Presentations could be juvenile yet vulnerable..
It is my firm conviction that presentations in any form, catering to a larger spectrum of the elite and educative crowd has it’s own charismatic influence in a very subtle yet appealing manner. Many might beg to differ, but my stand on this aspect of the competency remains unruffled. Presentations need not be very formal unless youContinue reading “Presentations could be juvenile yet vulnerable..”
IPL Diary – What a final!!
As Harsha Bhogle aptly conveyed the message: ‘The magnificent campaign of Mumbai and Sachin Tendulkar in IPL 2010 has come to an end.’ Without doubt, CSK were the superlative team of the day and fought back in to the tournament to take the title home. For me, the star for Chennai was Suresh Raina. HeContinue reading “IPL Diary – What a final!!”
Facing Ali – The Retrospective of A Great Champion!
I cannot term ‘Facing Ali’ as a biopic. Neither can it be considered as a documentary. For me, it is a narration of one of the most prolific and iconic figures in sporting history, from his most revered contemporaries who have witnessed and known ‘Muhammed Ali’ as a fighter, a sportsman, an ambassador and aboveContinue reading “Facing Ali – The Retrospective of A Great Champion!”
IPL Diary – The story of two legends..
This is in retrospective of 2 well fought games that yielded comprehensive results. And sterling performances from two giants made the outcome look effortless. The first game I am talking about is the clash between KKR & RCB. KKR have been performing inconsistently throughout and their performance has been patchy. RCB on the other hand, have slowlyContinue reading “IPL Diary – The story of two legends..”
What makes life worth living it for..??
This is probably one of the most frequently asked questions which is more frequently ignored. I think it’s time we start putting a heavy price tag on ourselves, for what we are, for what we have achieved phenomenally in all these years of voracious learning and start paying tributes to our capabilities, which by far,Continue reading “What makes life worth living it for..??”
When ‘Dada’ came in to his own..
I have always been convinced with the fact that Sourav Ganguly is a matchwinner. And this belief of mine was re-established today. His dazzling innings of 88 off 54 balls was studded with 9 hits to the fence and 5 massive over boundaries. The ‘Prince of Kolkata’ was back in his elements today and dominatedContinue reading “When ‘Dada’ came in to his own..”
I want my uTube back..
When my usual tryst with uTube commenced today morning, I was stunned to see a new look version of the legendary library. To compound problems further, I was shocked and bewildered to find that the URL links for my concurrent downloads were conspicuously missing. Omigosh!!!?? Please don’t tell me that the pre-beta and the subsequent beta versions would lackContinue reading “I want my uTube back..”
Shutter Island – A thriller that will blow your brains off..!!
I always look forward to a Martin Scorsese film with loads of expectations and the prospect of witnessing a riveting drama at it’s best. And this thriller sweeps you away with a kind of raw yet subtle intensity, that has been a trademark in all Scorsese flicks. The entire set up of the maverick institutionContinue reading “Shutter Island – A thriller that will blow your brains off..!!”
An experiment with life (Not an excerpt)..
If you closely look at the numerous causes for pandemonium around our lives, evidently all roads would lead to ‘Us‘. And we, the ‘humans’, god’s most superlative creature in this planet earth, strive to make things worse, with an outside and a rear perspective to design things in a personalized fashion. And, we are quite emphaticContinue reading “An experiment with life (Not an excerpt)..”
When Sachin bats, ecstasy rules the roost..
Today, I had the honor of witnessing a gem of an innings from the legendary willow of my ‘Boss’ (from the beginning to the celebrated ending ) after really long time, and I don’t care if it came in the shortest and the least favored format (at least for me) of the game. Well, actually it doesn’t matter where he bats, what isContinue reading “When Sachin bats, ecstasy rules the roost..”
Aayarithil Oruvan – A mishap that became a disaster..
I always thought that Selveraghavan had some logic in his movies, even though I have never been a great admirer of his so called quintessential yet realistic approach of filmmaking. But ‘AO’ has surpassed all levels of insanity. Undoubtedly, it is one of his most pathetic works till date and I really felt that IContinue reading “Aayarithil Oruvan – A mishap that became a disaster..”
