Ravanan review....

I just watched Ravanan last Wednesday at BIG Cinemas Teluk Intan. To be honest, the movie is very well-taken. Mani Ratnam had done his magic yet again. The story is pretty much straight forward, no nonsense. It is adapted, with a twist from the "Ashokavanam" chapter of a famous Indian epic, Ramayana where the evil king Ravanan abducts Sita , Ram's wife and brought her to his palace in Lanka. According to the epic, Ram was the crown prince of Ayodhya kingdom and both Ram and Sita were sent to the forest for 14 years.

There is no need to say about music as the Mozart of Chennai has done it again. yup, A.R.Rahman has belted in 6 songs which you can listen to them over and over again.

The cinematography is superb ,especially the scene of Ragini falling down off a cliff is very realistic. Hats off to Santosh Sivan. Even the casts did the stunts on their own. However, the dialogue is a let down , a minor scar of a highly entertaining movie.

In fact, the director triggered us with the question ,

Is there a Ram in Ravanan or is there a Ravanan in every one of us ?

I gave it a thought , in fact the question had an ambiguous answer. According to Sigmund Freud's "Iceberg Theory", a human being has three level of psychological....namely Id, Ego and Superego. Id is the "inner devil" of us where it is purely based on instincts, mostly are negative attitudes such as lust, greed, gluttony, evil and so on.

Superego is the goody behaviour of ourselves, which is abide to moral values , ethics, rules and norm of the public. It is based on our thoughts.

So, by referring to the model of the iceberg, superego is the part which is visible to the water surface while Id is the unseen part and lied deep underwater.

Thus, to answer the question, I would say, there is evil lurking in every one of us and there is some goodness in an evil person as that person is also a human being. It depends to Ego to put our personality up in a balance.

In a nutshell, it is these three elements, Id, Ego and Superego which in turn creates the unpredictable nature of man........

Movie Rating : 4.75 / 5 .....worth your money buying the ticket for this movie...

VTV postponed to 26th feb....

due to unavoidable circumstances, Vinnaithaandi Vaaruvaya has been postponed to 26th feb,,,which suits perfectly for me cos it will be on Friday and it's a public holiday....

3 days to go.... Hosanna....

Vellai Pookal....

I just heard a beautiful song sung and composed by A.R.Rahman....beautiful not only on the music but also the lyrics....Listening this song in a quiet environment and also during a rainy day will make u feel like flying...I have also included the lyrics with English translation so that everyone can treasure the beauty of the lyrics....enjoy.... :-)

P/s The song is more like a prayer for world peace....

Pallavi
--------
Vellai pookkal ulagam engum malargavey!

(Let white flowers bloom all around earth,)
Vidiyum bhoomi amaithikkaga vidigavey!

(Wakening world arise for peace,)
Manmael manjal velichcham vizhugavey!

(Amber light suffuse the morning dust, )

Malarey soambal muriththu ezhugavey!

(And flowers stretch from the arms of slumber. )

Kuzhandhai vizhikkattumae, thaayin kadhakadhappil

( Let the child wake up from the mother's morning cuddle,)
Ulagam vidiyattumey, Pillayin siru mudhal sirippil...

(And let the whole world awaken to the child's first sleepy smile of the morning.)

Charanam-1
-----------
Kaatrin paerisayum,

Mazhai paadum paadalgalum,

(The great music of winds, and songs that rain sings,)

Oru mounam, poal inbam, tharumo?

(Can it bring forth happiness as does a moment of silence? )

Kodi keerthanamum
Kavi koartha vaarthaigalum,

(Billions of melodies and sweet words of the poet, )

Thuli kanneer, poal artham, tharumo?

(Can it convey the meaning as a drop of tear does?)

(Repeat Pallavi)

Charanam - 2
-------------
Engu siru kuzhandhai,
Than kaigal neettidumo,

Angu thoandraayo, Kollai, nilavey!

(Where a small child holds out her hand - Ask a thousand moons to appear!)

Engu manidha inam,
Poar oindhu saaindhidumo,
Angu koovaayo, vellai, kuyile!

(Where a war-worn humanity tired rests - Ask the white Indian cuckoo to sing! )

(Repeat Pallavi)

Hosanna...

Finally the wait for the audios for the movie Vinnaithaandi Varuvaaya (VTV in short) or "Would You Cross the Skies for Me" is over....Audios was being released officially on 12th of this month...

The bumper combination of Gautham Menon (director) and double Oscar winner A.R. Rahman (music director) plus Simbhu and Trisha as the leading casts promises to be Valentine's Day sell-out. The Mozart of Chennai has produced 6 beautiful tracks for this movie...which my ears won't go weary hearing these songs repeatedly. All the songs were nice but my personal favourite was the song , Hosanna. If you google this word, it will say it is a word of praise in Christianity and Judaism. But, however in the context of this movie, the word is recited as joy of falling in love. This is the lyric for the song... enjoy....

