The film was Kabhi Alvida Naa Kehna (something like Never say Goodbye, or the guide said so), more than two hours of indian film, really spectacular, in this cinema that looks like a cake with bat on the roof (yeah, thy fly over your head during the movie), and best of all, the indian sex symbol Shahrukh Khan:

Just a few words before post my photos.

With this blog I just want to show some kitsch things founded in the cities, in the web, on the radio etc....
Yes, because kitsch is everywhere, and there's a good kitsch (let's say an aware-kitsch) that is in the born-to-be-kitsch things, and a terrible kitsch, that lies in the wannabe things.

Well, a lot of people had written about this in the past (Gillo Dorfles docet), I'll only try to show some funny things.

Let's stop to write, let's show some pictures.
