Culture of Acid attack


Acid was a chemical, which used for domestic and industrials purpose. Acid is dangerous liquid; we have to handle it safely, or it will affect our tissue, damaging respiratory organs, eyes, skin and intestines. We have been reading in newspapers, watching in TV (mostly in the films), where the acid are used illegally for attacking humans, some even fill the acid in the empty egg cover and pore on the face. According to Wikipedia, Acid attacks are primarily occur in the parts of South Asian countries, especially in Bangladesh.

Acid throwing remains a major problem in Bangladesh. Mostly these attacks are pointing women’s. For example If a girl refused the man’s proposal or avoid the sexual relationship with him, she will be punished my acid. The acid eats the skin down to the bones, and the woman's chances of living a normal life after such an attack are virtually nil. The acids which use for these attacks are sulfuric or hydrochloric acid. These women’s never leave their homes without wearing a burka (a black dress cover the whole body) and a piece of cloth on their head covering everything but their eyes. Even the school going children’s were affected in this attacks.

In 2002 the death penalty was introduced by Bangladesh government for throwing acid after the number of victims rose to nearly 500 a year. There is also legislation to force businesses that use acid to store it safely. Even though 267 people were still attacked last year. Very cruel issue was a month old kid Durjay was made to drink acid years back, last week he had heat failure but was revived, after a series surgery now he was breathing through a hole in his throat. When he cries the air wheezes in and out. No one has been brought to justice till now. There are much cases like this in Bangladesh, but many cases have not took to court, because of no money to get a Lawyer to get justice. There is even a special hospital and rehabilitation center for victims in the capital, run by a charity called the Acid Survivors' Foundation. The first known acid attack in Bangladesh took place in 1967, and the number of attacks has been rising constantly since the mid-1990s. The solace news is at least the NGO’s are fighting for these poor soul, God bless u people.

23rd King Pulicasi (Tamil Movie)


Finally went to the palace (I mean Drive-in theater) to see our Emsai Arasan 23rd Pulicasi. The climate was very nice last evening, with cloudiness, and cool breeze form the sea.

Emsai Arasan 23rd Pulicasi was a movie based on the history, the period of the British’s in India. The story: twin princes born to Veera Chozhapura Palayam King, as 23rd child (22 child have born and died), but the queen’s brother, evil mind Rajguru, hold the elder child (who was innocent) with him and separate the young child (who was intelligent) and gave it to kingdom’s doctor to leave into the Vaigai River. Rajguru craves to have the control of the kingdom in his hand, so he grows the elder son as foolish king and keep in his control. The young children was got in the hands of doctor’s wife, and like to take him as their son and give him good education and grow him as a brave and valiant warrior. The elder son was named as 23rd pulikesi, and younger son was Ukkrabuddhan.

By the advice of his Uncle Rajguru, Pulikesi join hands with British and sign many things like digging gold, selling Liquor, and paying tax for them, by these activities the people in the country disliked the heartless king and a revolution force was organized by the young Ukkrabuddan to destroy the rule of Pulikesi, and the king’s relation with British. In this situation, the younger Ukkrabuddan, saw the king, and wonder he was like him and comes to know of the past and realize that Pulikesi was his brother. In between the Commander-in-chief try to kill the king for his cruel rule and the king was caught by revolution force and Ukkrabuddan impersonation and went to kingdom as Pulikesi and changed the rules and broke the hands with British. And the Elder Pulikesi was sent to prison, to realize how was his punishment to the people. Did the twins meet? What happed to the Rajguru is he dies or realizes his fault? What happen to the kingdom? Is the remain story.

Vadivelu as Pulikesi and Ukkrabuddan (twins), an appreciating acts. The vadivelu not even need to talk any dialogue, we laugh when see him on the screen. His funny questions and punishments make us laugh, where ever the scene when the minister with pulikesi, is very comedy, esp. the scenes when Pulikesi get angry on the security for not tell the dialogue rajathi raja, raja marthanda… (Me too forget…. Pls don’t give me any punishment pulikesi) properly, so the minister will tell I will kill him now, where is my sword, sorry king, I have forget to bring the knife. The minister’s face expression make us laugh here.

When vadivelu talk the Kattabomman diagouge to the British captain, it was fully comedy, and the British captain’s Tamil words are very very funny. If Shivaj was lived now, sure Vadivelu will be wised by him. What a acting, riding the horse, showing White flag on the war time to their enemy country, going to the bear hunt, and got shame by the bear. There are two heroines who come only for the song. Nasser as Rajguru, his face expression was very new, and too his hairstyle. Songs take us to the 60’s 70’s, every song are different, the first one Aada va pada va (come to dance, come to sing) was super, vadivelu was lucky to play with the girls in the harem. The female voice in this song was very sweet, esp. the voice for this lyrics alagu rasi nerunge enthan pakkam va da, avasarama ennku oru mutham thaa da….. The background music was wonder, Music director Sabesh-Murali; part was very a big support for this film. The climax statement by the king Pulickesi to the people remembers our politician’s election’s promise. The film was directed by Simbu Devan, we have to appreciate his idea of taking a film based on the history, the clean Tamil dialogue was a plus point for this film. The art director’s settings show the real fort before us. My favorite Director Shanker has produced this film, thanks for taking a whole comedy film. I enjoyed well, by eating Ice-crème, popcorn, even finished the dinner in the theater.

Thanks for read this long post:)

Latest SMS's

After getting a cell I got a new work that is reading the sms and pass it to others. Mostly I get sms from Prasanna and my dad’s colleague Elango. I have a cousin in Chengalpat( a small city near chennai), he dint have TV in his house, so every day morning I will send him the headlines today, through SMS. he is waiting for Chief Minister Karunanidhi to give free tv, as he announced in his election proclamation. Here are some funny sms, I got recently.

SMS’s

Shivaji Punch dialogue: Nee adichaa naan aluven, but Naan adichaa nee almaata, unnai suthi naalu peru aluvaanga (Translated in English: if u beat I will cry, but if I beat u, u will not cry, four people will cry surround you.)

My cousin Punch dialogue: Nee kadichaa naan kattu poaduven, but Naai kadichaa nee nalu uosi thopula suthi poadanum (Translated in English: You bite me, I will put bandage, but, Dog bite you, you have to put four injections surround you navel)

???

If money doesn’t grow on trees, then why do bank have branches?
Why does a round pizza come in a square box?
Why doesn’t glue stick to its bottle?
Why do you still call it building when it’s already built?
If it’s true that we are here to help others, what are others here for?
If you aren’t supposed to drink and drive, why do bars have parking lots?
We are a funny bunch of people living in a seriously funny world! Think about it! Have a thoughtful day

Nice example

A sculptor made a statue of God in a single rock. The withered parts of the rock were used to make footsteps of the temple. The footstep asked the statue, brother we are from the same rock but u r worshipped and I am stamped, why? Statue said I with stood thousands of hit, by the sculptor. But you withered by a single hit. That why I am worshipped & you are not.
So never feel for overcoming hardship, it will surely take us soon to our success.

this is from forward mail
