AADINA.....


After long time, I went to Film Theater to watch a Kannada movie. It was only because of my friend who wanted to watch this particular movie called AADINAGALU. I had read the review of this movie and felt this movie must be different compared to other commercial movies. I, T and P decided to watch this movie on Sunday afternoon in movie theater Triveni.We reached majestic at around 1:15 PM and when we 3 were walking in majestic area towards the movie hall I could see lot of Kannada movies running house full and we saw huge crowds in front of all movie halls. Kannada movies are doing well now a days.

We took the tickets for AADINA…… and entered the full house hall with tickets, the movie started in no time with just 2 ads. The movie starts off with hero and heroin shooting each others and then they take back seat leaving the 1980’s Karnataka rowdies in fore front.I learnt lot of things about under-world of Karnataka through this movie and it tells who were very prominent during 1970’s and 1980’s.

The director has put lot of effort to show the 1980’s peaceful Bangalore when compared to today. During those times there was no traffic and one hardly saw crowded places. The story mainly concentrates on 2 parts, one the love story of hero and the heroin and the other on two rowdy gangs who fight tooth and nail for supremacy.

I felt love story was just added in the movie to make audience relax between the intense gang war of rowdies. Director clearly shows how under-world seed was sowed in peaceful state of Karnataka; off course he also shows the human touch of rowdies during those days.

I recommend people to watch this movie only if you are interested in seeing offbeat cinemas.

Happy New Year

I wish all my blog readers a very Happy New Year, Let the year 2007 bring in all the success and happiness to you all. This year I felt the New Year celebration in Bangalore was more colorful and I could see more people on streets compared to last year. I received many SMS, with messages saying that the network will be jammed on 31st December. But in fact our service providers were all set for more traffic for 31st December. They could manage it. I guess Airtel, BSNL, HTUCH, Spice, Reliance, TATA & other mobile/Telephone service providers made good money on this New Year occasion. It is estimated around 1 Billion rupees!!!. This reminds me the Hutchison-Essar deal; it is estimated to be around 17 to 18 billion dollars. So if you make right calculations, 10 such New Year occasions will make the company go past break even and make more profits.

India needs Revolution.

Have you ever renovated your house while staying in it. Believe me it is a mess. In early 90s, my father was did a small renovation of our house and we stayed in the house while extending a part of kitchen, bathroom and dining hall. I was not comfortable during those 30 days of renovation. There was no privacy coz, workers were every where doing the job. The entire place was full of dust. The small tiny particles of sand and cement were there in all the places. My mom used to clean the house all day long to keep it clean. Once the renovation completed, there was sense of relief and I particularly was happy because of no dust. I am telling you this story because this exactly fits the current Indian system. Be it the Nair Radia tapes, Telecom Scandal, common wealth scandal,political parties, etc. By seeing India from a distance, as i am currently outside India, i feel India is still in process of renovation, there is corruption every where. Everybody know all political parties and bure...

Current Trends

How it all started In the year 2000, Y2K created fear among many companies. Lots of companies had to spend millions of dollars to correct this issue. IBM which created this code did not provide any root cause solution. But asked companies and clients to fix the code at the application level. And at the same time internet was a new phenomenon with lots of people wanting to have a web page on the Internet. But since the internet was still in its infancy, it could not provide any monetary returns. So there was a dot com collapse. When this was happening in the year 2001, 9/11 happened and shocked the entire world and all the markets collapsed.   Later, then the US government wanted to send a message to other countries, that the US market is very stable and incidents like this would not impact them. So radical approach was used to kick start the economy and also they went after the countries which were involved in attacks, which in turn required billions of dollars. But this inorga...
