Inter-"movie" marriage...


Thats Boy 1 about his younger brother @ 6 yrs.
Boy 1 - "mamma..you know what...he wants to go to Bangalore when he growns up" (pointing at Boy 2)

Mommie - "yeah..u can..for studies. When you grow big..you can go"

Boy 1 - "Mammaa !!! its not for studies !!! Avan adichu polikaana pokunnae (he wants to have josh/masti !) ..... and ..he wants to meet Divya too !

thats her.... Ms. Divya
 
Boy 2 - smiles...shy .

Boy 1 to Boy 2 - but eda...she is already married. And you know whom ? She married Arun chettan!!!!

him !
 

Well..i know it wouldnt make much sense to the non-keralite readers...but keralites, will definitely know whats cooking.

Divya, is the name of the character played by Nazriya in the movie Bangalore Days (the most "IN" with my boys as of now)


 
and meet Mr.Arun, the character by Fahad Fazil in the movie
Diamond Necklace.

 


Doing the role of a young oncologist in Dubai who is out to enjoy life to the fullest, even if it means emptying his pockets to pay over-eager banks in order to finance a lavish trendy lifestyle. He shares an apartment with his friend in Burj Khalifa, "regularly changes his cars "and lives on the numerous credit cards that adorn his wallet.
 
Now.."regularly changing cars".!! .thats what got my boys attention.
In reality (in the movie, i mean) the cars that he travel in get confiscated every now and then by the police for not paying its debts, but this cool headed freaqy doc ends up with an even posher car the next day.
 
 

 
      Now is it that awesome ! (think in lines of 8,6 and 4 year old..boys)
 

 He was their BIG time fan, from then on.
This was from about a year ago.
 
Then came along...Lady Divya.
 

 
 ..their HEROINE, for the time being.
 
(and they (count the mommie "in" too ;) love this song...Thudakkam Maangalyam..njoy!! )
 
so, when their HERO and HEROINE tie the wedding knots...in real life ! it was one big affair for them.

 
God bless this newly wedded couple.

oops... ;)

Haah..ya...Naah. Yes..No..Concept in LOVE.

As far a bollywood music is concerned, got to admit.... I am still stuck with Aashiqui 2.
 
Tum Hi hoo…..Sun Raha Hai Naa Thuu…..and this!  Tu hi ye mujh ko bataa de....Chaahoon main yaa naa.
 
I can go on and on…and  my husband now is literally bugged up listening to the same songsblaring over and over from the kitchen. Poor him....certain things, in his wifie...just wouldn't change ;)
 
 
 
Tu hi ye mujh ko bataa de
Chaahoon main yaa naa
Apne tu dil ka pataa de
Chaahoon main yaa naa

You only tell me,
should I love or not,
Tell me about your heart,
Should I love or not..

Itna bata doon tujh ko
Chaahat pe apni mujh ko
Yoon to nahi ikhtiyaar
Phir bhi yeh sochaa dil ne
Ab jo lagaa hoon milne
Poochhoon tujhe ek baar

I'll tell you so much,
On my love,
I don't have so much control,
Still the heart thought once,
Now that I've begun to meet,
I should ask you once..
.........
............
 
The YES/NO in Love. Leaving it entirely up to the other person to decide.
Alright, its very “man”-ly for HIM to hold HER hand and take her over..saying ”come! let’s go”.
But…feel, at one point, she can always pull herself back. He never asked if she wanted it, at the very first place.  
Yaa…Naaa ??? Yes…No ???? 
You give your hand..but..its up to the other to hold or not to hold. But once they too…then hold it tight, and never let go. Coz, it was given to you, and not  taken by You. You Hold Tight.
 
 
Tu hi ye mujh ko bataa de
Chaahoon main yaa naa
Apne tu dil ka pataa de
Chaahoon main yaa naa

You only tell me,
should I love or not,
Tell me about your heart,
Should I love or not..
After all..thats what the King of Romance does.
He just shows open his palm for the heroine .  Its her call. Haa …yeah Naaa .  

 
Happy Valentine's Day in advance ! <3 <3

And who am I ??? ....."You, ARE the STAR !!! "



The kids dinner was done..but the dishes still stayed in the kitchen sink and the night cleaning was pending.

 
 
But..did wonder..am I the only person who could stay glued to the TV screen, watching the climax of the movie "The Truman Show" exactly like the audience featured in it.
 

 
Dont remember the number of times I have watched it...yeaars back...but 2 days before, had it shown on MBC , and was like..."aah, its ages since i saw it last.."
 
The Truman Show is a 1998 American satirical social science fiction film directed by Peter Weir and written by Andrew Niccol. with Jim Carrey as Truman Burbank, The film chronicles the life of a man who is initially unaware that he is living in a constructed reality television show, broadcast around the clock to billions of people across the globe.
Truman becomes suspicious of his perceived reality and embarks on a quest to discover the truth about his life.

