Drishyam 2

•  People I have watched Drishyam 2 Malyalam movie with English subtitles movie on Amazon Prime Video.
• It is too good movie.
• Movie is so good that 3 hours pass just like that.
• You never feel that those three hours are a waste.
• I for one have not seen Malyalam version of Drishyam.
• I have seen the Hindi version of Ajay Devgan.
• But since I have seen the Hindi version I could relate to the Second part even if it was in Malyalam.
• I loved acting and the actors.
• The actors are so good that I can still recollect their faces though I saw the movie only once.
• Mohanlal is a real hero compared to "artificial heroes" we see around.
• All actors have done tremendous job.
• You see the movie in its entirety and then you feel that Mohanlal is like a ghost whom the cops are chasing.
• Though he is there he is not relly there.
• He has kept Plan B and Plan C and perhaps even Plan D in place.
  
• He is watching their moves and is several feet forward when looking out for them.
• He is always on his guard and that is his punishment.
• Then you as a viewer think what they have shown in the movie is just not possible and you just dismiss it.
• You think maybe nobody can see Mohanlal at that time of the day and night.
• Maybe you think police would not pursue the case this diligently.
• Then you may feel Mohanlal will do things differently if something different happened.
• But in the end you have to appreciate that the movie is good even if it is just a movie.
  

BJP is a Disaster

• People after observing the state of the country for several years now, I must say that BJP is a Disaster for this country of India.
• Countries around the world suffer from disasters from time to time.
• Japan suffers from earthquakes and typhoons.
• New Zealand from Earthquakes.
• Australia from wildfires and flooding.
• Iran and Pakistan and Afghanistan from earthquake and floods from time to time.
• BJP is such a kind of disaster for India.
• It is a tragedy for India that a party like BJP is in power and continues to usurp power.
• BJP is a man made disaster for country like India.
• I am inclined to compare it to Philippines which is also a disaster prone area.
• There are storms and flooding and cyclones in Phillipines more often than not.
• Thus BJP is such a kind of disaster which has befallen India.
• I do not care if I go to jail or I am persecuted for my views.
• I will say again and again BJP is a disaster for India.
• BJP is doing tremendous damage to India.
• India may take decades to recover from this BJP disaster.
• If India recovers at all.
• Else it would be the end of India as we know it.
• End of the country we know and love and adore.
• Ironic is if we oppose BJP we are made to look as though we are opposing India and branded anti-national.
• That is wrong and that is the fault of BJP ruled India.
• I am truly sad for this disaster that has befallen India and that is BJP disaster.
  

White Hair Chasing

• The title of this post is "White Hair Chasing" because people as we age white people would creep into us.
• Rather white hair would emerge from us.
• Whether it is beard or head.
• If you keep long hair or beard you just cannot avoid the "whiteness".
• You just cannot avoid it.
  
• Personally I do not like white hair.
• My experiment with not shaving started from May 2013 when I was already approaching 36 years.
• When Jesus died he was about 35 approximately.
• My point here is boys will start growing beard after 16-17 and after 35-36 their beard would be white.
• There may be little plus and minus here and there.
• But my view is that people have only a little time of having "natural black beard" and they should not lose the chance of "sporting a beard" because life is short, 20 years will pass like a in a jiffy.
• If they keep shaving till they reach 35 or 40 they will never get the chance to sport a "natural colour beard" and will have to apply colour and keep it short.
  
• So initially I had black beard then in few months I began to grow white beard.
• Then I began to apply colour to the beard.
• It was an on and off affair. sometimes I would shave, sometimes I would let the beard flow but I would trim it and very few times I have applied colour.
  
• But now I am beginning to reapplying colour.
• Here is the photo
  
  
  
  
• My choice of colour is Garnier Colour Naturals (Natural Black).
• I apply it near the chin area as that area is first to appear bad when white hair flows.
  
• But the beard still grows.
• It means that white hair comes out of the beard.
• The colour cannot prevent new hair coming which is white anyways.
• The roots of the beard are white.
• It is like you cannot fight nature.
• Man will face defeat with nature.
• You can shave. 
• But my experience if you shave there are nicks and cuts if the blade is not nice or becomes old. 
• Many times it may leave a scar which gets exposed as you keep yourself clean shaven only as there is no hair to hide the scar.
• Shaving is fine till you do it as a matter of compulsion due to job requirements and the like.
• Else it is a drag and there is also skin irritation which may force you to apply after shave lotion and/or skin cream or lotions.
  
