Dhaam Doom



A beautiful display of firecracker with sound… dhaam dhoom! Another quality movie in my view.

The plot is how come an Indian doctor caught into trouble going to attending conference in Russia and fought to return from a country of unaware language to hand locks his sweet-cute-heart in India. In-between the memories past encounter his girl and explore desires. It’s a visual treat from late Jeeva and a step further to actor Jayam Ravi, he act, fight, and dance well, success out of his homemade movies. Heroine Kangana Ranaut stole heart in her beauty along with the countryside scenery. It’s opened into grand and put on fast track and soon the Russian model smile understands where the movie moves. We can’t expect anything than better, Jeeva tries giving a Hollywood flick in touch of Indian moviemaking. As much the story centre to Russian incident, there is nothing strong expectation in love struggle and village attention. Being a village girl, casually bind with hero at first sight is striking somewhere and the usual naughty girl playing in street with children (what can expect then).

Lakshmi Roy just used to run with him, and whatever the idea is made by hero. Jayram turn to be negative, but the secret doest interest the mood into thriller and it tires simply searching the tail to head. There is something I don’t know why the Indian flag left behind when Ravi fell under bullets and what I expect the usual logic and helicopter chasing is missing. Many scenes where just moved from English movies captured in and around St.Petersburg, but the countryside of pollachi is refreshing. Some character are nothing to do in add frames, Ravi’s friend seems director to have a fortune touch of his preview film. Jeeva was not to think before Unnalea Unnalea and I really get confused at his debut to think his route is not for us, and I like him as cinematographer after Run. The background scoring has a good effort, a kind of action and a picture to watching in theater to enjoy visually.
Songs are top of year already and the picturesque are such lovely! Anbe En Anbe was stunning in the background of beautiful coorg and the girl. I wonder how come my favorite song Azhiyela mukkulikum azhea, as well its lines it kept poetic touch bind within Innova car. Thikku thikku is a pub song; few fast choreography and Pudupudu… have some dhaam dhoom beats striking in digital sound, getting away the words. It’s a lose of director who see and reflect the beauty through his camera technically as well differently.

Kunnakudi pass away

Music is to enjoy anytime as it gives enthusiastic, and no need a matter of knowing Carnatic music, but something to miss the demand increases. Anyone can rub the string with bow to outcomes a sound or tone, but tuning them to rhythm is a beautiful art everyone can’t bring pleasure. The person whom I truly admire for contributing himself to music and up bringing the instrument an interesting model for any generation is none than our great renowned Violinist Kunnakudi Vaidyanathan! On most eventful days I happen to listen his early morning performance in television playing some old and famous Tamil songs through his violin and to wonder how he arrange the verses according to origin just rubbing the strings and moving fingers.

Today I was watching his late videos and interview on television and really felt how lose the death of him to his fans. He told about mother lap, describing his fondling to his native place which brought him renowned name Kunnakudi Vaiyanathan and he plays violin beautifully adorning the way songs composed by musicians of then and now to seeing his expressions to feel the true involvement within itself. I always love someone giving their expressive the way song penned, put a feel for the uttering words, but he don’t use the words in replace with string sounds. No one can replace his position if not for music, but the person himself and kind being. If not him, his creativity of sounds will exist everywhere.

Here's more about the Legend, Kannukudi Vaiyanathan

Procession to immersion






Casual and usual visit to beach on Sunday turn to be a distinct experience, witnessing the Ganesh procession and the idols immersion into sea. Let know there was this process going to happen allover Chennai on Sunday, even though I forget and only to remember at arrival our nearer beach in Kotivakkam is one such place selected for immerse idols. From ECR towards the seashore of university road is bang with people singing and dancing to the band, cheering up there procession in bull cart, tempos and small elephants (the 4 wheel auto, we call it) gearing slowly. Mostly young people and children come across partaking in the process, tying the saffron color curtain on there forehead and caring flags on vehicles shouting in praising ganesha and creating a sense of public festival surround the place.

