Undying Passion (My first english poem.. )

This is the place
on the busy street...
beautifully sitting there
in the midst
of the glowing lights
fully covered with glass...
shining like a star
from a little far
people never forget
to take a glimpse
when they cross by..

There...
I see in front of me
a beautiful angel
dressed in brown...
she swept me off my feat
at the first sight.

She’s hot, soft & tender
at my first touch...
longing to bring her
close to my mouth
I hold her gently
and kissed her...
she just melts in my mouth.

I kissed her
here and there
and all over.
Beyond my control
started biting her
softly everywhere
she’s so juicy...
a moment of passion
hard to forget.

The kiss and
the taste of her
soft skin still stays on
my lips and mouth.
I feel its presence...

So precious...
the little time
I spent with her.
Memory of this little time
will stay with me forever
and I cherish
the moment of passion
we both shared.

While I depart
I promised her
that I will meet her
next Sunday
the same time.

While the kisses
I still can taste…
Its time for me
to thank her.

Thank you
‘McDonalds Chicken’
for the way you
made me feel today.

I’m loving it!

Theeratha Vilayattu Pillai - Movie Review

Cast: Vishal Krishna, Tanushree Dutta, Neetu Chandra, Sarah Jane Dias,
Director: Thiru
The whole story of Theeratha Vilayattu Pillai moves around a guy Karthik who is from upper middle class. He always wanted best in his life and so with his lifepartner. He decides to love 3 girls and select one of them who is the best among them.


Karthik identifies three girls, fools them, and finally wins their hearts. Tejaswini (Neetu Chandra), a millionaire but has a bitter experience of love failure in the past. Jyothi (Tanushree Dutta), an athlete who hates guys, and Priya (Sarah Jane), Ethiraj student. The story is how these girls bring all trouble to him and karthik overcoming these problems.

Of the 3 girls , Neetu Chandra walks away with the honours. She stuns with her good looks and impresses with her good expressions and acting skills. She gave a stunning and matured performance. She rocks especially in the revenge scenes where she says "Good Luck" to Vishal. She's sexy and sizzling on the screen..
Tanushree and Sarah are a big dissapointment. Sarah at any given point she acts expressionless and there is absolutely no lipsync.

The comedy of Santhanam, Mayilsami and Sathyan provide laughter throughout and especially the first half its Santhanam and Sathyan, who take the credit for a reasonably entertaining the audiences. Good work by both of them.
Prakash Raj springs out suddenly from nowhere, introducing himself as Jyoti’s brother. Its unbelievable  that an accomplished actor like Prakash Raj would accept to take up such roles. Sneha does a cameo. 

Music by Yuvan is also bad , The background score is ok, when compared to the songs.

Overall the movie's unconvincing script and immature presentation makes it a failure. Director has chosen a storyline laced with romance, glamour and fun but has failed to present it in a convincing and interesting manner.

What works:  Neetu Chandra, Santahanam comedy.
What doesn't work: sarah Jane & Tanushree dutta acting, immature scripts.

"PERAANMAI" MOVIE REVIEW

Hi Friends,
It's a very long gap after my last post. Yes, it's about an year now. ... I am again back to update this blog.  Essentially because I've been pretty busy. (No.....I was lazy). This is my first blog for this year.

I was hosting a Get Together  party/treat to my team for my birthday. We met at hotel Pandyas at Vadapalani at 1 pm finished our lunch and headed to Kamala Theatre which is right opposite to Hotel Pandyas. The movie we watched was 'Peraanmai'. Probably this Diwali's first release..not too sure.

This film directed by S P Jananathan deals with an entirely different theme and storyline but way too far from the reality (Artificial).Jayam Ravi is the forest officer. Movie opens with a launch of satellite called 'Pasumai' for the benefit of agriculture. Then comes Tiger hunting naturally our hero Ravi brings the tiger. How he defeated the tiger is unknown but he is the super hero and that’s it. Ravi is a tribal and he becomes forest officer by his hard work & dedication. Ravi performs his job well. He is trim and suits perfect for the role losing his oodles of weight.


Next comes the girls from Rosa College journeying to Velli Malai for an NCC camp, led by Sister Victoria (Urvashi).Frankly speaking her role in this movie is bland and wondering how she even opted for it. There are 5 characters (girls)Jennifer, Kalpana, Thulasi, Ajitha and Sushila. Ravi will be the trainer of these girls. In addition to training NCC cadets, in his spare time, he educates the children & adults of the forests. Director has used this as a platform to convey communist thoughts through out the film. Most of the places the dialogues were muted I guess it’s censored.


Ravi tries to train the girls; but they dislike him just becos he is from lower caste. These girls go out of their way to trap Ravi into a rape scheme, one of them walking nude around the college (not sure which college permits this behaviour from its girls). Even Ganapathi Ram, the senior officer himself, goes out of his way to insult Dhruvan whenever he gets a chance and treats him worse than an animal. Ravi expresses in very subtle way in all those scenes which is appreciable. 


During the process of training 5 NCC girl cadets in the dense jungles, Ravi’s team stumbles upon a shocking discovery which could be dangerous to the nation. How the team counters the enemy and protects the nation from foreign hands forms the rest of the story. The first half of the movie goes in a slow pace which picks up momentum in the second half after spotting foreigners in the Indian forests and the action sequences that follow.
The five girls have tried their best, running around in torn clothes and sporting injuries.This time, the audience erupts in genuine laughter. That's an emotion you get often in this style of movie which tries so hard to be serious but unfortunately has the opposite effect. (Hilarious without an intention so.. ). Jayam Ravi’s climax sequence is power packed and is praiseworthy.

