GLEAMS UNRAVELLED

“God created men first. So that means men are superior “. “ There is a need for trial before perfection. So obviously women are a cut above and perfect than men “ – This is how the story of “Unnale Unnale” – a film by Jeeva begins. After creating much waits, the film has hit the screen on Tamil New Year.

The spat between who is superior is carried out through out the movie by Karthik (debut Vinay) and Jhansi (Sadha). “Love at first sight “ still being adopted in Tamil movies is no exception for Karthik to fall in love with Jhansi. Their love blossoms with much of Jhansi’s doubts and expectations troubling Karthik who loves to enjoy his life.

So at one point of time they both take their own roads.

Karthik is sent on an assignment to Australia where on his trip he meets Deepika (debut Tanisha) who is friendly, bubbly and too cool for a gal. Jhansi and Deepika work for the same firm. The triangle love story begins here when Deepika falls in love with Karthik.

With not much twists and turns Jhansi still never lets her ego go off, but goes off from Karthik.

The story tries to adopt many scenes and portrayals from some bollywood movies. Raju Sundaram and Srinath whose glimpse in the first few minutes of the movie along with the hero make us conjure up the three friends of “Dil Chahta hai “ – The same funky, cool guys who ever like to have fun and hang out with girls.

Jhansi’s portrayal in the movie as a solemn, somber girl and Karthik asking her to smile and live life every moment creates nostalgic reminiscences of “Kal ho na ho”.

Cast and Crew:

Sadha has no role in the movie other than fighting, arguing with karthik or staring at the camera irately. Tanisha who has done her part well needs some applause, but Kollywood is not the right place for her. Vinay doesn’t create a sense amidst the audience that he is a debut, the music of Harris Jeyaraj and picturization of songs and scenes shooted at Australia are good. “June ponal “ definitely needs a good round of applause.

With an out of the blue climax, though a normal one, the film with rich scenes which doesn’t stay in our minds after 3 hours could be described as “A fad not worth for a movie. “

I had been thinking of writing about this for a long time .But dint.Now since i am not occupied with anything else,i am writing this. Its worth my blog page ..lol.And on much demand i have used the names of the people involved.

Characters - JU (JANGI) , Olive (Lavs)
Minor characters -Gul ,Div ,Subhi ,JC
Characters potrayed in this incident are absolutely non-fictious. They have two hands,two legs and whatsoever qualities needed to be human-beings.
Some words on the characters before i move on:
The most happening person in my class JANGI-Became popular as "JU gal" after "Those 9 hours" . Sorry,revelations has limits.
Olive -named so because she likes someone like 'Brutus'- Miss.Laughing Beauty of my class.Tell her the worst joke,she will laugh for ten mintues.

JU has SCOOTY PEP . Sorry the name reads so.But it is just an engine surrounded by some metal guards.It has starting trouble.You will never know when this so-called-vehicle(SCV) will stop .And if you are a co-rider ,then definitely you have to be ready to get down amidst heavy
traffic because of some problem in the SCV.[Experience of DIV and GUL].It has headlights but they do not glow at night (not in day either).There is something called a brake which a vehicle should have.But tis SCV will stop only if you go and hit somewhere.You can turn on the ignition and sit on the SCV to reach your destination. And Olive gets lift till Guindy on this SCV.Sometimes Gul also joins them.Triples on SCV.Sad story .
This incident took place in the last week October.The day before Olive's birthday.

Parking Lot
Olive -hey jangi i have to go home early today .Tomorrow my birthday na,so i have to go and do some shopping.
Jangi-Why worry when you come with me..[Thats the biggest worry]

Ju and Olive riding .Suddenly a big pit.. Olive notices that before JU.
Olive- Jangiiiiiiiiiiiii....
Jangi's immediate reaction- She turns back to find out what is wrong.
Jangi(trying to face Olive) - What??
[next only sound]
SCV is lying on one side.Our Heroines -JU and Olive on the other side.Both of them laughing together.But Olive starts to have tears.Now as per the rules of the roads in Chennai,some third party comes for help.SCV is being lifted and placed in a corner.Olive is asked to relax.Now Olive searches for JU.. [enge?? enge??]
JU is still lying in pit .What is she doing??JU is messaging SU... [wow~~Now is SU gonna appear in the scene?] nah !! :( :(
JU endures sever damage in the knee .She has had wounds and scratches
in legs and hands.Same case with Olive too.