It was like 5.30pm being there, to see those are the final processions heading towards shore as time and light droop. It’s seen overcrowd evening never before as this beach won’t get more peoples attention, the main reason I visit this beach often. Tempos, Lorries are parked besides roads, cranes to carry away the idols to water, the loudspeaker announcing the places of idols to be immersing and full protection by police standing nearby everywhere. Gladly got space to park witnessing the ongoing part of immersion, sadly the many clay idols are throws outside the vehicle along roadside instead of immersing and large ones are carried inside the sea in catamarans. I wonder what does these immerse take place the idols are not made of clay and build with woods and cardboards, painted with whatever color mix with chemical. The idols are forced to dissolve, but they refuse to stay and receive by shore pushed by waves making the shore unclean.

People are sprinkle with pink color powers on their faces, and its Sunday with more children sighted playing with mud, run and catch, football… near to me there was is kid, so cute in shaved head and in small hands playing in mud alone with there family, she smiling beautifully. First time I was to see something like this, after longtime when we used to get our idol to beach; mostly there would be festival time in Besant Nagar church when we get to beach. The sand was unclean, and the remaining things are thrown away by people came to immerse idol. The cranes stand long in length which can’t make it further to drop idols into water and huge crowd around mainly to witness the lift and drop. Thanks mom for getting near to shore as my request having me pictures, the 1st pic was take at procession.

விடி காலை / Dawn morning

மேகம் மூடி சூரியன் மறைந்தது
சாரல் வீசி காலை விடிந்தது
குருவிகள் சத்தமிட்டு சிறகுவிரித்தது
இடி ஒன்று விழுந்ததினால் கலைந்துசென்றது

நேரம் கடந்து காலை விழித்தது
கனவு கலைந்து இயல்பு வந்தது
தேனீர்பருக சோம்பல் பறந்தது
சோகம் சோர்வு தனிமை இரவு தந்தது
அதை விலக்கி பார்க்க சந்தோஷம் இருந்தது

அழகு கலை இயற்கை படைத்தது
அதை சோதித்து சிலஇதயம் சேதப்படுத்துது
காற்று மாசுபட்டு சுவாசக்கோளாறாகுது
இயற்கையே உன்னை மீட்டெடுப்பது எப்போது?

இனிதே தெடங்கட்டும் வாரவிடுமுறை காலம்...

Translation in english follows:

Cloud covers sun hides
drizzle blows morning dawned
sparrows sonant to stretch wing
in fallen of a thunder scatter goes

Time passed morning waked
dream scatter nature comes
to drink tea idleness flied
sadness sorrow loneliness night gave
to depart see happiness live

Beauty art nature’s creativity
in trial some heart destroy it
air polluted breathe disordered
nature, when to regain you?

Let sweetly began weekend period...

Good way to immerse


My last year's trial on idol

The Ganesh Chaturthi was celebrated allover pleasantly; some immerse the idols of ganesh on the day worshiped and some later days. But what the good way to terminate the festive is to send the thing where it belongs. Last year I done as experiment to see the clay idol dissolved into tub of water, within 2-3 days it became fluid and crème layer to use in flower pots. This time we have no Chaturthi to see the same progress, some really wonder and laugh at my thought within family and relatives then to see appreciate is a good way. Just dipping the idol in river and sea, why this long process may think, but what significant is to save environment and fishes. A few drop of salt wont taste difference in a tumbler of pure water, when the drop increase it turns salty, so as one and more idols unclean the sea, lake or any shores of water.

It was another day sitting before television, in more patients to watch films and programs in countless advertisements. I come across this cute animation film Balganesh in Star Vijay, the creativity of the ganesh character was lovably, esp. what he does getting the elephant trunk and he sounds sweet in vocal. I told before, because of grandma missing we have no celebration at home, but there were special dishes prepared by mom for us to spend the day watching TV and having them. So if anyone like the idea go with your idol and see the change we can bring.
