Chennai 600028

This is a recent Tamil movie which i watched and got impressed very much.I have always beeen a fan of teen movies or movies which says abt the life of youngsters.i like american pie,euro trip,gal nxt door and movies like dat.Its too far from a teen life of an Indian but still loved watching them.This movie "Chennai 600028" has come as a fresh whiff of air.Its a very real and simple teen movie.

Its a bout a group of guys who play street cricket in a particular area in chennai.The bonding they share and the emotions they go through and changes that impact.All things happening is described very truly.The casting is excellent with almost 80 % crew being debutants.So they act without acting(mean overacting avoided).Kudos to the director for the movies and the producer for supporting the director.

Aayirathil Oruvan (Tamil 2010)-Truly one in a thousand

I feel goosebumps while writing a review about this movie.Such has been the impact of this magnum opus in Tamil Cinema Standards directed by one of my favourite directors Selvaraghavan. Amazing,Superb,Fantabulous,Brilliant,Out of the world i guess if i had the choice i will just keep googling for adjectives. I believe for first time in the history of Tamil Cinema a movie has touched upon a theme which has left so many historians and people who have read about history flabbergasted.I personally have read history much earlier and still had the same puzzle for this question.Many learned scholars of history are still to come up witha theory about "How the great Chola Dynasty which at its peak had territories that included 70 % of India,Ceylon,Far East suddenly vanished into thin air?".There seems to be no descendent of the dynasty.It is this question Mr.Selvaraghavan attempts to answer.I may not be a learned film critic,but in my view he has done great justice to his attempt back

Meyyazhagan. I did not notice about this movie untill my mother bombarded our family whatsapp group with youtube videos on this movie related interviews. She mentioned in our group in chat "Vijay!we have to definitely watch this movie.This is set in Thanjavur.They are showing Needamangalam." My mother rarely feels excited about movies.This time she felt because it was about Tanjavur. So immediatley I booked tickets for 2nd day itself as my brother was also in India for a meeting. I watched the 3 hour movie and felt very  moved.It was very very relatable to me.My mother side is from a village near Kovilvenni.This place is prominently mentioned and becomes a key part of the movie.Its where the fiercesome war between Cholas and Cheras were fought and referred to as Venniparanthalai.I was born in a town Ammapet one stop before Kovilvenni and spent many of my summer holidays in my mothers village.  While watching the movie we were pleasantly surprised not just Needaman

The Village

well you guys must have seen the movie called "The Vilage" directed by Manoj K Shyamalan.I am a great fan of Shyamalan's work.I have seen all his feature films save "Lady in the water".Of all the films he has done i like "The Village" the most.Ya i know that u wud be shocked coz its one of the most underrated works. I guess its mainly because most of them were not able to understand the "The Village"story.Its a story which has been daringly concieved.Its close to my heart because I have always felt myself if something like this can happen. It looks like a period story which it is not.Thats the beauty of the story.The village is a place which consists of a few number of families.They don go beyond their village coz they are of afraid "Those they dont speak off".Its a superb setting for a mystery movie.And everybody lives happily untill the Hero is stabbed and the medicine has to come from outside the village.The blind heroine takes
