Kabali: Rajinikanth is still the only boss of Tamil cinema…!!!

_314ef876-4e6c-11e6-a5f1-138dd21979a8

If you live in Chennai and aren’t familiar with the frenzy surrounding Rajinikanth’s films, July 22 might come as a shock to you. The undisputed superstar of southern cinema is ready to enthrall his fans with his new film, Kabali, on Friday.

There’s no stopping Rajinikanth even at 65. Though his last two films – Lingaa and Kochadaiyaan – didn’t hit the bull’s eye at the box office, he is ready to reinvent himself. Probably the only superstar in the world who isn’t afraid of showing his balding head, Rajinikanth is a people’s man. From setting up retirement funds for his director friends to obliging politicians, he has done it all. And now his fans are ready to pay the star back for his courtesies.

With a fifteen-minute role in Apoorva Raagangal (1975), Rajinikanth launched a scintillating career that was to become synonymous with charisma, magic and miracles. The tricks learnt during his stint with the Karnataka State Transport Corporation turned Shivaji Rao Gaekwad aka Rajinikanth into the actor every fan of Tamil cinema was waiting for. With that style, that ruggedness, that majestic gait and that enchanting persona, things had little choice but to fall in place. By now, we have heard and read so much about the man that we almost believe Rajinikanth was born to be a superstar.

His Hindi films didn’t work, and even if they did, somebody else ended up taking the limelight. But then, he was not the same man then. Had the movies been released today, many of them would have crossed the Rs 100-crore mark. The things Rajinikanth can do naturally, contemporary stars cannot hope to achieve even with the help of technically adept camera crews and state-of-the-art editing softwares.

The recently released Robot (Enthiran) was also successful in Hindi. Shivaji the Boss and Chandramukhi are shown regularly on some film channels, and nobody objects to him romancing the likes of Shriya Sharan, Aishwarya Rai Bachchan, Deepika Padukone and Sonakshi Sinha. In fact, some die-hard fans would go to the extent of saying that these heroines can’t match up to Rajinikanth’s dancing, screen presence and looks.

Research scholars could do entire projects on the reasons behind Rajinikanth’s mass popularity in North India, a region where he hasn’t done any ‘original’ film since Bulandi in 2000. And, mind you, those who remember Bulandi do so only for this man and how Anil Kapoor copied him in the second half. In case you’re trying to remember, his name was Gajraj Thakur in the film.

Rajinikanth was initially all about jokes of the ‘Chuck Norris’ kind, but everything turned into respect for the thespian before anybody even realised it. Be it his pictures with ailing children or be it his photographs from the sets of his films, he always comes across as a genuine person. His personal life reflects the same. Unlike some other Southern superstars, who used stardom to destroy their own superstar status, Rajinikanth’s never entangled into any controversy that was personal. Whenever he spoke for a cause or about something political, he cared to keep his personal away from it.

It’s difficult for big stars to keep away from politics in Tamil Nadu and other South Indian states. The alluring seats of power attract with so much force that one lets go of legacy and jumps on to the favouring tides without thinking much of the people who made them the stars and masters of the local spheres.

We know of other actors who are desperately trying to fit into the shoes of Thalaiva. It’s so in-our-face yet the audience is making these ventures successful. You think it’s happening without Rajinikanth’s unseen help. He may not have asked for it, but the fans know their duty. They simply can’t see Thalaiva going out of prominence. Now, you understand why that Chennai Express song was such a perfect marketing gimmick.

The boss of Tamil cinema is ready to reclaim his throne with Kabali. Will the fans help him this time?

வாரம் ஒரு கவிதை….” காதல் கொலை ” !