 
Ed Harris, as the Creator of Trueman's life....the Trueman Show


  wonder...kinda similar ? Two Master minds behind a BIGGG team. Late. Mr. Steve Jobs.

 


But apparently..there does exist in reality, what is called the "Truman Show Delusion."

Sufferers think they are secretly being filmed and that everyone in their lives are actors; much like the events in film. Psychiatrists coined the term "Truman Show Delusion" back in 2008 and have documented 5 cases of this strange mental disorder, with several other cases making news around the world.
 

But anyways...after the curious wait...
 
 
 
 .....he did turn around.......

 
 

the moment that does bring in a smile to your face...
 
 
and...ofcourse, the evergreen dialogue...
 
"In case I don't see ya...
goodafternoon...
good evening...
and..
good night !!! "

W.O.R.D.S - you need them....you don't need them

well..there was a time when my entire world revolved around just one thing -
M U S I C.
 
Eat music..sleep music..study music .
 
We had and still have have at home this really old tape recorder that my father had brought while he was a teenager, prroudly saying that he was the first person to buy a music player then at his time, amongst his friends. A time when National and Panasonic was one single entity.
(just managed to find a picture from google exactly similar as what we still have at home. its an antique piece by now!)
 
The first thing i do entering my room once back from school was to on the tape - recorder and it could go on and on even while i fall sleep late at night. And...one of my all time favourites was this lovely slow number "WORDS"..by Boyzone. My brother was to hard rock while me was to these cute boybands - Boyzone, Westlife.....and girlbands too - Spice girls....so so.... which he used to mock as "baby-bands"."
 
I specifically liked that song coz that was a personal excuse kind for me, saying you have to be speaking and speaking to express yourself....you have to be soo full of WORDS. (for the big-mouthed girl that i was)..after all thats what the 5 handsome boys are singing.  
  


It was my first year of Engineering and the time when you are extra-cautious, writing the first lab assignment..coz, you want your record book to be super neat..with absolutely no rub marks and in the best of your handwriting. One mistake, and i used to tear off the entire page and rewrite it all over again.
 
 And again..it was the same song.."WORDS" by Boyzone that was being played and i was writing..believing that wow! my pages does look good.  
 
But..got the record book back after correction and there was this big circle and question mark in red.

It was my civil lab record and the first chapter was familiarization of various lab equipments and tools and what did i write ????

TAPE : A tape is a measuring device which is used to take your heart away !!!!!!! 



ooh noo !!!!

those who are familiar with the song will know exactly what has happened.

The tape in the book and the tape that was being played..just overlapped !!!

well..its better that at times, you just dont mix these two things together :)

She doesnt mix these two things anymore..she's all grown up (really !!!)..but certain things just wouldn't change. She still is a big mouth ;)

.......

think of all the "hours" of antics that Bollywood need to come up with...to express one single theme -

LOVE !


climb up and dance at the top most point of the cliff....


the piercing resonant music...(not all..i admit)

 
 boisterous dance sequences...(again..not all)

and of course, action, stunts..gunshooots...

God ! this one is just too much!

on the very very contrary..is this sweet  American 3D computer-animated comedy-adventure film - UP.

Up was released on May 29, 2009 and opened the 2009 Cannes Film Festival, becoming the first animated and 3D film to do so.[4] The film became a great financial success, accumulating over $731 million in its theatrical release. . The film received five Academy Award nominations, including Best Picture, making it the second animated film in history to receive such a nomination, following Beauty and the Beast


well..its not the financial victory of the movie that i am highlighting..rather...how the entire essence of "living in love..till death do us apart" has been soo beautifully....sooo beautifully depicted...
in just about

4 MINUTES !!!

and that too....in

UNSPOKEN WORDS !!!

......from the random-toothed, pranky, tomboy little girl ..to the young pretty bride who is seen doing carpentry works right in her bride's dress...to the lovely caring old lady.....

.....from the timid shy little boy to the grumpy old man....

that's Carl and Ellie.

one of the best love stories - all in

JUST 4 WORDLESS MINUTES.

watch the link below - esp from 2-6 mins. Its just too good. At the later scenes, we can even feel the tears in his eyes. Very well depicted.
 
 


thats one  gorgeous scene !!


But again…it’s a Hollywood number..you definitely can’t challenge them. After a particular stage, the 78 year old grump Carl does what even Rajnikanth wouldn’t consider giving a try – The tens of thousands of balloons that lifted his entire house up and beyond the continent…is ..now his backpack!!!  From one point of time…the balloons, his home, the big-fat little chap, are all tied to his shoulderswhile trecking through the wilderness ! Oh well….alright..no questions asked.
Kadhayil chodhyam ella!!!

but..at the end of the day..i have just one question to myself...

do i really need words to express myself ??
