Kite Runner the movie is here....

For all those who loved this book by Khaled Hosseini, here comes the cinematographic version. It would not be too much to say that this is one of the most brilliant piece of literature, one that not only makes you bawl in a happy ending but also makes you taste and smell life in Afghanistan. A moving tale of a young Amir who is haunted by his past and the choices that he made. A must read for critters passionate about culture, places, history and most importantly souls passionate about life…..

Another artistic rendition of life in Afghanistan is ‘A Thousand Splendid Suns’. If ‘The Kite Runner’ was a tale about a tormented man, ‘A Thousand Splendid Suns’ is an entangled saga of women in Afghanistan, mangled relationships, withered lives and amidst all these, unlikely friendships and the power of love.