 

காதல்  கொலை ….
…………….
அந்த சிறு பூவின் இதயத்தில் இல்லை  நீ என தெரிந்தும்  ஒரு
வாள் எடுத்து அந்த மலரின் இதயத்தை நீ பிளந்தது  ஏன் ?
காதல்  என்ன , கடையில் கிடைக்கும் கத்தரிக்காய் என
நினைத்தாயோ ….இல்லை ” நான் ஒரு ஆண் ” என்னும்
இறுமாப்பா  உனக்கு ?
உன் ஆணவ கொலை வெறியால் நசுங்கி பொசுங்கி விட்டதே ஒரு
சின்னஞ்சிறு  மலர்  இன்று …
காதலுக்காக “நான் செய்த ஒரு கொலை” என்று நீ சொல்வாய்!
ஆனால் நீ     வெட்டி சாய்த்தது ஒரு உயிரை மட்டுமல்ல …பலர் கண்
முன்னால் சரிந்து  வீழ்ந்த அந்த இளம் தளிரின் புன்னகை தவழும்
குழந்தை முகம் நினைத்து நினைத்து  தினம்  தினம் மனம் துடிக்கும்
என் போன்ற பலர்   உயிரையும்  சேர்த்துதான் …….

மூனுசுழி “ண” , ரெண்டுசுழி “ன” என்ன வித்தியாசம்…? தெரியுமா உங்களுக்கு ?

 

மூனுசுழி “ண” , ரெண்டுசுழி “ன” என்ன வித்தியாசம்?

படிக்காதவர்க்கும் நல்ல தமிழைக் கற்றுத்தந்த
நடிகர்திலகம் சிவாஜி கணேசன்.
கண்ணப்பன் னு எழுதச்சொன்னா ஒருத்தன்
4சுழி 5சுழி போட்டானாம்!
என்னப்பா னு கேட்டதுக்கு அவன் கேட்டானாம்-
“தமிழ் வளரவே கூடாதாய்யா?
ரெண்டு சுழி மூனு சுழி இருக்கலாம்
4சுழி 5சுழி இருக்கக் கூடாதா?

தமிழ் எழுத்துகளில் –
ரெண்டுசுழி ன என்பதும் தவறு!
மூனுசுழி ண என்பதும் தவறு!

ண இதன் பெயர் டண்ணகரம்,
ன இதன் பெயர் றன்னகரம் என்பதே சரி.

மண்டபம், கொண்டாட்டம் – என எங்கெல்லாம் இந்த மூனு சுழி ணகர ஒற்றெழுத்து வருதோ, அதையடுத்து வர்ர உயிர்மெய் எழுத்து ட வர்க்க எழுத்தாகத்தான் இருக்கும். இதனால இதுக்கு டண்ணகரம் னு பேரு. (சொல்லிப் பாருங்களேன்?)

தென்றல், சென்றான் – என எங்கெல்லாம் இந்த ரெண்டு சுழி னகரஒற்றெழுத்து வருதோ, அதையடுத்து வர்ர உயிர்மெய் எழுத்து ற வர்க்க எழுத்தாகத்தான் இருக்கும். இதனால இதுக்கு றன்னகரம் னு பேரு. (சும்மா சொல்லிப்பாருங்க?)

இது ரெண்டும் என்றுமே மாறி வராது..
(இதுல கூட பாருங்களேன்? பிரியாத காதலர்கள் மாதிரிச் சேர்ந்து சேர்ந்தே வருகிறதப் பாருங்களேன்! இது புரியாம இதுகளை நாம பிரிச்சுடக் கூடாதுல்ல?)

வேற மாதிரி சொன்னா
இதுவும் வர்க்க ஒற்றுமைதான்!
(வர்க்க எழுத்து-ன்னா,
சேர்ந்து வர்ர எழுத்து! அவ்ளோதான்)

இந்தப் பெயரோடு (டண்ணகரம், றன்னகரம்)
இந்த ண, ன எழுத்துகளை அறிந்து கொண்டால்
எழுத்துப் பிழையும் குறையும்.

எப்புடீ?

மண்டபமா? மன்டபமா? சந்தேகம் வந்தா…
பக்கத்துல ட இருக்கா,
அப்ப இங்க மூனு சுழி ண தான் வரும்.
ஏன்னா அது டண்ணகரம்.

