The movie blast called 'Shivaji'


Oops.. Rajni did it again ! it's a wonder to watch him transform to a powerful king on the screen, conquering the hearts of the viewers with his energy and style.
It's never late to catch Rajni alive in the theatres.. most of the fans must have watched it several times by now.. though a fan myself (not hardcore), I watched the movie only last weekend in Sangam theatre in Mysore city.
AVM productions, Shankar, Rahman and ofCourse the Rajni magic did the trick to attract the thickest of the crowds to the theaters even here in Mysore inspite of being a tamil movie, which shows the unity of Rajni admirers !

want to know the interesting infos of this movie ? http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0479751/trivia

lesser social space for an IT professional

I attended the marriage reception of my friend Hridish's brother in Bangalore on Friday night.The function was held in a hall and I could see pleasant faces of all the relatives and friends who came for the marriage reception.
I was quite taken by the thought of importance of marriage in a person's life. It is a testimony of one's presence in a society. Here I could see that majority of the invitees had a good relationship with the parents of the bridegroom, but I am not sure how familiar was the bridegroom to his relatives since he was abroad in US.This brought to me the reality that many of us in software profession seldom have any relationship with our own relatives back home nor share a common social space with them. It happens that a software professional is busy working in Bangalore that he is not bothered to keep his social relations back home alive. But for the presence of parents back home, most of the s/w professionals do not have a social relation buildup. It happens with many that they meet their own relatives for the first time in their marriage only!
