Arundhathi


பல நாட்களுக்கு பிறகு ஒரு நல்ல விறுவிறுப்பான படம் பார்த்த திருப்தியை தந்தது அருந்ததீ திரைப்படம். கிராபிக்ஸ் காட்சிகளாகட்டும், மிரட்டும் இசையாகட்டும், அனுஷ்க்கா மற்றும் சோனு சூதின் நடிப்பாகட்டும், டப்பிங் குரலாகட்டும் அனைத்துமே மிக அருமை. பல இடங்களில் வன்முறை அதிகமாக உள்ளது என்பது மறுக்க முடியாத உண்மை. பலருக்கு அந்த காட்சிகள் கண்களை மூட வைக்கும்.

ஒரு மூர்க்கனை ஒரு பெண் கொல்கிறாள் ஆனால் அவளால் அந்த மூர்க்கனை முழுவதும் கொல்ல முடியவில்லை அவன் ஒரு அகோராதிபதி. அவன் அந்த பெண்ணின் மறு ஜென்மத்திலும் அவளை துரத்துகிறான். அவனிடம் இருந்து அவள் எப்படி தப்பிக்கிறாள் என்பதே கதை.

இந்திய திரைப்படங்களுக்கு மட்டும் ஆங்கில திரைப்படங்களை போல ஆடியன்ஸ் இருந்தால் அருந்ததீ மற்றொரு மம்மி என்பதில் சந்தேகமே இல்லை.

Citizens

Whenever elections comes there comes a set of people asking people to vote. They also say if we dont vote then we dont have the right to talk about politicions. WTF. voting is an act of suicide. Where you are only given an option of choosing the way. Poison, Hanging, Gun and so on. Why the F should I choose? People have been screaming about bringing in some kind of rules for people who can participate and who shouldnt but nobody seems to care.

They say if you are not willing go there and say you dont want to vote. My foot. There are some geniuses who say since good people didnt come to politics bad people are ruling the world of politics. Anyone in right mind cannot come into politics now for the simple reason of fear of life and not because they are not interested. Within minutes you will be terminated.

A simple counsellor gets killed due to act of vengence. Shankar potrayed it very well in the movie Mudhalvan. The good guy can only taste bad things. Though Shankar ends the movie as if good triumphs over evil this will not happen in reality. The good guy will be snuffed out even before he can realise he has been snuffed.

So it will be better if these guys who advice us to vote and participate in politics take a hike.

My vote is for the beautiful girl below.

Yavarum Nalam



Saw this movie on friday. This movie is now the talk of the town/media in chennai. The theater was full which showed that the movie is not a disaster.

The story? Almost most sites has talked about it. In brief a TV serial starts to resemble a familys life. Is someone playing with the family or something playing with the family? The answer is told in a different way.

Except for the music there is no horror for most of the time. The only scary thing they have tried on camera angle is to show the bottom of the lift. The songs, there are songs but looks like they have been cut short, not that we miss them in a horror movie.

The suspense is good when they reveal the suspense it does make us say "ohhh ok ok". The first half drags a little with not much happening. You can notice most of the shots are close up shots, they have not tried to show the city much as this is a bilingual. There is a drama kind of feel as most of it happens inside a house. The colours I felt were little dull may be they wanted that look and feel.

Overall for the climax you can watch it. If only they had made it little more scarier ....

Election

Party leaders are openly bargaining for seats. They say we will join the alliance with whichever party gives more seats. There used to be a time when atleast to the public they will say they are joining the so n so alliance for such policy reasons and not because of number of seats.

Now we have moved to the next logical step of accepting the truth on the number of seats.

The logical way to wipe out the number of small parties would be to not include them in any of the alliances. The bigger parties should take that step but they are not ready to take chances as the voting mentality of average Indian is highly unpredictable we dont know why someone votes for some party. So they wont reject chota parties and with each election the number of such parties are in the rise.

There are people who strongly ask us to vote and not loose our right. In the process we are to choose between the best among the worst. All the parties concur on that one thing, making sure not a single good guy/party survives so that the entire pie can be had by them.

Long live democracy.

PMK

Not a single party in India can be called a good one but still there are some parties who ride on other parties and slowly spread their wings. One such Party is PMK. PMK won single seat in its first assembly election and then four seats and then now its posing as if its party to reckon with.

Why am I suddenly shouting about PMK? Last night there was a procession by PMK super duper cadres through GST road. They had put so many banners, flags and tube lights all through GST road till Guindy. Yes there were Vaazhai Maram as well.

Should it be called Paatali Makkal Katichi or #$%#$ Makkal Katchi I dont know they created total havoc in GST road. The traffic was severly affected. All these idiots should be mass murdered. Unless someone teaches these idiots a lesson through polls these pests cannot be stopped.

Again its not just the PMK the entire bunch of parties in India are rotten. One by one they have to be terminated.

Order

Courts have asked all encroachments in TNagar should be removed. This order was give long time back and still there are debates going on whether it should be removed or not and the HC just keeps extending deadlines.

There are encroachments in 1000 other places should a case be put for each of those places? Isnt it common sense or the duty of the officer for that area to remove encroachments?

Helmets were made mandatory by the court and we can see still 70% of the people not wearing Helmets.

HC asked garbagse should not be dumped in Pallikaranai Marsh but I can still see people dumping garbage there.

Law college students fight as if they are no 1 rowdies.

Lawyers clash with police HC becomes a bloody mess.

India condemns the shooting at srilankan players. India is not able to keep its house in order but comments on neighbours house.

What a joke !

FARGO



Saw this movie over the weekend and was pleasantly surprised that it lived upto its hype.

From the locales to the perfect cast almost everything was likeable in the movie. Macy was great as the husband, McDormand was nice as detective, Buscemi was super cool as the kidnapper.

The movie though involves lot of bloodshed but it doesnt movie like a normal movie with such bloodsheds. It moves at a slow pace with characters being more natural.

The snow covered locales are beautiful. The statue of Pal Bunyan in Brainerd looks haunting in certain angles.

It is one movie you can give a try if you like movies that doeant boast of any special vissual/sound effect but moves at natural pace.

Cycling in Chennai

 Rode a cycle after almost 13 years. The one before 13 years was also a just few 100 meters. There was a cycle which was collecting dust and...
