Theru koothu - 1
Kittu Mama --> Hello Susee Mami, Tamil Nadu is hot and the heat is making the people to run away.
Susee Mami --> Kittu, are you saying about the sun heat or the assembly elections in Tamil Nadu?
Kittu Mama --> Oh! You are sharp to understand what I meant. The political scenes are changing continuously. Like birds migrate geographically during season, the political people migrate between different parties. Not with the motto of serving people. Only to survive them self and reap the benefits for their descent.
Susee Mami --> Correct, its becoming so common and looks cheap in this stage of politics. Vaiko, shifting his tent from Gopalpuram to Poes Garden. Thriumavalavan moved to two leaves, since he wasn't looked by the rising sun. Sharath Kumar and great Radhika madam moving to madam party and TV:-) Bagyaraj joining DMK, Vijay.T.Rajendar who was trying for his entry into AIADMK suddenly remembered his guru and bagged up DMK in his campaign.
Kittu Mama --> Well said mami. Apart from it many tamil\non-tamil speaking film stars adding salt to DMK\AIADMK. But the star who said "Madam eye mela eye vechu solren..." escaped from scene. But I feel it’s a good move done by him.
Susee Mami --> Yes kittu, if he does or speak anything it becomes an unnecessary hyped topic and feeds more papers to the press.
Kittu Mama --> Looking at the parties’ election promises makes to think us are we heading in the right direction? Are the people in Tamil Nadu requiring free items and low priced rice? Apart from it do they not need anything else? How many years the parties give the promise of low priced rice. Then does it means that we haven't grown at all? People still require some one to give free items for their living? It’s a shame to see these repeated promises for so long years.
Susee Mami --> Not only these, the way the TV channels advertise for their respective parties make us feel awkward. In one of the ad one girl ask her dad, when would we have food? Immediately the father says once the rising sun comes to throne. Does each family head take care of their children or not? Only after rising sun comes we would have food? All these makes as if the people are fools.
Kittu Mama --> Instead of making these promises, they can say that they would initiate a new industry and employ 2000 unemployed youths, they can say they would bring the commodities easy available and provide loan for self-employment. All these make not only more employments, also builds the Tamil Nadu into a fast paced developing state. They can swear to provide good infrastructures to the people. All these mutually build the people and the state.
Susee Mami --> Tamil Nadu politics becoming lower graded and dipping down the graph. The leaders should understand the current trends and make decisions thinking globally.
Kittu Mama --> Seri mami, its time for me to go to work. I would join with you later. Kelambrendima!!
Susee Mami --> Kittu...curd rice pack panni vechuruken...Nalla sapittu. Okava.
Headache:-(
Recently after Kalvanin Kadhali another third rated movie I watched is Patchai Kudhirai. Basically I feel this movie can be classified as a Shakila type movie or movies like Oor Iravu, Antharangal of that sort. Movie had titles of Parthiban, Nametha and so on. Parthiban when he made the title card as written and directed by Ra.Parthiban would have felt bit disgusted.
His earlier movie Kodaikul Mazhai, he said in the trailer "Intha madhiri miyir kochariyum katchigal illai but ana neenga rasipeenga". When I saw the movie, I felt saying like Vadivelu "Un kitta opening ellam nalla thaan iruku ana pinishing seri illayae pa". I heard that after the failure of the above movie he decided to give masala type movie. Ulle Veliya was also a movie which would provide a wrong direction for aspiring creators. But still the movie had some good amount of comedy making you to feel bit comfortable. This movie more than relying in his thoughts and making, he has completely surrendered himself to Nametha.
Nametha, she has taken the lead role in the movie. The whole movie completely rely on her and for which she has given her best with what she can. The boundaries are crossed and nothing is under control. This is what I can say on her. Parthiban to make Patchai Kudhirai a success has given the Arabian Kudhirai a great show.
In spite of all this hungama, there is a small message from the so called creator. The message is servicing to the people in need without publicity. Vare vaa...one and only Parthiban can do it. Again a cyco kind of character. Kodaikul Mazhaiku apprum once again. Ayyo thalai ellam suthuthu. My opinion is Parthiban has lost his creativity. He wants to now succeed and has taken the safer third class approach.
