I just hate Monday, 18 February 2008

I don't know why, I don't know how, I don't know about tomorrow. I just hate Monday, 18 February 2008. I know this doesn't make much sense, but its been boiling within me for hours, and I just had to say this... I HATE TODAY!

MOOD :

I still feel insecure

I steel feel nothing

I still feel down n low

But Im sure its not sorrow

Sometimes, I feel unimportant

and mostly, inferior

Inferior to everyone

I feel like a loser

Loser in my own eyes

and maybe, others

Sometimes there is disrespect

In my own eyes

Wherever I am

Or whatever I do

I still feel like a loser

And maybe I always will

I dont stand up for myself

And preach the whole world

What a great loser

And left all alone

With only doubts n questions

All against myself

I reject myself proudly

I feel like a loser

I question my own beliefs

What can be worse

I love to cribble

And Even know that I am
I am just another loser wasting my time

With heads up in the sky

And I always dream

Only dream

Dream that I wish I could do that

But i think i will only dream

I feel like a loser

And maybe I always will

Kuchi kuchi rakkamma...

9 Things I Hate About Everyone

Prelude : I've tried some sorta Maddox stuff here. No offence.

1. People who point at their wrist asking for the time... I know where my watch is pal, where the hell is yours? Do I point at my crotch when I ask where the toilet is?

2. People who are willing to get off their a** to search the entire room for the TV remote because they refuse to walk to the TV and change the channel manually.

3. When people say "Oh you just want to have your cake and eat it too". Damn Right! What good is cake if you can't eat it?

4. When people say "it's always the last place you look". Of course it is. Why the hell would you keep looking after you've found it? Do people do this? Who and where are they?

5. When people say while watching a film, "did ya see that?" No Loser, I paid 50 bucks to come to the cinema and stare at the damn floor!

6. People who ask "Can I ask you a question?"... Didn't give me a choice there, did ya sunshine?

7. When something is 'new and improved'. Which is it? If it's new, then there has never been anything before it. If it's an improvement, then there must have been something before it, couldn't be new.

8. When people say "life is short". What the hell??? Life is the longest damn thing anyone ever does!!! What can you do thats longer?

9. When they resist deliberately to comment here .

NOTE : In the second part of the prelude. I lied. ;)

Yeh dil mange more :)

Baby chick, white chick, have you any dress,

Yes honey, yes honey, three wardrobes full,

One for the fashion, one for my taste,

And one for the tradition that is long down the drain.

It was during this sunday (13-01-2008) when I saw 'Neeya Naana' a debate program in Star Vijay I heard a girl say she spends around 5000-7000 for a month's beautificaion process.. I just thought "Neeyellam nalla irupia?"..Only then I came to know namma thai thamizh naatla paathi ponnunga ipdi than irukanga nu... Kali kaalam da saami..."I want more" is generally the attitude which women have when it concerns anything related to beauty. The moderate size wardrobes do no justice to the dresses, beauty products, jewels and other accessories which a girl owns. Nothing short of an abyss would actually do justice.A girl starts filling up her wardrobe right from her childhood. (Some "modern" girls use these dresses even after they grow up) That is understandable however, a baby always wants more. It is cute then. After seven donkey years, if you still have the same practice, it is obviously more irritating than cute. One of the main reasons a guy tells his lover, "Nee kattina pudavai-oda en kooda vaa" (come with the saree u are wearing) is to avoid having a 500 sq.ft wardrobe in his 800 sq.ft. apartment. So, that is said more with fear than with magnanimity.

The way guys and girls buy dresses can be summed with ease up in one sentence. Guys buy dresses for occasions and girls create occasions to buy dresses. Even a stone age leafy costume on World Environment Day would do because its a new addition to their collection nonetheless.

"Hey new dress is it? What's special?"

Boy (beaming) : Its my birthday you see.

"Hey new dress is it? What's special?"

Girl (how could you ask me such a question?) : Ofcourse..this is second Saturday you know. Got one for tommorow too, heard its the second Sunday.

Though every girl has a mini Naidu Hall at her place, they constantly spot new designs. Ok, nobody would complain if they stopped with the spotting designs thingy. It goes without saying that shopping is due that weekend.

HEADLINES : Common Entrance Tests cancelled for the current academic year.

Mom : That newsreader wears new sarees everyday and all of them are fantastic. Wonder where she gets them.

Aunt : Yeah, last week during the Tsunami news braodcast, she wore a yellow saree with pink border. It had a zari like the one you got for your anniversary in 1905.

Sister : Amma, look at that chain she is wearing, I want one like that.

Dad (to himself) : Bank poi paisa edukkanum. Indha maasam bonus ippadi indha Shobana Ravi-aala naasama poguthu.

