Baahubali 2 - my review

I watched baahubali 2 recently. The movie is the conclusion part of baahubali – the beginning. The artists’ selection is really good. They have really dedicated themselves to the characters. I was stunned to watch the stunts and the action sequences. I would like to share the story of this film with all. So here’s the story.
The story features upon Amarendra Baahubali’s life. After defeating the kalakeyas, Amarendra is declared as the new king of the mahishmati and his brother as the commander in chief. Before the coronation, queen mother sivagami asks baahubali and kattappa to take a tour of the kingdom to know about the people and their needs. As they take a tour, baahubali sees the princess of kundalas, Devasena. He instantly falls in love with her. When bhallala deva [Baahubali’s brother] learns about this, he hatches a plot to drive wedge between Amarendra and Sivagami by asking for devasena’s hand in marriage. Sivagami, unaware of Amarendra’s is in love with Devasena, promises Bhallala deva for the marriage.
The queen mother sends a word about the marriage proposal to Devasena. But Devasena harshly rejected the proposal which made Sivagami furious. She ordered Devasena to be brought to mahishmati as a captive. A dacoit like army attacks the kingdom. Amarendra, with the help of Devasena’s cousin kumara varma, defeats them and reveals who he is. He brings Devasena to mahishmati as his future bride.
After this there is a twist when Amarendra has to choose either the throne or Devasena. He chooses Devasena and he becomes the commander-in-chief of mahishmati. Bhallal Deva is crowned as the king. But Amarendra was the king in people’s hearts.
At Devasena's baby shower, Bhalla Deva relieves Amarendra of his duties as Commander-in-chief so that Amarendra can be with his wife. Devasena immediately speaks out against the King's manipulation and the mute inaction of Sivagami. Due to further clashes, Devasena and Amarendra are banished from the Palace. Amarendra and Devasena live happily among the people. Bhallaladeva hatches a plot to convince Sivagami that Amarendra is trying to assassinate him. Sivagami, convinced that Bhallaladeva's life is under threat and open action would result in factions and civil war, orders Kattappa to assassinate Amarendra. Kattappa, bound by his word to serve the Queen, lures Amarendra by feigning he is in trouble, and then stabs him in the back and kills him.
Kattappa then informs the queen about bhallal deva’s treachery. The king ordered to kill the queen mother and Amarendra’s baby. The queen somehow saves the baby and she dies. Devasena is held as a captive for 25 years.
After learning about his past, mahendra baahubali [Baahubali’s son] declares a war with the evil king. At the end, bhallal deva is burned alive and mahendra baahubali is crowned as the king of mahishmati.

There are humorous scenes when baahubali is in disguise at the palace of kundalas. The music mesmerizes everyone who listens to it. I have only seen graphics in animated movies, but I never thought that the graphics used in this film will be really great. They were lively and majestic. I didn’t realize that it was graphics until I saw the note that they gave. This is the best graphical film ever released in India.

Saturdays with BK Uncle

Edit 1 : This is something I wrote a long time ago. repurposing for entertainment purposes. any harm thus caused isn't intentional; it happens to be a byproduct. Nobody knows how old BK Uncle is. Some say he's 60; some say he's awaiting his 80th birthday next month. He's been around for a long time. "Long time" might not seem so long, but for this young flat, it feels like an eternity. Old BK seemed nice; he'd converse with anyone he encountered. The four W's never mattered until they came out of him. People got used to his habits, like any obedient student would in an assembly. Well, most people. My interactions with BK Uncle have been quite amusing on my end and irritating on his. Incidentally, most of my interactions with BK Uncle happen on Saturdays. Probably because that's when I'm home, and I take a stroll in the lobby. Not so long ago, I'd play with my friends in the same lobby—it didn't matter what day of the week it was. Times...

பௌ பௌ… ரெண்டு டீ

டீக்கடை கலாசாரத்தில் தீப்பிடித்து வளர்ந்தவை இரண்டு விஷயங்கள். ஒன்று வீட்டுக்குத் தெரியாமல் பஜ்ஜி சாப்பிடுவது, மற்றொன்று நாய்கள் மேய்வது. போண்டா பஜ்ஜி முதல் போர்பான் பிஸ்கட் வரை பல்சுவைக்கு அடிமையாகிய நாய்கள், நம்மைப் போலவே டீக்கடை நிழலே சொர்க்கம் என்று வாழத்தொடங்கிவிட்டன. “நாயே” என்ற சொல்லுக்கு பொருள்கள் பல என்றாலும், அனைத்தும் திட்டும் அர்த்தங்களே. இன்றோ, ஒரு நாயை “நாய்” என்று சொல்வதே கங்கையில் கரைக்கவேண்டிய பாவம் ஆகிவிட்டது. அதற்குப் பெயர் வைத்து பிறந்த நாள் கொண்டாடியது போக, “ஸ்பா டே” என்று அமர்க்களம் செய்து இன்ஸ்டாக்ராமில் பதிவிடுகிறார்கள். அதைப் பார்த்து கருத்து சொல்பவன் கொடூரமானவனாகிறான். பதில் சொல்லாதவன் மனிதத் தன்மையை இழந்தவனாகிறான். இதையொட்டி, பக்கத்துத் தெருவில் உள்ள டீக்கடையைச் சார்ந்த குறுக்கு சந்து நாய்கள் கட்சியின் தலைவர் பௌ-பௌ வுடன் ஒரு சிறிய உரையாடல். பௌ: பௌ பௌ… அர மணி நேரத்துல மோட்டார் நாய்கள் வந்தால் துரத்த வேண்டிய வேல இருக்கு, கொஞ்சம் சீக்கிரம் முடிச்சிக்கலாமா? ந: ஓ ரைட்டு. கடந்த பத்து வருஷத்துல உங்க ஆளுங்க இந்த ஏரியால இவ்ளோ பழகிட்டாங்களே, நீங்க உங்க வீட்ட மிஸ் பண்ண...

Afterthoughts - YellowFace

 It took me a while to finish this book. Longer than I'd like to admit. Partly because engineering can get exhausting; sometimes all you want to do is sit still and stare into the void. And also because this book allows you to take breaks. Yellowface - by Rebecca F. Kuang Unlike many books that demand emotional stamina, this one pauses. Not every book offers to halt its flavour for your comfort. There are books that get you emotionally invested, and books that slowly get you in the zone. We've all binge-read books, if not series, simply because it lured you into an all-consuming world. Yellowface isn't a lot of things, and it certainly is not bait. It probably isn't something you would find everyone mentioning, and it doesn't leave you with characters to love. But it reminds you, in all gory detail, about the parts of you that'd have inevitably surfaced at times. Every century has had its patron cause. The 19th and early 20th centuries were about women's suf...
