The name is Rajinikanth!!

I read this book recently titled – “The name is Rajinikanth.”

It takes you through the life of the man, his upcoming, his entry into the world of cinema et al… The story is nothing unusual… it’s the well known story of rags to riches… it’s also a story of hard work, determination and an attitude to boot…

What’s termed as style when you speak about Rajini is actually his attitude… which is what is being portrayed in the book…

When you think about Rajinikanth, there are a lot of things that come to mind, a lot of those things that made him a favorite with the masses, a lot of those things that they public emulate him for, a lot of those things that are so normal that you wonder why no one else is able to carry them off with that much of panache and élan. Some punch dialogues thrown in here and there, the flicking of the cigar up in the air, the walk and talk, what’s so unusual about all this that makes people go crazy after him, swoon over him and hold him high on a pedestal…

Is it the fact that the masses identify with his appearance and looks?? Is it that people are in awe of the fact that in spite of being so successful he is so humble and unassuming?? Or is the fact that his story is something that’ll inspire every aspiring actor in the country to give it a shot??

When you go to watch a Rajini movie, its best to leave your logic, reasoning and practicality at home! There’s no point trying to interpret how something in that movie could’ve happened… it happened because it’s a Rajini movie… and anything can happen in a Rajini movie. :P that’s the fun of it!! ;-) There was this funny list that was being populated all around the net world as to what all Rajini can do.. And what can happen because of him!! And this is apart from all the funny forwards about how Newton saw Rajini movies and gave up physics…

But all said and done, Rajini is Rajini and no one else can take his place in that position… His Padayappa, Baasha, Thillu Mullu, Annamalai, Arunachalam, Muthu,… everything is a favorite with all people, age, size and status don’t matter!!!

The name is after all RAJINIKANTH.

Moving on.....

And we finally moved…

Days of searching came to an end… Frenetic moments of anxiety have passed… Endless hours of packing, unpacking, and more packing finally came to a standstill…

Will I miss our old place?? Maybe I will… Maybe I won’t… But I will miss the people there for sure!!

The times we had there were good… dealing with stuff on our own; handling the various impromptu things that came up… it was all good… :-)… brings back memories..! A lot of ‘em…

Each and every place in that apartment has seen and felt a lot of things… contentment, depression, joy, sorrow, tears, bliss, pleasure, delight, distress, pain and a whole plethora of emotions…

They say ‘change is the only thing constant in life’… something else comes to mind, - ‘all good things must come to an end’… wonder why I thought of that! Wonder why that particular quote came to mind… what was it that I felt so good about that apartment and why is that there is a tug in my heart when I think of the times I have had there…

Why is it that I never have the courage to spill out my heart to people, and that too; to the ones I have been living with for the past one year… Why is that I could not muster up the courage to tell them that I will miss them, that I will miss Ashu’s out-of-the-blue comments on everything, glen’s philosophical take on everything, the giggling that comes out of nowhere for nothing, the plans that we make for something, the discussion about everything under the sun – no holds barred, I will definitely miss everything about that small abode of ours…

This is probably what they mean by ‘compromise’… this is what they probably mean by ‘moving on’… this is probably what they called ‘letting go’ …

And so a year passes by....

One year at Satyam…!!

One year done and dusted and dealt with!

One year work experience in my resume… :-)

One year of trials & tribulations, wins & losses, joy & sorrow, clarity & uncertainties…. But best of all no regrets!

Little did I know when I joined a year back into this unit called RTLC (Real Time Leadership Centre) in Satyam, that it would be one of the most enriching experiences….

Came in with a lot of doubts, misgivings, qualms in the heart… wondering what this RTLC does, how it would help further my career and how life is going to turn out… Reservations about how I am going to handle Excel, PowerPoint and analysis of which I had no clue about!!! There were even moments on whether I should give it up and go back on bench waiting for an HR opportunity to present itself!! Being a fresher to this world did not help things one bit!!!

But I am so thankful to God that I decided to stick it out… and that in a sense has turned out to be the best decision I have ever taken in my entire life…

And that in return has given the world that I live in a lot more clarity…

A few fresh people I know I will treasure for life…

Some old pals that I have gotten to know better and whom I cherish!!!

And best of all, I discovered the person that I am and that I want to be…!!

Cheers to I ME MYSELF…!! :-)

Why.. Why.. Why.. Why..

Why why why why why why ……..
Why do people have to end up irritating me??? Why can’t they just let me be?
Why do I have to give explanations for everything that I want to do?? Why do I have to justify myself every single instance???
Why can’t I have my own space??
Why do I have to be answerable to ANYONE??....
Why can’t I just have my own life…???!?!?! Why can’t I be independent???? Why can’t I just be myself??? Why can’t I decide what I want to do when I want to do and how I want to do???

Am I a kid??? Am I not 24 years old??? Don’t I have the freaking maturity and the sense to handle my own life….

For heaven’s sake just let me be! Don’t invade my space….

If I don’t want to do something, I simply won’t do it how many ever reasons u give me or whichever way you try to convince me…. If I am not convinced about something don’t expect me to fall for it! I won’t!!!!! That’s as simple as that! Your telling me a hundred times that I am not doing something that you wanted me to do is not going to change anything….!!! I will still only do it when am convinced about the damn thing!!!

Don’t try to lord over me or don’t try to make me understand that it is good for me or that everyone else is doing it or that it is the best thing for me..!!! I won’t accept it..! My ego won’t accept it… and please kindly don’t keep repeating it a 100 times over and again saying that you are just saying that ‘coz you want to make it clear… Saying it once is more than enough… I will keep it in mind…!!! Saying it over and again like a parrot is not going to help either of us! Saying it once and getting an answer from me once is fair enough ‘coz otherwise both of us are going to end up wasting a lot of time which I am not favorable of…!!!

Sheesh…!! I want my space… do I have to put it up on a billboard or stick it on my forehead for people to get the message!!??!?!?!

Happy Birthday!

And so another year has flown by…

Lots of happenings… lots of changes… lots of uncertainty… lots of unsteadiness…lots of conviction… lots of confidence… lots of stability…

Entry of new characters who I thought I would never ever become good friends with… Exit of certain characters I thought would stay for life… Reentry of a few of those characters…

Now it feels like I know where my life is heading…
Now I feel like I have a say in things that matter to me and way it’ll affect my life..!!...
Now it feels like I have taken control of my life and I am solely answerable for what I am doing without anyone else’s intervention…

So if anything is right it’s Pat On Back from me to myself…
And if anything goes wrong its Kick On Ass from me to myself…!!!

Sometimes life isn’t all that you think it is…
Sometimes you have to change and go with the flow…
Sometimes you have to eat your words…
Sometimes you got to repent your deeds…
Sometimes you have to just move on…

Sometimes life boils down to one thing – MOVEMENT…

My Expression My LIFE….

Happy Birthday to me! :-)

Ps: actually my birthday has passed by a few days back….!!! Sorry for the delay in posting!