கொன்றானா? கொண்றானா? சந்தேகம் வந்தா…
பக்கத்துல ற இருக்கா
அப்ப இங்க ரெண்டு சுழி ன தான் வரும்.
ஏன்னா அது றன்னகரம்.
என்று புரிந்து கொள்ளலாம்.

Beauty of English Language …!!!

 

Beauty of English language :

Professor Ernest Brennecke of Columbia is credited with inventing a sentence that can be made to have eight different meanings by placing ONE WORD in all possible positions in the sentence:
“I hit him in the eye yesterday.”

The word is “ONLY”.

The Message:

1. ONLY I hit him in the eye yesterday. (No one else did.)
2. I ONLY hit him in the eye yesterday. (Did not slap him.)
3. I hit ONLY him in the eye yesterday. (I did not hit others.)
4. I hit him ONLY in the eye yesterday (I did not hit outside the eye).
5. I hit him in ONLY the eye yesterday (Not other organs).
6. I hit him in the ONLY eye yesterday (He doesn’t have another eye).
7. I hit him in the eye ONLY yesterday (Not today).
8. I hit him in the eye yesterday ONLY (Did not wait for today).

This is the beauty and complexity of the English language.

Quotable Quotes….”The most beautiful thing is to see a person you love smiling. And even more beautiful is knowing that you are the reason behind it.”

 

All About Relationship- 30 Quotes

2. Keep people in your life who truly love you, motivate you, encourage you, enhance you, and make you happy. If you know people who do none of these things, let them go.
3. Too often we underestimate the power of a touch, a smile, a kind word, a listening ear, an honest compliment, or the smallest act of caring – all of which have the potential to turn a life around.
4. The most beautiful thing is to see a person you love smiling. And even more beautiful is knowing that you are the reason behind it.
5. Choose your relationships wisely. It’s better to be alone than to be in bad company.
6. Being alone does not mean you are lonely, and being lonely does not mean you are alone.
7. Fall in love when you’re ready, not when you’re lonely.

25. If you feel like your ship is sinking, it might be a good time to throw out the stuff that’s been weighing it down
26. Let go of people who bring you down, and surround yourself with those who bring out the best in you.
27. Just because it didn’t last forever, doesn’t mean it wasn’t worth your while.
28. Say what you mean and mean what you say. Don’t expect others to read your mind, and don’t play games with their heads and hearts. Don’t tell half-truths and expect people to trust you when the full truth comes out. Half-truths are no better than lies. And don’t ignore someone you care about, because lack of concern hurts more than angry words.
29. Lies help no one in the long run. So… 1) Don’t say “I love you” if you don’t mean it. 2) Don’t say “I understand” if you have no clue. 3) Don’t say “I’m sorry” if you’re not. 4) Be honest with yourself and your loved ones.
30. Tell the truth, or eventually someone will tell it for you.

Make These Little Changes and Improve Your Life….

 

The hardest part of adopting a new habit is beginning a new routine to shape that habit. A new habit can take some 30 days to establish, but once it’s assimilated into your life, it’s extremely easy to keep up. Here are 16 changes that you can make to become a better person:

af80adc2-4280-41d5-8c5d-f40715a844a6

1. Use words that encourage happiness

A good example of this is to watch how you reply when someone asks how you are. Instead of replying in a neutral fashion by saying “I’m fine”, or “I’m okay”, try saying: “I’m fabulous!”, or “I’m great!” If life has blessed you with many things to be happy about, then you should acknowledge that through your choice of words. It’s a basic universal truth that positivity only serves to breed more positivity, so be conscious of that.

2. Try something new every day

The first time we do or experience something can impact us so profoundly that it stays with us for the rest of our lives. Obviously this isn’t true for every single new thing we do or experience, but trying something new can open doors to life-changing opportunities.

3. Do something selfless every day

Life rewards you for the effort you put in. If you make a positive impact on someone else’s life, you also impact your own life in a positive way. See how you can make someone happier, or lessen their suffering. Being selfless is extremely rewarding, and once you get into the habit, you’ll be hooked.

