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.

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".

Baaghi 3

  • Watched this movie Baaghi 3 on Hotstar.
  • Movie is shot in Serbia but they have made it as Syria.
  • Movie deals with human trafficking for becoming human bombs.
  • It would have been better if the movie would have dealt with just human trafficking.
  • Rather than becoming suicide bombers just human trafficking would have been enough.
  • Why would some people take people from India Pakistan Nepal to make them human bombs.
  • Doesn't make sense.
  • Are there not people in their own countries to become human bombs?
  • Also towards the end credits it shows the movie is a copy of "Vettai" Tamil/Telugu movie.
  • Coming back to action. Mind blowing action is shown in the movie.
  • I will say Tiger Shroff does not need to do Rambo First Blood movie.
  • As he has several movies where the action level is full 100 times what you may see in a traditional family Hindi movie.
  • Do not try to get a sense of action. 
  • Just leave your brain outside the theatre.
  • But lucky for me I watched it on Hotstar. 
  • But still it may prove to be waste of your precious time.
  • I could afford the time and have no regrets. 
  • Movie is okay for a one time watch.

Bolo Hau

  • Watched this movie "Bolo Hau" means "Say Yes" is Deccani language at PVR Vega City Mall.
  • I liked the movie. Worth watching once.
  • Movie is full of Hyderabad dialect or Deccani Urdu.
  • Movie deals with how the women folk are forced to marry according to family wishes and bury their love lives forever.
  • Family sees status and background (caste and family) before marriage and that is a fact wherever the region lies in India or Indian sub continent.
  • In the movie twist happens due to Gullu Dada or Gullu Baba who does "palti" or flip flop and works for love.
  • But in reality it may not happen and the world would be full of people whose love stories have come crashing down and remain unfulfilled.
