But all this time,

patted me to be bold and
carried me through the rough patches.

Your everyday

I have heard EOD-End of day, COB-close of business.
When u want some one to do something on a day to day basis, we can recommend the following sentence "PLEASE *** DAILY"
but WOW!!!! What a sentence to communicate it....
PLEASE **** AT THE END OF YOUR EVERYDAY.
Guess who would have told this :):)

Pongal and movies

I am really confused on how to plan my pongal hols this year. U know what!!!! There are 6 movies lined up for this year's release. 3 of them are big names.
1) Ayirathil oruvan -> selvaraghavan movie that is long over due. I cant wait to watch this. I am already with the music of this movie and with slevaraghavan, u will never know what to expect....

2) Vinnai thandi varuvaya - Gautam vasudev menon and ARR have come together...this cannot be missed.

3) GOA - the venkat prabhu movie. Keeping in my mind saroja and chennai -28, this cannot be missed.....

So these are definite movies to watch for....the rest are kutty(dhanush), thiradha villayatu pillai(vishal) and Jaghubhai(sarathkumar and KS Ravikumar)...


How i gonna plan it...god knows...This pongal definitely has a significance because of the mega movie release :):)

Btw, I am still waiting for VTV audio to reach the stores.....waiting impatiently....

Paa and Avatar

Since Dec 6th, i am not sure how time flew by....Still i couldn't come to terms that i have crossed two weeks with nothing much to think except work. It has been hectic and tight. Though i was busy, i took time to watch Paa and Avatar.



Paa is one class of a movie. Beautiful portrayal of emotions by vidhya balan. Ahishek was ok...and i cannot comment on amithab. WOW!!!! The background score by raja still haunts me....The movie was indeed great with subtle humor all the way.


Avatar has been in my list for a long time to watch. And boy, u never gonna believe this. We are near the second weekend since it opened and still, all shows even the weekdays morning evening shows are running full...I was lucky to have a ticket on the opening weekend.


This is one breathtaking movie. The stunning visuals are awesome. Don't forget that this is a 3D movie all the way form the 20th fox symbol till the end credits. Watch it in 3D. I am all eager to watch it again this weekend :):)...though the bgm is not that great, it is ok. At this juncture i have to tell u how much i enjoyed the Indian movie critics who reviewed this movie. I wonder if at any point in their life time have they watched any non-indian movie? These stupid no brain people could applaud the kuppai vettiakran or kurbaan but show there back to AVATAR....

AVATAR - viswaroobam...I am plannig to watch 3 idiots sometime during the new year's eve.

Music of vettaikaran

There has been too much of sms and talks mocking at vijay and his vettaikaran movie recently. And i know everyone enjoyed it whether u being a vijay fan or not. The music of this movie has been criticised and acclaimed by two different clans!!!!!

Although i wouldn't rate this album very high, after a lot of deliberate hearing since i hesitated to hear the same for a long time i must agree that i really liked two songs. Chinna thammarai was really good when i heard it for the first time. The mix of string and bass instrumnets really made it a lot good to hear. Karigalan, a peppy folk song was another track that captured my attention....

The rest of the songs though the lyrics look very odd and ugly, puliurmuthu and naa aducha really keeps you tapping your foot after u are half way through it....

having said that, vijay antony carries his reputation of giving a minimum of two good songs per album....which is a commendable effort.

Why all that pain???

Throwing surprises to people around me has always kept me happy. And when it comes to birthdays of my dear friends, i take an extra effort to do that....Since my school days, me, yuppie and Akkubukku have surprised each other and many others with our birthday gimmicks. During my stay at the hostel, whenever it was a birthday it was a party time for us.

from cutting cake to surprise gifts, to playing virudangam on one's back sharp at 12 we have done innumerable things. All this would not have been possible had people not supported my plans.

And ever since, we stepped into this bloody corporate life, things have not been the same. People started marching the paths in their vicinity. The first few months of my so called career launch in chennai would have strained the hell out of me had manmadhan and viswanathan not been around. They were there always willing to help me out at any point of time, like a 24/7 support service. Raj, Mokkai and manickam have stood by my side by all means till this very minute......And i am indeed happy for having such people around me....

The more i think about my stay in chennai ever since i kept my foot on this bloody beautiful city, i cannot help but thank god and my wonderful parents. God for blessing me with whatever i needed at the right time and my parents for their great upbringing which sowed a lot of good virtues that helped me gain people who really cherished me having in their circle, who went out of their ways to keep me happy and helped me in times of need.

I always found myself in debt before them for their shower of love and affection towards me. These people walked into my life at various point of time for various reasons and i have always been at the receiving end from them.

Why all these feelings suddenly? Am i getting a bit emotional? Answer may not be a NO straight away, coz their is no point to shun away form the truth.

I have always thought about giving something back to these cute people in my life, alas i had nothing!!!! And all i could think was to plan a surprise package for them on their birthday. And as always they were executed successfully though not perfectly :):) with a great deal of help from few good friends.

A birthday occurred last week for a good friend of mine. By all means i decided to throw in a surprise for him by appearing at his doorstep for his birthday right at 00:00 hours. And as planned with the help of raj and few others i did reach his home at 00:00, did the cake cutting ceremony, made all sorts of arts on his face. On the same evening, this guy called me up and asked me "Why all that pain?".

This, i have done last year too. Appearing at the doorstep is a very common thing. Unlike last year, we were separated by a good 400 odd kilometres. I had a hectic office schedule which he was aware of. I left for his home the evening before his birthday, surprised him right at 12 midnight and came back the same day.

If not even these little things, what else am i going to give them all back? After all little things do matter a great deal in this gorgeous life. Seeking an opportunity to keep these people happy have always topped my to-do list.And this is one such chance which keeps coming every year.

Above all there is one more reason why i take all that pain. That will linger in me.....as has always been for a long time....