Commonplace happenings eh? Its always a mini mega-serial at home even when Tsunmai strikes or WTC collapses.Variety is the spice of life, agreed. But you girls are already spicy enough, dress doesn't matter :-)Similarly, the make-up thingies are usually overdone. Powders, creams, lotions, lipsticks, lipglosses and a dozen other items yet to be named are an integral part of a girls' purse. Makes you wonder if make-up or make-over is the right word for the process.Certain things for which girls go to beauty parlour really make me laugh.

Me : For what are you going there?

Girl : Bleaching and threading.

Me : Bleaching I know, they did that for toilets before all this Harpic and Domex came in...but threading?

Girl : Thats for removing these hairs. Shaping your eyebrows and stuff. They tie a knot with a thread and pull it out.

Me : Tamil-la sonna m***** pu*********?

Even the hottest of babes go to the parlour to become hotter. That's something that puzzles me.Why do girls always have this "Yeh Dil Maange More" attitude? Is it that they never stay content with what they have? Or is it hormonal the way men and sex are inseperable? Why? Kyun? Yaen? Yaendi? Yaenulu?The only time a girl's "I want more" attitude is fruitful is in....guys know what I mean ;-)

Disclaimer : I've described in detail about the situation and I am not complaining. Won't be complaining till I get married atleast :-) So it is just curiosity...which is probably gonna kill this cat? :-)

Note : Feel free to bash the author. Controversies and fights are encouraged :-)Cheers :-)

Taare Zameen Par - Aamir puts SRK in shame, big time

Foreword : This is my 25th post. Thanks for all those who've helped me keep this blog alive. :)

Don't sign off on your list of the Best Films of 2007 just yet, because ladies and gentlemen, the year's most honourable film has arrived. Taare Zameen Par, directed by Aamir Khan and written by Amole Gupte is the one film you have to watch, because it's a film with a big heart, an important issue, but mostly because it's a film that could change your life.

Who can't relate with Taare Zameen Par's eight-year-old protagonist Ishaan Awasthi who can't get his head around his studies? Be it words or numbers, he struggles to make sense of them, falling way behind his classmates, much to the frustration of his teachers and his parents.
Naturally, it doesn't help that his elder brother is a class topper and a tennis champ to boot. Ishaan meanwhile, is a dreamer who's fascinated with little fish, and spends most days punished outside class letting his imagination run riot. At home, he's mixing colours, painting away instead of doing his homework.

Convinced that some strict discipline will straighten him out, Ishaan's father packs him off to a boarding school, much against both his wife and Ishaan's wishes. Unable to deal with this betrayal, Ishaan goes into a shell at his new school, not only failing to show any improvement in his academics, but also no longer inspired to paint. When substitute art teacher, Ram Shankar Nikumbh, recognizes in him all the symptoms of dyslexia, he takes it upon himself to help Ishaan.

First educating his parents about his condition, then urging the school's principal to give the boy more time to catch up, Nikumbh devises unconventional methods to teach the boy, and succeeds eventually in changing his life forever. There should be no doubt whatsoever in anybody's mind after watching Taare Zameen Par that the real hero of this film is its remarkable, rooted, rock-solid script which provides the landscape for such an emotionally engaging, heart-warming experience.

Between the writer and director, they construct some of the most memorable moments you're likely to come across on screen. Take that simple one that illustrates the everydayness of a schoolboy's life - the one in which we see Ishaan biding his time, punished outside class, moon-walking in the corridor and burping away enthusiastically. Or that heart-wrenching scene in which Ishaan's mother discovers a flip-book he made which reveals just how vulnerable he's been feeling.

It's not just the little moments that stay with you, but also the film's crucial scenes, which are handled with such rare maturity. "Meeri maa.." song and the "3 into 9" sequence for example. :)

And then there's that other scene which I consider the most important in the film - the one in which Nikumbh visits Ishaan's home and explains to his parents what exactly is the problem with their son, and how they may have damaged his confidence even further - it's a poignant and delicate scene because Nikumbh is at once confrontational, admonishing, comforting and hopeful, and it works also because it's performed so instinctively by Aamir and the actor playing Ishaan's father.

Plus :

* Darsheel Safary - The boy who was Ishaan - vaippe illa.. sema... I could see him telling Aamir "Macha naan pathukuren, nee konja neram nadikama iru"

* Aamir

* Shankar-Ehsaan-Loy - especially the meri maa song was damn good. Kudos again guys

* Sethu for photography

* Rest of the cast and the crew for the wonderful effort :)

Minus:

The movie was kinda lengthy and the last scene could've been even better :)

Lest you be mistaken, let me make it clear that although it's centred around a dyslexic protagonist, Taare Zameen Par is not a film about dyslexia. Nor is it a film about any disease or disorder. It's a film about parents and children, about the pressures we put on our kids, about how we push them into becoming assembly-line products instead of encouraging them to find their own unique strengths. It's also about finding our heroes.

Verdict: WATCH IT!

