Six weird things about me!!!

Ok .. so i have been tagged again by PK ... This time on Six Weird things about me!!!

1. I think im one of the weird'est person on this earth because of the following weird things :-(Dont you think this itself is weird ?)


2. Whts this world ?
I always have this thought on "How this world was formed ?, How did human beings were created, Why did these all happen, where is it goin to end". If i get some lonely time.. thats it, I go to the terrace, gazing at the sky, stars, moon will keep thinking about how all these happened ?


3. Am I Real ?
In continuation with the above.. I think who am I? Why was i born ? Why do I think like this when most of them i see, does not even care to think about it. Have you ever felt "Am I Real?". I have felt it, many times. At any busy schedule also.. suddenly I take a deep breath and think, if all the things happening around me is real or just imaginary. I look around people starring, if they are real are just made to act. And wonder if others will feel like this ?


4. What others think about me ?
Whatever I do or I say, I tend to think from others point of view. In a way its good that I adjust so much for others, that im very easy going and helping, but too much of anything isnt good rite ? I go very deep in this thought and so get confused while taking decisions. One thing what i have learnt is "ITS DIFFICULT TO CONVINCE EVERYONE". The worst thing is even if i happen to have a glance at any girl passing by... i would go deep into the thought of meeting her, getting close to her n sudenly all the problems that could happen b/n us comes in front of my thought.


5. Talking to myself
Thookathule nadakurethe pathi kelvi patiruken. Naan appadi kedaiyathu.. but sometimes (only sometimes thaane ? ) I talk to myself forgetting the whole world. People might think that im mad... so bad that im sad (he he he!!!)


6. Sadest!!!
Kadavul paathi Mirugam paathi kalantha seitha kalavai maari - On the outside im very humourous guy. I want to make others happy and dont mind being a comedian (At times people make fun of that, and though i get hurt, wont show it out as my motive of making them happy has been achieved). On the inner im a very sadest guy. Soga padam (Tragedy ) na romba pidikum. Especially Moondram pirai, Nayagan... Antha padam paakum pothellam i will get into that character and literally cry - and i dont know why.


Ippo 1st point padichu paarunge... Na sonnathu rightaa ?
Ithellam sonna piragu, dont get afraid. I know how to behave with whom... :)

God created Man or Vice versa ?

Before reading further, have a glance at Kanya's Blog on "God - the almighty???"

Did God create Man or Man created God?
Let me start with the ironical statement that "God did create Man... but indeed Man created GOD". Means, no one (atleast whoever exists now) knew who is god, how God looked or what was his objective. All we know is that there is some Almighty Power and this was told to us by our ancestors through each of their Religion. So it was Man who gave a name to that Almighty power as "GOD".

Religion - how would it have been formed ?

I feel that group of people would have joined together to set rules what is life, how to live and so. People who had contradiction for those would have started another group. Apart from that, people from another part of the world would have also had their own principles and rules. (Those days, people from different parts of the world wouldnt have interacted). Guess this is how the religion would have formed. Whichever be the religion Hindu, Muslim or Christian, what they all believed in is the almighty divine power. And to spread their rules or believes people would have started writing it or passing it to the next generation through teachings. Thats how Bible, Kuran and the Geethai would have been written. Probably it would have taken many versions as generations passed. Not really sure as to if all the existing ones are the actual ones too.

Ethics - did they really happen ?

Human beings have both good and bad attitudes or thoughts. Some of the elders who have felt that it is necessary to teach the good and bad to the younger generation, could have used the idea of narrating imaginative stories. Kings could have asked the poets to create such stories. And i feel that is how the epics like Ramayana, Mahabharata would have also come into action. Does any of us have a proof that all these historic epics occured for real ?

Justification of Mahabharata
Kanya's View : "I disagree. I see the entire war in "Mahabharatha" as a cause of unjustifiable pride, ego, greed, sarcasm, disrespect and more unsatisfied humanly desires. Just becoz there was a symbolization of god (Krishna) taking the pandavas side, doesn't mean that pandavas were the "GOOD" and the kauravas were "BAD"!! Was god even neutral here? Not to mention the tricks he played on Karna and Thuriyodana to make them most vulnerable to death!!! No matter what the cause was, is it "dharma" to kill ur own family to win a war??"

