Its all about people

Copy pasting this post from my internal blog

“Varieties add flavours to our life”
We feel bored when we try the same menu everyday…We feel disgusted when we do the same monotonous work..But one amazing thing about life is we meet or see people of different kind,qualities every minute or everyday.During the progress or passage of time i have seen different kinds of people and this post is all about it.
All Rounder:
A person who is so down to earth,amiable,affable,amigo,austere etc falls under this category.They are good listeners and good speakers.They hear the opinion of others.They treat everyone in equal position,create opportunities,ready to be transparant.They “Call a spade a spade”.Above all they are good at handling conflicts and glow in the foggy snow.All rounder is synonymous with benevolent leader.
Do what i say:
People of this type have bossy attitude.They are more concerned about their product rather than people.They are good speakers but never lend their ears to listen.They never ask others for opinion and others feel scared to voice their opinion.They tend to me autocratic.
I know everything:
People of this type are bit self-conceited.they hold this attitude “I know everything and whatever i do is correct”.They never share knowledge with others fearing others would climb the ladders so fast.On the whole a hard nut to crack.
Money matters:
People of this type are more concerned about wealth rather than wisdom.They mingle with people of the same category.At the end they prove
“Birds of same feather flock together”.
Mirage:
They are autocratic,they have the capacity to extract work from others.they are good at showcasing themself to higher level and make a niche in whatever work they do.they are mirage and are often appreciated for others work.
I am in-Extrovert:
These people are always enthusiastic and ready to take responsibilities.They grab each and every opportunity.they turn gloomy side of everything to shiny shades.They are good team players and are always amongst people.the way they communicate and express their intelligence makes them uniques.
Wise and Introvert:
These people are wise,smart and intelligent.They tend to be shy and introvert.they never want to come out from their shell.Most of their talents remain un-noticed.But they are perfect when it comes to work.
Concerned about others:
What x thinks if i wear this.What does she think if i do this.people of this category are more concerned about others reaction.They never want to hurt others and are worried about others reaction.
I can write about this topic on and on,but let me stop with this.this is my analysis about people.Do drop your opinion too.Ofcourse being an “Allrounder” would be everyone’s choice.

My ramblings

Its been eons since i wrote in this space.Let me break my hibernation with my ramblings...
1.Been to thanjore to see my cousin's new born kid...Journey from trichy to thanjore is always soothing..I always stare at NIT and give a look "i have never seen such institutes before in my life".The lush green serene atmosphere made the trip still more worthy..This time also didnot miss to visit Bhrihadeshvara temple..had nice dharshan...I am simply awestruck by the temple's architecture.I wanted to see the replica Gangai konda chozhapuram..hope will get a chance soon.

2.After 6 months of slogging,i am allocated to a new project.I miss my old team and i guess no one is there to pester them for tea breaks..the only one(its me) who pestered a lot is out from the team.

3.When you do something and if it is not recognized or noticed it really hurts...Been in such situations or faced it a lot...The only hope i say to myself is "Tomorrow dawns with bright rays".

4.I hear kadhri's saxophone umpteen times and not even for a single time felt bored.Been hearing Bhramamokate and yenthano mahanu bhavu numerous times but still i long to hear it again.I guess it is the power of music.

5.I dont feel like reading Jeffrey Archer's book..Not a penny and kane and Abel are resting in my shelf...Started to read "To kill a mocking bird"....Planning to get rohinton mistry's fine balance..Was reading pelican brief,but offered the book to my friend...Lots of books remain untouched.Hope to complete To kill a mocking bird…My friend is a great fan of J.K.Rowling….5 years back I grabbed HP –part 1 from her.Till today it remains untouched.I tried hard and push myself to read it but in vain….

6. My brother seems to be busy with his studies...I really miss him..Miss the silly fights....he hardly speaks with me..Whenever he calls i am entangled with something and i sulk at him...
you got it right he is in his 12th...

7.i wanted to see pursuit of happiness and Angles and demons….Dont know when….My list of books and movies gets increasing …..

8.Sometimes I think of my lost dreams….I become gloomy for not taking the track which I desperately needed……….Again I leave it to time..Hope it heals everything…..

9.During the progress of time I see different kinds of people,people who are really chweet angelic,people who are always bullying….People who wanted to be an introvert..People with extroversion…Huh I can write on and on about people….Let me stop with this…..
I vow to write often henceforth…Signing off….

My close pal........


My close pal,my dearest pal and a person to whom i speak nonchalantly ,to whom i share even the crappiest thing ,infact who hears all my nonsense is none other than my dear amma....


Amma the protector:


Mischievous attitude and naughtiness are quite casual for kiddos ,i am not an exceptional....Whenever i did naughty acts she protected me from others and defended to save me...I understood her love towards me…


Amma the guru:


She is my first and foremost guru...When my school teacher siad "Your child is bit sluggish to learn the lessons",my mother took the herculean task of teaching me...Amma still i ROFTL at one thing,the days you used to weep,when i failed to recognize the difference between many of the tamilzh alphabets....


