Thaandavam - Fails to Entertain

What to expect: Beautiful locales and gorgeous looking Anushka and Amy Jackson

Highlights of the movie: Nothing in particular

Story: Shiva (Vikram) is a RAW agent who follows the trail of the bad guys to London from India. In London things change drastically that it changes Shiva’s world upside down. What he does to avenge the loss that he has suffered forms the crux of the story.

Why Should you see it: There is nothing that attractive in the film that actually pulls you to the theatre. The beautiful locales of London is well shot by Nirav Shah.

Drawbacks in the movie: An absolutely boring screenplay that even Vikram’s star power couldn’t help the film to be interesting. There are lots of scenes where logic has been defied and the ending looks very huffed up.

The Team: Story, Screenplay, Dialogues and Directon – A L Vijay, Music – G V Prakash Kumar, Cinematography – Nirav Shah, Editing – Anthony, Producers – Ronnie Screwala & Siddharth Roy Kapoor

Cast: Vikram, Anushka, Amy Jackson, Santhanam, Jagapathi Babu, Nasser, Saranya, M S Bhaskar, Lakshmi Rai

Duration : 2 hours and 45 minutes

Keepwrite Verdict: Thaandavam is a dull and boring film.

Encourage Employees to Learn by Sharing Your Own Growth

As a manager, it’s your job to make sure everyone on your team keeps learning. But beyond encouraging people to take classes and go to conferences, how do you do it? A good starting point is to talk about your own development. When managers open up about their personal areas for improvement, it becomes more acceptable for everyone else to do the same. Ask yourself these questions, and share the answers with your team: “What areas do I need to grow the most in? What insights have I found helpful in accomplishing these goals?” And when you come back from a workshop or training, don’t resort to the typical “It was interesting” summary — be specific. For example, you might say, “I thought I was a good listener, but now I can see that this is a growth area for me. The training showed me new ways to interact with others, and although they aren’t necessarily comfortable for me, I’m going to try them out.” Adapted from " Make Sure Everyone on Your Team Sees Learning as Part of Their Job ,...

The Solution to a Tough Problem Isn’t to Overthink It

We all like to consider ourselves smart, but raw intelligence isn’t everything. When we get stuck on a problem, sometimes it’s because we’re overthinking it. Pay attention to when focused thinking isn’t getting you anywhere; perhaps it has turned into obsessing over the same answers or approaches. Consider whether experimenting with a new strategy or talking ideas through with others might be more likely to result in success. Take breaks to let your brain relax and get unstuck. Expand your range of skills for reaching insights and coming up with new ideas; don’t be someone who sees every problem as a nail because your only tool is a hammer. And when you do find yourself ruminating, disrupt it by doing a few minutes of an absorbing activity, such as a puzzle. This can be a surprisingly effective way to break your brain out of a rut.