Rating : 60/100

First of all let me assure you that I am not doing a Maruthuvar Ramadas stunt here. Name your films Mumbai Express or Mumbai Sexpress, I really wouldn't complain. That's definitely not the issue I wish to touch upon. I don't believe naming a film as Mumbai Viraivu Rayil or Pasanga or Puthusu or Uyir Thozhan would enlighten the masses about Tamil and press the need to use it. That is just bullshit...or to put it in the way those people like it...maattu saani! :-)

But I cannot tolerate the vetti scene people put up. Both guys and gals, in their own ways.

Om Shanthi Om - Pointless!!

I had to break the 'for-heaven's-sake-no-hindi-movies' pact that I made after watching few really,really,really boring crap (like Fida-KANK-Bunty aur babli etc.) as I surprisingly 'wanted' to watch Om Shanhi Om.Even now I coudn attribute any particular reason for that odd intuition ;-) . And I did watch it last weekend.

Let's get it straight - Farah Khan's Om Shanti Om is nothing more than an escapist masala film, albeit one that is faring better than Sanjay Leela Bhansali's arty flick, Saawariya, at the box office.What does work in OSO's favour is, the casting. SRK, "talented" newcomer Padukone. Also, the film teems with over 654358 Bollywood stars.

The story, set in the '70s when sideburns and bouffant hairdos were the rage, starts with Om (SRK) and his friend Pappu (Talpade). Both are aspiring actors who can't get beyond landing two-bit roles. However, Om is an optimist who lives by a quote from The Alchemist: "When you want something, all the universe conspires in helping you to achieve it …" . Not only Om but every other character on the big screen utters this thing atleast a hazaar times. Booooring..

And while he dreams of becoming a megastar, unlike his mother (Kher) and late dad, who never went further than doing bit roles, he falls in love with a top-notch actress called Shantipriya (Padukone) . They strike up a friendship after Om rescues her during a stunt gone horribly wrong. Just as Om starts making plans to spend his future with Shantipriya, he learns she is secretly married to film producer Mukesh Mehra, who is planning to marry the daughter of a wealthy filmmaker to gain the funds needed for his next film.When Mukesh realises Shantipriya won't keep quiet about their relationship he takes deadly measures to silence her. Unfortunately, Om dies in the pursuit of saving her.

Thirty years later, Om, reborn as the son of iconic actor Rajesh Kapoor on the same night he died, is living the life he yearned for. However, memories of his past life resurface when Mukhesh returns to do a film with him.And so the story comes full circle as Om decides to avenge the death of Shantipriya by hiring a look-alike to scare Mukhesh into confessing his crime.

The acting part was good. SRK differentiated '70s Om and '07 Om with ease. But my eyes were hooked up with Deepika Padukone. Ithu sema hot machi!!. She was hot, beautiful, elegant and taller than SRK. People were so excited about SRKs six-pack abs. I din have time to notice that as I was engrossed with Padukone's abs. It couldve been more elegant. Kirron Kher's acting was crap. No point in reviewing it. Arjun rampal and Talpade were suave in their performances.

I don know who wrote the dialogues. But avan mattum kaila kedaikatum. Mavane seththa di nee. It was soooooo poor. It was soo boring to hear some cliched dialogues again and again and again in a single movie(eg. "picture abhi bakhi hai mere dost" / that alchemist thing ) It was torturing to see, rather hear the same dialogues from the first half in the second half of the movie. Whatever SRK spoke in the first half, Deepika would say that after intermission. What the fish!! :-)

There are many things that Id like to appreciate and blast about this movie. But that would make this post so big. So here we go.

Shottu

* There is the picturisation of the second song Dhoom Tana wherein we got to see Rajesh Khanna, Jeetendra romancing with Deepika (thanks to special effects), and the
magical fairy talelish song Main Agar Kahoon.

* The awesome sets and costumes, which take you through the nostalgic 70s.

* The Filmfare award sequence - Sema.

* Deepika

* Deepika

* Deepika

* and more Deepika ;-)

Kottu

*Lack of chemistry between SRK and Deepika. There was absolutely no love angle between their characters. The half saw SRK in love, while the second half was a
disaster in this department.

*Badly etched Kirron Kher's character

* Farah's sloppy screenplay in the second half.

* Although my favorite song before watching the movie was Deewangee, I thought it was a bit way too stretched in the movie. It was almost like what 60 min song ?? it
went on and on.

* Story?? Whats story??

* Dialogues... sathyama avan saavu en kailathan...

Having said that, there is no doubt that this movie is going to make loads of money, which is good for many people in this industry. If you are a SRK fan, you'll love the movie. If you are an Aamir Khan fan, you'll love to thrash the movie big time. Im a fan of neither, so , yes its a 3 hour roller coaster, 3 hour circus..blah blah blah. whatever.... This movie is the one which keeps you entertained for the entire stretch but then when you realise its pointless in making and watching such movies , you'll start repenting for spending 100 bucks for it.

OSO - (partly) S.O.S.!!

Afterword : I now realise its pointless in reviewing a pointless movie.. what a sad!! And im back to 'for-heaven's-sake-no-hindi-movies' pact :-)
