Three Idiots @ Review

Well, I seldom write a movie review and the fact of its excellence made me to write a movie review right after and immediate after watching the same. Verdict for a movie which was loosely based on five point someone, scored a ten-ner and made myself to do a standing ovation and claps. Yeah credit goes to Stunner Man, Hirani… and VV Chopra Himself. Aamir in excellence and Karena, Sharman and Maddy managing with the heights set by Aamir. Bommi My man.


Due to my official work i was to go late for this show and managed tonight, else my show was always First day Night show. Talking about five point someone, the one of Couple of books  i like written by Cult Indian Writers in English (other being anything for u Ma’m by Tushaar Raheja) , was an awesome experience in reading and was on hands of every college-goer … in my days  a hit by itself. Chetan Heroics measured heights.
Well Movie 3 Idiots is not entirely a copy or even we can just say it has inheritance. Hirani and Vidhu proved once again they are Best screen play writers and people who can give their gyan with Comedy romance (not much though) and thriller (not at all).
3I was a gyan on Indian Educational system and comical way of experiencing the bare truth people will make ages to understand, learn is far away. Something In India whose parents run after doctors and engineers, I salute and at least one will change and win. This movie is more of Comical gyan and i liked it and dare not to salute the same. Today’s generation who are going to join college has to learn a lot from this.
Filmy perspective, Best screenplay…which explains why Hirani, VVC, Aamir are hot cakes of Indian cinema. I would in a way say this as sequel to Munna Bhai, a college avatar.
If one could say first half was comical college life, second half was comical lecture. Salute… People like me and my friends who are doing everything to reach our creative goal having one leg in paid job, it pinches hardly in heart.
The movie starts with Maddy getting emergency landing @ Delhi airport faking Heart attack and starts his journey with pant-less Sharman in search of Aamir. Most of Comical adventures were inherited from book itself with gyan from Hirani himself. That’s the truth.
Couple of scenes from book I wished to watch, and i missed, the Key duplicating incident and Hari caught red handed… (Here Aamir gets keys from Karenna herself) and the incident and moreover the loser boy climax watching the convaction from outside tea shop. I really liked  the Manali Ladakh photography,could have been better.
It was emotional , I wasted my life Kinda feeling, when the scene of Prof Elder Daughter giving birth to a baby, with due help by Aamir and his mechanical brilliance in a flooded delhi. I salute the scene and particularly when prof hands him the zero gravity pen.
Well The review shall extend its course after me watching second time and every time i watch it. Must see.

Chennai India: Broken Bridge


This is a picture taken from the broken bridge in adyar, it earlier would connect the adyar with foreshore estate, across the adyar river. This particular bridge has featured in many Tamil movies like Vaali and Ayutha Ezhathu, the ones I’ve noticed the bridge, there are innumerable movies which have been shot on the bridge. During a season of heavy rains, a portion of the bridge was washed away, what stands today ends abruptly at the in the middle of the adyar river. This is one place in Chennai which I enjoy visiting, and frequently visit. Walking up the bridge, sitting at the edge, where it ends abruptly over the Adyar River, enjoying the cool breeze, while standing at the edge, or sitting along the beach just looking into the waves while sitting on the beach sand. Something interesting about the Broken bridge.
The Broken bridge spanning across the Adyar river in Chennai, for long a haunt will finally be mended in the Sydney style. The Government of Tamil Nadu has approved the proposal to replace the Broken pillars and spans of the Bridge. The 1966 built bridge was washed away in a flood in 1977. And now the bridge will be part of the proposed elevated corridor running along the coast from the Lighthouse to Kottivakkam on the East Coast Road. The architecture of the bridge will be based on the design of the Sydney Harbor Bridge, with two reinforced cement concrete pylons on both ends of the bridge and a steel arch running across which would amount to about Rs 32 crores ,says an official. This may take some time to take effect due to its budget and this may also be replaced with any other styles depending on an affordable budget. So, lets wait to see how the Broken bridge running across the Adyar river in Chennai is going to be replaced.


Me

If you think Chennai is a peaceful and safe city at night, you are dreaming. Wake up! you have not seen the night life in this city. The Broken bridge: Do not go to this place after say, 11 at night. It’s a kilometer and half away from Besant Nagar beach, Broken bridge is a famous film shooting spot during day-time. But after the sun disappears this place will become more spookier. You will have to go through the Ollcot Kuppum to reach this place. You might see some romantic couples here in the early evening and some group of youngsters chatting but as it grows darker the place will become absolutely deserted, there will be absolutely no lights, just a bridge that extends into the middle of the backwaters and ends abruptly. The only people you could depend on for help in case of any problem are the fishermen from the Ollcot Kuppum. But chances are that you will never ever get them to hear you when you need help. The local fishermen tell that they hear the sound of a women screaming at night, which is believed to be the ghost of a women who was murdered here some years back. So if you think, you have the nerve to go for the venture. No problem! you can well go!! But I advise you to carry your ID. Will surely help police identify any bodies recovered from the spot next morning.
Let all be fine, for us this place is as sacred, as for the night out we do daily, this is must go place. The breezy beach with foreshore view , I enjoy this place. For me this must be place more than Elliot’s Beach. “Sand bars forming tiny islets. Trees of the Theosophical Society seen at a distance. The landscape has a dreamlike quality. It is like a no man’s land. It’s deliciously deserted.”

Broken Bridge

It’s deserted, unsafe and in a state of total disrepair. But the Broken Bridge in Besant Nagar, which runs over the tidal mouth of the Adyar river, is a visual treat. A Google search on the bridge throws up a chunky volume of work by shutterbug s. And it’s frequently featured as a backdrop in films.
Its desertedness is part of its charm — and also the reason why most of those who are aware of it, keep away. “Cut off and sequestered, the area is believed to be the stomping ground of anti-social elements. It has been in the news for the wrong reasons and is considered unsafe,” “Its landscape has interesting ups and downs and lends itself to off-roading, but we avoid the place fearing trouble.”
