Used to sit in the beach sand, when Jobless, to while away the time...

Ocean has expanded its reach - because of Tsunami
Times have improved - because of who!
I have risen - because of hard work
But now I just don't have the time to sit and enjoy

Evano Oruvan!

I have started going for movies in the weekends. This time it was the movie Evano Oruvan.

It was really heartening to see one more director who has brought out a film with a script that he had in mind, not influenced by "what the audience might think" thought.

It was evident from the way the part before title appeared on screen. So I had my expectations for the movie raised further, though my wish for seeing the movie was initiated by some of the stills and few clippings.

As the movie progressed I had one thing wavering at the back of my mind. Is it going to be another movie where those unrealistic dream songs come into the picture lighting the darkest places of the cinema theatre. But this was a movie that had all the things perfectly placed.....

Yes there was not even one dream song....making this a special one. Though Maddy has been performing well, this one will stand out for the way he had portrayed his character. Credit goes to the director for the way he had gone out and framed the scenes. Maddy being the dialogue writer has done exceptionally well. Even those few words/ sentences from the characters in the movie are too good. This is going to add that extra feather on his cap. Certainly this would be a distinct milestone in his career as well as for the director. Hope to expect few more movies of this kind, that creates social awareness.

Overall it was a real good movie. A must watch movie, particularly for this generation reminding the happenings in and around the society.

Life...thirsty values

It was a long time since I played..so with our office colleagues went to the beach to play....it was nice to play on the sand running & fallin around. We all took a break after couple of hours.

I happened to get into a conversation with an ice cream vendor selling some Brand's products.
He should have been in his teens & had come from one of those little villages in our vast country.

I asked him what he wants to/ aspires to become, thinking of the answers he would give!

He dint say the names of any of the business tycoons, name his role models...inface he was not even aware of the names I told him....and I realised how unrealistic my thoughts have become that I am not able to relate to all the situations of another person.

He said "I want to study".

It really shook me hard. I felt his heart saying "Common dude, do you know whom you are talking to, am neither a pass out from a college with a degree nor a bunch of asset holder...am juz one of those who continues to earn my bread skipping my passion for study...He also said Gone is gone no use of talking about it now and stared at the vast sea occassionally looking back to see if anyone is approaching to buy....

There I was standing at the beach at 11 A.M. with all those hard earned marks, degree, current earnings....no one had to hit me hard with a hammer....those words were enough...

I have been aware of all this since I have been an active member of a welfare organisation. But then these kind of realistic discussions makes us aware of the hardships that are faced by those not so lucky human beings. I wanted to do some justice, gave him hope that hard work always pays n he can study anytime. I always talk to these kind of people, crack some joke, make them laugh for a while...will definitely do something for such people's ambitions in the future when I have enough of that often referred to by some as "most important thing in life".......MONEY

But I will continue to shop clothes & gadgets as I have always been doing....but with a conscience that would remind me....of the place where I am & my fellow human beings.....

Reading..

Am not an oracious reader....the shelf on the left lists my list of read books. Does not have those philosophical books or research related but just novels, adventure novels...for the type I am....cannot forget the company of them especially when you work monotonously for hours n come back to ur room filled with no one except your belongings...am glad that I have found a shelf for them...

Long time...now fit

It's been quite a while since i wrote from the day i decided to write regularly. That's not something new that i do. But one thing that i have been doing regularly is jogging/ walking around Besant nagar. Has been really great after doing walking/ jogging after a long time. Infact i am really enjoying sweating out by walk rather than in the Gym. I have lost few pounds now and feeling healthy also!

I guess life is going to be quite interesting as the career gear is gonna change abruptly. Am not too sure wat is in store for me, but as of now am ready to face the song.....lemme see...

Life has been too boring for some time now and i think the bells have to ring aloud now or else i should.

First day

Day was pretty normal as usual. Have been planning to get up early in the morning for a very long time. Well it has always remained unexecuted. Another night is approaching with a hope of getting up early.

Life is not going very briskly at this moment/ period. Sort of guy I am adventure is the first and last resort. But unfortunately am into a career that does not promise much roller coaster rides.

Going around the world has been on my cards for long and I am looking forward to it before marriage.

Day went very normal at office. Actually I had plans to buy a mobile. Went for a walk in the beach and strolled into a mobile shop but was not impressed with the very few models. Am gonna take one tomorrow. Though I may not wake up early...checking into blogger daily is gonna be my routine activity hereafter as I like writing - be it about me, people around me or the world around us.

Favorite's

Though I'm no fan of a particular actor, my list of favorite actors/ films of those which I prefer include ( lets go from south to north ) Surya, Abhishek Bachhan, Ajay Devgan, Hirthik, Shahrukh & Amitabh Bachhan. One person whom I admire much is RGV. Sarkaar is something that I have seen so many times and I always feel like watching it again when I see a clipping from it. What a movie? And the performances too good, that are possible only from a matured cast and a director who has all the frames, has it sculptured in his mind while preparing the script. Manirathnam is another person who has made every Tamilian proud with his creations. Some of his stunning films have the areas of human relations highlighted to a great extent & portrayed very naturally. And this makes one too often feel like that at least one of his characters has characteristics that resemble his/ her's.

Likes [now this is my cooler - shot at home]

Lets start off with the favorite subject for all. Entertainment!

For me in that category, movies come first. After a days hard work/ in the weekends there is nothing that can get yourself relaxed but a good entertaining movie. I enjoy all entertaining movies, irrespective of the cast/ crew. To me acting is something that cannot be expressed to perfection by all. So I look for the frames, making & the screenplay. Over the years my taste for movies have refined itself to an extent where I have started to enjoy the close up shots capturing the expressions of the characters. I can even remember some of the shots that have been etched in my memory forever. I will list out a few afterwards.

Though cinematography is one of the key factors that I look forward in a movie, I also prefer the movies made by certain directors. When the director starts seeing things in a cinematographer's view & the cinematographer sees it from the director's view then the outcome is what we call the viewer's delight. There have been some exceptional movies made by this combination.....

Little more about me..

To be frank I dont have any particular taste for living. My life just goes on without much amusement. I used to anticipate/ expect a lot and now I know thats the way you are not supposed to face things. Take it as it comes and surely our life will be more interesting. I like adventure and few years back became humorous also ( you can say/ my friends say its seriously humour). I like to chat with my family, friends or anyone who's free to talk. Keeping myself away from serious topics like politics and philosophy is my habit. Like to talk on entertainment, society, happenings around the world and more inclined towards wild life. My dream trip would be to the sahara desert or the african jungles(though I would like to pay a visit to switzerland).

About me!

I am sort of a straight forward guy. Some like me & some do not, for that reason! That's obvious and I dont feel for it. Because when I talk with others, I am myself. And being so, they will get the answer through my expressions. Because I am not the kind who talks through the mind but through the heart. But still I am not the type who keeps saying friends are the world, they are everything & friendship is the best.

As the great Chanakya quoted "There is some self-interest behind every friendship. There is no Friendship without self-interests. This is a bitter truth."

But I do respect the human values and relationships. Friendship is also something which brings people together. I am/ will be there for my friends when they need me, to comfort them & to try & sort out issues if they have any.

As I said earlier, for a guy like me its hard to get a friend. I remember my roommate telling me " Sujay, for the type you are if you have well wishers & friends then they are very honest & close to you". I know I might have hurt so many nice people, but still I feel I have been honest when saying/ expressing.

So I would say that I have got real good people who have understood me.
