Duniya Goal Hai

Does anyone besides me think that "Duniya Goal Hai" is the funniest Indian show on TV... ever?

No one can plan such comedy, man... the punch lines are just too spontaneous, reminds me of Coupling.... these dudes (Ranvir, Vinay, and the Australian (?) guy whose name I can't recall at the moment) have me in splits for all of 30 minutes...

God! finally a break from commercialised template humor that apparently gets ratings for the media industry because there is a fool born every second who'd think shit like "Hum Paanch" is comedy!

I think I am gonna put up excerpts... ROTFLMAO...

Are you mad? Duniya Goal Hai sucks balls man! It barely qualifies as television!


So when do you land? I reach Bangalore on the 9th morning. Can't make it earlier...my sister's holidays are short...(blah blah).

Semi Girebaal is the best thing MTV's done in the last five years. I think it's probably (going by what I see on it when channel-surfing) the only good thing on it now.

those two might be idiots, but it could be worse. They could have inflicted Mandira Bedi on us again.

Actually I don't think they are idiots. Ranvir and Vinay were excellent on Channel V in the 90s. I think they need help from a writer, maybe.

Well, like I said before its not been as funny as it was when i wrote the post...
look... i don't forgive goofy just like that.. and those guys are goofy... but earlier on they had this deadpan way of cracking really weird or outrageous or both.. jokes, which had us (me and my brother... both of us have the same sense of humour) in splits...
the good part was that these chaps were hosting a show rather than "acting" the part like Bhogle...

now, for whatever reasons there aren't any jokes... maybe they got scared after bad reviews from whereever... so now its 2 guys neither acting nor being natural...


I have not actually seen Semi Girebal... I hate all the Cyruses

i like them all, especially Sahukar. He reminds me a lot of Salil.
that brings to the question:has anyone heard from Salil recently?

no that brings to the question: "Are you mad?!"

No sorry! it doesn't... just wanted to be dramatic!

Broacha needs medical help man... Sahukar.. ok man.. whatever!

Cyrus Broacha is way part his prime. Anyone remember the pre-Bakra golden age? MTV True Lies, Loveline etc? Or even older...MTV-U. That was the first time I heard about the Stephen's-Hindu "rivalry". And I loved his tabla ad where he says a tabla is like a woman.

Semi Girebaal is a decent idea, but it should go on for only 10 mins, and not half an hour.

Yohan you know shit all about football humour.

Duniya Goal Hai is bloody brilliant.

Sorry for not being around.

Don't think I am going to make it to Bangalore.

Jakka is coming here next weekend for his FTII interviews.

Put your hands on your hearts, twelve years of agony are finally over. Italy is in the finals. My tears in 1994 seek redemption.

Ital Ancora.

What's cooking?

I should just start posting the comments that people put up here...

@Pai: how do u even know salil's dad? u make it sound like you ran into him at a pub or something...

@ Salil: Well, Italy's won... u cried when they lost in '94?
i almost fell asleep during the final... Zindane's head butt is all i'll remember.... what a guy man! what could have possibly provoked him to have a go like that! has anyone ever been red carded in the final match of his career which also happens to be the EC final? i seriously thought i was asleep and dreaming....

and madhuslost for sure now...

The headbutt was shocking.

@Tawaks: All well? You should have come to Bangalore...we had fun, although we couldn't watch the final in a pub. Jakka and I went to Sauabh Deshpande's place, and watched it with him and Chintan.
