About Me

My photo
Very difficult to describe about me. But I guess am simple person who has taken the path shown by life. Made best use of circumstances and chance. Never to blame fate or luck. Take life as it comes. But definitely give your best shot. I like music of Illayaraja, songs of SP Balasubramian, Kishore Kumar, Mohammed Rafi, PB Srinivasan to name a few. I believe in the Hindu Tradition and follow it very closely as practical.

It’s a matter of Choice; Chaos due to lack of Discipline or Order due to Discipline

Being a Bangalorean I always wonder why the chaos on the road or for that matter in any government offices or Public places. Below are two scenes’ which depict Choas due to lack of Discipline and Order due to forced Discipline.

Chaos due to lack of Discipline: On a Sunday morning I was going with my family to my cousin’s house in Banashankari (About 20kms from my home). We had crossed the signal near Lido and heading towards the Richmond circle. I stopped near the football stadium seeing the signal turning RED. Being a Sunday the road was sparse with traffic and for a change it was good to drive in Bangalore. My eyes were on the rearview & side view mirrors cautiously looking for vehicles coming from behind & the sides. I just noticed a government official car speeding from my left showing scant respect to the RED signal. The other road had a green signal but luckily there weren’t any vehicles from that side. Few other car’s who had stopped at the RED signal followed suit. Suddenly the vehicles poured in from other road which had the right of way, there was absolutely chaos. By this time my signal had turned green but I couldn’t proceed because of the Chaos.


Order due to Discipline: The Valampuri Ganesha temple near my residence organizes different type of Yagna every year starting from the Ganesha Chaturthi day. As a practice this year also the Yagna was arranged by the temple administration. Navagraha Yagna was arranged on Saturday 22nd by the temple administration following which Lunch would be served to devotees who have participated in the Yagna. The Yagna started at 10.00am and went on till 12.30pm; the temple authority had done a commendable job in organizing the Yagna. The devotees were disciplined till this point.
To mark the completion of the Yagna the devotees where to offer their prayers in what is called the “Poornahuti”. The temple administration made an announcement to the effect that once their name is called they should come forward offer their prayers (“Poornahuti”) and then proceed to Lunch. Chaos erupted immediately with the devotees thronging the Yagna area to offer the Prayers; repeated plea did not suffice. Finally the “Poornahuti” offering by the devotees and the entry to Lunch arena was stopped for 20minutes. All the devotees where forced to go back to their seating and discipline was forced. The entire prayer offering got completed in 10minutes while the chaos and in discipline wasted time.

It’s time each of us introspect and follow Discipline at all times to ensure there is no wastage of time. Lack of Infrastructure could be one of the problem while lack of Discipline is the core of the problem.

Mozhii ..Language..

It was amazing movie that spiced up my Sunday noon, as I watched the movie titled "Mozhi". Wow a good movie with lot of sense & reality gone in. Jyothika has dazzled in the role of Archana. Sometimes I wonder why such movies don't make it a big success unlike the ones of type "Shivaji" etc.

This was a movie with total sense made of hollywood quality, spiced up with Indian touch. The way PrithiviRaj made the deaf & dum girl understand music was nice & creative. Mozhi had all the essence of a successful movie comedy, romance, music & picturization.

The sudden twist to the story when Prakash Raj feels love on seeing Swarna Malya & then way he express his love, explains the practical approach. Bought reality closer, you interact with someone & suddenly oneday you feel yes this is the love & without much thought you express it!!

Yes Mozhi is a story of 4 friends Jyothi as the dum & deaf girl, Swarna malya as her colleague; while the male cast is led by PrithiviRaj & PrakashRaj who are supposed to be muscians.

Final word I feel Mozhi is a must see movie..
