Today, I, unfortunately, had to subject myself to the ignominy of watching Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom.
If ever there is a serious doubt on the geographical IQ of the Hollywoodians , one should just go through the above mentioned movie to clear all possible misconceptions.
After crash-landing somewhere in the Himalayas , Indiana Jones ,his sidekick and a soigné caucasian female (who follows the hero like a stereotypical Xanthippe ), how in the hell did they reach a village full of starving people who bore not even a slight semblance to the people of Leh-Ladakh, Kashmir or anybody living in the foothills of Himalayas??????
And then closer to the subject of this Blog , the Pankot Palace, which sounded more like Buncombe/Bunkum Palace to me , shocked me to utter disgust with their a la carte dishes. The nightmarish smorgasbord featured live snakes ( which were ravenously gulped down by the obsequious guests/aids) , steroid-boosted bugs, and the height of mythomania- the Chilled-Monkey Brains for dessert !!!!
Zero points to Hollywood for coughing up this daub creation !
