There was a blogpost here that I posted for fun, couple of hours back. It read that Lazy Geek will be directing Mani Ratnam. On the hindsight as they say here, I didn’t want to use the names of real people so I deleted the entry.
But here’s the fun link. Write your own news. Again do not use real names.
For the superb minute by minute un-biased reporting /analysis on Tamil Nadu Elections 2006, Idly Vadai Weblog should be awarded a mid-term Indibloggies.
Atleast I suggest we create a Tamil Bloggies and award the first one to Idly Vadai.
Usual Stuff – For starters, guess the movie and the sequence. There is a clue available in every(well, mostly) kollywood car quiz. This is important – If you are planning to guess the answer, don’t open the comments box and spoil the fun yourself. Once you have guessed go straight ahead and comment it without looking for answers.
Did you check out The Odyssey Ad on Vijay TV ? A feel good ad.
For starters Odyssey is an ultra-famous music & book shop at Adayar, just after the Madya Kailash junction and right next to Krishna Sweets. It was one of those hep book stores where chudihaar maamis come to buy dozens of kids books and carnatic music, as you stand there thinking if they really listen to all that. Being next to Krishna sweets, I would always visit Krishna Sweets after Odyssey to eat a suda suda nei poli served on a beetle nut leaf. That was a nostalgic rant.
BTW, the Odyssey ad on Vijay TV talks about the need of literature and music to escape from the mundane routines of life. It goes on to list down writers, musicians and movies for us to imagine a world without them. To quote a part of it, Ippadi Oru Vaazhvai Ninaithu Paarungal. Bhaarathi Illai, Sujatha Illai, Rahman illai and so on. I’m happy for two things here. Its an ad for a bookstore. Its also an interesting ad that might make people think about the importance of literature and music in life. Even if a handful of them visit the store watching this ad, its a success. Good Job.