P/s Pls give your support by buying Original CD's...can't wait for the movie's release on Feb 12...

Hosanna

It's not enough to say that we're made for each other
It's love that is Hosanna true
Hosanna, be there when you call me out i'll be there
Hosanna, feeling like my whole life has changed
I never wanna be the same,
It's time we rearrange,
I take a step, you take a step,

Ponggal Valzhtukkal

Tomorrow on January 14th, Indians worldwide will be celebrating Ponggal. Boiling rice until it spills out of the claypot is a norm in this festival . This is to symbolize the longevity of prosperity. Pongal is basically a harvest festival , to mark an end to a traditional farming season in mainland India. Pongal also marks the start of the northwards movement of the Sun for the remaining six months. Traditionally, Ponggal is celebrated in 4 days, 1st day is called Boghi where people will throw off unwanted , old products and changed them with new products , symbolising the new spirit in life. 2nd day is Thaiponggal itself, 1st day of the Thai month , 3rd day is called Maatu Ponggal and the 4th day is Kannum Ponggal. For more info on this festival, click What is Pongal ?

Last but not least, I would like to wish all my Indian friends Happy Ponggal.

En Iniya Ponggal Valzhtukkal . Ponggalo Ponggal !!!!

Happy New Year 2010...

As I an typing this post, 37 final minutes of 2009 remains and it keeps on ticking away...

This is my last post of 2009.

When we hear about the New Year Countdown, the poem "Auld Lang Syne" comes to mind....and it does rhyme..syne and mind...Hehe..

Anyway, I have decided with you all the origin of this New Year classic.

It happens to be that "Auld Lang Syne" origins from a Scottish poem penned by Robert Burns in 1788, being sung to the tune of Roud 6294...

Auld Lang Syne in English are "Old Long Since" and ever since has been sung in the countdown to New Year in most of the English speaking countries...and has many versions...

These are the lyrics...HAPPY NEW YEAR 2010 guys !!!!!

Should old acquaintance be forgot,
and never brought to mind ?
Should old acquaintance be forgot,
and old lang syne ?

CHORUS:
For auld lang syne, my dear,
for auld lang syne,
we'll take a cup of kindness yet,
for auld lang syne.
And surely you'll buy your pint cup !
and surely I'll buy mine !
And we'll take a cup o' kindness yet,
for auld lang syne.

CHORUS
We two have run about the slopes,
and picked the daisies fine ;
But we've wandered many a weary foot,
since auld lang syne.

CHORUS
We two have paddled in the stream,
from morning sun till dine† ;
But seas between us broad have roared
since auld lang syne.

CHORUS
And there's a hand my trusty friend !
And give us a hand o' thine !
And we'll take a right good-will draught,
for auld lang syne.

holidays are here again...

For the umpteenth time I 've been saying this but yet again I'm posting in this blog after a long hiatus...(told ya I'm sucks when it comes to commitment)...anyways I'm gonna type watever crosses my mind 2day...

of course holiday mood is conquering me all over...90 days of pure relaxations awaits...but I have to admit it was quite a rocky 1o months.

I admit I can't make everyone like me for what I am..so I pray to God everyday for strength to pass thru each day...and stick to a principle that yesterday is a history, tommorow is a mystery but today is a gift, thus called present...kinda catchy but true..

I also noticed frm my one of my friend who likes to listen to Reggae songs a lot..and as an effect he is calm and composed in nature ...complete opposite to me...emotional and short-tempered....

perhaps there is a link between music and affective after all....

in fact I'm at Starbucks rite nw and they r playing reggae music...and i felt relaxed...da feeling i havent felt in quite a some time...

So perhaps i should give a Reggae music a green light...

Anyway, just killing the time as my bus is due 2nite..

Holidays is a time for self-relfection...

Happy Holidays folks !!!

Whole Again...

This rare gem of a song was sung by a local band called Edge of Fire....unfortunately the band soon disbanded...therefore it;s hard to find their songs especially this one...the lyrics are beautiful..great voice by the frontman and the guitarist is good.... these are the lyrics and the download link for the song...hear it for urself...

I will love u till the day I die
I would tell u how much I'll need u everyday
for my life long to love some one like u
with a heart silhouetted the perfect passion

* I would try to be a better lover
I don't care if I lose my all
cause it's u I've been dreamin' for this life time
so here's my heart ,waitin' for u to take it baby

** come & take my heart tonite
cause it's u I've been waitin' for all the while
come & take my heart tonite
make me whole again

I see clouds filling up the moon
& the greens turnin' into blue & faded
I would say things were wrong & now I'm missin' u
I will have to make amends cause it'll be till the end

do u think I would stop for what I've been leavin' out these nights
girl I've been cravin' u'd be mine all mine
u are all that have made my life, I won't let u down this time
baby I want u back here in my life forever ...

Confused and disturbed....

