The Lunchbox Review

'The Lunch Box' is a film directed by Ritesh Batra which was selected by prestigious Sundance Institute film fund and has won many hearts at the film festivals. 

The film shot by Michel Simmonds around the backdrop of Mumbai which showcases the life of its inhabitants and there struggle in the city. The film also recreates the nostalgia like the use of tapes and tape recorders and the letters as a medium of exchange of communication between Illa and Mr. Sajjan Fernandis. They both fall in love due to an error in the dabba (Tiffin box) food delivery system which leads to delivery at the wrong address instead of her husband. 

The film has actors like Irrfarn Khan a widower working as a accountant in a government office working in the claims department who is about to retire where as Nawaquzidin Siddiqui the new office employee in the claims department and Nimrat Kaur as Ila the house wife and her husband trying to re ignite the romance in the marriage after her daughters birth. 

A a sweet voice of a Illa's neighbour who spices up the screen with witty puns and advices but with seriousness which Ritesh Batra successfully evokes similar to Hitchcock where audiences seem to relate and root for the negative character and many other small moments which can make you laugh out loud. 

The marathi folk songs have been cleverly used with old hindi film songs like Sajjan as background songs with interesting linking of cuts in the editing by John F. Lyons and music by Max Richter and sound design . 

The film at the end teaches you to appreciate small things in life.

Tasher Desh Review

It's not an art cinema or a commercial Bengali film its promises of an experience.

Qaushiq Mukherjee also known as 'Q' is known for directing films 'Gandu'. He is well known for making psychedelic films, which have overdose of visuals style of editing cuts like a fashion film with parallel narrative taking you a trip of music and visuals in a world governed by the characters which takes you on journey.

'Tasher Desh' is a modern take on revolution breaking rules and coming out of the shackles of the society. 'Tasher Desh' in English means 'Country of cards' reminds you Satyajit Rays 'Chess Players' and movies like Dreams by Akira Kurosawa and Takshi Kitnao's way of story telling and narrative structure.

The songs of Rabindranath Tagore with new age music bring life to stretched conversations between the writer and the widower and the relationships between the royal prince and the princess and the queen.

The writer's story is in black and white whereas he characters are in color. Mixed with claustrophobia and open spaces of beaches in the land of cards.

Its Rabindranath Tagore's play retold.

We all know the pain of losing our beloved mobile devices. We all know someone who has lost their mobile phone on a vacation with all the precious holiday moments and contacts and vital banking information.

If you have a android phone its possible to turn on the silent phone or to locate the culprit or catching hold of your prankster friend when he hides it somewhere hidden from your view as you struggle to find it. :)

Macintosh internal speaker output volume fix

This is a frequent problem on mac when the internal speakers go mute. This are the solutions I found on the internet which also worked for me many times on different systems on mac platforms.

Scenario 1: 

Its a problem when a switchers gets jammed. It seems to work with headphones but the internal speakers does not give any sound output.  (I am no mac expert so you can search about it on the internet)

1) Open system preferences and go to sound control preference and then select the output tab so that you can see your output options.

Get your headphone audio jack and then gently poke around the back your audio output. 

The aim is to poke a  switch inside jack output which needs to get pressed.

Scenario 2:

Watch the output in the system preferences as it turns from Built-In Speakers grey.

1) In a finder window select/open: Macintosh HD - Library - Preferences - Audio


2) Copy any files in this audio folder onto your desktop to keep as a backup.


3) Delete any files in the audio folder


4) Open the System Preferences - sound control preference and then click a few things to force the computer to generate new uncorrupted plist (or preferences list) files in the folder you just purged.


5) If all goes well and you have sound through a built-in-speaker audio output option delete the "backup" .plist files you copied to the desktop.
