s/w companies vs kazhaga arasiyal...

I was literally amused by the way Azim Premji announced his son Rishad's arrival to take over the mantle from him. This was very much on the lines of the senior politicians in our country who initially will convey that their children will not step into politics or join their own party. But every party leader has his own son and daughter (latest to join in the list being "kanimozhi" for DMK/MK). I didn't understand this hypocracy of quoting that my children / i will not enter politics and step into the same after few years in a timely planned manner. The worst thing is that now software companies would follow the same as these munnetra kazhagams (which takes care of only their "munnetrams" and their families' munnteram). When I heard that rishad premji would be joining Wipro Munnetra Kazhagam, I was laughing at their Council's decision (Seyar Kuzhu mudivu...he he ellam namella edukarathu thaan...ketta Seyar Kuzhu...Sambhar Kuzhu nnu) I hope all these

Sivaji rocks!!!

Abbada !! The wait was over to see the superstar. We guys @ office made sure see the movie on the first day first show as a die hard idiot would die in india. Here i dont need to wait in long queues in hectic temperatures, just a click would do. Coming to the Point, Sivaji was technically a slick movie in Pan Indian standards (better to hundreds of desi hindi movies which still relies on multiple stars, family songs, foreign locales, plagaraised music and ofcourse amitabh bachan to appear in cameo. I was disappointed by the narration of second half in Sivaji by Sujatha (Rangarajan, noted writer and Shankar). Ideally even today i feel had rajni did Mudhalvan I would have enjoyed it lot more than this movie. But this was complimented by the first half, Vivek had a big part and had created a laugh riot for the first hour. The comedy was pretty decent and short of double entendres (except for the "Adi/kabodhi" scene. I was not convinced about the main theme of Black Money Hoardin
