Superstar Vs Surya

/* Proceed, only if you can understand Tamil */

Namma Thalaivar, "Superstar" aanathukku oru mukkiya kaaranam avaroda movie dialogues. Though some people say it's only for making "scene," I think his one line dialogues are chosen with deeper meanings. E.g. "Naan oru thadava sonna Nooru thadava sonna mathiri". This basically advises people to listen carefully & hence sharpen their listening skills, so that they dont waste either their or the speaker's time.

One of my most favourite dialogues from Rajni is
"Kashta padaama Ethuvum Kidaikkaathu;
Kashta padaama kidai-kirathu Nilaikkaathu"
Surya went ahead of one step in Gajni and said
"Success aganumna..
Kashta pattu Uzhaichaa mattum pothaathu..
Isthta pattu Uzhai-kanum"
Very True...


Ok, coming back to who can fill the SuperStar's Slot today..
  • Vijay - Has Masses, but lacks Multifariousness
  • Ajit - Is Talented, but also Tainted
  • Vikram - Shows Variety, but needs Consistency
  • Surya - No Negatives, but also no Guarantees
Simply put, Everyone is good in one aspect or the other. But none can match our Thalaivar. :-)

Man, The Poem

"Read Man, he is the Living Poem" says Dr. Vivek, who did his PhD from Kanyakumari Rocks.

I like Swami Vivekanda very very much - For the simple reason that he is simple, inspite of his Greatness. It's not just Vivekanda, I can admire at - There are so many Vivekandas still living with us. Everyone has Vivekanandaism, but just that some people have it hidden & they do not want or not know how to unclutter the coverings that hide the V-ism.

Sometimes, I am pretty amazed at people - Their altruism, attitudes, ideas, actions, creations, abilities, efforts, determination, perseverance, friendliness, determination, hardwork etc etc.. There are so many wonderful people around us - Mothers who take care of children selflessly, Friends who love unconditionally, Gandhis who work relentlessly for others, Kalams who sacrifice their life for nation, RP Ma'ams who devote their life for students and teaching... The list goes on & on...

There is so much of positiveness around us - Just that we need to see with our eyes wide open. If we do so, there won't be any negativism or hatred among the human beings.
