Raavanan

Law - "The principles and regulations established in a community by some authority. " We have all gone through all these definitions ,phrases & various acts of law from school an umpteen number of times but more often than not these lines become just lines in our society. All these so called laws are like a tissue paper in a restroom which are used at will & when necessary especially by the authorities who are responsible for enforcing them. And finally its the aam aadmi (common man) who pays the price in this puppet show called democracy where the judicial society are well above the reaches of the so-called law. PLOT : " A local village rebel kidnaps the wife of a police officer to prove a point that no one's above the laws of justice but things take a drastic turn when he decides to kill her. " First things first ,With Raavanan Mani Ratnam has threaded on a path that is well known here in India , Ramayana is a well known epic among indi...

Raavan Movie Review

Mani Ratnam the man with a midas touch has once again proven his worth when it means business. The movie which is touted as the most awaited film of the year is a typical Mani Ratnam film. The movie has been titled "Raavan" for the only fact that it is a storyline which is loosely based on the epic Ramayana. In fact on the flip-side the movie can also be termed as Mani Ratnam's Ramayan. The movie is special on so many counts and to begin with the scale at which the film is made is mind boggling followed by the ordeal the actors had to face while shooting and also it marks the Bollywood debut of Tamil actor Vikram and actress Priyamani. Though the story might be loosely based on Ramayan it is highly stupid to compare the movie with the epic for the reason that "Raavan" is a modern day happening story which has all elements of being an absolute entertainer that would cater to the present generation masses. If as a viewer if you intend to compare it to the epic the...

Patricia Narayan - FICCI Woman Entrepreneur of the Year

She started her career 30 years ago as an entrepreneur, selling eateries from a mobile cart on the Marina beach amidst all odds -- battling a failed marriage, coping with her husband, a multiple addict, and taking care of two kids. Today, she has overcome the hurdles and owns a chain of restaurants. An entrepreneur by accident I was always interested in cooking and passionate about trying out new dishes. But, the thought of becoming a business woman never came to my mind at all as I do not come from a business family. Both my parents were government servants. But my marriage changed everything. Both the families opposed the marriage vehemently as my husband belonged to the Brahmin community; unfortunately my marriage did not work out as my husband was addicted to alcohol, drugs, etc. I could not bring him out of the addiction. As a young woman, I did not know how to cope with this and I was getting beaten up everyday. Though my father, a very conservative Christian never forgave me...

We have been told about certain morals & proverbs in our childhood days & some of them do play a vital role in our daily lives too. "Unity is Strength" ,this proverb is one which we all will remember easily but how much of strength can a united set of people acquire ?? Hmmm may be this film could provide us with the answer for that PLOT : " The events taking place before & during the 1995 Rugby World Cup in the newly elected anti-apartheid South Africa government headed by President Nelson Mandela . " Clint Eastwood is one of the main reasons i watched this film ,i was so very impressed with his works in Flags of Our Fathers & Letters from Iwo Jima The director in him has yet again proved his calibre with this film Invictus . The film portrays the initial stages of the newly formed government in South Africa headed by Nelson Mandela & the problems that plagued his government then. The racial remarks in the films are effectivel...

Mystery behind the Black Box

The "black box" is a generic term for two recording devices carried aboard commercial airliners. The Flight Data Recorder (FDR) records a variety of parameters related to the operation and flight characteristics of the plane. The Cockpit Voice Recorder (CVR) records the voices of the flight crew, engine noise, and any other sounds in the cockpit. All large commercial airliners and certain varieties of smaller commercial, corporate, and private aircraft are required by law to carry one or both of these boxes, which generally cost between $10,000 and $15,000 apiece. The data these devices provide is often invaluable to experts investigating the events leading up to an accident. The recovery of the boxes is one of the highest priorities in any mishap investigation, second only to locating survivors or recovering the remains of victims. FDR information is also often used to study other aviation safety issues, engine performance, and to identify potential maintenance issues. ...
