Thappad maaro, Pappad khao ! Gussa chodo, Khel mein dikhao !!


The last thing you'd like to see in Indian cricket is people slapping each other because they ended up losing.
IPL by itself is one big row and creating another is none other than bhajji.
Just a day or two before i was surprised and glad to see harbhajan belting muthiah muralitharan. & the duel between them was entertaining and exciting.
But a day later the gladness is lost.
You see the 'obnoxious weed' hitting at a 'small boy'. Sreesanth maybe 20+ but has the mental age of not more than 15. Instead of showing his prowess at S.Sree, bhajji could have shown it against dhoni or yuvraj singh. We could have had the opportunity to witness a boxing match or rather a Wrestling match along with the cricket match and people who are paid in crores would'nt complain of giving the audience a bit more entertainment.
After you see the 'short-tempered' bhajji, you see the 'wily' bhajji. He now knows that he has to make it up with the media et al. So he starts calling S.Sree his 'little bro'. & sreesanth is indeed one 'little boy'. He forgets the incident just like how a 8th grader would forget and he becomes 'friendz' with bhajji.

Bhajji losing 3 crores as a result is actually good. The reason is that he is 'not going to do it again'.
Indians went by bhajji's side when he had a tumultous experience with the australians. Next time it will not happen. Even if he is going to utter a 'teri maa ki' its going to be 'monkey' and 'onion' bhajji knows this better than me or you :-)

India is my country.


When a group of people are called together to discuss a common problem, an agenda would be a wise decision. The moderator of the group would be wise in getting the points beforehand to ensure that the 'dough is smooth'.
But what happened in the grand ensemble of kollywood stars for the 'hoganekkal issue' was exactly the other way.
From unknown actors to well-known actors, everyone had their chance with the 'mike' and anyone could say anything !
We had a few people trying to maintain 'secularism' , a few people going over the top with remarks which would probably end only in more violence and a few people trying to establish their 'tamil identity'.
When satyaraj vented his anger, all rumours over his 'verbal' denial of the villain's role for a rajni film seemed true. His speech this day appeared to be a volcanic eruption of his agony that he could'nt outsmart the 'badshah' of tamil cinema.
Rajni's position was and always has been difficult. But this man definitely seems to be goodish in nature. You feel sorry for him whenever he is attacked verbally by people. Have one look at his face and then you realise.
I happened to read this in another blog. When satyaraj mentioned and bragged about MGR's not touching a drop of water in a kannadiga's house; he probably forgot that all food needs water to be made. All this is unwanted speech.
Well, onething is sure. satyaraj's next movie will run well if he capitalises on this issue in that movie.
If only things were organised and people clearly spell out what they exactly need to target it would have served a good purpose.
Everyone in the scorching sun knew that this whole hogenakkal issue is because we have elections coming shortly in karnataka.
So this was'nt a big deal really. People use such meetings to lash out at each other and this look silly to people who understand the background of such events.
So what was all this issue about ? Water which rightfully belongs to tamilnadu is not given to them. Water schemes are not allowed to be developed. Politically, tamil cinema and tamil channels are targetted in Karnataka. You dont have any kannada movies running in tamilnadu otherwise even tamil groups would have given similiar replies in retaliation. So this is no big deal.
Tamils living in karnataka and kannadigas living in tamilnadu are the only unfortunate victims in this political drama. Wake up India !
