1. Identify the film...
2. Identify the song
3. The following quote if from which film?
"I see dead people."
4. Who is this great actor cum director?
5. What comes more number of times - 'Chaiyya' word in 'Chaiyya Chaiyya' song of Dil Se.. or 'Maula' word in 'Arziyan' song of Delhi 6?
Still working on the song question. I think the video is not appearing.
ReplyDeleteDone now. :)
ReplyDelete1. Swades
ReplyDelete2. Ek Pyaar ka naghma hai?
3. Sixth Sense
4. hmm - no clue..
5. I am guessing Arziyaan
Both 'Chaiyya' word and 'Maula' word are used more than 100 times in their respective songs.
ReplyDeleteGreat Post caulfield!
ReplyDeleteI suspected swades but wasnt sure.
Whats the answer for 4th one?
Swades is right. Sixth Sense is right. Ek Pyaar ka nagma is wrong. I thought that song was very simple as it is a very famous song.
ReplyDeleteI think no one is able to get that 4th one. I am surprised as he is one of the most important names in the history of cinema. He made many masterpieces but one of his film ranks number one film on almost every 'Best film' lists. I hope you can guess it now.
Another hint - That particular film which tops almost every best film list was referenced in Johnny Gaddaar. I don't know if this clue simplifies things or complicates it even more. :P
ReplyDeleteThe song is Jaane kahan gaye woh din from Mera Naam Joker !!
ReplyDeleteI think minnie is right about song.
ReplyDeleteFrancis Ford Coppola
ReplyDeleteThe answer to No. 4 is Orson Welles- the director of Citizen Kane !
ReplyDeleteminnie is right here also

Thx KB :-) Where is my prize, Cauli? :-)
ReplyDeleteI guess you get to moderate this bunch for a week ;)
ReplyDeleteLOL...KB ! I said PRIZE, not PUNISHMENT :-)
ReplyDelete@Minnie - Spoken like a 'pro' :)
ReplyDeleteYou seem to be on a roll today.....keep it coming =))
Wow... a KKR win can work wonders on someone :)
PS : I had reclused myself from the quiz, to give you a fair chance :)
Yeah yeah...where have i heard that one before ??
ReplyDeleteIllusionist - Someday all SRK fans would come and do the blanket beating on you :)
ReplyDelete@KB - I do not know why you assumed it has NOT happened already ?
ReplyDeletePS : But History could repeat itself ;)
It seems some people never learn from their past mistakes :-)
ReplyDeleteI think there is still one question left to be answered. The last question which is a bit funny IMO. :P
ReplyDeleteJust for info that Citizen Kane was referenced in Johnny Gaddaar in that scene where Rimi Sen was playing a huge puzzle game when Zakir Hussain enters the house. In Citizen Kane too, Kane's wife played a similar puzzle game when Kane entered the house. A smart reference to Citizen Kane.
Thanks KB for suggesting that prize. I will ask The Illusionist to allow Minnie take over the moderator job for one week. :P
ReplyDeleteMake sure the job includes embedding music players and youtube videos!!!
ReplyDeleteOk, I guess the 5th one was very difficult. Minnie even did not try to guess. There were 2 choices - she could have guessed and maybe could have won the 'Moderator' job. :P
ReplyDelete'Maula' word is used around 130 times in Arziyan song while 'Chaiyya' word is used around 225 times in Chaiyya Chaiyya song. So it is almost double the number of times 'Maula' is used.
Wonderful job Cauli - I vote for regular quizzes on RL, so much fun.
ReplyDeleteLOL Cauli...the threat of that particular "prize" was precisely the reason I kept away from even attempting an educated guess :-)
ReplyDelete@pardesi..LOL..that was a hit below the belt using inside info :-)
Minnie - Smileys work on RL as long as you use Yahoo Smiley code. You can find it here.
ReplyDeleteThx for the info, Illusionist! Between you and Pardesi, I think I'm getting not-so-subtle hints about my superior tech capabilities :-)
ReplyDeleteNext book choice: HTML for dummies :-)
Minnie - Speaking just for myself .. :) Tech capabilities can be acquired easily, but not the wonderful writing skills you possess !