My Reply : First of all I see Mahabharata as a story. Before going to the detail of Mahabharata.. a small explanation. Though a Star plays a "Anti-hero" role in a movie, he is the main subject of it and so his character would have been justified. As in, even he does kill people (villain) or does some tricky things.. but the director smartly shows a reason as to why he does that. Probably the villain would have either killed the hero's father or would have destroyed his family for money, wealth n so. Obviously he is done a mistake, killing is not the revenge for it and if so.. next the villain's son would take revenge and it would go endless. Though if it continous for generation, one question here is who started it all ? That way, alteast our hero is justigfied.

Similar to the above, Mahabharata starts of with 2 big teams, Pandavas and the Kauravas. The story itself shows that Pandavas are with good ATTITUDE while the Kauravas are kind of greedy. Everyone is human and everyone is capable of doing mistakes. But one who accepts it or learns from the mistakes is forgiven. This is one of the message that is told through this epic. The main message being "Dharmathin vaithanai soothu kavvum, aanal iruthiyal dharmame vellum". In the last it is Dharmam that wins... If you take the current world, this happens in many families. Fights between relatives, brothers & sisters.. either for the property or money or for some misunderstandings. Can you disagree that ? We do find many relatives with ego, jelous, greedy. Inspite of all these messages in the epics... do you think they try to change ?

Kanya's View : "Let us examine this part of the whole mahabharath a lil more explicitly. What was the reason behind pandavas accepting a lavish gift like the mayamahal? what gave panjali the right to humiliate a man for a reason as silly as tripping over an illusion!! what gave her that much of pride and sarcasm? what made pandava irresitable to a game of gambling? what made dharmar bid his wife on the game? what made the rest of the pandavas resist questioning dharmar then? why did that respect for elders fail when they faced their previous generation on the battle field??"

My Reply : Again this is a story and the creator as his choice to make it however he wants. He gives an example of such situation where Pandavas are forced to take the gambling (which could have been a custom in those early days). It was the author who had given rights to Panjali for humiliating a man for tripping her dress. I dont understand why you ask that way. Any girl even now for that matter, if someone tries to trip her off in front of a crowd, will get humiliated.. wont you ? Ofcourse even i dint like the way of gambling with your wife, but again thats the author's choice of creating a situation. Rest of the pandavas do get angry ofcourse. There are different versions of mahabharata itself. From one of them which i studied in my school days there is a stanza where Bheema says bring the firewood, lets burn our brother's hand. "Erithalal kondu vaaa, Anan kaithanai erithiduvom". In the Mahabharata serial (which they used to telecast in TV), they show how Arjun feels bad to fight against his guru Dhronacharya in the war. Krishna explains Arjuna, no option other than fighting.. if someone supports a guy, and if the guy is bad, then obviously he is encouraging bad things. is it not ?? Though Karna is also a gem of a man, he supports Duryodhana (who has been depicted bad character) and so even if he was the elder brother of pandavas, Krishna says that he has to be killed.

Kanya's View : "If everything that pandavas did were humanly mistakes, is a man seeking revenue for the humiliation and all the isolation he went through from his youth make him vulnerable to similar mistakes as well. Why is that pandavars mistakes forgiven and kauravars not!! who gave krishna the right to choose sides? Wasn't he suppose to be neutral!!??"