I thought of not writing on this movie but wanted to caution my readers. Movie pathrapuram, review ezhuthunupuram headache thara ore padam Patchai Kudhirai. Intha padathuku, intha peru empaa vechanaanga...puriyaleye..Thalai vali started.
Rajini-toons!

Few of Rajini toons on his latest film Shivaji were forwarded by Srinivas. The above two pics were attractable for me.
Say CHEESE!
First they open and put an injection to make the area numb. The marked area as damaged is dug nicely to present as a well [Kenaru] kind of symbol. After making the construction, a sharp needle type medicine said as oil of cloves is inserted deeply inside the constructed well. Two needles as support to the inserted piece are fixed. Filling is done with other medicines. A temporary closure is made for a 3-4 days. LIFO [Last-in First Out] stack concept is done after some days. The oil of cloves is checked for purity level. If the percentage is low the above whole process is repeated. Mostly it would be repeated. When the medicine inserted is not that much affected, proving that the affected area is disinfected. After this the tooth shape is marked in rubber kind of material as impression and an artificial tooth is built. The tooth can be ordered in Steel, Silver or Ceramic. The price and quality depends on the kind of material chosen. Finally when the day is born for fixing, the oil of cloves is again inserted and then the new tooth is fixed with some hi-tech cement. Every time you go fresh for the above process, 1 or 2 injections are ready for you to bear the pain. The whole process is known as Root Canal Treatment. I was one of the victims for the treatment and suffered the ruthless pain. Oh my god! Such a horrible process, which would make you to feel really pathetic. Dudes, only thing I request now is brush your teeth twice a day and say CHEESE!!
Recovery!
Now days I started to wear flashy dresses like dark green shirt and yellow pant. I speak more for no reason and if some one starts arguing then I somehow make the person run by non-stop speaking. When my relatives speak a topic then I provide statistics on the topic making them to feel why I talked in front of him. My "thopai" comes in between my chest and thigh. I started to apply fair & lovely and powder every 2 hours. Though nobody follow me I say a loud there are lakh people behind me. I started kick the wall in my house hard with my legs trying to jump. The moment somebody sees me they start to escape from my sight. I started to write VB code in MS-windows media player. I was able to realize that something abnormal is happening. When I look back and realized that the changes started to happen after watching Gabbtan film Sudhesi :-) Now I am slowly recovering from the impact.
Shame on earth :-(
After publishing the below post happen to read idlyvadai blog. When was reading the sequence of post, I saw the video of Tamil Nadu Congress Party fights due to diversity among the so called leaders. Here is the --> link. I was feeling very disgusted on the local congress party people for their violent behavior. Just for their personal gains these leaders sit inside A.C. room and make the low level party people to suffer. The man getting the hits from a set of people was pathetic. Might be it looks good in a cinema but definitely not in reality. I couldn't resist writing about this violent, atrocious act for just a position. Padhavi...Panam...Padhavi...Panam...Are these two alone everything in life?
A High Jump!

We have seen in several movies, the hero becoming from zero to hero in one song. But in reality it’s not the case. This man "Ghana" Ulaganathan had raised his bar in one song in the movie Chithiram Pesuthadi. Like Paravai Muniyama in Dhool movie, he has reached the Tamil audience.
I read in Anantha Vikatan magazine about the hardships faced by this man. Though monetarily much benefit wouldn't be, but an identity had gained and has become a popular figure. It’s now his turn to maintain the standards and provide good catchy songs to move further ahead. Vazha Meenu Velagu Meenu... :-)
Man back to Action :-)
It was a surprise and glad to see this man in action. I believe this movie is going to make a tremendous entry in Tamil cinema and would be spoken for years to come. Hail Superstar!!
Super Super ma…
It’s been claimed by them recently as No.1 Tamil daily. You would have guessed now the topic of the post. It’s about the super superma Dinakaran ippo superma... The paper which was almost shattered down has revived its fortune back and hitting the decks as No.1 Tamil daily. Truly a surprise and shock for the other Tamil dailies. Especially for Daily Thanthi paper which has been the number one player in this arena. Daily Thanthi a perfect one stop paper for kolai kollai news, film details, importantly complete coverage of TV programs, occasionally good write up on any subjects and birthday fortunes hasn't lost its essence. Still the sales graph has dipped down a bit. But I bet there is no better quality news paper to suck the oil from bajji :-) Tamilians would definitely accept this fact. It’s the inborn quality of Daily Thanthi paper and solely winning the contest.