• Nature which means "natural thing" means that which is supposed to happen anyways.
• The most natural thing is death but man will never accept that he will die ultimately.
• He will do all things but avoid the question of death.
• We know Jesus is always being portrayed as having black beard.
• But some images of God portray him as having white beard.
• My point is that if you have a small beard it is easy to manage and you can trim it and keep it short and then apply color to it and repeat the process over and over to infinity which is not the case.
• People lives are finite.
• It is either till you are capable to do and you are "alive", that is the most important factor.
• You should be "able to do it while there is life".
• But if you keep long beard and hair it just shows.
• You cannot hide the whiteness.
• Because you just cannot apply colour to "so much stuff" on your face or head. 
• In this case this whiteness is a bane and like a disease which everyone suffers or will suffer.
• Blackness is good in this case.
  
• This "whiteness" shows you are human and you will die ultimately.
• So the concept of God having white hair just does not arise.
• Like Professor Zakir Naik has said, God cannot be compared to human or anything represented by any material thing appearing on this planet Earth.
• God is bigger than all of us.
• You either believe in God or you don't.
• But if you believe in God my request is please don't demean God by making God human or comparing to a human.
  

Lootcase

• Looks like Hotstar auto renewed its subscription and now I am tied to Hotstar for 1 more year.
• So I watched movie Lootcase on the App.
• I liked the movie.
• Good performances by all in the movie.
• Movie is a non stop comedy ride.
• Worth watching.
• Kunal Khemu and Ranvir Shourey among others have done superb performance.
• All actors have done good job.
  

Madam Chief Minister, The Little Things, Misbehaviour

 Watched three movies as mentioned above.

Madam Chief Minister

• This movie was watched at PVR Vega City Mall at Bannerghatta Road.
• I liked the movie.
• I felt the movie was promising but then it crash lands.
• I mean the movie is made under Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath patronage what can you expect.
• They have trashed the character of Madam Chief Minister and people die left right center.
• Also they have made the female Chief Minister as a dubious character who in the ends keeps her husband in a vegetative state for the sake of power.
• So, they have trashed women leaders as well.
• What can you expect of BJP and RSS not only they are anti caste but anti women as well.
• Movie is okay as no movies are coming and this movie gives good entertainment.
• Worth watching once at least.
  

The Little Things

• This movie was watched at PVR Forum Mall.
• You see this movie and feel there was never a pandemic in the first place.
• I will say Covid 19 was an "artificial manufactured news of a pandemic" just to get rid of Real Donald Trump.
• And now Donald Trump is gone as President, things are back to normal or so it seems.
• But Trump never said the Pandemic was fake. What he kept repeating was "China Virus" but that could not save him as well.
• Movie is worth watching.
• But when Jared Leto was innocent why did he have to die I could not understand.
  

Misbehaviour

• This movie was watched at PVR Vega City.
• I liked the movie.
• It is worth watching.
• You can review from any website and I believe the reviews are genuine.
• But Greg Kinnear role is exaggerated. He does not have that big role in the movie as is made out from the trailer.
  

Master, Monster Hunter

• Watched the movies as mentioned above in the screens.

Master

• This movie Tamil version with subtitles was watched on Amazon Prime Video.
• I must say the movie is full of great performances.
• You know the villian is all evil but still you fall in love with the character.
• More than halfway into the movie you see Vijay the hero taking action on the shopkeepers who are supplying free goodies to the villians people.
• While watching those scenes I thought only in Tamil movie we can see something like that.
• I mean what is the fault of the shopkeepers. They are just trying to be part of the system which always existed.
• Why attack them.
• But when the villian takes action on the heroes close colleagues you get a sense why the villian is dangerous and needs to be eliminated.
• Thus the Director wants to eliminate the guilt on the viewers minds.
• Movie is worth watching according to me.
  

Monster Hunter

• This movie was watched on the big screen at Cinepolis, SJR Mail, Bannerghatta Road.
• I liked the movie.
• The direction of the movie is superb.
• Part of the job of the Director is to make the audience believe that what he is showing is actually happening.
• The stuff viewers see should appear real.
• Whether it is dragons or huge spiders crawling out of narrow holes.
  
• This movie has Chinese producers and generally speaking Chinese and Russian and Iranian people are against Americans.
• I mean they have respect and appreciate US military but still they will show them taking a beating.
• This movie shows that and US military battling monsters from a parallel universe but no so successfully.
• Tony Jaa is a real monster hunter. 
• So what if Tony Jaa is Thai, he is Asian and Chinese will definitely make Asian as hero.
  

Taandav

•  Watched this web series "Taandav" on Amazon Prime Video.
• I feel the series was just getting "warmed up" much like Saif Ali Khan in the last episode of the series.
• Then there was outcry and present ruling Govt. stepped in to play "spoilsport", now I feel the series will have sequels but they will be more or less 'under scrutiny'.
• Don't expect more fireworks from the series anymore.
• As more famous people are involved, they may have to become more "compliant" if not toeing the Govt line fully.
• But series is worth watching anyways.
• It keeps you engrossed as to "what is next".
