I finished my exams yesterday. exams were good… Now completely in holiday mood… Watched Iqbal Yesterday. for those of you who haven’t watched this movie, go watch this movie. It’s a story about deaf and dumb guy making it to the Indian cricket team with sheer practice and determination. Excellent acting by the kid and Naseerudin Shah.