The first time we do or experience something can impact us so profoundly that it stays with us for the rest of our lives. Obviously this isn’t true for every single new thing we do or experience, but trying something new can open doors to life-changing opportunities.

4. Learn and practice one new skill each day

Being self-reliant is crucial for being able to live a vital, healthy and productive life. If we don’t master a basic set of skills, then we don’t get to have a mastery over our own lives. Think of learning a new skill each day as taking the steps needed to turn yourself into a jack of all trades. And besides, learning new skills is fun.

5. Teach someone something new every day

Strengths and talents differ from one individual to another, so enlighten someone with your uniqueness each day. Take note of what people ask you for help with on a regular basis. Are you good at math? Are you very creative? Try devoting some time each day to teaching someone the thing or things that you’re good at.

6. Dedicate an hour a day to your passion

What is the one thing in life that makes you tick? It could be anything – spirituality, collecting things, fighting for a cause you believe in – the list is endless. Indulging your passion on a daily basis will bring lots of added happiness and meaning into your life.

7. Treat everyone nicely

Regardless of whether someone is rude to you or not, just reciprocate as nicely and calmly as you can. Doing so doesn’t imply that you’re a fake person – it’s indicative of your emotional maturity. Treat everyone as you wish to be treated, namely with kindness and respect. Do this consciously, and you’ll see how the negativity around you will dissipate as if it was never there in the first place.

8. Be as positive as you can

Think of optimism as something to be sown and harvested. No matter how bad a situation is, true success is being able to find an opportunity when it seems like nothing good can come of it. Failure is a blessing, because you can learn and grow from it. If life doesn’t give you what you want right now, that only means that there’s something better for you right around the corner.

9. Acknowledge the lesson you’ve learned from a bad situation

Life continuously gives you lessons – from the people you meet, to the things you encounter and the experiences you go through. Whether good or bad, you should always look for and acknowledge the lesson you have learned. Once you’ve done that, keep it in mind and apply it to better tackle a similar situation or experience in future.

10. Pay attention and enjoy your life as it happens

In life, the past has gone and no longer exists, whereas the future hasn’t arrived yet. If you think about it, the present is all you ever have. Everything you’ve ever done, everything you’ve ever been through, has led up to this present moment. Seeing as that present is all you ever have, you should try living your life accordingly!

11. Get rid of one thing a day for 30 days

De-cluttering is good for the soul. Try getting rid of one thing every day for 30 days, and you’ll feel a tangible internal change. It might not be easy letting go of things at first, but it’ll get better with practice. By getting rid of physical things you don’t need, you’re opening up room for newer, positive things – both physical and abstract – to come into your life.

12. Create something brand-new in 30 days or less

Fashioning something using your hands and your own ingenuity is undoubtedly one of the most rewarding things you can do in life. Use the next 30 days to create something of your choosing – just make sure that it’s something you actually care about so you don’t lose interest in it. Find something you love and let your imagination run wild.

13. Wake up 30 minutes earlier each morning

If you’re in a rush in the morning, you’re setting yourself up for a bad day, because you’ll be constantly chasing the time you’re trying to make up. Try getting up 30 minutes earlier, and save yourself speeding tickets, being late for work and other stresses you don’t need to be dealing with. Make a pact with yourself to do it for 30 days straight and see the difference that it makes.

14. Don’t tell a single lie in 30 days

We all tell little white lies, and naively think they’re harmless. The truth is that a lie is a lie, no matter how big or small. Avoid deceiving yourself and those around you, speak from the heart and speak the whole truth.

 

 

How You should Plan your Day …?

 

Did you know that according to Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM), our body has its own energy clock? Also known as the Chinese Body Clock, it explains some of the most asked questions about our body. For instance, you may be curious to discover why your mood and energy levels fluctuate so much throughout the day? And why you sometimes tend to be less concentrated on your work than in other instances?