That night my cell beeps. Its a message from Subhi.She rarely has balance to message from her mobile.
subhi-"Hey JC ,Jangi and lavs met up with accident"
me-"oh what happened?"
she narrates me.Then i call up JU . and to my suprise i got her line .After "those 9 hours" JU's line had been difficult to obtain.
me- Hey what happened .You met up with accident? how ? how are you now?
ju- hahahahahaha..
She did nothing other than laughing.Then narrated something.After some 3 days JU and Olive make up to college.And i repeat the story to everyone who asks me,teasing JU and Olive.They keep laughing.Now everything is fine. 4 days left for end semester exam.

Now JC on wheels. Riding her Scooty .NO, this is not SCV .Its quite perfect. And what happens??Yea,i met up with an accident on the Velachery Main Road. lol.and i too fell in a pit .The road was wet and slippery and velachery main road is worse during late evenings.[goddamn velachery road]And got wounded up in knee and worst,in my chin too.I messaged JU saying the 'co-incidence' . or to tell that her prayers have been fulfilled.Then my phone keeps on ringing.Ramya calls and showers her utterly concern over me.JU calls .. She laughs and laughs ..Subhi calls..Div&Gul msg and scold me for careless driving..
Olive's msg- "hey you also fell down like us.. hahahahehe. You are not able to open mouth too huhuhu:) :D :D "
Reply- Undisclosed.

The groundnut of my class calls up and then spreads the msg to all .Now i turn up for end semester exam (managed to walk till exam hall).Everyone inquires about accident and health.After exam,renamed as "BOLT" by Ramya's 'you-know-who' [Sorry ramya ;)].And i took the Velachery road after that only twice. Managed to take my stride along the IT highway .
And i even gave a treat for this accident !

When I told Ramya that this is going to be my blog for the day, she asked me if its "Unanswered questions or answers" .Readers with the same confusion ,its the answers which i haven't answered to the questions so far.And yea to people who don't know Ramya,its better you don't know ! lol..

And i am totally jobless today .Had nothing to do other than publishing this post.

Some questions from people really sound obvious that i never reply to them.
Listed below are some samples.

I am online in YM and suddenly a window pops out asking..

[sender-undisclosed]:"Hey JC you alive ?"
"how can i be online if i am dead ?? "

Now i get into the sms. Annoyingly interesting sms i should mention.

sms1-"hey you there?"
my reply- where? (but i ve ne'er replied this)

"I dont message from my no itself. why would i do from someother number"

Some more answers:

People wont be interested when you write about issues involving you -Its my wish, my blog page and i can write anything i want to.You people can stay away if they aren't interested.

Why doesn't your sms count get over for the day?-Its because i don't sms [silly!]

Some more unanswered - still unanswered..lolzz :)

1)I dint get or read your message yet !
2)I dont have balance to reply or there is some network problem !
3)I dont like to reply you!
4)I dont like you !

So i guess the Unanswered answers are revealed.

"The woods are lovely, dark and deep,
But I have promises to keep,
And miles to go before I sleep,
And miles to go before I sleep"

I dint know how to blaze a trail of my blog. So I have started with my favorite lines of Robin Wood.

And for all the people out there, if you aren’t apprehensive about my blog I m least perturbed. This is my own web page where I can post all the crap I want to, not for you to read wasting your time and whining later telling why do I write stuffs like this. Others move on!

Wanted to blog about “2006 in a glance”. Even jotted down points to be included in it but I was bogged down with yet another thoughts after my New Year celebration. No I was not partying. I celebrated my new year with the kids at KAAKUM KARANGAL orphanage at Thiruvanmiyur. I sought after to write about the orphanage (also old age home) and my time there, how I felt, rather how the inmates of the home felt and ways to improvise. But then again stuck up with my activities. It would be quite a mirth if I said they were related to my academics. Okay. I concede that I was also with some other errands like orkutting (bah!! Jobless am I?? ), Watching movies endlessly on TV and dvds. My dvd player is almost howling. Turning out to be a movie buff!! Right now humming “tere bina” from Guru (after effects of watching that film??)

