Rajani- The "R" Factor
I would be going to watch Rajnikant's comeback vehicle, as it is touted to be, in North Bergen, NJ. There would be 33 of us whistiling('course suresh has the honour of doing this) for the Super *. Now I want to know what is so super *ry about him that even our educated professionals(some of them handling projects of million $ in question) go to the theater and watch is movies.
I accept he provides the masses a "mass" (pun intended) entertainment but is it what we look for? I know I am going because I am married and this is one disadvantage of getting married.
Why is he called a leader when he refuses to lead? Why does Tamilnadu get cold when he sneezes and why do people go to his movies again and again? Remember last time his movie "Baba" bombed terribly. Now isn't it surprising that even that movie was called his comeback vehicle.
I guess one of the main reason( I dont have to be a Harvard's Professor to profess this) that his movies are/were such big hits is people tend to blend the onscreen image with the offscreen image. This is where the personal and professional lines are blurred. I remember a case where Manoj K. Jain ( I dont know who this guy is.. Harita told me about him) was not allowed to get out of the Airport as he attacked the Super star in the movie "Dalapati" as the villian. Only after Rajni Kant interfered, he was allowed to come out of the airport.
Now why do not we understand that an onscreen image is the professional image not the personal life. Yeah! I know this is not always true. One S.K. is an exception to this rule.... But People do not believe it, we do not believe it. It is because of this reason that JL is ruling one state and AB has a temple in his name.
If we are so educated and professional, why do we fail to educate ourselves. I knew a collegemate who use to pray and touch "THAILAIVAR"'s feet before going for his exams. I do not know where he is.
Just think how carefully these actors cultivated their image. They have only moms in the movies. They always bash up villians and they always are sweet to their gals.. Look at Vijay. Do you see the pattern? You would see the same pattern in South Indian(Tamil and Telugu) movies. What about the Hindi movies? well thats one another story ,another blog.
Ahem, as I was blogging,look at their images. I guess Rajni is not the only one who cultivated it. It started with people like MGR,NTR and some many other "R"s. Now there are these guys.. Sharat Kumar,Vijay,Ajit who are trying to do the same. Who will win? who will lose? I do not know. The only thing I learn is .. we lose.. an amount equivalent to $25. Lets see
I will post my review after I come back!!!
Watch this space.. I am tired!!! whooooooooooooooooo!

Hairless Attitude
When I was young(I am still) , I used to get my head tonsured quite often.. thats the reason I am balding now.....
and upon being queried by my profs and made fun of by my peers and friends I used to cite the following benefits
1) Manageability
If you have ever travelled in India on a Mobike then obiously your hair would have been dishevelled by the time, you reach your destination. Now this was the perfect solution to end that
2) No Oil, No combing
I could sleep extra 15 minutes
3) No Dandruff
4) If ever you need to itch, you can go to the root and itch
and hence the quote
" If you have hair, itch will bitch"
5) and last but not the least
thats one way to show ur bare-dare attitude and believe me nothing can be more shocking than seeing a well haired guy going clean shaven... and once u give someone this shock.. well that reduces one more surprise/shock in the other persons life
Anything else...
No time gotta go

Ganguly Jokes
Got this from one of the forwards.. Too good
Thanks Padmanabhan
The following are some of the ideas for Ganguly to regain form and stay in the middle for a longer duration.(subject to approval by I.C.C)
IDEA NO:1: Plastic Ball or Tennis Ball or Rubber Ball to be used while bowling to Ganguly.
IDEA NO:2: Only one stick should be kept while Ganguly is Batting instead of Three so that his chances of getting out bowled will be minimised
IDEA NO:3: Dada can wrap up his legs with 4 or 5 bats instead of pads, sothat there is no chance of getting out lbw.
IDEA NO:4: The size of the ball can be reduced to the size of a lemon or size of his bat can be increased to twice its size. Or the size of the ground can be decreased to that of a Basketball Ground.
IDEA NO:5: Fast Bowlers are prohibited to bowl the following deliveries to Dada. They should not bowl Inswinger,Outswinger,Off cutter, Leg cutter,Bouncer,Short Pitched Ball, Reverse swinging ball, yorker,reverse swinging yorker,slower ball and most importantly in and around the off stump corridor.
IDEA NO:6: Slow Bowlers are prohibited from bowling off spin,leg spin,doosra,googly,china man,flipper,faster ball.
IDEA NO:7: Speed restrictions for bowlers:
FAST BOWLERS: MAX 120 KMPH
SLOW BOWLERS: MAX 50 KMPH.
IDEA NO:8 Fast bowlers in their runup should run like Mohinder Amarnath and slow bowlers should not run at all.
IDEA NO:9 Ganguly can change his position as medium fast bowler instead of Batsman and bat at no:11, so that by the time he enters the ground 48 or 49 overs would have been bowled.
IDEA NO:10: I.C.C Should warn Pakistan Bowlers that hereafter any bowler taking Dada's wicket, the number will not be added to the bowler's tally of wickets.
IDEA NO:11: Bowlers should not appeal for dismissal of Ganguly. Even a small appeal (not necessarily loud appealing or excessive appealing) will lead to match refereee Chris Broad suspending the bowler for the rest of the series.
IDEA NO:12: Fast Bowlers should only throw the ball and slow bowlers should use underarm throw.
IDEA NO:13: Even after this if Ganguly gets out, the bowler will be called a chucker and new rule for bowling action, i.e.( 2 degrees bending of bowling arm allowed for fast bowlers and 3 degrees bending of bowling arm for slow bowlers) will be taken into account and the bowler will be immediately sent to Australia by next flight for corrective action.
IDEA NO:14: No fielder should catch the ball hit by Dada. If they catch, then any of the opening batsman who got out earlier, like virender shewag will be allowed to bat for second time.
IDEA NO: 15: For every minute Dada stays in the middle, one run will be added to his score and if the ball hits the bat and travels to the following places, runs will be credited to Dada as follows. Slip,Gully,Forward Short Leg: 1 run Mid on,mid off, cover,point: 2 runs long on,long off,fine leg,third man: 3 runs. and finally if Dada's wicket is taken before he reaches 50 runs all pakis will be fined 50% of their match fees.

Ideas for starting a biz..
Some of the following ideas that we have are
1) Starting Dabba on wheels in Tristate Area(AP, Karnataka and TamilNadu). Is n't that a trikon a triangle?
Well guess what? It is .. and hence I posted this
what will we do with this "DOW"?
First of all, I will register it as www.wow-dow.com
Secondly, I will have the 1-600 no as 1-600-wowdow.com
oops I forgot the core idea. The idea is to sell dabbas loaded with food to the hard pressed professionals for a discounted prize
Any more ideas...
Please let me know.
I will update this whenever I get some ideas - so watch this space