Without a doubt, our bodies do extraordinary things, but they are all built around cycles, controlled by the brain and defined by our sleeping and eating patterns. At different times of the day, the body has one organ which is at its energetic peak, and by knowing your energy clock well, you can help your body cope better.

The chart below illustrates the human energy body clock, showing the best times to eat, work, sleep and socialize. According to TCM, the body moves its energy concentration from one organ to another every 2 hours (as the chart indicates) with the organ opposite each time slot (12 hours ahead) being the one with the least energetic functioning during that time.

For a more detailed overview, this is how the Chinese Body Clock works.

d6756150-90f9-4893-a5c3-3bdd142c857e

First of all, our body goes through 3 main cycles every day. These cycles are as follows:
1. Elimination Cycle (4am-12pm):

This is the time during which the body is getting rid of toxins – the reason behind the bad breath and sweaty skin we wake up with in the morning. During this period, it is recommended that we eat food that is easily digestible, such as raw produce, green juice, smoothies, etc.

2. Appropriation Cycle (12pm-8pm):

The body is most awake and active during this time of the day, and so is its digestion and metabolism. You may be feeling more hungry than usual during this  time period. If so, it is important to eat, even if it’s not during meal times.

3. Assimilation Cycle (8pm-4am):

At this time, the body is concentrating on the absorption of nutrients in order to revitalize cells and organs. It’s the perfect time for healing,rebuilding and renewing, and it’s recommended that dinner is taken right before this cycle.

As you have seen in the Human Body Energy Clock chart above, these cycles can be broken down even further, focusing more on the activity peaks of specific body organs.

Here’s what’s happening in every section of the clock and how you can help your body in the process.

• Between 3am and 5am:
While you are in a deep sleep, your body is focusing on the lungs and breathing, to make sure enough oxygen is filling your lungs, and entering your blood and nervous system. If you cough during this time, it probably means that your lungs are getting rid of toxins.
• Between 5am and 7am:
You are now in your elimination cycle, and your body is preparing thelarge intestine to eliminate toxins as soon as you wake up. If you’re up at this time, it is recommended that you drink 16+ oz of water to replace the lost liquid. At this point, opt for a brisk walk over sitting down while drinking a cup of coffee!

Between 7am and 9am:
Now, the energy focus moves to the stomach. You are likely to rise with a good appetite, after a long period of fasting throughout the night. Wake up and eat breakfast – make sure it contains fruit and protein to fill you with the nutrients you need to face the day.
• Between 9am and 11am:
After the stomach, come the pancreas and the spleen. During this time, these organs are processing your breakfast and converting it into energy. This energy becomes the fuel your cells need for your new day ahead.
• Between 11am and 1pm:
By now, the nutrients in your breakfast are being pumped around the body by the heart, and reaching out to all your body systems and organs through the circulatory system. Now is the right time to be with people and prepare yourself for another dose of nutrients, as energy levels start to decrease.

Between 1pm and 3pm:
The perfect time to eat lunch.  After doing this, many people feel the need to take a nap to boost their energy for the rest of the day and take a break from the morning activities. Furthermore, your body is now working on the digestion of your lunch, focusing on the small intestine. This is also an ideal time for some peaceful meditation.
• Between 3pm and 5pm:
The focus now shifts to the bladder. At this time, it is recommended that you stay hydrated by drinking water or tea. It is also an excellent time to get some things done for the last time before your body prepares you for the evening.

• Between 5pm and 7pm:
Its time for the last main meal of the day – dinner. This shouldn’t be very big, but should be nutritious. Your body is concentrating on thekidneys now, to filter the body of any waste. It is also working on the lymphatic system to keep the body clear and in flow. Doing some physical movement would be a good idea – consider walking or stretching.

• Between 7pm and 9pm:
At this point of the day, your blood pressure is typically at its highest levels, and your body’s focus now shifts to the pericardium. The day is nearing its end, and it’s suitable to take this time to wind down and relax. One’s libido has very often reached its peak by now, so the engagement in intercourse is ideal at this time.
• Between 9pm and 11pm:
Your body is now focusing on the triple warmer and the endocrine system. At this time, you are least expected, or recommended, to eat. Preferably, one should continue to relax, while the body is working on its equilibrium and the replacements of enzymes used throughout the day. It’s also the ideal and easiest time to go to sleep.