My Reply : Again like i said earlier, Kauravas are depicted as bad people. They are shown as greedy, egoistic people. Provided they are equally strong and powerful. They do have magical powers that can be challenging more to the Pandavas. For the same reason Krishna helps Pandavas. Nayagan Stlye le sollanum naa... "Naal peru nalla irukanum na enna venum naalu pannalam". Antha mistakes ellathukkum mannippu kedaichidum (na sollale.. mahabharatam solluthu ;))

Kanya's View : "If killing ur own kith and kin on a ego clash that started with a mayamahal is dharma, then we would have to accept one of us killing one of their distance brother for their grandparent's property as dharma too. Is shooting Vaali from back is ethical then I will have to accept my kid throwing stone at his senior from his back as ethical too. If destroying an entire city of Madurai, unjustice was done to kanaki, then when our youth destroy public property b'coz their professors did not correct their papers properly should be looked upon as seeking justice!!!"

My Reply : One question to you... If your own brother joins a terrorist gang and involves in bombing common people or if he rapes girls what would you do ? If i were you in this situation i would definetly kill him. (if not atleast try to put him in jail by complaining). As per the story Vaali kidnaps his brother Sukreevan's wife. Do you justify what vaali did is right ? (this happens even in real life... ) Provided Vaali has a boon that whoever comes in front of him, he will acquire 50% of that person's power (as per story). In that case what will you do to get rid him off ? I would have definetly done the same thing what Ram did. Professor paper seriya correct pannalane paravale. But nalla padikure payano poonnayo kare vechu fail panna ? (Do you know that there are many professor who takes things egoistically and spoil kids future .. instead of teaching them what mistake they did. I have read in papers such incidents where one of the boy or girl have sucided). Avangula ellam summa ve vidurathu ? Anniyan Padathule vara maari "Anju paise thirudinaa thappa ? -- Periya thappilinge, Anju kodi peru anju paise thirudina thappa ? -- Thappu maarithange theriyuthu, Anju kodi peru anju kodi thadave anju anju paise thirudina thappa ? - Periye thappunge ------------ Athanda inge nadunthukittu iruku "

By all these im not concluding that Mahabharata was a great epic nor im not saying that it is a bad example. Its up to us to take it... either we can see the half empty glass or we can see the half filled glass.

Is God - the Almighty ??
Kanya's View : "I am not a god-hater.. but when I look behind in my life, there were people who came in my life for a very short period of time, made an impact on me - as if their whole purpose of life is to come into my life at the right moment and help me, and then they vanished leaving a deep hurt!! I sometimes truely belived that god sent these people in my life only b'coz he had to help me at that point of time and he choose to do it through them.
But what gave him the right to take these people away from my life once his purpose was done? Is he making choices for me? what gives him the right to do so? when he created human beings as a bundle of complex emotions ... did he not have a FAQ and technical support document prepared?? Did he not know it was going to hurt me worst when he is going to take away something from me?? or is he going to blame that on Satan and say even I have a satan on my back!!??

That brings us to my starting question... Is god really an almighty.. does he always make the right choices for all of us. It is not just about my or your emotions but as a bigger picture too. Why are there soo much negativity in the world.. no matter how positive we want to think, we still see bad in the world. I can understand certain things like volcano or earth quake... why is there rape, child abuse, killing, hunger and disease? why din't god make good choices for these criminals?"

My Reply : Ok here is were we both are in sync. Good that you are not a god-hater and so am I. Ofcourse I do have the same question as to "Why this whole world was created, why was I born ? People are born, people live and they die.. what is the objective ? where did these all start from and where is it going to end ?" No one has the perfect or satisfactory answer to these questions. When I tried to verify with some of the Swamiji's all the answer I get is "It is not your right to ask questions, you are born to live and you are given a job.. just do that" Makes me feel like a slave of god. If only he comes in front of me, that would be the end of him (he he!!!). All I need is answers to these questions.

