberoi Mall, Goregaon, just two kilometers from my residence.
Colors channel recently announced the world premiere of “Jaane Tu… Ya Jaane Na” on 22nd Feb. I sat all day reminding myself that I want to see that. Just a few minutes after the movie started it was interrupted by messages “E48 No Signal” and “E52 Searching for Signal”. I first thought it to be a problem at Local Cable Operator level but later realized it to be from Satellite.
After signal got OK, the movie ran for less than a couple of minutes and started showing same screens again. I waited for more than an hour hoping that condition would get better but it remained as it is i.e. 3 minutes of movie then 12 minutes of signal breakage.
If this behavior is to be compared to that old Microsoft joke “This is a feature not a bug”, all we can say this is just a new Digital Rights Management and anti-piracy measure. Right?
When I closed the television I was asked "What happened?” I replied “Pappu Didn’t Dance Saala” (Parody to a song from the same movie)