Amma the commentator:


I bet no one can be so open to me other than my amma....If she finds something good at me,she openly appreciates me...Whenever she finds something is worse from my side,she throws directly at my face....I love the openess which my amma holds


Amma the motivator:


Whenever i feel sick,she use to tell me to get out from the bed and continue my normal activites...Many times i have sulked at my mother for asking me to do my activities when i was ill...But later she taught me that the greatest medicine for illness is get out of it and continue the normal work",,Also i bet no one can compete with her when it comes to affection...She use to call me 100 times and enquire my health whenever i am entangled with illness...amma and appa are the two people to whom i share my happiness and gloomy moments...


Amma the best of everything:


Amma is the best in whatever task she does....She is the best according to me..Be it cuisine,home management or whatever it may be she always stands unique....She is the one who gives me the correct independency level to cherish my dreams...She is the one who believes that i can achieve things even when things are really worse...


Words fail to come when i try to write her qualities,she is the close pal ever in my life to whom i can share everything and anything....

Slumdog Millionaire-My review







A film that bagged 4 awards.A hollywood film totally based out of india especially mumbai.All the cast who acted are Indians.A film not only made an indian to win the scholarly GOLDENGLOBE award but also made the entire nation proud...Should i have to give any other clues about this film....I am talking about the film "Slumdog Millionaire" which is based out of the book "Q and A" by Vikas Swaroop...



This film directed by Danny Boyle and co-directed by Loveleen Tandon is one of the film which we hear/read in the form of reviews in newspapers,magazines etc....To add one more feather to its beauty our own prodigy ARR is the music director,who bagged the Golden globe award for his fantabulous music.

The main leads of this movie are Jamal(Dev patel),Saleem(Mathur Mittal) and Lathika(Freida Pinto)...Jamal participates in the show"Who wants to be a millionaire"Jamal a slumdog who answers all the questions and reaches the last question to bag 20 million rupees..Anil kapoor is the host and he is completely astonished to see a slumdog answering the questions...

Jamal is arrested by the police Irfan Khan fearing that he had cheated to win the contest...The flashback starts from here..Jamal explains how each question have relevance with his life..Also he misses his brother Saleem and his lovely sweetheart Lathika..Did he meet his brother and Lathika.Did he win the contest,to find the answers for all these questions you have to watch the movie....

The communal attack,the life of people @slums are beautifully protrayed in the movie And finally the song "JAI HO" is a fantastic number i would say..I hear this song umpteen times but never feel bored ,I guess that is the magic of ARR.


I saw this movie and i liked it..I have seen these kind of movies,i mean about INDIA and about its people in many movies but this movie has its own unique feature..I will not say this is the best movie of ARR because i think some of his other movies attracted me a lot,but definitely a good movie to watch..Lets hope Rahman will bag the prestigious Oscar for his masterpiece .On the whole a nice watch...Give a try and watch the movie...




























I am an exclusion

My amma gets up at 5am in the morning,Rushes to the river to take a holy dip,when I enquire her she says “Yidu Maaga masam ma,It is sacred to take bath in river”….Visit the temple and offer her prayers…By 7.30 am she prepares all the dishes for breakfast and lunch…She also helps my appa and my brother ,so that they reach the office/school in time….Then cleans the entire edifice I mean my home,she starts reciting slogas(Starting from Adhithya hrudhayam till Sahasranamam Trisathi-Slogas)….She never sleeps at noon,she says it is not good to sleep at noon again in the evening she starts her culinary work and goes to bed by 11pm..Hardly she sleeps for 5 hours but she never allows the word lazy in her dictionary..My amma updates me the information from Sathyam fiasco to Yuvi’s century in India-Srilanka series….Also she always keeps the house clean(Sigh!!!!!amma u r a perfectionist)….


Appa gets up by 4am accompany’s amma to river also visits temple….I have never seen my appa with bare forehead I mean at all the times he applies the sacred VIBHUTHI on this forehead….My appa loves gardening and next to me and my brother he grows the plant like his son/daughter…The smile which my appa pose when he see a sprout from the plant is no par to anything else in this world….He waters the plant daily…If any of you need to know about the tips pertaining to gardening,you can approach my father….He is a person with oodle of positive attitude…I have never seen my father uttering a single negative word…….He always keeps himself busy with his work….He helps the neighbours and a very good friend of mine…..I roam with my dad starting from markets to temples,I speak to him all the crappy things to the politics…..He is a person whom I respect a lot,,,,


My granny even at the age 80 never misses her sloga class daily…She not only attends it but practices the slogas regularly….She and my amma together chant slogas for hours….My granny also collects the slogas from different sources and maintains a separate notebook……


But me…I am exclusion….I am not a perfectionist like my amma,I never keep my place tidy,when I recite sloga I yarn, laziness is my friend…..I never read newspapers…sigh!!!!
I am not a optimist like my appa,I mutter negative words,I never water my plants but eat the veggies…..I never keep my Bindhi and after several request from appa I keep the bindhi….But I roam with my appa,I figth with him,I pester him to get me books,Appa don’t forget about the Q and A,which you have promised to get me….My granny learns hard but I relinquish learning,I never collect anything pertaining to studies…..I am the most sluggish creature on earth……Sigh!!!!But my parents never scold me instead they teach me to impart those lovely qualities,But god alone knows when I am going to be a so called good gal….


PS:I glad ,I really glad,after a very long time I did watch the India,srilanka series and what a match in the history of cricketing,simply awesome…
Yet another medal from Australian open……Hmm I am a sports freak……
Thatz it from my garrulous mouth…stay tuned to hear more…..
