Ithellam Doopu.! Nanban Thaan Toppu!! The friendship day is internationally observed on the first Sunday of August or August 3 whichever comes earlier. Just thought let us greet one another a Happy Friendship Day on this occasion. And I just I would share the hilarity-cum-awesome song 'Ithellam Dupe' from the amazing fim 'Kandasamy' (starring Seeyon Vikram and Shriya Sharan) Lyrics Courtesy: http://tamilyrics.wordpress.com/2009/06/24/idhellam-dupe-pizza-kanthaswamy-lyrics/

It is always more greener the other side ... People always think that the home-native has more problems haunting them and try to find and seek solace elsewhere. In one of the more recent blogs we discussed about some one having serious allegations against something and they have proposed radical steps towards seeking novel solutions from strange quarters. I just for them and similar people would share the following moral song from 'Yes Boss'. जाता है तू कहां रे बाबा सुन प्यारे रुक जा रे दुनिया के बड़े टेढ़े ये रास्ते खतरे ही खतरे हैं तेरे वास्ते जाता है तू कहां ... आजकल ऐसी भी लूट है कहने को प्यार है समझो तो झूठ है देख तू लुटने लगा तेरा इश्तहार किसके हाथों में जाता है तू कहां ... प्यार का जो करते हैं शोर ध्यान है तेरा जिनकी ओर आ मैं बताऊं कौन है वो रात में डाकू दिन में चोर जाता है तू कहां ... हाथ जोड़ूं तेरे पड़ूं तेरे पइयां छोड़ के न जा मुझे छोड़ के मेरी बइयां सुन ले मेरी अर्ज ओ सजन जाने वाले ये तो बता जाता है तू कहां ... बिकते हैं ईमान यहां बाज़ारों में अंजाने तू ...

Good or bad always contributes to His Lotus Feet There is a good old golden saying "All roads lead to Rome". Be it Good or Bad it always culminates (and bubba it has to :)) into the Lotus feet of the Lord. This seems to be succinctly evident from the previous two posts. The extremist discussions on social concern thoughts and anti-socials too came to a graceful thought to the Lotus feet of Swamiyae Saranam Ayyappa. Lokaveeram Maha Poojyam Sarva Rakshakaram Vibhum Parvathi Hridayanandam Sastharam Pranamaamyaham Swamiyae Saranam Ayyappa!

The Saturn Spares No Entity In The Universe The power of Saturn is enormous. Amongst all the planets, Saturn (aka) Sanaishwaran alone earns the glory of being called 'iswaran'. There is a saying that Saturn is incomparable to bestow or to penalize. (சனியைப் போல கொடுப்பாரும் இல்லை; கெடுப்பாரும் இல்லை). I have the following incidents that make me think that way: Sabarimala.org.in was the official website released last year but for the past two months the website is simply down. There is no definitive responsible contact point and when I inspected the domain ownership for this and the website of Travancore Dewaswom Board both are leading to InfoCareIT and Saturn . I had a choice of reading a social concern thought about a new entrant blogger. One of the sentences in the blogger's post was like venting out allegations against some one for having a close affection to Ayyappa . Whilst I salute the Ayyappa devotee for his great affection and devotion to the Lord at the same ti...

Atheist Unethical Terrorists Venturing to blowup and sabotage Sabarimala In a most horrendous and universally shocking news that NDTV carried this month was a directive from Kerala High Court directing Travancore Devaswom Board to initiate feasibility studies on expanding the width of Ponnu Pathinettam Padi (The Holy Eighteen Steps) and to expand the width of the doors near the Sree Koil (sanctum sanctorum of Swamiye Saranam Ayyappa). Waste of Court Time This seems to be a followup of some public interest litigation by a psycho called Prasanna Kumar from Aluva in Ernakulam. When Chennai High Courts serve as a rolemodel to dismiss such crazy petitions and warn the petitioners I am not sure what caused the Justice Bench (CN Ramachandran Nair and PS Gopinath) to even consider such weird demands. Do they have so much time free in their hands? We have seen another discussion sometime back on not to waste court time over here . Going by these directives we can only deduce the following: T...

सत्यमेव जयते -- வாய்மையே வெல்லும் -- Truth Alone Triumphs Flipping over the pages of newspapers these days is really pissing us off. So much of fraudulent activities in almost every spheres. At least, the southern metropolitan city of Chennai seems to be bagging the crowning glory of duplicates and fakes in every sphere. The city spun off the mega 'fake stamp paper' scam in its registration department a few years back that rocked not just the nation but investors across the world. The investigations are still in full swing. Sections of city cops do earn a name for their 'fake' encounters . Alongside a significant section of law representatives earn a dubious distinction of fabricating stories in the litigation-petitions they handle to 'appease' the client and to illicitly 'strengthen' their wallets. 'Fake' Medicines 'Fake' Medicos Now 'Fake' Certificates to admissions to Medical, Engineering, Arts and other higher educational in...

"Chak De India" repeats in reality The opening scene of Chak De India shows up with a penalty stroke issue and Shahrukh being unnecessarily branded as a traitor (गद्दार). He had to spend around eight years out of his hometown in renunciation of his hockey team position. He took the challenge and position to train the women's hockey team and made them win again the Aussies in the film. Today's headlines shows that a hockey team coach has been accused in a sexual harassment of a junior member in his team. Investigations by the hockey commitee is in progress against him.