I'm feeling so confused and disturbed....for the first time in 3 years I doubted why did I joined this teaching course....well the doubt had always been there ever since day 1...but today it seems that the doubt has mounted to an all-time high....it was an oral presentation....i got the points but my pronunciations brought me down...others speak clearly and fluently...even the lecturer noticed it and pin-point it...it was then i doubted my teaching abilities...cos we r talking about a career where the teacher's voice is the "insurance" of the career....and with bad pronunciations, my teaching career is pretty much DOOMED..

Therefore i am now divided whether to pursue my teaching career or to quit this course for good...

Oh God..Help Me !!!

Music Crossovers….

 

Hi , it;s been a while since i last posted on my blog…

Perhaps i'm sucks when it’s comes to commitment…towards blog + work + romance + etc..      :-P

Anyway, today’s post will be about musical crossovers….

Lately western music tends to follow Asian music (both oriental and Indian)…this has become more obvious since Slumdog-fever hits the cinemas..

Take the song “turntables” by Ciara ft. Chris Brown…d intro of d song similar to the intro of an A.R Rahman song in a Hindi movie called Bombay…I was shocked to hear it at first…

then, the asian mainstream music has started to “mingle” with the western hip-hop…

Take our very own Yogi B and Natchatira for example…they have briliantly blended Indian music and hip-hop…and created a all-new genre –> Tamil Hip-Hop…

then there’s a assimilation of western pop into asian music and also among Asian music genres

There are many more examples but i cant type it all here…This shows that the world has become borderless and diversity in music… MUSIC FOR LIFE !!!

These are the download link for two songs…hear it for urself… (link coming soon)…

holidays over...

Approximately in 18 hours time , i will be taking my long, long , LONGGGG bus trip back to JB...

Yup,,holidays over and once I'm back, I will be in my hectic mood to finish SBE assignments and also courseworks for some subjects....

For sure there will be many nights of burning the midnight candle to get the job done on time...

but the rough times is not for long as on 19 Sept. there will be another 1 week holidays for Hari Raya Aidilfitri...talking bout Hari Raya, I must buy the ticket for the return trip to Tapah a.s.a.p or else there wont be any tickets left...

So, IPGM...here I come....back to the hectic life of a trainee teeacher...

The End Of SBE...

Today is the last day of my SBE...

and the last ever as there won't be any next year as I will be doing my practicum next year at JB for one month....

today also was the first time that I entered a classroom...taught Fractions Year 3...i think they inderstand what I teach .. hopefully...

however glad it's over...cant wait for my 1 week bonafide holiday experience...i can wake up late...i can watch t.v. whole day...

holidays here i come...

back again...

Hi..I'm back again.. after a month hiatus....many things have happened...the massive outbreak of H1N1...especially in J.B. where there are many deaths occured...but in the centre of this melee...our institute had proven to be a safe haven for all its students as to date there are no H1N1 cases...although there are a few close scare that H1N1 eventually sneaked into the institute due to the influx of students to the clinic...perhaps it's the flu season and the outbreak of H1N1 has further caused a stir among the general public...but there's a party who benefit frm this...guess who....THE FACIAL MASK company of course...recent newspaper shows that sales of the masks rocketed to a new high thanks to the buzz caused by H1N1...nw dats wat i called easy money...KA-CHING !!!

then there there is an e-mail circulating that fruits and milk can help to reduce the effects of the swine flu...maybe it might be true..well, if it is, that's a revelation..but if that's not perhaps it's another DESPERATE propaganda to promote local fruits...

let just hope the swine flu outbreak could be contained as soon as possible...so normal activities can be resumed without fear...

The deadly virus , H1N1

Fatty Koo...

I just remembered some of the songs that I used to hear while I'm chillin' out on the days towards SPM '05...

during that time, names such as Papa Roach, Fort Minor were famous...but one particular name caught my mind....

FATTY KOO...

I wonder wat type of name is dat ? Soon I found out, they are hip-hop sextet (3 guys and 3 ladies)..n their song was named "Bounce"... the rythm of the song are nice and all of the members are talented, able to play violin, sax...Unfortunately, the group was disbanded in late 2006 due to low collection of their album "The House of Fatty Koo" or perhaps the name Fatty Koo is a bad name for a hip-hop group...

Lord Tanamo - I'm in the Mood for Love...

This is a reggae song by a legendary ska performer named Lord Tanamo... the lyrics are simple yet meaningful...This song has many versions but the actual first version was written in 1932. Yet, this version is my favourite...

Lord Tanamo - I'm In the Mood for Love

I´m in the mood for love

Simply because you're near me
Funny but when you're near me
I'm in the mood for love

Heaven is in your eyes
Bright as the stars we're under
oh is it any wonder
I'm in the mood for love

why stop to think that whether
each little dream I pray
we'll put our hearts together
now we are one, I'm not afraid

if there's a cloud above
if it should rain well let it
over tonight forget it
I'm in the mood for love
