Milestone post

Self peethal time again. Crossed a kutty milestone of 1 million hits and is more than half way into the next 100k by the time i posted this. The trend of the hits and views increasing when i don't post and the same decreasing whenever i post continues well into this cycle as well!! Enna thaanya solla vareenga. Post podrana iliayanu paathu pogra gumbal post padikaratha vida jaasthiya iruko? Oru vazhia kadaiya mooditana nu check panrathukaga athana per visitinga?? :D :D Hehehe..either way. Varugaikum tharugaikum nandri. 

Anaithu creditsum Thalai Rameshkay urithaaguga. He is the foremost inspiration, perspiration and respiration behind all these posts. Thanks Thala for regularly commenting and unga comments vandhurkanu paakrathukaga naan selfa adichay visit countay oru 40% hits ethirukum nenakren. Mikka nanri for all other regular and irregular visitors as well. Intha milestonelaam indha blogspacela activea iruntha palar reached decades back. Like the proverbial tortoise, it has literally taken two and a half decades to cross the same space long left behind by fellow prayaanis. Innum ethanai naal odumo theriayathu..odra varaikum, so long and see you in next.

In a world moving towards super short form of content, and reducing attention spans, it really good to see continue to write these elaborate blog posts, and being really consistent with that. You are definitely an inspiration!

Its easy to get one zillion views prattling some nonsense - Charlie bit my finger or the inane Tiktok or Instagram junk that appeals to the basest of instincts. If Shakespeare had been alive today and out his masterpieces in blog posts, I can bet that he would have received a sum total of137 views. For Gilsu to post such good content for years and years and touch a million views is something remarkable. Brilliant Gilsu.

I too am befuddled as to why your views increase when you don't post. Clearly, human wisdom is not enough to understand the machinations of the bot !

Congratulations Gilsu. This blog will carry on for ever, and will lay claim to the longest continous blog forum of all time.

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...

Timeline by Micheal crichton

Michael Crichton along with Arthur Hailey is my favorite author. It gives immense thrill to read their books and their storylines are full of insights on the industry or genre or the institution about which the premise may be based, almost like reading a subject matter book but interestingly written in simple language which can be followed by laymen. I remember reading this book sometime around my college first year or may be bit earlier around that time. It was obviously a hard copy and was shared with me by a school mate of mine, who was also the one who introduced me to Asimov. He gave me "Prelude to Foundation" that i read for almost an year. "Timeline" was intriguing and kept me interested sheerly by its concept of time travel and i was smitten by the thought process when i read it first. This time, co-incidentally, i was also watching the movie based on the same story in parallel and somehow both the book and the adaptation were disappointing! I can understand...

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...
