New chapter begins

After a long hibernation, here comes my first post after my vacation. My life at NITT has come to an end. Now I'm a provisional Engineering graduate. I'm joining Verizon Data services India Pvt Limited at Chennai(The best and only option I'd).Atleast i'm happy to get this job after weeks of frustration and tension, i've get a joining date.

There were so many times where i'd asked this question during all these days of distress, " Why me always..GOD". Now when i'm able to see some light at the end of tunnel and many of friends still in darkness, i think, "GOD has chosen me for some reason".
Like A.R.Rahman sir said," There are two genius( M.S.Viswanathan and Ilayaraaja ) sitting with me on the stage, I think GOD has chosen me to get the award on their behalf." How true it is. We dont ask that question when we are happy and chose to ask it during distress.

@ my juniors
The worst of recession cloud has passed. you can follow the Obama mantra-HOPEYou will pass these testing times where uncertain future beckons your instincts. I'll miss your presence, those nakkals,nayyandi during Pragyans,NITTfest,Sensors. I'll miss ur comments on my facebook quizzes and status updates.

@fellow fresh corporate workers
End of an ordeal at NITT and new corporate world calling us with both hands. We still don't know if we are worth of the Fat compensation packages given to us. Morally we need to some professional ethics and be true to conscience. Like Dr.ManMohan's team, have a 100 day agenda and accountability criteria.

@US/UK/GERMAN/Swiss univ studs
Dont get overboard with your Indian image and get thrashed by natives for racial abuse. Get educated and come back to India and serve these Indian people. I know people who hate(hate max) India and dont wanna return to the so called stupid,unhealthy,unorganised place. You(ppl who hate) are cowards and hypocrites who wanna run away from the problems rather than facing them.

@successful people
Best thing abt successful people is they share their success. Helping a friend in need is the pinnacle of success. After all a friend's friend is our friend too.. (from Nadodigal)

Stay hungry..Stay foolish..god speed!!! :D :D

R.I.P Thriller Jackson

Whether its controversies or his new album or any tidbits abt MJ, it would leave have an huge impact with his fans. I remember, when i was spellbound by Prabhu Dheva in Mukkala Muquabula song from Kadhalan, the respect and admiration for Michael Jackson grew further. An idol for the next generation POP singers and choreographers, He's truely the King of POP. Was looking forward to Rahman meeting MJ in his comeback concert. Things go otherwise...
GOD speed !!!
RIP MJ :)

Iruvar : The Duo

Just watched(not first time) this movie on Star Vijay and couldn't stop myself from blogging.

The movie is the fictional account of two big stalwarts of TamilNadu, M.G.Ramachandran aka MGR and M.Karunanidhi aka kalaignar. This is the only movie which showcases these two superstars characters and its a masterpiece for the Genext, to know about their lifes and how tamil cinema and Dravidian Politics amalgamated. This is one of my favourite scenes. Portrayal of even the minutest details from the leaders extramarital affairs to their respect for each other in their final years.



The casting cannot be so perfect in any movie, but Mani sir does it again. Prakash Raj, Mohanlal play the lead supported by Revathi,Tabu, Gouthami, Aiswarya Rai(JJ's role), Naaser( Annadurai's role), the movie comes with a power packed performance. Prakash Won his National Award for His role of a writer/politician.

Music by Rahman sir was Outstanding. Its not easy to compose music of a period film with reality. Those Background Bgm enhances each scene and carries the viewers into that period.

Santhosh Sivan's cinematography is a class act. The apt lighting and filming requires a head bow to this technical superstar.

I would fail in my duty if i miss Vairamuthu, in a movie which has lead characters as a tamil writer/politician. His Rebellious "kannai katti kollathae" and "Aayirathil Naan Oruvan" , Romantic "Narumagiyae". His kavidhaigal also stands out in this movie, especially " Udal Mannukku.. Uyir Tamilzhukku.. Idhu Urakka solvom Ullagirkku".

I thank mani sir for taking this gr8 fictional biopic, to show movies and politics got intertwined and give us an idea of the life of two great human beings.
