One year of Blogging

Kudos to me...Its been a year of blogging for me and I slowly got inclined towards this and made it a hobby.I thank all my readers and my friends who read this blog occassionaly or regularly.It all started when I watched Sivaji on the first day and I wanted to share the joy of watching than reviewing the movie.Movie watching has always fascinated me and for many,some times I find crazy of watching the movie Bombay 35 times in theatres alone just for Manisha Koirala ( That can not be counted just for Movies J) .I have shared some memorable movie experience of watching movies in this blog.I trust many would have the same .

Ashok's blog gave a huge inspiration to write blog on movies and ofcourse my brother Sivaram who had been my movie partner and we both share radical views on movies.I am Rajini Fan and he is a Kamal fan.Its been a year and I have almost viewed 2oo movies (some of the movies I had missed to review ).But I have been prompt in posting ,may it be from Madurai,Surat,Mumbai,Tirunelveli,Ahmedabad.I have been enjoying this experience and I can see there all lots of room for improvement.I started with Sivaji and I am now with Dasavatharam.

When I started blogging ,my friends made fun of my promptness in posting the review .But slowly it became a routine for them to check my comments on the movie.The medium gave some good friends who became my regular readers.Since a year there have been some exciting movies and I took some pains in selecting movies .When I was in college my friend Yuvaraj and myself used to discuss about the movies which we see .Our discussion used to be a analysis of the movie which would fit as a review if written.I think back the days of watching the movies in Madurai bunking my case studies in the college.Mappilai Vinayagar was a great source of world cinema for guys like me .

I have tried to maintain the consistency of postings both in my Tamil Blog (http://www.arunthapattam.blogspot.com/ ) and this one.I wanted to put forth my thanks again to friends Mathi,Ashok,Bharathy,S.K,Kotees,Sabari and many more .Thanks for the support and happy reading.

5 Forgotten Tamil movies (70's 80's 90's) to watch during this lock down available in Youtube

Image
There used to be days when I used to watch a movie twice, thrice or even five times in a theatre. Every one growing up watching Rajini, Kamal would definitely agree; Aboorva sagotharargal, Batsha, Kadhalukku mariyathai or many to name it.  It may be completely not possible today with the schedule and the amount of new content which streams before you. Some movies bring nostalgic moments when they are telecasted today. For example, I usually have it with Bombay, I remember watching it atleast 30-40 times in theatres in and around Tirunelveli. I have rehashed some of Tamil movies which is available in Youtube today which you should watch it again.  These were some of the movies which gave huge inspirations to film makers, script writers or be it any one loves cinema like me. Test it , first 15 minutes of any these movies and I bet you will sure complete the whole movie. There were movies which defined the audience and also there are why Tamil cinema stands out even today. Unn

With Silambattam Simbu needs a hit badly and he does what he knows the best.Dance and Action. Silambattam is a out and out Tamil Masala movie shot in a village atmosphere.Incidentally the Tamil cinema is able to break the Friday lucky day to release this movie on Thursday. Silambattam is the same old Family revenge story. Vichu ( Simbu ) is an innocent temple priest who is brought up by his grandfather ( Nedumudi Venu ) as a coward. in a village.His grandfather hides him from knowing the past.He comes to know about his father Tamilarasan who was Killed twenty years ago in a family riot by a young boy Thuraisingh . Prabu who is the brother of Tamil finds Vichu and Vichu turns as Tamil and takes revenge. First and foremost of this movie that this movie can win is because of Music and some versatile choreography , Yuvan and Simbu combination has worked again and this time it’s a youth package with some great variety of dancing from Simbu . Simbu has displayed his maturity in

Anantha Thandavam -The original Pirivom Sandhippom

Below is the write up about a movie which I expect so much for this year.The story has been my personal favorite and is based on one of the best Tamil novel which I have read so far.I happened to read the novel Pirivom Santhippom during my college days ,which made me to think aloud about love.Written by Sujatha the story was initially published in Anantha Vikatan in early 80’s.The story of Pirivom Santhippom is of two series first in Tirunelveli second part in America.After eight years I am able to recall each and every characters of the work.This has nothing to do with my memory but with the beauty of the book.The main characters are “Ragupathi and Madumitha “.After reading the book I felt there can not be a sweeter name than Madumitha .Even the name of the particular character while reading the novel will make you feel for Ragupathy. Ragupathy meets his Ex lover in USA during his stay for his higher studies.Ragupathy avoids her but Madumitha married to a NRI Radhakrishnan @Rad moves
