WMW - Naan Ee


Intha vaaram Weekend Movie Watchla its "Naan Ee" time :) Oray samayathula tamil, telugu and one more languagela release aagi kalakitrukara movie. The director, Rajamouli, is the hit machine of Andhra. Consecutivea 8 blockbusters he has directed and this one had lot more expectations riding on it. The fact that, Thalai's "Billa-2" got postponed because this one occupied all the theaters speaks for the publicity and hype.

Storywise perusa onumilla. Usual revenge-reincarnation matter thaan. For a change hero takes "E" avatharam in his second innings and villaina samhaaram panra kathai. Nyayapadi intha padathuku hero villain thaan. Right from frame one, Sudeep dominates the movie like anything. Herova vara Naani ku romba kammi screen time. Kedacha gapla Samantha va maanju maanju love pannitu mandaiya poturaar. Samantha....avvvvvvvvvvvvv...veyil kaalathuku etha ice cream sundae. Romba alatikkaama...lighta smile..lighta fear nu...kozhantha ennaamaa act pannuthu. Antha kannalaye kavithai ennamolaam solvangalay..athey athey. Right from her debut movie "Moscowin Kaveri" she has grown looking beautiful with each movie :)

Aprum..padathoda original hero "Ee". Computer graphicsla semmaya velaadirukaanga. Usuala namma oorla CG based moviesla maina sothaparathu depth perception and scalingla. Originalityla focus panren pervazhinu imagela kaatra importancea appearancela vitruvaanga. For example the gorilla in Duet movies logo will look much authentic but it will look bigger than the tree it would be climbing on to. Antha mathiri ilaama..intha padathula..romba menakettu try panni irukaanga. And the screenplay of how the Ee takes revenge with the help of heroine is told semma interestingly. Logiclaam paakama enjoy panna vendia padam.

Another highlight for the movie is the music. WOW. Songs are awesome. Especially the first song sung by Karthik. Usuallavay his voice makes even normal songs sound special. Intha songoda innoru strength Madan Karky oda lyrics. Appakku pillai thappaamal piranthirukaaru. Loved his word play and have always amazed at the ease with which he brings in technical words into tamil and inserts them expertly at the right places. Be it "Kuviyam" in "Ennam Yetho" song from "Ko" or the word love in umpteen different lanugages for "Nanban" or the chinese song sounding like Twinkle twinkle little star in "7aam Arivu" this man has always been upto something. When i heard this song for the first time, what stuck me was the originality of the lyrics and how amazingly it suited the heroines character. She comes as a miniature artist in the movie. Atha base panni "Nun silai seithidum Pon silaiye " nu oru vari varum..and adutha line was even cuter "Pencilai seevidum Pen silaiye". Totally smitten with the song and has been playing non stop on my playlist. Here is the lyrics. Oru kutti poatti. Of the two kavithais given below..which one is more beautiful? one looking out the window or the one below the pic :) heheheee..

Gils verdict : Ee oattathu..intha Ee odum.

Please gils - movie review is fine, but don't quote lyrics of songs. Of all the arts related to Tamil, the one that has plumbed the lowest of lows is lyrics.

I was expecting learned treatise on Samantha vs Andie Macdowell, but .... disappointment .....

Ode to the Nice Guys

This is a tribute to the nice guys. The nice guys that finish last, that never become more than friends, that endure hours of whining and bitching about what assholes guys are, while disproving the very point. This is dedicated to those guys who always provide a shoulder to lean on but restrain themselves to tentative hugs, those guys who hold open doors and give reassuring pats on the back and sit patiently outside the changing room at department stores. This is in honor of the guys that obligingly reiterate how cute/beautiful/smart/funny/sexy their female friends are at the appropriate moment, because they know most girls need that litany of support. This is in honor of the guys with open minds, with laid-back attitudes, with honest concern. This is in honor of the guys who respect a girl's every facet, from her privacy to her theology to her clothing style. This is for the guys who escort their drunk, bewildered female friends back from parties and never take advantage once they...

Padithathil pidithathu

Few authors thrill us to read more of their creations. At times its sheer luck that we might end up with the worse of their lot and might give up on them only to find many other good ones which we would've ignored based on first impression. James Rollins is one such author. My friend's sister introduced me to "Map of Bones" and told me that its in the same genre of "Davinci Code" and since i am a sucker for adventure series she recommended this one to me, with a warning that, at times this guy goes over the board like Ludlum in describing situations. With that warning in mind i began the book. I took my own sweet time to finish it but the book kept me interested. However many times i kept it down i always went for it again to know what happened next. In the end, i pretty much liked the story, though it was totally unbelievable. The story is about the bones of the Three wise men or Magi who visited Jesus when he was a kid. Their bones held a clue to a vast so...

Hearbeat - season 2 - review

What makes a drama series tick, in OTT, that too in Tamil? The question should've been pretty straight forward and not as difficult as it is for making a successful movie, for drama series are dime a dozen across scores of TV channels and none of them are found wanting for audience. The more the cry the merrier the TRP. In that context, the only challenge that OTT platforms might've had while streaming tamil series must've been to choose the path - either the well trodden and worn out cryathons aligning with Satellite channels or try for something genre specific like how they do across English and other foreign languages. This is where Heartbeat series in Hotstar finds the fine balance between being a soap oppaari (no pun intended) in tv and carving a niche OTT audience.  While the setup might've been familiar one for Hindi audience with so many series happening on hospital based storyline, i guess this is a first for tamil. The first season was more on establishing the...