• Between 11pm and 1am:
While you are sleeping, your body is focusing on the gallbladder. If you suffer from gallstones, then you might experience some pain during this time.
• Between 1am and 3am:
The liver is now at work. Your body is detoxifying itself by processing alcohol, chemicals, drugs, and poor diet, and eliminating the unwanted substances, cleansing your blood as a result.

Joke of the Day…” You people have a penchant for doing things wrong …” !!!

 

An American soldier, serving in World War II, had just returned from several weeks of intense action on the German front lines.

 

 He had finally been granted R&R and was on a train bound for London. The train was very crowded, so the soldier walked the length of the train, looking for an empty seat.

 The only unoccupied seat was directly adjacent to a well-dressed middle-aged lady and was being used by her little dog.

The war weary soldier asked, “Please, ma’am, may I sit in that seat?”

The English woman looked down her nose at the soldier, sniffed and said, “You Americans. You are such a rude class of people. Can’t you see my little Fifi is using that seat?”

The soldier walked away, determined to find a place to rest, but after another trip down to the end of the train, found himself again facing the woman with the dog.

Again he asked, “Please, lady. May I sit there? I’m very tired.”

The English woman wrinkled her nose and snorted, “You Americans! Not only are you rude, you are also arrogant. Imagine!”

The soldier didn’t say anything else; he leaned over, picked up the little dog, tossed it out the window of the train and sat down in the empty seat.

The woman shrieked and railed, and demanded that someone defend her and chastise the soldier.

An English gentleman sitting across the aisle spoke up, “You know, sir, you Americans do seem to have a penchant for doing the wrong thing. You eat holding the fork in the wrong hand. You drive your cars on the wrong side of the road. And now, sir, you’ve thrown the wrong bitch out the window.”

வாரம் ஒரு கவிதை….” எப்படி மறப்பேன் …” ?

Brother-Anslem

எப்படி மறப்பேன் ?
………………
அன்பும்  அறிவும் பண்புடன் பாசமும்
 ஒன்றுக்கு  ஒன்று குறையாமல்
 என்றும் உன் மாணவன்   வாழ்வில் இருக்க
 அன்றே வழி காட்டிய ஆசான்  அய்யா  நீ !
 எப்படி மறப்பேன் நீ காட்டிய வழியை நான் ?
 பள்ளி கணக்கில் கூட்டலும் கழித்தலும் உண்டு
 ஆனால் நன்னெறி வாழ்க்கைக்   கணக்கில் கூட்டலும்
  பெருக்கலும்  மட்டுமே என்று   சொன்னவன் அய்யா நீ !
 உன் மாணவன் நான் …இன்றும் உன் மாணவன்தான் !
 எப்படி  மறப்பேன்  உன் பாடத்தை  நான் ?
 தமிழ் செய்யுள் பாடம் படிக்கும் நேரம்  …செய்ய முடியும்
 செய்யுள் ஒன்று உன்னாலும்  என்று சொல்லி நாலடி
 கவிதை பல என்னை எழுத வைத்து நீயும் நல்ல கவிஞன் ஆவாய்
 ஒருநாள் என்று நீ சொன்ன சமயம் விண்ணில் பறந்தேனே  நான் !
 எப்படி  மறப்பேன் உன்னை  நான் இன்று ?
 தினம் ஒரு திருக்குறள் கரும்பலகையில் எழுதி வாழ்க்கையின்
 நியதி என்னவென்று  உன் மாணவர்கள் மனதில் பதிய வைத்த
 ஒரு நல்ல ஆசிரியர்  நீ …இன்றும்  அதுவே என் வாழ்வின் மந்திரம் !
 எப்படி மறப்பேன் நான் என் வாழ்வை சிறக்க வைத்த உன்னை ?