World - A Game of Gamble between GOD & Satan

Is it true that all these are called "BAD KARMA"... but every thing freezes at the starting point. Why did god not make a choice to protect adam and eve from eating the filthy apple!!! "

To an extent a satisfactory answer that I have known is :- Initially it was only one power that was existing and it was GOD (As we have named). He did have both good and bad thoughts. GOD then created his better half and gave equal power to him. I guess the better half had more of bad thoughts. He was called by us as SATAN, and he started opposing GOD and wanted to show that he had more power. The basic thing in the Universe is TWO :- Male-Female, Good-Bad, Plus-Minus, Positive-Negative, On-Off, True-False, Yes-No. Probably to show his power God created Adam and Eve and told Satan, "Hey look, what I have created, 2 creatures called Human Being and the beauty is that they can Think!!!". Satan plays a game saying that "I will turn them against you" and tries to get the negative thoughts into them. (Ivange podure sandaile naamba maatikittu mulikirom huh!!!). The rest you know ..... and today You and Me are having a small discussion (is it small ??) about this...

Lage Raho Sanju Babaa

Dedicated to Mahatma Gandhi





Ok, before going to "Lage Raho Sanju-babaa" I want to write my review about the real movie "Lage Raho MunnaBhai".


One liner for the movie "A Perfect example of telling message in an entertaining way". After coming back from the matinee show, right away sat on the comp to write about it. The reason being :-


1. I just loved the movie a lot.
2. It was coincidence that I happen to see the movie on Gandhi Jayanthi (Who have seen it will know it and if you havent yet, a movie to be watched - dont miss it)
3. I want the blog to be dated on the same date (October 2nd for Gandhi ji's birthday)


Take it from me.. If "MunnaBhai MBBS" was superb then this one is much better than that. First of all this is not a continuation of "MunnaBhai MBBS" (atleast i heard like that and was in that impression). Its altogether a different movie but with mostly the same cast and some of the characters repeated (Munna Bhai, Circuit).


Story

The MunnaBhai and his best friend Circuit are a team of local mumbai goon who take money for beating people or doing any such activity. MunnaBhai is in love with the voice of Jhanvi who is a Radio Jockey (Slightly reminds Preity Zinta in Salam Namasteee). Just to impress her MunnaBhai takes up a call on answering details about Mahatma Gandhi which he manages with the help of some professors (ofcourse by threatning them ...). Later is forced to give a lecture on Gandhi for which he starts reading about him. He reads, reads and reads for 3 continous days that he is able to see Gandhi ji in front of him (visual illusion). After that what he does as per Gandhi's words is the story. {I dont want to say the entire story he he!!!)


Cast

MunnaBhai - Sanjay Dutt, Abey aur kaun karega ye character mamuuuuuuu - Ek tham perfect se fit hotha he na!!!. [His real nick name is Sanju baba.. and thts how i got the nick too. Thanks to Anees for giving that nick to me]

Circuit - Arshad Warsi, he is simply superb, the way he safe guards MunnaBhai, the way he speaks the slang. He definetly adds to the movie's comedy.

Jhanvi - Vidya Balan, What do i say for this girl... I have fallen for her. So cute, beautiful, her nature of helping the oldage people. I wish i was Munna bhai (he he)

Lucky Singh - Boman Irani, ooh is it the same guy who did the role of principal in "MunnaBhai MBBS", couldnt recognise him that easily. He surely needs an applause for his acting.


Crew

Director : Rajkumar Hirani (Hats off to him)
Producer : Vidhu Vinod Chopra

Apun ka blog mein, welcome hai. Apun ka naam maalum hai na, "Sanju Babaa... bolte hai log". Idher aneka, apun ka blog padneka aur enjoy karneka. jadoo ki jhappi deneka, life mein enjoy karneka. Bole Toh... Solid timepass karneka.

After watching the movie while coming out of the theater... i suddenly shouted a bit loudly towards my friend "Abey Circuit........ Muje Baboo diktha hai re, tuje diktha hai kya" and many laughed at it. Though i made a comedy there, i seriously felt that Gandhi ji hasnt expired, he still lives in many of our hearts. The only way to show our tribute to him, is to follow his messages. "Non-Violence, Truthfullness, Patience, Honesty, Discipline and Punctuality"

Jai Hind

Vande Matram


P.S : Thnx to the movie for fullfilling my long term wish of writing a blog in Hind-ish. Please dont mind my hindi (Apun ka hindi hai na.. bahuth acha hai ;)
