Weekend with rail sneham and tennis

Yesterday , being the weekend was as usuall a lazy day for us. Got up late dint feel like cooking and made the simplest of all bread upma at 11. 30 A.m . our brunch got overwith that. I sat down on the net to browse my e-mails and check the updates on orkut and face book accounts . After finishing with all that i sat down to check if there are any updates on ippadikku rose last week on tech satish.net. I must say these guys are amazing, i happened to find the old tele serial of KBbeing posted on the net - 'Rail Sneham'. I was struck by nostalgia , i remember the days when the show was aired, i was in my early teens and used to be a great fan of this tele-serial along with a few other masterpeices like suhasinis penn,revathis iravil oru pagal etc..My mom would let me watch this only after i had said my prayers and had finished my home work and studies forthe day.It used to be such an awesome combination of wat to choose and wat to leave those days when Doordarshan was the only choice.
Hurrayyyyyyyy.... once more in my life time i got to watch this serial again. Thanks to www.techsatish.net
I used love the song which come s at the begening of the serial rail sneham and i still do.The lyrics were so good ... As such am abig fan of K.Balachander.Here it goes....
Rail sneham... rail sneham..
mudhalum illadhadhu ,mudivum illadhadhu,
mugame illadhadhu,arimugame illadadhu...
vidhayum illamal nilamum illamal
maramai undavadhu....rail sneham (2)

Vazhkai ingu koncha neram vandha dhooram konja dhooram
sondhamillai endha oorum thevai illai aravaram...
tholil ulla bharam podhum..... nenjil enna veru bharam...
Netru meendum varuvadhillai..Nallai enge theriyavillai...
indru ondru mattume ungal kayil ulladhu...
vazhkai vandhu ungalai vazhthu parrkachonnathu...

mudhalum illadadhu....
wow, as i was listening to this..it took me back to my teens in chennai... i was totally engrossed on to the screen watching this while prem was cribbing about my act.. afterall only chennai'ites know the value of these miniscule joy...

As i am infected with this incessent channel surfing syndrome.. i browsed further to check wats new with ippadikku rose... That woman is awesome , she brings in all the social issues in the limelight last weeks show had a scary topic- its about black magic- mandrigam, oodu... or wat ever you call it... I gathered some guts to watch that show as i usually dont like to hear any negative vibes about anything in general..To confess ihate to watch horror movies and anykind ofsupernatural movies.The show kindled my inquicitiveness, to break my barriers and plunge on to the comp screen onceagain...I did recieve some interesting information which people say with so much conviction...well i've nothing to do with it. If only i had an chance to erase wat i heard from the show , it would be a blesssing ....
I particularly like the ones she did with eunuchs , a thought provoking one and the reality with divorce cases.She also brought the case of Anand john an NRI fashion designer who has been caged and chained in the US jail , because of sex related allegations made against him. The saddest part is that they are not letting him prove his point..which is the highly atrocious as for me.
Does the so called promised land made of immigrants hold any good any more?i honestly feel that if not for anything.,they must atleast hear his case...may god be with him if hes genuine..
Anyways....i also watched isai kudumbam,just to see krish performing... krish of june ponal fame has definitely got magic in his voice,but need to go a long way rendering some old songs and technically difficult songs.. I understand where he comes from,with just passion for music and acting he's come this far...With a little more efforts he will surely prove his worth . All the best Krish!!
It was about time for me to turn off the comp and sit in front of the TV screen to watch the grand finale of wimbeldon tournament. Two of my recent favourite players Rafel Nadal and Roger federer were facing each other...
It was such a thrilling match , though i must admit that i honestly wanted nadal to win this time, for i felt he really really needed it that any one..Though Prem was an ardent fan of federer whom he says , is a technical genius in playing tennis.We were like the north and the south pole yesterday cheering for our respective hearthrobs in tennis,sipping piping hot chai and enjoying the breezy weather outside .Atlast with all due respects to Federer,i was so damn happy for Nadal to see him biting the wimbeldon cup in his unique fashion.I've alwayz felt that 22 year old kid needs to taste the success of wimbelon this time.. Though federer is a technical genius in playing tennis... i really like the way Nadal keeps his water bottle in a particular way during every match and pulling his shorts before every serve.He's quite naive?? is'nt he??I feel he has some kind of raw magnetism ...
i was looking forward to listen to Borg saying something after the finals about the game... perhaps i guess i had missed it or they dint show his speech.. SAD:-((
One of the commentators said some thing which according to me was just not right , especially during the game point.. saying that ' Five times wimbeldon champion is now at the mercy of Nadal' - As such the players would have their own tensions and stress over and above that to say something like this ,one should be a nut of the first order.. what happened to your so called british politeness and mannerisms????I guess that guy should be fired for making such insensitive comments.... Bad recruit!!!
You just cant say obvious things like the blood gushing thro' the veins for the players, any layman would be able to say that you moron....
Anywayz....
My heart goes out to federer and would want to wish him the very best to take over the french open the next year....lets wait and watch...

Keep Smiling untill agian,
Adi'os hasta luego
chao,
:-))
