I always watch RGV’s films with a sense of unpredictability. He is one of those few maverick filmmakers who can make an absolute gem one day and a disastrous dud on the next. Rann, fortunately, falls in the first category. And in the process, has ended up in creating a classic from his stable. TheContinue reading “Rann – Intensity with Panache”

Avatar – A Series of Bizarre Occurrences..
Avatar for me was an extravaganza of superlative visual graphics and mind boggling execution of 3D technology. And with that, I am done commenting about all the good things about this multi million blockbuster. Let me make myself very clear that fantasy has never excited me, probably I am too much in to the fraternityContinue reading “Avatar – A Series of Bizarre Occurrences..”
Apple’s iPad – How revolutionary could it be..??
The first looks of the iPad are indeed a revelation and going by the vehement statement made by Steve Jobs, it could be the magical multimedia device we all have never seen. But for now, all of our ideas, feedback and the critic’s review could just be a speculation. If you ask me, I amContinue reading “Apple’s iPad – How revolutionary could it be..??”
CPI(M) will never be the same again..
The demise of Jyoti Basu marked the end of an era. An era that witnessed some of the finest leaders this country has ever seen, and they were an embellishment to the fraternity of our political history. For many, Mr Basu might already be a part of folkfore, but for me, he has always comeContinue reading “CPI(M) will never be the same again..”
Pitch in for ‘Pitches’..
The ‘Kotla‘ debacle has raised quite a few eyebrows on the infrastructure and the management of the regional centers, across India. On this occasion, the DDCA was found guilty and by all means, this does not augur well for the country’s reputation, who is all set to host the ‘World Cup’ in 2011. The BCCIContinue reading “Pitch in for ‘Pitches’..”
3 Idiots – VVC & Raju churn out another classic from their stable..
Once in 3-4 years, comes a movie which touches our heart, tinkers the strings of emotions within us and breezes through our minds as sheer poetry. ‘3 Idiots’ is one such flick. Vidhu and Raju come back together after the ‘Munnabhai’ series and their films have just one thing in common. They create magic onContinue reading “3 Idiots – VVC & Raju churn out another classic from their stable..”
As 2010 arrives..
“The glorious past can never be a yardstick for the unpredictable and yet, juvenile future. Let us pray and wish for a year, filled with plethora of challenges to encounter, and plenty of opportunities to excel.” I wish all my readers, a progressive and hugely successful new year!
A Visit To ‘God’s Own Country’..
I have always heard (obviously nice things..) a lot about the state of Kerala and its picturesque locations, and post my vacation there (which ended a bit too soon!!), I would agree with most of the claims made. The place is an absolute must for folks who admire diversity. We all had a whale ofContinue reading “A Visit To ‘God’s Own Country’..”
The Serenity of Hogenakkal Falls is Enchanting!!
This is my 3rd visit to Hogenakkal Falls and I must admit, that every time I make it to this place, it never ceases to take the charm away from it’s picturesque locales and the incredible scenic beauty of the waterfalls. This time, I made it with my friends from the ‘City Of Joy’ andContinue reading “The Serenity of Hogenakkal Falls is Enchanting!!”
Diwali Dhamaka!!

Jai Ho ARR..
Awesome. Reverberating. Raunchy. That precisely describes Rahman’s exploits in the ‘Jai Ho’ Concert held yesterday, at the Marg Swarnabhoomi, near Mahabalipuram in Chennai on 11th October, 2009. As the ‘Mozart Of Madras’ churned out some of his sparkling chart busters, the crowd went berserk. It was typical ARR at his best and his commitment ofContinue reading “Jai Ho ARR..”
Why Blogging..??
I admit, this might come across as an absurd question, but at the end of the day, I strictly believe that a blog is never complete without actually having an article about blogging..!! (Rather why not blogging..) So here I go.. Where do I begin? I mean why do people all over the planet decideContinue reading “Why Blogging..??”
