What It Feels like Being at Home?!


It's 11:30AM in the morning and in another 30mins time half of the day will be done and dusted! But I still find myself on not so comfortable bed and wanting to sleep for some more time. I feel a bit lazy and do not want to go outside. It's Scorching summer. So I prefer to stay home today as well.


At the other end mom was watching her favorite serials on TV and making arrangements for lunch. Yes. She is doing her job perfect!! I slowly move close to my desktop and play my favorite tracks on itunes and raise the volume to max. I feel that's the best way to start a day! As soon as mum hears to the songs being played on my desktop she realizes that I had decided to wake-up and she prepares herself to come in and starts prodding me to do the necessary daily needs and have a lite breakfast at least now. I feel so sorry for her sometimes. She takes whole lot of responsibility.

Once I'm done with all that I check with the fans and lights at home. Yes. I check with all that these days. Avadi is one heck area to live in. There is a huge scarcity of power supply particularly in this area and you can't really use anything other than TV. I seriously hate living in the area I currently live in. When everything goes well I make sometime to blog.

Aunty who lives next door comes in and asks "What ya Don't have college uh?!"

No Aunty. I'm almost done with my Graduation. I reply plainly.

Oh!! Okie. My brother's daughter studied in the same college and she got a job in some software company. You didn't get any?! She starts to enquire. 

Ahh! No. I'm not as smart as your brother's daughter. She must be a bookworm all these 4 years and she deserve to work for some company. I hit back. 

You need to study well ma. Don't sit simply. Help mum at least. She finishes. 

Yea sure Aunty. Mum is inside go get those chilli flakes. That's what you need na?! I tried to say but didn't.

I don't understand why these aunties hit out straight when they don't even know what they are talking about. They feel like they are the best analyzers in the mankind and they don't bother to say what they feel. 

I try hard to spend sometime reading newspaper but I don't find anything substantial these days. And once mum is ready with the lunch she starts screaming. 

Post lunch. It's time for slumber. A much needed 2 hour sleep. I can call it day-dreaming. You don't have to invest while dreaming. It's absolutely FREE! 

A call disrupts me while I'm dreaming online. It's a call from some close ones from mum side. They always call me to speak to mum. I don't know why. Hahaha Just because I use the common phone. 

Note: Don't dare to take the call if you have no such guts to answer what they had in stock for you. Remember close quarter relations are the biggest threat to people who were about to finish their Graduation and looking for a Job. They will surely sue you with whole set of questions which you can never ever answer in your lifetime. 

Hello?! I take the call and soon realizes that it's from someone whom I personally knew for so long time. 

Hi, Wassup?! No companies yet?! Inquires Aunty on phone. 

Here we Go!! These days people never give a damn of how good they are. They always wanted to know what others are up to. So without wasting much time they come to the point straight asking what's up with the companies. 

Quite a few companies paid a visit but I didn't get into any. I replied. 

Oh!! Okay. You must work hard. See your dad and mum wanted you to be in a good position. She starts the Ramayana Again. 

Ahh! Aunty I know all that. If I happened to crack any interview I will inform you in the first place. I replied with a harsh tone. 

And with that aunty will shift the topic and questions the whereabouts of mum as I handover the phone quick. 

Dad comes in the evening and starts inquiring what I did all through the day. He surely knows I did nothing other than day-dreaming and having an almost close encounter with the next door Aunt and close quarter aunt over my future plans. But he still wanted to know what I'm up to. 

I did nothing dad. Contemplating over my true place in life. I respond. 

Do something in life. Think of it. Dad ends with simple words this time. 

If you have read the above content you would surely find me as an irresponsible guy who is not so serious about life and wanted to spend half his lifetime staying at home. Isn't it?! Okay. You are right. Here is my version. Go! Read that quick. 

Listen it's so tough job to sit at home when yo have nothing to do. Mums and Aunties can turn violent anytime so just be AWARE. Hang out and explore the opportunities of living. 

As a 21 year young bloke I keep loitering between places. I love to travel. I keep reading stuff. I love writing. I introspect a lot. I Look at things different. I hardly wanted to stay at home. Being involved in the hectic schedule for the last 4 years I kept learning many things in life and witnessed some great moments and bad moments on an equal share. More than that I learned to live. I may not be so good at what people call it as academics in which they believe it gives you a happy life. I always wanted to do some BIG things in life and still in a process of getting close to that. I never thought I would find love with the books. I never thought I would write. But all that happened just because some people backed me and they find my writings appealing. 



Give the space first. Results will follow.

