Getting Older !?!?!

Today, Sept 27th, one of the days in a year that I never forget. Those who know me well know why. My B'day.

Though I got the blessing of my mom late yesterday, Hema was the first person to wish me today as expected. She is at her Mom's place taking care of our new love, Krithik.

Krithik's arrival into our life changed a lot in both of us. We are enjoying each and every moment of his babyhood. This make us feel younger every day. Passing age is not worrying us....;)

Where it all begins...

How many of us have the courage to accept our mistakes, no matter how small the mistake is? Most of us won't.

When did we get behaving this way? Who taught us this bad habit? Did they do it wantedly?

A Small Incident that happened in my life.

The hospital were my wife delivered our first baby, was painted in leu with the Doctor Son's Marriage. My Nephew, who is 4 year old, touched a window which was freshly painted. He understood that he did a mistake and was afraid. So, he came calm and sat near my mom. When the painter came, I asked him to confess. But people around us were telling his not to tell that to the painter. So, he kept quiet.

I looks like fun event, but in-fact it has a serious impact on my nephew's life. In future he would definitely not accept the mistake that he might have commit. He was not encouraged to do a wise thing. We taught him a wrong lesson.

A child is learning/observing something in his life everyday when it was young. Let us teach them wise thing and make them a real asset for the nation.

The Long wait comes to a happy end

It was long time back I wrote my last blog but not without a reason. My wife delivered our first baby boy on 09th of August.

Though the expected delivery date was August 17, the doctor confirmed that there is no posibility of normal delivery because of the wrong position of the baby inside.It would be a mental presure for all, Hema in particular, to wait for such a long time knowing that she is going to be operated. We decided to operate and deliver the baby at the earliest.

August 09th was the date decided for the operation. Hema was admitted on 08th evening to prepare herself. Earlier we both decided not to know the sex of the baby in advance, otherwise there is no much excitement in waiting.

It was about 10:25 in the morning when she was taken to the operation theatre. The anxious wait was for about 20 mins. At exactly about 10:48, we heared the sweat voice of our baby. Five mins later a nurse came out of the room and told us that it was a baby boy and went back in. I wanted to know how was hema doing but no one was there to tell me that. I left the crowd and cried. I was not able to control my emotion. She was unconsious when I saw her after the operation.

The 9 month long wait looks shorter than the 20 mins in front of the operation room.

Ads made easy....

If you think news papers, brouchers, ad flims are the ways to advertise your books and movies or any other products for that matter, then you might need to upgrade yourself....

How many of you know that you don't even need to invest any money for these advertisement?

It just need to take a controversial topics to discuss or analysis in your books/movies. The news media will take care of the publicity. Here are the real time examples.

1) "A Call for Honor" is one of the top 10 best sellers. The controversial topics discussed on this book and the coverage by the news media made it all for the publicity.

2) The Indian launch of "Indian Summer" by John Wright is scheduled for October. But the publishers are expecting a big sales.

3) The sales of the edit verison of "Da Vinci Code" is raised in recent times because of the controversies that it created in the movie verison. Also, the movie was a box office hit.

4) The sales of the edit verison of "Othello" is raising in recent times because of the Hindi movie "Omkara". The story of Othello was the base for Omkara.

You just need to sit and think out of box to attract the news media. Just simple. Isn't it?

Do you read the message right?

People here used to blame the quality of Tamil Movies. General complaints that they used to make are, they are more glamour oriented, sentimental, violence, no message to the society, misleading youths and etc...

Ironically, no-one bothers to appreciate a good movies. To name few of the quality, message oriented movies in the recent times

Indian
Gentleman
Ramana
Samurai
Anniyan
Muthalvan
....

All these movies suggest changes to the society to bring out the humanitarian in each of us. All these movies were big hit at box-office, still there is no big change in the society.

The messages are conveyed correctly, but the individuals are not ready to accept it because they don't want to change themself and/or the society.

Can the producers/directors be happy for the money that they earn in making such movies? Or should they worry about not passing the message correctly that the movies intended to? The first one gives the status in society and the second gives the satisfaction in one's self.

The real success of these movies depend on how many people read the message correctly. Even if it is one, that is a success. To me, if anyone changed their mind on reading this blog, it was a success to me.

After seeing Anniyan, I stopped violating traffic rules and small small mistake that I used to. If I can, why can't you?
