MELVILASAM- A real sense of identity!

This classic hit the theatres somewhere in June 2011 .... The plot revolves around Sawaar Ramachandran(essayed by actor Parthiban with a lot of substance and quality behind each scene he emotes! ... Thank You Sir !... Hats off for a super splendid perfomance! ) who is facing the army court martial for having shot two senior officers(one succumbing to injuries)...The court martial proceedings are presided over by Col Suraj Singh and other members who participate include Captain Vikas Ray, the defence counsel(Suresh Gopi ... a little different from his much cliched cop roles.. yet again he proves he is real vintage stuff when it comes to playing characters that are characterised by "stiffness","rigidity"etc), Major Ajay Puri the government pleader), Captain B.D Kapoor(Krishnakumar) etc.

I do not wish to expound more on the story line. That is left to the reader to watch and perceive it for oneself. Rather, this post is simply to covey my sincere feelings of gratitude to Mr Surya Krishnamoorthy for having ventured to gift the thinking malayali his much deserved due. As I ponder over how exactly the title "MELVILASAM" can be deemed befitting to this movie, I consciously conclude that the girl childs identity is aligned with her foster father Sawaar Ramachandran whose days are numbered as the verdict passed is to "hang him until death". He has suffered rebuke, insults and torture from his senior officers. His daughter wont see him for long. Yet again after his demise, young Ammu wont be devoid of her real identity which is the respect Sawaar Ramachandran has acquired for he stands for discipline and loyalty. The salute conferred by General Suraj Singh in the "touching climax" simply stands for the real recognition of a self respecting individual's sense of self respect! .... The message is clearly conveyed ... It is a 10/10 from my side!

INTROSPECTION-

Fragrances in the air ....

that leave traces behind...

reasons seem lapsed...

But here i am feeling as..

relieved as young Simon..

who has been assured of his favourite chocolate...

Read Gulzaman's Son and you ll know what im talking about!

What it takes to move forward and fight !

I have often wondered as to how it is that the choices that we make and sticking to them help us to handle the toughest of calls in life ?. What is the factor that guides us! ... I find my questions very relevant in this era especially when i see/feel that unrighteousness seems to go unchecked.... the bar that sets the standard of ethics, discipline, righteousness, values seems to lower by subscribing to heavily corrupted practices! .... Does it really help clinging on to god and his grace ?... If its just our own actions that decides our fate then what was the powerful force that has guided the accomplishment of the mammoth tasks ?... In short what should I be ?... good/bad .... right/wrong ... if then how good/how bad ? ... how right/how wrong ?.... if so will in win/ will i lose ? .... most importantly what is good/ what is bad ? ... these questions have time and again reflected and translated into my biggest nightmares that have literally wrecked havoc with my life! .... I have often found myself losing a part of me seeking answers .... TODAY I PRESENT BEFORE YOU THE ANSWER GIVEN TO ME BY MY GURU! ......HE HAS ANSWERED IT FOUR WONDERFUL LINES

FOLLOW THE MASTER

FACE THE DEVIL

FIGHT TO THE END

FINISH THE GAME

The best part is points 2,3 and 4 are nothing but a direct consequence of point 1 ..... I will expound on this in the coming weeks!... meanwhile please check this link http://media.radiosai.org/Journals/Vol_07/01OCT09/03-HTH.htm

Whats with an AD ?

Hmm fair enough, you have a point there .... What exactly does over adulation of the Bajaj Avenger Motorbike prove ?. Well you see, I do have nearly the same level of appreciation as most of you if you were to look at it as a 1 minute video that endorses the bike. I went by the wordings that you hear throughout the course of the video.

My dad: I have had tussles with my parents. In fact I have told them that they can lay their claims only to my human body, but not my thoughts. For they are mine alone. I am my boss. I dont believe in duality. I believe in god. God is in everyone. God is in me. I AM GOD !

Girlfriend: This is too personal. I have been in two relationships. Being in one is very much analogous to the moth which gets attracted to fire. You either bloody burn to ashes or you get liberated(the best thing that ever happens to you). I am now a transformed man. Currently in a relationship with god. It feels like god !

My past: Hmm I always tell myself "Rahul theres no point in pondering over past events. Your present is a direct consequence of your past.". My dad uses his favourite example of that of Birbal's helplessness in making his child who was hell bent on ringing the royal darbar bell "yesterday" to make me understand me the fallacy of getting so stuck up with the past. Let go of it. The present alone is the truth. Yesterday is mystery, tomorrow is history, the present alone is the gift: Courtesy Mr Mohammed Aijaz, my school principal

My Boss: Well Mr Arunakar Mishra, the CEO of Genser Aerospace and IT Pvt Ltd is a gentleman. So not much to mention about him. I really wanted to describe how passionately I hate some people with whom I have unfortunately acquainted with(I didn't have a choice!). But this is not the place where I derogate them. I have my personal blog and this guarantees me my freedom of speech. I make use of this tool to say I forgive you people. No grudges as we hopefully wont see each other again. Wishing you the very best in life. I forgive you all for all that you have done to me. What if I wont be able to forgive you again ? !!!

As we near to the end of this blog, let me tell you that your very enemies are within you. They don't deserve even an iota of your mercy. The people around, the circumstances that you encounter in your life, infact everything external to yourself can all be forgiven. Just smile and start dealing your fears with firmness. You will know what Im talking about ......

Take 1: Making of a nemesis and taking on them

I have of late perceived that I am very capable of perceiving a lot of things that endorses life's gifts/god's gifts. This is very much vouched for by the fact that I hate 'fear'. I always take on fear by the face. Fear and RC could possibly be treated the worlds best protagonist antagonist combination. Given a situation in which fear were to play the ideal protagonist, I would amass a mountain of blunders for I would be far from perfect!. Now I tune to this song.

An entry for the day

I start this mixed feelings in my mind. Earlier in the day, as I was on my way back home after a 9 hour tenure at Genser Aerospace, I was gripped by negativity. The onset of the very set of emotions that once wrecked my life. I am yet to come in terms with everything. It is at this crucial juncture that I introduce you to Swami. From now on, I will present myself as someone on Swami's behalf. As this wonderful journey called life takes it course, everything will unravel. I will interact with my readers on myriad issues with the sole aim of making you feel refreshed, positive and full of life!. All cheers to a bright start. See you tomorrow!
