Mamta Mohandas’s Kadha Thudarunnu

By |2017-08-26T02:07:58-05:00June 27th, 2010|Movie Review, talkies, Video|

"Kadha thudarunnu.." may not have the extreme intensity of Thalappavu, or the cunning intelligence and social commentary embedded in Paleri Manickam, or may be the breadth of emotions of a Kerala Cafe, but Kadha thudarunnu in the inimitable Sathyan style portrays the best within us and underlines the timeless creed that we, human beings, are essentially good.

This is a question thats been nagging the boys and yours truly for years. In a recent meetup in San Francisco, the standing (also sitting and sometimes lying down) committee on "Figuring out what the hell Mohanlal talks about in his movies" watched Mohanlal's Raavanaprabhu.

One of the saddest images I've seen. Full slide-show on NYTimes. And in tonight's report Colbert said "BP is a foreign company operating in our country. Which shed our blood, and [...]

Tharoor: One year since

By |2010-04-18T20:48:34-05:00April 18th, 2010|India, Kerala, Politics, Trivandrum|

It is more saddening to see that Tharoor is not exiting on his own, but being sacked around accusations of corruption. If he had resigned in protest against "the red tape", or "allocation of funds to Kerala", or even "ludicrous nature of Indian foreign policy" it would have been a worth while tenure. I do not understand when people say "tharoor is the new kinda politician". I do understand that he never fit in, but that is not enough to claim that he is any different or any better.

Search fun :)

My top picks from the last 233 searches that landed in Talkies. My favorite of course is "PRITHVIRAJ DESTROYED MOHANLAL". Seriously? with Antony Perumbavoor around? what was the reason for [...]

May be some of us should be outraged, may be the girl was plain unlucky, may be some of us managed a subtle turn on, may be parents should take better care of their young children, or may be the fault dear brutus is not in the stars but in ourselves.