The plus points of the movie are Ravi's stunts he is trim, fit, packs a mean punch and brings a sincerity to his role and the reason you an even sit in your seat and watch the movie. The second one is great locations, cinematography, sentiments.

On the flip side, though the theme is something new, this movie lacks in the department of credibility. Ordinary NCC cadets, handling sophisticated machinery is too hard to believe. It is also not explained how Ravi handles the latest missiles. The way girls handled the machines and bombs gives an artificial feeling and feels hilarious. And next are dialogues given by girls  which is nasty.
Overall my comment would be that even this movie is on a serious note but it ends up being an hilarious without an intention of it. !

Ashitha...

DRINK WATER ON EMPTY STOMACH!

Hi,

I just received a forward mail this morning saying the importance of drinking water in the empty stomach. So I thought I place it in my blog.

It is popular in Japan today to drink after immediately after waking up every morning. Furthermore, scientific tests have proven its value. We publish below a description of use of water for our readers. For old and serious diseases as well as modern illnesses the water treatment had been found successful by a Japanese medical society as a 100% cure for the following diseases:
Headache, body ache, heart system, arthritis, fast heart beat, epilepsy, excess fatness, bronchitis asthma, TB, meningitis, kidney and urine diseases, vomiting, gastritis, diarrhea, piles, diabetes, constipation, all eye diseases, womb, cancer and menstrual disorders, ear nose and throat diseases.


METHOD OF TREATMENT:
-------------------

1. As you wake up in the morning before brushing teeth, drink 4 x 160ml glasses of water
2. Brush and clean the mouth but do not eat or drink anything for 45 minute
3. After 45 minutes you may eat and drink as normal.
4. After 15 minutes of breakfast, lunch and dinner do not eat or drink anything for 2 hours
5. Those who are old or sick and are unable to drink 4 glasses of water at the beginning may commence by taking little water and gradually increase it to 4 glasses per day.
6. The above method of treatment will cure diseases of the sick and others can enjoy a healthy life.

The following list gives the number of days of treatment required to cure/control/reduce main diseases:
1. High Blood Pressure (30 days)
2. Gastric (10 days)
3. Diabetes (30 days)
4. Constipation (10 days)
5. Cancer (180 days)
6. TB (90 days)
7. Arthritis patients should follow the above treatment only for 3 days in the 1st week, and from 2nd week onwards – daily.

This treatment method has no side effects, however at the commencement of treatment you may have to urinate a few times.

This makes sense ... The Chinese and Japanese drink hot tea with their meals ..not cold water. Maybe it is time we adopt their drinking habit while eating!!! Nothing to lose, everything to gain...

A serious note about heart attacks:
· Women should know that not every heart attack symptom is going to be the left arm hurting,
· Be aware of intense pain in the jaw line.
· You may never have the first chest pain during the course of a heart attack.
· Nausea and intense sweating are also common symptoms.
· 60% of people who have a heart attack while they are asleep do not wake up.
· Pain in the jaw can wake you from a sound sleep. Let's be careful and be aware. The more we know, the better chance we could survive...

Actor Raghuvaran is no more :(

Early morning I turned the news channel and to my shock I saw a flash news "Raghuvaran is dead". This is a great loss for Tamil film industry.

I just Read that he is 60 years old and he acted in more than 80 films in Tamil and Malayalam. Raghuvaran has special style for himself and a great voice modulation.

May his soul rest in peace!

Its indeed a HUGE LOSS for Tamil/Telegu Cinema. He was all said & done - one of the best villains in Tamil film industry - and he was always one of my favorite actors.

National Anthem in sathyam cinemas..& Anjaadhe movie review

Hi Friends,

I visited Sathyam cinemas yesterday for a late evening show "Anjaadhey". I was surprised to see National Anthem being played at the beginning of the movie and more surprising that everyone stood up (of course there was a slide asking everybody to stand up).I felt so proud to stand up. It was amazing and very soothing to hear Jana Gana Mana in SPB's voice and it also had him in visual. I am not too sure if this was done earlier, It's been quite some time now that I have been to sathyam. But had a good treat!

Now speaking about Anjaadhe movie, excellent movie I would say. The direction , picturisation and the emotions were excellent. But the songs were quite week (off course there were only 3 songs). This is the year’s best Tamil movie so far and will remain among its best.

This movie is directed by Mysskin. This movie is about two friends, one who becomes a Police and one who should have been a police, takes a different route which is the mix of explosive action, thrilling sequences and mental suffering emotions.

The cast includes Naren, newcomer Ajmal Ameer and Vijayalakshmi of Chennai 600028 fame in the lead roles. The film also stars actor Prasanna who is coming out with a never before seen role. Great performance by Prasanna. We have seen him only in his usual choclate boy role and he did a splendid performance and plays a role of serial rapist and the king of the kidnapping gang.I would say this is a courageous performance from this actor.

Actor Pandiarajan, was superbly cast as one of the kidnappers, delivers a performance that virtually reintroduces the actor to his fans and all audiences.Vijayalakshmi plays Kiruba’s sister, and in love with Sathya. she has done a commendable job.But the dream song could have been performed better.

Some of the action sequences are brilliant. And the emotions have depicted so well especially in the scenes where a flower seller, who helps Sathya rescue a dying man, has a nylon cover wrapped around a leg wound, and sathya's friend kuruvi's death and as well as one of the villain(one among the kidnappers gang, sorry forgot the name) getting shot by prasanna in front of his son. The emotions were depicted so clearly and given equal weightage to the movie.

Overall the movie Anjaadhe was excellent in all ways and a must have DVD at home.
