Undaunted Film

The film name could be fearless, but any one would easily fear looking at the ticket price in theaters for entertaining 3 hours. Till people come forward to offer much money on watching films in theaters, they will increase as much they wish. In mind I was thinking well seriously in disappointment to go to Pirated DVDs that makes theaters these days. Very little people share the open theater, the names running on the screen while entering for evening show Anjathey. The Tamil film which was directed by Mysskin and lead by Naren, Prasanna, Amjal, Vijayalakshmi… though a sensitive film with happenings between two childhood friends on there track. They live inside the police residency, whose fathers where constables and wishing for there sons to join in the police department. One was a quick temper and behaves like a local rowdy; another was quite opposite to him whose aim is to become a sub-inspector. Both writes the exams and sathya passed using trick and krupa failed to pass exam and accuse sathya for cheating, so that he failed. This deeply disturbs the krupa, who later turn to an addict of liquor and sathya becomes sub-inspector finishing the training.

The usual trend happens here, where krupa falls under wrong relationship with those kidnaps young girls for money to any criminal activities and sathya with more senior officers tracing for the kidnapping gang… any one can easily identify what would have been happening then. Some of the physical activates of Naren (sathya) are alike his first film Chithiram Peasuthadi, his distress to save krupa from striking colleague police and in breaking down seeing his friend in unpleasant manner he shows a natural emotion. The new face Amjal lived as the character gives different experience, the anger, sorrow and the point he holds sure head down those cheat to living in a post. In sister character Vijayalakshmi, for amjal, could not forget to recall Chennai -28 as she caller her bro anna, but adorable in the single song and in smiles. The camera played a wonderful thing from the blue skies, sugarcane field and capturing the art behind the song mansukul...

Prasanna, one of my favorite actor tried to threaten with his eyes and smiles behind the hanging hairs, but always seen him in positive characters, his negative role does not do anything than much liking his style in seeing his hands and while walking. Pandiyarajan’s blinking is perfect for giving wrong dealing, but easily beaten up for his comedy villain, does a cool dancing for a song. It just replaces the Valla menukum song, without boring. Director takes a social issue of kidnapping young girls for money and body welfare; it was little shocking the kidnapped children are tied inside the sack and exists mentally upset. In ununiform, police Ponvannan and his team is an example for the kindness on the affected children, felt it would be a lesson for other police men to learn from the film. The technical ideas to trace the kidnapers are next step in Tamil cinema following foreign style. The director must be appreciated to give scenes that without touching the adult mode and have moved people in the emotions at second attempt between a father and a young girl who where kidnapped and spoiled by villain. In director's last film he expressed a love can bring softness inside the hard human and what here it tells is, even a rowdy will turn right to path when something emotionally affect him.

My views on 60,000 crore waive, the mark budget

Was late to share some thoughts about Indian budget because to the lack of internet connection on weekend. It was a marked budget by finance minster to waive 60,000 crore (600 billion) farmers loan in his announcement at parliament. It’s a good news for farmers who struggle to repay for the banks without much productivity, but how much this cancelation of loans help there future?... it may reduce the burden of past and present, but for future they still have the way to go. I feel instead of looking at the loans, the government may get a solution for what sent them to this place, and how to save farmers from committing suicide defeating the drought. Commonly we know the water scarcity is big problem in many parts of India for agriculture and second the funds for producing food grains while taking care on feeding cattle’s, money for laborers, medicines and other machineries. Even though waiving the 60,000 crore, its not going to bring a great changes in there life, still with empty hands and only without burden of borrowed, but also there are people left out who where getting money from private lenders and those repaid the money in a struggle situation and those already left there life who couldn’t pay.

Then, there was no announcement or sign to concentrate on linking rivers in the current budget, if anything happen on this would make solace for whole farmers across country. After waiting for something like this, good that our state of Tamil Nadu has comes to find directions for linking main rivers in state to avoid situations of floods and droughts. This budget is like showing colorful wafers and tasteless inside. Except cancelation of loans, the government was not suppose to save the farm lands turning rise on real estate and looking for flat promoters. I was on the suburbs this weekend, was really disturbed were the most fertility soil marked by stones for sale and the farm wells and lakes are filled with waters, but grounds empty without green. I stop for why not anyone to save the golden grasses from the destruction by humans, and thought about the budget that nothing does to help people on saving the well growing lands to bury under concrete floors.

In peoples mind this 60,000 crore farm loan cancelation puzzled, where the government would increase the Tax and put burden on common people to adjust the loan. Finance minister assured the banks, it could settle the amount of 60,000 crore within three years, but I think would he still be the finance minster for the upcoming 3 years? But alike this, can he assure there won’t be increment on tax debt? And second they announced tax reduction for small cars and 2-3 wheelers, oh I felt who needs this. Already the cities are gone into struggle in lack for controlling the traffic and increasing vehicle population. These days even the suburbs are not left alone from traffic of vehicles… in this time the tax less on it would rise the situation worst without proper roads first. The increased in tax for Computers would sure affect the public, were it was much useful device these days for people and in times people mostly middle class and lower are looking for systems and knowledge. Looking at everything on loan or the differences in tax, is nothing makes big difference on public , where it sunshine here and somewhere the dark night exist, so we can’t expect the sun to shine everywhere, but here the shining was overlooked above.

Stupid-station


Look at the picture, shows a girl child was married to a dog in presence of the relatives where this takes stage in the state of Jharkhand. The superstition that turns stupid situations these days is not uncommon in India. The human-animal marriage lists some believes that links human and animals to avoid bad lucks. The world runs in technology and everything turns simpler and fearless today, still some people bind there minds in easily following customs. People and law are blind to force the rights on when every such incident light up and people only to put interest on the news and not to point out the wrong act. For our beliefs who are we to force the children who are innocent about what is happening to them and when there is ban on child marriage how could we accept human-child marriage that is not legal.

It seems cruel in the above picture where the dog and child are forcefully pulled to participate in the ceremony. Where ever the people get to find a reason for their superstition, not even left the tooth gum to consider a bad luck. read here. This indicates me of the urgency they need to set them free from the bad evil they practice. There was another incident written by one of our friend in his blog that happens in a village of Tamil Nadu’s Neyveli, where the girl children below to age of 10 were beaten by there parents in a wipe on the public, was the heights of there belief to get plenty of rain and make village productive. How many of us are there to think these incidents to sweep seriously and how many where to see this just funny and laugh at the innocent peoples? I don’t find much to take it, where these are only countable and who know as we count the numbers may increase and rumours may spreads the superstition from individual to undividable from people.

Indeed loss

One of the most intelligent and a fantastic Tamil writer is not alive. I have not read any of his books, but have read his some articles in weekly magazine, and wonder at his answers for nearly everything. Sujatha's dialogues present in films to my most favorites, just makes me expect more films within his dialogues. Really the time world is looking for his upcoming grand projects suddenly fallen down is a sudden shock and a complete loss for his millions of fans. Let he rest in peace and respect.
