Sheldon spot conundrum

Gilsbert goes t new office. Somehow, all potti thatting kambenis have a common approach to seat arrangement. Either they would be all arranged in row after row like space station launch control rooms or they would be like booths in a bar with 4 per cubicle. However personalized you make it, it always look "official". Wherever the location is, if there is gilsbert, kodumai has to follow illaya.

Midnight 8 AM on a Monday. Gilsbert being the only person on the shift, potti thatting vigorously.
Suddenly someone walks up to him. Midnightla pei padam night show poitu arandu merandu ukkanthirukara mathiri, yaarumay illatha aapeecela tea aathitrukara Gilsbert, jumps in fright, hearing the sound. The person who walked in looked more annoyed than Gilsbert, probably for being pushed into the shift or veetla poorikattai kaalangaathalaye prayoga paduthitaangalo ennamo.

"Echuseme, why are you sitting here"
Gilsbert manasukkulla nonthu kittay mind voicela "naan mattum ennada aasapatta vanthirukken".."err..this is my place sir"
"No. You are mistaken..this is my spot"
Big Bang Theoryla Sheldon fana irupaano nu lighta thoninaalum, thooka kalakathula seat maari vanthutomonu ella confusionoda Gilsbert got up.
"Nethu kooda naan Inga thaana sir ukkanthitrunthen"
"Appo naan maathi solrengareengala"
"Sorry sir..naan Inga pudusu..nethu intha seat thaan allot pannanga..probably number maathitangalo ennamo..neengalum new joineeya?"
"Yov..I the senioraakum..have been here since 200 years"
"Athana varushama oray seatlya ukkanthirukeenga"nu yosichittay "Inga rendu cubicle irukku..unga seat number sollunga sir"
"54..ithu thaannu solromla"
"oh..ok..illa ungala intha fourth floorla ithuvaraikkum meet pannathilla athaan keten..sorry sir"
"huh..ennathu...fourth floora?..ithu third illaya"
Pakkathula vera yarachum irukaangalanu noattam vitutu "sorry Gilsbert..naan thaan floor maari vanten..very sorry" he vazhinjifies lot more and leaves that place.
"Adapaavi...oru nimishathula ennaye kozhapitaanay..naan thooka kalakathula pakkathu office pogama en seatukku varathay peria vishayam..ivan namma vida kozhappa casea irukaan ..hmmmm...namakku iruutula erumai teriathunna ivanukku pagallaye pasu maadu teriaathu pola.."

Kodumais Kantinues..

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...