Now I must also put in the picture what else I did. I have joined as a volunteer in an NGO called “DREAM INDIA2020”. Sounds fine I believe. I am in a few communities in orkut like “chennai social work “, “ help orphans”, etc., (don’t come and ask me if Mother Teresa’s blood is in my veins) and I had started a thread about my new year’s orphanage visit in those communities. The next day I check my inbox, I get a mail from an anonymous person introducing himself as Dream India2020 volunteer and requesting details about the orphanage I visited. I feel elated. To tell more about Dream India, this project mainly is implicated with the upliftment of the rural children. Dream India originated from fervor of a few youngsters and it spread therein across many cities in India and Chennai is no exception in the list. Right now Dream India is associated with helping the rural kids with their education, teaching them basic maths and English. It also helps to provide impetus and encouragement to the needy who are striving hard to live but still manage to study. Most of the volunteers are young college-goers and IT professionals and they aim to make a change. Talking to one of the volunteers, he said he had the inspiration from Dr. Kalam’s vision. A few people from my college are already volunteers and asking them how they got to know about this and their answer was “Orkut”. Now you understand why I was busy orkutting??

For long I had been thinking that orkut is really a waste of time though I was initially engrossed in it. But then in due course of time lost inquisitiveness and suddenly through orkut many things happen. “The real happiness comes from living your life for others”. These are not my words but of Amitabh Bachan’s in the film “BLACK”. And yet another notion from the film “RANG DE BASANTI “ tat youngsters can change the nation. Well I know many of us love these movies and do accept the thoughts so is Dream India, heading towards fulfilling Kalam’s vision with active youngster’s soul as its spirit and making MIGHTY INDIA where “EDUCATION TO ALL” has been achieved.

And now I become conscious that there are
“Miles to go before I sleep
And miles to go before I sleep”

Grooved onto the awe-inspiring music, Here I am after a very long time wit yet another blog of mine. [PJ, especially on your demand :)] I dint know why I have become this bloody sluggish that I don’t even take time to post what I deem about . Myriad of thoughts seem to dwell in my mind these days .. [Hope I am not thrown any exceptions ]
I couldn’t make out what the premise of this write up looks like – philosophical or quite enthusiastic. Or it may even delineate me as a fanatic ..
Thoughts of what I have been doing all these days leave me apprehensive . Spoke to my buddy yesterday after a really long time n talking about my hustle n bustle activities my friend quotes my life to be “SUPER COOL” [!!! ]

Ahem.. I wanted to write about the grandeur of beach[ Bessy rocks big time :)].. The elegant sky which was pink. Wit me n my friends in beach.. on that exquisite evening..[Arrgg.. what happened next.. Now Aish n Rams pls don start scolding me !! ] But then I couldn’t get whatever thing more to write about that…

“ Who cares” ..” i am least bothered ”.. “So what “ .. These phrases are established trademarks of me.. I live in my own world mosta time. I have certain ideologies to what I stick to and I am very much self –opinionated. Its not that I don’t appreciate the opinions of others ..I am compassionate and empathetic . I am always ears . But still I don’t give up myself for the sake of others.
I don’t know if this is what people call “Attitude”.. Or even worse to mark me as “Egoistic”..
Well need I have to concede to it..?? Egoism and Altruism . Egoism - giving up others for self. Altruism - giving up self for others. Good explanation I guess..
Who is not selfish.?? who is not egoistic?? [ I am hunting for people who could give me a NO to the above questions] Man lives on this earth for himself and not for others. So there is nothing wide of the mark in being self centered.

The creator himself was egoistic.. he was self generated ,self motivated..[Read somewhere dude] so ubiquitously comes a “SELF” .. But then this doesn’t unerringly mean that I don’t heed about others..

The very first man invented fire for the very sake that he wanted to bear with the cold. It was his self centered invention for his own wish. But he never bunged with that.. he taught that to his brotherhood and here we lit fire when we want to warm ourselves.. Hats off to the primitive man for being self centered.. So I connote to say that there is nothing without SELF..

So accept everything as it comes.. Everything happens for a reason . Something must happen to realize something else.. It happens with everyone .No one is perfect.
You are born into this world for a purpose.. Realize your worth and set up a goal to find your foot steps well established.. Never let yourself down.. “ BE YOURSELF “