If we closely analyze the sudden growth of the Dinakaran, it’s because of the change in the management. SUN network had taken the control of the paper. The main advantage is easy marketing and reach into the public. The additional ad on for the sales is the price. It’s just 1 rupee, which every common man can afford to buy. But still people read ‘OC’ [freely] Dinakaran from their neighbors or go to tea kada to read the paper. The price had made the barbers and tea mudhalalees to take a big shift from Daily Thanthi to Dinakaran.
Apart from the price, the business model that has paved the way to its growth. One is to generate huge quantity and sell it with fewer prices making a marginal gain but reaching the big wide market. This type of business strategy is adopted by Saravana stores, Chennai. Next is revolving all the new projects with in the strength and make a big bang. We all know SUN TV is the base of the SUN network. With this strong base it emerged its branches KTV, SUN music, Surya, Udhaya and so on... Next it stepped into Radio FM as Suryan FM [Kelunga kelunga kettu kittae irunga]. Slowly it covered the section of audio and video media. But all this would have never happened without the strong marketing and the target that hit the screen in SUN TV which eventually reached and peeped into every home of Tamil Nadu.
After making the King Kong entry into the media, it caught hold of evening news paper Tamil Murasu. The ad on Sun TV is popular in every corner of Tamil Nadu. "Chumma nachunu iruku Tamil Murasu". Then it made the entry into the daily morning paper Dinakaran with a 1 rupee selling price and its launch hit the screen of SUN TV. Thus the business model revolves around the strong base SUN TV. The same business strategy is followed by Go ogle where each and every product revolves around its strength "Search". Lazygeek had spoke on several occasion about this business model of go ogle with me.
Though it’s a phenomenal growth to SUN network, it’s a risk to public. What would happen if the entire media gets under the control of SUN network? What ever it says that’s the truth for Tamil people. If it says Kutty Radhika Revathy is right, we need to accept it as right. This is what happened in her issue. Just to make a petty thing hot and there by increasing the sales of Tamil Murasu. This would what happen if the total media goes under the control of one organization. We all know its participation and discrimination in politics.
Though said it’s successful, the quality & content is more important. Let me wait and watch the show before making any conclusion. Super super ma...Dinakaran ippo superma...

T H A M B I
Two main reasons that made me enthusiastic to watch Thambi movie was Madhavan and Kumudam review of the movie. It's been quiet sometime I watched Madhavan on the giant screen. This week went for it and there was good turn around in theatre for the movie. When skimming through the title card the words "Thakkam and Aakam" instead of directed by, drew my attention. The movie was quiet interesting though some of the scenes were dragging and made you itchy. You can feel through out the movie on what the creator wants to convey.
Madhavan had done a decent job and you can see a different Madhavan like in his earlier movie RUN rather than the usual goody goody boy character. In JJ movie, I totally disliked him for his shabby acting and body language. But here he has stood up and delivered to his best. The body language and stunt sequence were good to speak his contribution.
What happens when you think each and everything you write is important and started applying bold, italics, and underline to each of the characters? It looks cumbersome. This is what had happened in the movie. The director wanted to emphasize each and every piece in his movie and it's reflected in the dialogue delivery and action of Madhavan. Every dialogue when Madhavan speaks sees the camera and says loud...Naan seyuven, naan pannuven. If this could have reduced then it would have been better than the current form. The director had made a good attempt to provide a good message and had done it quiet decently.
Vidhyasagar, the music director had done a good job. I heard the songs for the first time and almost most of the numbers were tapping. The songs were good and weren't causing the jarring effect.
Vadivel, Manivannan come, go in the screen. The presence or usage of these personalities weren't justified. They are 1 among the 100 side characters. Pooja looks pretty and had done adequate to her character. The flash back sequence was screen played well and good to justify the lateral character portrayal of Madhavan. Over all it's a good movie to watch leisurely!

