ViruRulez Posted October 3, 2010 Author Posted October 3, 2010 It was good but Kalmadi was being a-hole by saying whatever he couldnt say in an interview .. feck the gandhis :mad: .. I dont even remember how many names that dadi-wala donkey mentioned the ceremony was ok but there was no story no rhythm ... a grand opening like this is supposed to have a story or theme and I think that was clearly missing ... Above all Jai Ho may mean a lot to Indians but non-Indians remember it as a song from a movie showing Indian slums so its about time we stop playing it at every freaking international event. I agree about Jai Ho but rest was absolutely flawless .. 10/10 from me for sure
Cricketics Posted October 3, 2010 Posted October 3, 2010 I enjoyed it and a lot of the concepts were very good and they kept it an Indian ceremony, perhaps taking a cue from the Beijing Olympic ceremony. Kudos to the organizing committee for the ceremony and giving it an Indian flavor. 10/10 :hatsoff: I thought they'd keep it all Indian, which they managed to do but call me picky but was that a Caucasian dancing with ARR in the Jai Ho song? :--D The Jai Ho song eclipsed the theme song IMO. :sherlock: it was on CBC (globaltv) yaar... finished now\ Man i had to watch on crappy stream. but it was worth it. Brilliant job done by Delhi and INDIA. WELL DONE.. PROUD MOMENT
Desi Cartman Posted October 3, 2010 Posted October 3, 2010 Is it delayed on DD cuz ceremony finished 20 mins ago anyway good night

diegovegaz Posted October 3, 2010 Posted October 3, 2010 never imagined we could pull off the fantastic spectacle flawless!!!!!!!!!! i missed team india's entry :((
SachDan Posted October 3, 2010 Posted October 3, 2010 While watching the ceremony, a thought came to my mind. Last time we hosted a huge sports events was in 1982 and we won the cricket WC next year. Another big sports event being hosted and the cricket WC is next year.....:--D B->

ViruRulez Posted October 3, 2010 Author Posted October 3, 2010 agree with the last point. sick of that effin song agree ... I expected ARR to end with Maa Tujhe Salaam Vande Mataram instead of this repeated song.. that would have been a lot better
