TNEB in major loss

TNEB (tamil nadu electricity board) reported to have made 6000 crore loss. It had 120crore odd profit in 2003 and turned to a bad shape over last 6-7 years.

Power cuts left industries clueless and left a bitter taste in people's mouth.

Additional power procurement by TNEB from all over India created such a huge hole in its packet. But they are sounding helpless and no turn around plan in sight so far.

Units in tamil nadu known for its efficient management. But no more !

Such a sorry state

India has never seen such a sorry state of affairs for the main political parties such as Congress & BJP facing in the hands of regional parties !

BJP got dumped at Orissa, Congress got dumped at UP in pre-poll alliances.... Whether the rise of 3rd front is a myth or not would be known by mid may. Looks like BJP needs a miracle to form the government.

How many of you are ready to face Mayawati as PM?

Impact of Kuthu Songs

Impact of Kuthu Songs

Our TV had conducted a recent study on 4000 people across the people between the age of 10 to 40 on the impact of kuthu songs. We found out, the youth wanted to dance to the kuthu songs in their homes, theatres etc. Where as, the age group of 30 to 40 was little bit different. They were not very appreciative of the music and they claimed they had no choice but to listen and dance to kuthu songs. Every tamil movie dumps people with atleast 3 kuthu songs and teases the listeners over the last 10 years.

People are shying away from emotions as numerous sacrifice, emotional calls given by Mr.Karunanidhi getting ignored by dancing folks.

Tamil Libraries are full of film lyricists

Tamil Libraries are full of film lyricists

Suddenly, tamil libraries are flooded with queries of old books by tamil movie song writers / lyricists.

They are looking for any old poems like thirupaavai, thiruvampaavai, aathichoodi or anything which has simple verses. The whole idea is to use the old poems, add on couple of english rap verse, put some ding-chick beats and call it "new age song".

Some time back, Anjadhey movie used Ovvayyar's Acham Thavir in their promotion of the movie. Now, tamil movie named "TN 09 4777" used aathichoodi and the song turned out to be a hit on FM radio channels. Even, Oscar winner A R Rahman seen playing with ThiruKural with rapper Blazee and voiced out his idea to reach public with such epic work.

But some of the serious writers are wondering whether this move would lead origial, well known, meaningful work would land up in dirts !

Terror Attack on Sri Lankan Cricketers at Lahore

Terror Attack on Sri Lankan Cricketers at Lahore

1972 - Munich incident revisited at Gadaffi Stadium, Lahore. This Shocking incident left cricket fans across the world perplexed about the motive of this entire episode.

How much time it would have taken by terrorists to fire a rocket at Lankan Bus? Why they didn't do it? Is it because they wanted to kidnap them or is it because it is a orchestrated, sympathy move on behalf of Pakistan government?

No one can blame Sri Lanka for touring Pakistan. After all, it was India and Pakistan which toured Sri Lanka in 1996 to show solidarity at the height of political crisis of Lanka. So, it was political decision to send the team to show gratitude.

I still wonder whether Musharaff was many times better than this so called democratic government of pakistan...

Long time back i wrote "http://accessstreet.blogspot.com/2008/09/australias-cricket-tour-to-india-in.html". I still stand by that post and I will not have any regret of postponement of IPL-2.

Senxex outlook for March 09

Stay away from the stock market during March 09. Think about buying when sensex comes around 7000 levels and not before that.
