This thesis explores the dimensions and causes ofsocial income poverty in Rural Pakistan, focusing onnutrition and health. The analysis also teststhe ?efficiency-wage? hypothesis which links betterhealth to better income via higher productivity. Theresults show that serious nutritional and healthpoverty exists within the sample. Other key findingsare: firstly, the need for subsidised food andnutrient support programmes is emphasised; next, thepotential of food prices as policy tools to improvehealth and nutrition emerges repeatedly; andthirdly, human capital (in particular own educationand mother?s schooling), as well as villagefacilities such as health care, sanitation, andwater supply, are consistently observed to boostnutritional and health status of both children andadults. The existence of an ?efficiency-wage? nexusis also supported by the findings. In general, theneed for investment in human capital and socialinfrastructure emerges strongly, with clearintrinsic benefits, but also due to the spinoffs itgenerates in terms of higher potential levels ofproductivity, and hence overall economic development. ...

When Raja's dad goes to the three uncles, he is uncertain whether Raja can meet the demands of all the three uncles, that is can Raja be physically fit, religious, and ultra modern, all the same time?

Must See
Mothers and their enduring, sacrificial love have long been celebrated in Indian films. In Baabul, fathers get a turn at admiration. The title is a Hindi term of affection used by daughters for their dads. However, the film starts out as a story about a father and son who are best friends--Balraj (played by Amitabh Bachchan) and Avi (Salman Khan). Avi falls in love with an artist named Milli (Rani Mukerji) and marries her. Although Avi is pretty cheesy and his courtship of Milli saccharine sweet, he's so smitten with her, so devoted to his dad, and eventually so attentive to his own son, that you can't help but like the guy. When the story takes a sharp turn halfway through the film, we learn the extent of Balraj's paternal love, this time for his daughter-in-law, as he goes to great lengths--at the expense of tradition and his family's sense of honor--to ensure her happiness. The main actors--all giants in the Hindi film industry--are at their charismatic best. Baabul is a melodramatic masterpiece and a tribute to selfless fatherhood. - The Bollywood Ticket: The American guide to Indian movies (Subscribe: The Bollywood Ticket)

Boring
I didn't care all that much for this movie.Its a superficial look at being a widow and remarriage. Unless you are a fan of the actors I'd give this one a pass.
As far as performances I really can't say too much positive about any of them. Bachchan has played this role a million times before and has done so better.Rani doesn't have the depth or the sensitivity to portray these types of characters. My opinion of her performance here is the same as with KANK.I don't find myself sympathizing with her characters despite the bucketfull of tears she's shed in both roles.Salman was playing Salman. Seriously, why do directors keep casting him. His relationship with Rani's character had zero credibility with me.John Abraham was okay but besides looking good, he really doesn't bring much to the character.He can't even dance and that's a no no when your a Bollywood actor.
Overall, this movie was one big dull experience.

Slow....
This movie actually gets 3 and a ½ stars.The first hour and a half of the movie is spent just getting Rani Mukherjee and Salman Khan married.Before marriage, Rani Mukherjee plays this stuffy, rude and uptight character. But for some reason, we are supposed to think her character is cute.I don't think if someone was going to marry me and they called my Dad a "sanki buda" (senile old man) it would be cute at all.But after marriage, her character improves.There is even no conflict in this movie until the last 15 minutes, and even that gets solved in this unconvincing 5 minute speech.John Abraham is average, so is Salman Khan.Hema Malini's voice drags in some areas and Amitabh Bachan does a pretty good job overall. The good thing about this movie is that it was light hearted and nice to watch. But it does not really have a story or any situation. ... Read more

An audio CD, not the movie itself--but still good!
Although it is hard to tell, this CD is the SOUNDTRACK to the movie Marigold. It is NOT the DVD of the movie.

Still, if you have seen the movie and you like it as much as I do, you probably have favorite songs that you would love to listen to again and again. Here is where to get those songs! Unfortunately, the CD is out of print, so you might need to find the music in other places, such as one of those services that provides downloadable music. I put the music from this CD onto my Apple iPod classic 160 GB and enjoy listening to my favorites.

The songs are by turns tender, sweet, romantic, and dynamic. I love them all, though my favorites are Seven Stages of Love, That's Love, and Tan Man (which accompanies one of the best scenes in the movie--the one where Marigold starts to improvise in her dancing; it's the volcano scene, for those of you who have seen the movie). The songs on this CD are:

1. Yeh Pyaar Kya Hai - Seven Stages of Love
2. Yeh Pyaar Hai - That's Love
3. Paagal Si Saari Leheren - Beach Blanket Bollywood
4. Sachha Pyaar - the Meaning of Love
5. Tan Man - Marigold Erupts
6. Listen to the Music (English)
7. The Meaning of Love (English)
8. Seven Stages of Love (English)

Love the Mix!
I love this movie, I rented it in blockbuster, and I just had to have it. I mean it's one of my favorite bollywood movies. It makes more sense to a Westerner. You get it in "her" point of view. I also like the fact that it wasn't like a cheesy bollywood movie like they are known to be sometimes, it was funny, sweet, sad, and beautiful. ... Read more
