Good times ahead for India......

The mandate is out and Dr.Manmohan Singh is all set to become the prime minister for the second consecutive term. He is the first person after Jawaharlal Nehru to successfully have become prime minister after completing the 1st term. Apart from this, the good thing about this election is around 40% of the MP’s are below the age of 50 and it has also given a clear mandate that people of India wants a stable government. Rahul Gandhi grew by leaps and bounds as a politician and his strategy helped congress win majority of seats in Uttar Pradesh. His youth formula and understanding the ground reality of the people of India helped congress win election. India’s future lies in the hands of young people and I hope he ll lead the charge. Can we see yet another ayutha ezhuthu (Yuva) in the making?


The war has finally ended and the dreaded terrorist Velupillai Prabhakaran has been been killed in the island nation. This will give the much needed peace for the people of sri lanka. It has been a long fought war which came to end few days back. Hope both Sinhalese and Tamilians live in harmony unlike before which caused the formation of LTTE. I guess its high time that people of sri lanka can take a leaf out of Indians where there are so many differences in culture, religioin, language, caste but still living united.


Pakistan has finally realized that its main enemy is Taliban and not India. They have crackdown the Taliban terrorists in the Swat valley and hope just like what happened in Sri lanka, Pakistan too should capture these dreaded terrorists.


Lots of good things happening in and around India. These are certainly good signs for everybody and hope Kashmir issue is also solved.

My hearty congratulations to Dr. Manmohan Singh and Co and a special thanks to Rahul Gandhi for giving youth more opportunity. Also I would like to wish the UPA all the very best for a good governance. Our hope rests in these people and am sure with Left out of the alliance the government will take bold decisions to develop India.

May 16th - The D-Day

Today is the final phase of voting for the month long election which decides who will be the next prime minister of India. Personally I was really disappointed with the way the campaign was held all through the country. No political party talked about providing basic amenities for the people in the campaign even though their manifesto mentioned about it. The campaign was largely concentrated on attacking the opposition parties. No wonder why people threw shoes at these leaders. The main agenda in these campaigns was why people should not vote for the opposition party and not why they should vote for them. I was really amused at Congress leadership. They seemed to have different opinion among themselves. First it was Rahul Gandhi who praised Nitish Kumar and Chandrababu Naidu but they are sharing dais with their opposition parties. When they realized that Nitish Kumar will be part of NDA, they started to doubt his secularism. It is heights of hypocrisy. I did not understand Rahul Gandhi saying Jayalalitha a like minded leader. Congress being part of DMK, he said Jayalalitha a like minded leader, does this mean ADMK and DMK are like minded parties? It is like a=b and b=c => a =c. this is certainly not true otherwise there will be no opposition parties in TN. Moreover, these two parties’ rivalry hits the sky during the election and never subsides. Same can be said about Bihar where RJD and LJP are part of UPA but the congress is trying to woo JD(U) which is the main opposition of RJD and LJP. How the chemistry will work out between the Congress and JD(U) when they have RJD and LJP in their alliance. Similarly, TDP is their main opposition party in Andhra Pradesh but they are trying to woo them as well. I seriously doubt these people’s ideology. They can stoop to any level to form the government. What is happening in Rampur is disgusting. Jayaprada is alleging that Azam Khan is distributing nude pictures of her and Amar Singh is saying that Jayaprada will commit suicide if she loses (I don’t know whether Jayaprada knows about it or not). OMG, such a great country is ruled by such people. Above all, Mulayam Singh’s reply to a polling officer when he did not allow the black cats to accompany him.. “mujhe kanoon math sikao. Mein theen bar mukya mantri ban chukka hoon….” disgusting.


No one talked about security, food and water. All that these people talked are UPA has failed miserably in the past 5 years, NDA is not secular, Left’s ideologies are pretty old etc etc. No good speeches made. Where are the Vajpayees, Nehrus who are known for their oratorical skills. The congress prime ministerial candidate does not want to contest lok sabha. Amazing, it is the people who should elect their prime minister and not the party. I feel its time to amend the constitution and make it compulsory that the Prime Minister should contest Lok Sabha. He is one of the finest economists, a great academician, a great person and I feel he should have led from the front by contesting the lok sabha which he failed to do so. Next comes the NDA prime ministerial candidate who praised Jinnah for secularism, who led the yatra which demolished the babri masjid and who doesn’t know what is happening in the government when he was the home minister. I accept he is a great leader, better than Manmohan Singh when it comes to leadership skills and taking decisions but his past record and his extremism doesn’t support him to be the prime minister. Then the third front who doesn’t know who will be their prime ministerial candidate, no ideologies, no great leader in their front who have qualities of becoming the prime minister. The situation today is such that people are not ready to accept any of these leaders as prime ministers but the irony is no one is better than these people for the top job. Lets wait for the 16th of May and we ll know what is India’s fate.

Hey... Nee Romba Azhaga Iruka.. :)

Yei nee romba azhaga irukke
Yei nee romba azhaga irukke
Romba romba azhga irukke
Kangal noorum marandhum rasikka
Nee romba romba azhaga irukke

Poovin azhago oru naal thaan
Iravin azhago oru maatham
Undhan azhagukku mudivillaye
Athai solla vaarthayaal mudiyalaye

Yei nee romba azhaga irukke
Romba romba azhaga irukke
Mookum muzhiyumaathaan irukke
Nee romba romba azhaga irukke

Kavithai sumakkum noolagham naan
Kannaal ennai purattaathey
Yei nee romba azhaga irukke
Romba romba azhaga irukke
KaNgal nooru marandhum rasikka
Nee romba romba azhaga irukke

This is the title song from the movie “Yei Nee Romba Azhaga Iruka..”. Wow!!!! Wonderful music composed by Sabesh-Murali and beautifully penned by Kabilan. Sneha looks awesome in this song in a blue saree and of course in the whole movie as well. Good movie with a neat screenplay. I really love this.


Poovin azhago oru naal thaan
Iravin azhago oru maatham…”


nice way to describe her beauty. By iravin azhago oru matham he refers the time taken by moon to become new moon from full moon ( its my understanding. Correct me if am wrong)


”Kavithai sumakkum noolagham naan
Kannaal ennai purattaathey....”


beautiful lines describing her beautiful eyes..
