My Friends Arjuna and Aatma met me

Today morning Arjuna calls me and said he and Aatma will come and meet me. At 12.00am they came, when he call me 5 days back, he gave me a test, when they too come to meet me, I should identify him who is aatma and arjuna. But I failed in his test, one time when I put my photo on the blog he told, I will be very dark than you, with that, I imagine him different. The aatma was light darker, so I thought he should be Arjuna.

Arjuna was look like a foreigner. It was a very happy meet; they too are very friendly and very enjoyable persons. It was a very fun. They too look smart; it was very nice chat with them. He brought me chocolate, I think he had thought me as a small kid. :) We took photos, and we exchange our words, Arjuna told about his love, he had loved atleast 13 girls!! including Asin Now he had changed his love, because all of them have a love with Asin, including me. Arjuna is very nice guy, i ask him did u saw all places in U.K., he told he will go to collage and come to home,(vedu vitta collage and collage vitta vedu) he had not much places.

My parents compel them to have lunch, but they have eaten some prasadham in Baba temple, that one is worry for me. Arjuna was a food lover. Aatma was a soft person, but Arjuna is opposite to him, (just a joke, don’t take it series Arjuna) Arjuna is a devote of Sri Satya Sai Baba. Aatma and Arjuna teasing each other and enjoying their life. Aatma is leaving to Vellore today evening to see his parents. Arjuna is a big fan of Captain Vijayakanth, when he see a vijayakanth film in TV he was tried to Wisely, he was telling about his thalaivar praise.

There were no words to tell about my happy, when I saw them. Thanks a lot to you Friends. I am very happy to see so many friends come and encourage me.

Arjuna and Aatma meet many friends and have a good chat with them. :)

Taj Mahal Released



More than Rs 100 crores has gone into Akbar Khan's Taj Mahal-An Eternal Love Story is at last releasing Today worldwide along with its dubbed version in Tamil. Sarya Jehan (granddaughter of the melody queen Noorjehan), a half French and a half Pakistani actress, plays the role of Mumtaz, the symbol of eternal love. Zulfi Syed and Kabir Bedi play the young and old Shah Jahan, one of the greatest lovers in history.

It took four years to complete this epic. Taj Mahal has haunting music by veteran Naushad. Choreography by Saroj Khan and costumes by Anna Singh are the other highlights of the film, which was shot in the Mehrangarh fort in Jodhpur, the Dal Lake in Kashmir and Mumbai studios. Taj Mahal is an eternal favorite with the audience. The first film on the subject, which came in the 1950s, was a hit. Akbar Khan is proud that he has been able to recreate the Mughal era in all its splendour.
