Arattai arangam :))

Pona postla vantha comments silatha paathu atheye topic for disciya vachu inoru post thethalaamnu thonithu..

Yeattu suraikkainu title poatum...athu storynu mention panniyum..ennoda sinus valartha mookai..undu illainu pannina puniyavangaluku muthal vanakkam (grrrrr)..How to make friends and influence people was the book i had mentioned in that post. Antha titlea pathutu..ivlo basic matteruku kuda book padikanumanu neria kelvi kanaigalai thoduthirukaanga :D I liked the book. It was not the sort of book which i read usually. But it wasnt that bad as i had thought at first. Not too preachy. Didnt offer any shortcuts. Mostly it was real life examples. I love reading trivias and that book was Sooo full of them. And sila examples where really interesting. I've done the opposite of what was done by the protagonist in a similar situation and it backfired for me like how it was mentioned there. Any book will be interesting the moment it synchs up with you. Try giving this book a read. I think you wouldnot regret it. Not that if it worked for a million people it should for you..but its definitely a safe bet.

Athey flowla another recommendation. Well..intha book lot more famous than the first one. Ekkachakka padam vanthachu based on this. But the books legacy still remains and it holds its own amidst the visual fare meted out. GODFATHER ( thala padam ileenga) by Mario Puzo. I typed 2 full paras about the book and realised howmuchever i gloss about this one. Its simply not enough!! Give it a try. You will surely have a different experience in reading.

To round up my reading recommendations..here is one blog which you must visit if you are a fan of short stories especially in tamil... banuvasan..Romba arumaiya kathai ezhutharar..awesome twists and amazing writeup. Thanks to Divya for introducing me to this site.

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...

Sambhavam : Adhyaayam onnu - movie review

Kudos to Malluwood for having owned the sci-fi and other fantasy genres from Hollywood. They've managed to create hits on the most difficult genres to succeed in India. Be it Minnal Murali or Lokah chapter 1 and several other horror/thriller genres as well, Malayalam story writers have aced the art of coming up with mind boggling scripts rivalling their Hollywood counterparts. Even for those that are lift offs from Japanese Korean movies, when the same is available for every other director, the best work comes from their industry and credit should be given where its due. I am not sure if this movie is an inspiration from any other European/Asian or American version, but the presentation, picturisation everything keeps you spell bound and is quite engaging as well. Storywise, it is about time loop concept, possibly the most interesting yet potentially confusing of plot lines. A police officer gets transferred from city to a remote village. He sees an accident on his way to the stati...
