Anbe Sivam :)

My dad always told me we belong to the caste of Pillai and our god is Lord Shiva. I never gave religion, caste and similar factors much importance cuz my brother is a very free willed person and I am lot more connected to him in my house than with any of the others. Both of us were bought up in Bahrain and it didn't matter much to us as we mostly communicated in English and did not know how to read or write Tamil. And neither did my parents rub the ritual of going to the temple or doing pooja everyday . Thus, I have friends of all castes. Never has anything spiritual touched me. Even during my school days I used to call myself an atheist when we used to have discussions within friends on spiritual stuff. (But now, I believe into the All Mighty about which I will blog later here :)). So, the first time I was really touched by the qualities of Lord Shiva was when I watched this film Anbe Sivam . When Kamal keeps pressing on the fact that there is God in all of us. Who loves an

He was sooooo cute..... chooooooo sweet......and adorably shy. The guy who used to switch off the lights before he sings cuz he felt shy. The little sweet Dilip Kumar who has transformed to this massive force in music. hats off to you. Tears welled in ma eyes when he spoke in Tamizh "Ella Pugazhum Iraivanukke " and Hindi "Mere Paas Ma Hae ". I loved the way he handled victory. So down to earth. So inspiring. He is one idol we should all look up to, to understand that we should all stick to our roots no matter wht we achieve . He is never too proud. Never with attitude. I love you A R Rahman Sir. May you keep the spirits high always and may you bring more and more glory to music. We are so proud of you for your have brought so much glory to arts and music. The most valuable resources of all that which God has given this universe . Thank you Sir. Two quotes from my favorite people about the Mozart of Madras when he won the golden guy. Adnan Sami - He is s

I realised the essence of this line after watching the movie Abhiyum Naanum . Whtaaa splendid movie. Wow...its a piece of sensible movie making. Really wonderful. Applause to Prakash . Kudos to Radha . Great work. Thank you guys. Your presence in the celluloid has proven itz worth. " Abhiyum Naanum"- A masterpiece ....My family has so much connection to this movie. Abhi is ours. She is ma little niece born on the 17 th of July. My family is 6 of us apart (and a part of her also :)) from our Abhi . And for each 1 of us the title solely applied. Each of us would own the title " Abhiyum Naanum ". We were so keen to watch this film cuz the latest madness in our house is not Rajni or Shahrukh or Britney Spears. But its Abhi Kutty . It is she who has kept us all connected to each other, she has us on our toes, she has filled our lives with this invisible but abundant amout of bliss and hopes. She does not say anything but does everything :) Yes, all these mont