I was totally surprised when I heard the news late evening from my papa that Gopalsamy popularly known as Vaiko joined alliance with AIDMK. Right from my college days, I am one among the persons keen in watching the scenes happening in the political stage especially in Tamil Nadu politics. I have seen more balties, but a person who was hyped to be a leader with strong fighting mentality [Porali] fall prey to mere count of seat numbers. Hmm... Definitely, there would have been many other reasons for his jump. But a person said to have fighting spirit and who was been thrown to jail on personal vendetta by the person with whom now the alliance has been formed, is a sheer shame and nonsense. I do admit there could have been several issues with the DMK alliance, but joining the hands with the person who he had sworn to throw from crown a couple of months ago, shows the self-fish attitude. In this situation his credibility had lost and gone to zero value. If he would contest solely or joined third force, he would have been marked as one of the good leaders and his status quo would have crept up in the graph. At last he had showed that "Nanum oru sadharna Arasiyal vadhi". Still Tamil Nadu waits for a true leader who really wants the state to move forward.
The Come Back :-)
Oh yes, it’s a pity for the people who were happy till now, since I wasn't making a scratch at this place. Sorry dudes, I am back in action after a scheduled break. I was feeling odd seeing the dyonara sorry sayonara post daily on the sheet. Ethana naal da tata katauva...
It’s been busy and enjoying for me here in Chennai. The climate in the evening is bit cold and perfectly suits my long ride in the new bike. Apart from these, the moment I enter my home Kolangal, Selvi or Manaivi gives me a warm welcome and makes me feel at home. The Tamil TV channels and the other things specific to Tamil nadu takes me back in delight where contrast I remember the lonely days at Chicago.
After coming back to Chennai watched couple of movies. Not a single movie was to the mark. Every time I go to a movie with zeal, it totally disappoints me. First Aadhi, as said in Kumudam magazine, it’s a huge blow for Vijay for acting stereo type movies. The movie has nothing than the old movie recap in a new title.
Next was Rang de basanti. There was a huge hype given for this very normal movie. When I was in the theatre seeing the banners, I just thought it’s going to mind blowing. But after watching the film, came out with a headache and my hairs were standing like antenna. May be I am not that level to understand what the director wants to convey. But one thing was striking to me, Mudalvan, Indian, Gentleman, Ayudha ezhuthu spoke more on the subject which Rang de basanti tried to speak in the movie as core issue. Only thing appreciative was the screen play with old and new characters. Yes, agreed we need more historic hero’s like Bhagat singh, Bose...to make India a great nation. But as a movie, it was a total let down.
This week latest release Kalvanin Kadhali shortly called as KK was an utter crap. I think S.J.Surya can better stop coming in the screen and concentrate as before in the back ground. There was not a single scene were his dialogue delivery was good. Kathina mattum podhuma Surya, konjam pesaratha uzhunga pesunga, poriyave matengrathu. His high glossy make up makes me feel as if I have come to old koothu drama, where the stage actor acting as Lord Krishna would apply the blue color makeup to the core with shiny chumkees. The movie’s only said plus point is Nayanthara. Dudes don't misconceive as I am appreciating here for her acting. No way!
The above is the grievance of a common film-goer, who loves to watch movies with a difference. But kollywood did not fulfill the hopes. I hope the under production projects satisfy the hungry Tamil film lovers who are waiting for a good film to be watched for this season.
Sayonara to Chicago!
It’s time for me to get back home after this short assignment. Professionally and personally, I learnt few new things here. I am excited to see my family, friends and place after this stopgap. Chennai, bike ride, FM, tea kada, beach, theatres and of course the people hmm... fun to experience them. I am pressing the pause button for blogging from now. Once I settle down, I would restart again. Hope I press the play soon. Dudes, bye for now :-)

This song is from the movie ULLAM KETKUMAE. The song was sung by Hariharan and music by Harris Jayraj. I have got some mp3 cds here from India. I used to hear this song earlier when I was at home. But here in my room, alone and during night when I hear this song its mind blowing and its altogether a different feel. I don't really count how many times I repeat this song in the player. But when I start this song, it continues to repeat till I close this black box. Particularly Hariharan voice jells with the lyrics and the delicate music adds a soft touch. An amazing number to hear. Got added to my list of ever green favorites. o manamae o manamae...
