Random Thoughts

  • When you don’t get what you desired, learn to like what you have got. Is it easy?
  • One moment you are enjoying something the most, the very next moment you start finding it boring. Human mind is strange, isn’t it? (Manam oru kurangu? 😛 )

Books, Movies, Music, TV

Is what I spent the weekend with! After having had a great weekend, I am not at all complaining about having to work late today also! 🙂

Movies
I finally managed to watch the 2 movies that I have wanted to watch for a long time now, but somehow kept missing, Munnabhai MBBS and Lage Raho Munnabhai, and I liked both the movies very much. I watched these two back to back on Saturday. 🙂
Yesterday, I watched Bunty Aur Babli for the third time. Wish Abhishek Bachchan and Rani Mukherjee act in more movies! The main reasons for which I like or rather I don’t find this movie boring is Abhishek and Rani and the music. Though many say that the movie is sans logic or something like that, I like it. Makes for a good time pass.

Tanha Dil

This song is one of my favourites and I am sure is the favourite of many of you. This song has got wonderful lyrics too! And, I consider it as the best of Shaan till date.

Aankhon mein sapnay liye
Ghar se hum chal to diye
Jaane yeh raahein ab le jaayengi kahaan?

A fact of life

You write in your blog about missing summer holidays and having to work on all days (I mean weekdays), at a time when you don’t really have much work to do in office. Now what happens! You get more work and you have to stay back late and work on a Friday evening! The more you complain, the more things become bad, isn’t it?

I want summer vacation!

For the first time in my life, I am not having summer vacation! Am missing it so badly 🙁 Having had a holiday yesterday, I am missing it even more! The next holiday on a weekday is only on August 15th! 🙁

Kharaharapriya all the way!

Today, I got the recording of a concert of Sanjay Subrahmanyan held on 30th July, 2002 at SVN Music Academy, Bangalore. It had a 1-hour 5-minutes RTP in Kharaharapriya sung by Sanjay! What more can you ask for! In the RTP, he has sung the Pallavi ‘rAma nI samAna’ in raagas Kanada, Salaka Bhairavi, Darbar and Siva Ranjani. It’s too good! Sanjay had sung Raga Sudha Rasa in that concert. A 4-minute alapana of Andolika followed by the song is awesome! Can’t stop listening to it! (I am listening to T.M.Krishna’s and Sanjay’s Raga Sudha Rasa alternately now!) I am yet to listen to other songs in that.

Incidentally, today has been a day full of Kharaharapriya!
I listened to Chakkani Raja sung by Sri Chembai Vaidyanatha Bhagavatar, then, another 1-hour RTP in Kharaharapriya sung by Vedavalli and above all, the song I am learning now is Chakkani Raja! 🙂
