I have many things to say. As the reader in you can guess, it is all about Vishwaroopam. Before I start venting out, I would like to state for the record that I have seen the movie twice – in a sub-standard movie hall with no Auro 3D sound effects. But I have seen the […]
I think it would be a long rant once I get started. For now, I just to want to share this picture to symbolically add my signature to the long list of protesters. Protesters who find the Tamil Nadu government’s action on “Vishwaroopam” appalling. I will wait for the judicial verdict before I share my […]
Q: Has there ever been a manhunt in my lifetime that I could directly connect with…more than this..ever..? A: No. Q: Do I feel the same sense of anger and relief after watching the movie, as what I felt back in 2011 when a little past my dinner time, I got the first news about […]

During the American election season, my primary venting revolves around the left and the right. What is right according […]
Last night I watched “Iruvar”. This probably was my third time watching the movie in whole. But my first time in at least 7 or 8 years. The following is a collection of thoughts limping out of that experience and it may very well include some serendipitous discoveries that could only be attributed to my […]
Last week was quite extraordinary in the sense that I hit upon 3 different ideas that I wanted to blog about..here. This hasn’t happened in a while and I was thrilled. But then, I was worried that I would overshoot my January quota and end up with a drought filled February. So, I thought I […]
I had read a few incomplete reviews of the movie much before Dec 21, the date on which Tintin entered the shores of USA. Dec 21 was a delayed entry. But then, the fact that the likes of Tintin & Asterix are relatively unknown here in the US (& yet one of the most popular […]
