Madhavi Kutty

Her "My Story" was a very refreshing read. Its very nice to be a imaginary person - dream and live, and you dont clearly know what is dream and what is reality... Started reading her next book - collection of short stories.... Also bought "Alchemist"..... So back to books and movies.....!

>>>>>> Saturday Movies <<<<<<<<

Was virtually @ Forum this saturday. Saw two movies - "Newyork" for morning show, and "Transformers" for first show.

"Newyork" is a brave attempt. Casting is superb. First half was very interesting - post 9/11 life of indian muslims in america. But second-half execution was weak, and it resembled a average hindi movie.

"Transformers" - animation is superb, but i wish the film was 40 minutes shorter. Megatron dying and living, Optimus dying and then living... why show all the same stuff again and again... Do some good graphics and animations.. and entertain for 1.5 hours. Never make these movies this longer.

Was looking for "Harry Potter" tickets for sunday. But didnt get. Is Bangalore under recession ? No way - Forums and Malls and Multiplexes are full... and eating outlets you have to wait in queue to find a place. Recession was never here............

"Ente Kadha"

Started reading Madhavi Kutty's "Ente Kadha" - her "fictional" autobiography. I am immersed in that book. She gave me the freedom to dream again........

God ( whether he belongs to whichever caste or religion ) bless her......

Kidney, Neck and Nose

My nose is completely gone. Cant smell for the last 5-6 years. In a way its good. Neck now it has started continous pain, last 12 years in software and bad living habits. And kidney... i can feel kidney or intestine is not working well..

i am not compaining.. i am just thining of my priorities. should i attack kidney first, or nose or neck ? i can live with one kidney, as far as i breathe i am okay with nose also. i somehow wants to get back my old good neck.

my neck started getting damaged with the frequent sleeping in grove apartments sofa.. and that habit continued even after leaving grove.....

Lets see....... I want to survive the health threats posed by middle aged indian guy.

Orkut, Facebook and now Twitter

I moved out of HI5 when it started corrupting me, and now moving out of orkut when i started corrupting it. Went to facebook, and started using it. Nobody reads my blogs, facebook is a way to force people listen to what i say. I hope to keep facebook for known friends only.

Moved to twitter now just out of curiosity. A delhi nair Shashi Tharoor is active in it. So why not a real changanacherry nair ?

Veruthe Oru Bharya, Innathe Chintha vishayam, Vinodhayathra, Bhagya Devatha

Except for vinodhayathra, i saw all the other three films in subject line recently -
"Innathe chintha vishayam" i wanted to see despite bad reviews, as i liked "vinodha yathra". vinodha yathra many didnt like. but i liked it. Like Vinodh ( Dileep) in the movie who learnt a ot of from Meera, i also learnt some tips and truths in life. But "innathe chinthavishayam" is a junk movie. Nothing in that. Some made up story.
"Bhagya Devatha" is a nice film, narrated in a simple manner. beauty of kuttanad is fully picturised. I have seen many people marrying inorder to start a career or business by getting dowry from wife's side. And Jayaram lives in that role very well. "Veruthe Oru Bharya" i immediately bought a VCD, as i had missed that film. And "Bhagya devatha" gave me the necessary momentum to see that film. And first half is narrated very well. Gopika is truly great. But second half disappointed me. It didnt have a good script. You dont have to make the husband a mental person for husband-wife reunion to take place. I saw the second half in 10 mins.

Veruthe Oru Jeevitham.......

.

what the hell with power cuts ?

In trivandrum it was full of power-cuts, then i bought an invertor, suddenly kerala govt stopped power cuts.
Here in bangalore we had power cuts everyday from 6-7am. since i have to leave office @ 7am have to bath in the cold water as the greaser doesnt hav power. So today woke up @ 5:30, and was ready by 6am. Then suddently no power cut. What is this ?
My Motto: Me suffering, everyone should suffer.

Mutant or Machine

Life is boring. Want to become either a mutant like X-Men(Wolverine) or a human-machine like Marcus( Terminator salvation).
