Karthik Writes..

While all the political parties have jumped into the Prohibition bandwagon my suggestion would be to start it in the reel world first and then come to the real world. Yes stop showing the hero and his friends do all the things below A) Dance in the bar with group. B) Brain stroming with friends while drinking. C) Failure in personal life...head straight to the bar. D) To get courage - take the bottle. To have the directors avoid these cliches, films without the above can be provided Tax exemption(what an idea sir ji) like the one for naming Tamil films with Tamil titles. Pls share this until it reaches the concerned. Films do impact this generation.

Just getting interested from trailer was in two minds if I should see this movie... As a prior step also read the review. Decision was made to see the movie. Searched for tickets but could not get the same. With the recent upgrade to a broadband with a better speed searched if there are any online links...yes found one with pretty decent clarity. Now for the movie...no songs with group dancers..no punch dialogues..no acrobatic fights....The hero of the film has no track record to such subjects and infact he has been ridiculed for his acting skills in some of his previous movies in social media...but not this time. If you are the one who are interested in films with court scenes who may like it as I did.(Mamooty's Mouna samandham was the one which interested me a lot several years back). The film entirely revolves around the story line it took and does not deviate much from it. Comedy by Vivek and others is not a separate track but blends well with the main story Heroine Ha

Today, my long felt need of having to get a selfie out was done. You may ask what's so great about a selfie. Well, the need was to take a good selfie (not actually coined as a selfie at that time, but was a just a snap) of me and my parents together. This job had been entrusted to many in the past and the result was not satisfactory. I need to get it done myself and also I need to be there in the picture as well. How to achieve it ? This was an unresolved need from the past, in fact for several years as my parents never wished to go to a photo studio for this purpose. As all problems will have a solution and it is only a matter of time until one finds it. This problem of mine, might have been in someone else mind as well and thus was the selfie stick born. Rather a simple solution of lending an extended hand to cover the frame and shoot the snap. Very simple solution to a simple problem. With the solution found its only the execution that was remaining. So with my goal

Chennai and Auto rides never go well together.The sight of Auto in the city has become a nightmare for many of us. Everyone in the city would definitely have had an argument with auto drivers in the city towards the fare that needs to be agreed for the destination. The fares are always not in relation to the distance, but based on the person. If you are an office goer or old the fare is always higher. No consistency exist in the fares demanded by the Auto drivers and auto meters are a big taboo to the drivers It has been more than a decade since the meters functioned in the city autos and it is always going by the best judgement which the driver makes about the fare. The scene before this scenario was slightly better where the meters were functioning , but were rigged in most of the autos. The heart beat of the passenger would increase every time he boards the auto with a rigged meter which had been clearly manipulated to show exorbitant fare. This "Soodu" meter as it

It was a Sunday morning. Compared to other days got up slightly late and was starting the day. All was well till 11 AM when the television suddenly went blank. One of my favourite programs was getting aired and I hoped the televison will get back to life soon. Minutes moved on, still no sight of power coming back and the wait continued. Slowly minutes ticked and it extended to afternoon. It was now 90 minutes without power and it became slightly irritating.Tried calling the Helpdesk of TNEB and an automated voice greeted me and asked me to choose few options to reach a support person.I explained to him the location (of my place) and he assured me that within 30 minutes the power would be restored. To kill time thought of reading some thing from my small library and the collection I had gathered over the years.I took one of the book which I had  purchased few months back and thought of reading it. As I buried myself into the book it got rather interesting and I forgot to watch

Here I am back with another Review.....This time its on the Steven Spielberg film "The Adventures of Tintin -The Secret of the Unicorn" in 3D. So whats so special here.Well lot many things are special here. Personally Tintin has been one my childhood heroes and it brought in those nostalgic memories in me , where as a school kid I had exchanged books with friends (costly in those days Rs 80 I believe) to read all the stories of this adventure series created by Herge. I had almost read all is what I think. Secondly this probably one of the films which had used motion capture where the real human movements have been imposed on animated objects and the characters really reminded me of those caricatures that I had seen as a kid.The resemblance of all the characters were immaculate and astonishing.  Third no doubt its for the creator - Spielberg and that too in 3D. Having said the reasons which drove me to the theater, the experience in the theater was no less fascinating.