It's First Love

Prologue:

I just love the way you do. It's better we elope and get married! Things are falling badly for the last 6 months and Varun can't possibly wait for Nisha's parents approval for their marriage. It's already getting late now. 

Varun looks manly for his 5'9 inches tall and works for some leading software company in Bangalore. While Nisha is plump, plain-looking but attractive works for an UK based MNC in Chennai. They are friends for the past 5 years and now into a messy relationship.




Nisha was left puzzled when Varun had left her behind and married a girl under bizarre circumstances. Only to realize that he already committed the biggest mistake of his life. 

His love is still for Nisha. And Nisha is still in love with Varun no matter how angry she was at him. She still loves him deeply and so madly. 

1 year down the line Varun and Nisha find themselves under the same roof contemplating what-to-do-next?! They want to make a move on. They wish to get married and live life to the fullest. 

Are they ready to face the biggest challenge of their life?! Can Nisha come clean from the mess of being involved in an extramarital relationship?! Can Varun be supportive all the time?! Will they finally get married and live life with all colors flying?!

Note: "It's first love" is a new series coming up in my blog where I publish on chapter basis just like "Love" series where I had published 7 chapters when it ended up on an emotional note. Love series did reasonably well and still stands on top. I hope "It's first love" also does the same.

Kollywood Wake Up!


Last evening I happened to watch one Tamil movie at a local theater in Chennai. The following 2 and half hours went awful and I regret for going with this one. Half way down the show I updated my status on Facebook showing my sheer disappointment with this movie and once I'm done with that some started hitting back. And so I decided to take on Tamil movies this way.

The movie was titled as "Kedi Billa Killadi Ranga" initially I thought the sounding was good and so the movie must be doing really good. When I checked with the theater I can see people pouring in as if the movie got released the same day. I'm impressed with the inflow and I'm excited to watch a Tamil movie in Cinemas after a long gap. Except that it wasn't.


Local theaters have their own good's and bad's. Budding lovers and oldies who can't afford for multiplex come here to watch the movie at a reasonable pay. Maintenance was at its worse with these theaters. One can split anywhere he wanted to. Air conditioner goes off in just 10mins after the show starts! 

Coming up with this movie "KBKR" I seriously wonder how these actors gave a nod to this story line and what made the producer go with this one. Okay let me tell you what made me so very furious about this particular film. 

3 guys played 3 lead roles in this movie where they struggle to get settled in life. Pressure from their families builds up on them and society does play its role at times. But, these 3 guys are happy enough to be Jobless and don't give a damn about their life. First half of the movie goes this way when 2 of the leads get stuck with girl of their life and will start trying to impress their girl with their senseless humor. 

The second half starts with the same pace. They still don't realize the importance of life. All they have in mind was to get married to the girl who has enough to feed this ass all his life. And they keep looking for that. And some political non-sense happens in the meantime when these two leads wanted to be the counselors of their respective areas and that will be an utter failure as expected!. I was looking for a change in these two guys so that the movie ends up quick. The moment came after horrible 20mins. One guy realizes when his father says a few words on his current position and passes away the same day. This guy replaces his fathers job and treats his father as his God. 

Done with one guy. The other guy was a little hard. He beats up his father with no second thought. And I surprisingly find audience applauding the scene. I still don't understand what kind of values these people follow. 

And this lead guy starts some bottle collecting and selling business and gets settled in life. Thank god! His father didn't passed way when he received death beatings from his son. After all they both get married to their girl of life and earn some respect in their homes and society. Finally the director comes to say that friend in a need is a friend in deed. Must be trying to say that people need to realize. I say the director needs to realize that he failed miserably in doing that.

Positives: Nothing much to find positives from this one. Some dialogs about friendship. Timing was good. 

Negatives: Poor direction, Poor songs, Poor production values, poor story line.

Note: Basically Tamil movies are hard to understand. They always go with the story. No matter how the hero and heroine looks. I wonder why they don't make-up their lead roles to make a difference. If you are new to Tamil Nadu you can find the difference. Hero's in the posters look too lean or else too bulk of their size with a dark colored skin, thick mustache, beard left unshaved, some local banyian and dark blue colored lungi with white stripes on it. Man they seriously look horrible in their outfits.

I have huge respect to the directors in Tamil Film Industry. I'm not against them. With the likes of Rajni Kanth, Kamal Hasan, AR Rehaman and a lot more. They have created an impact already. All I wanted to say is grow up with your ideas. Youth watching! Make movies for a better cause. Entertainment is necessary but not in this way. You wanted people to do nothing unless and until someone passes away and you realize after that?! Holy shit man. Try change your methodologies. Wake up!

Movie Rating: 1/5
