Shivaji - Logic illaa Magic Something...

As soon as I got ready to witness the most awaited moment, I started thinking about blogging my view on this movie. Whatever the result is, disappointment or an exciting one.
But I hardly thought of writing a disappointed review for this movie. Because I had faith in Shankar and am more of a director follower than an actor follower (nowadays). Yeah, It was not a disappointing one.. But???? ;)

And I am still hesistated to continue this blog right away. Coz, Watching shankar's movie once isnt just enough to make a comment. (Atleast to me!!!) But I just couldnt wait anymore to be here and let you all know how i felt about the movie. Yeah, let me start on it now.

The movie is not for shankar fans at all. There are very few shankarisms u can see. Like, his richness, his taste on female lead's look, locations, sets etc. There are few more of his kinda scenes which are better to be seen than described. All the hard work he and his team has put in the past 1 1/2 yrs for this movie is just to treat Rajini fans. Which I did not expect at all. Rajini's style and look gets better and better from the beginning of the story to the end. When I say this, you all should be well prepared to see the usual Rajini Introduction song with the same dance steps that you all have seen before. Again, Shankar tries to make it different and the location was too good. Situation was equally bad. The least favourite video moments of the movie is the intro song. Which is not that bad too. There is no shortage for comedy and style. Rajini and Vivek has been a double doze for both comedy and style coz both were humorous. Vivek has been stylish in his own way and also equally funny when he imitates Rajini.

Having criticized about the first song, It wudnt be fair on my part to leave out other songs. All the other songs were the best of shankars. Though we can see the usual shankar's formula in vidoes of the songs, It is still and always enjoyable and makes us to question " How the hell he has done this ?" I did not want to reveal this, but i just cant stop myself. 'Adhiradi' is the best of all and 'Style' is just next to the former. These 2 songs were full of visual effects and style. Just style. Where Rajini fans can enjoy them all untill his next movie release. Shankar did not only bring a teenager out of Rajini and also from us. Yeah, After a long time I enjoyed a movie without any thoughts going on in my mind about the story. Particularly in those 2 songs, Rajini has been shown like an upcoming masala hero, and more like a typical innocent kid. People just cant comment on his looks on those 2 songs. I really dont know whether he is the right man for the story... But he is the only right man for those 2 songs. Each and every moment of the movie has been enjoyed by the crew and they have sculptured a colourful statue without a life called message.

Shankar has disappointed his fans to treat Rajini fans which matters more when it comes to business. No offence meant. Where people expect just entertainment and no logic, This is the best place to land at. Thats why I have captioned this as Logic illa Magic something. But the magic is something very attractive.

I may come back to write more on this movie after few more times of watching. I tried my best not to reveal most of the important scenes. And also tried not to reveal many infos abt characters which are not at all there. :P

Scribbling # 1

Well, My first ever blog. Seriously dunno what to write here. I used to write a lot and keep it to myself and make sure no one can see that. Of course, there are few things that can be shared. So like everyone I also thought this is the best place to write and also share with others.

And now, What am i going to write about? I am very sorry that this is not a happy beginning. There is nothing else in my mind than the incident that happened last night. I realize it is not that easy to write about it very next morning. Still, I have decided to start today and I should write about the same. Yeah, I am also in the same mood of what many other millions of Indian Cricket fans are in now. But I don't like to bash our cricket team by sending stupid SMSs to the so called news channels. Though few are really funny. It was like this " Send Sehwag back home, I would pay the flight ticket " Actually that SMS brought some laughs from me and few other friends who watched the match last night. All these SMSs are seriously of no use to the viewers. Someone is making money of it. Well well, I don't want to deviate from the subject. Of course you can forgive me for deviating, after all this is my first blog. :P.

The main reason for the loss is the decision to bat first after winning toss. Yeah yeah I agree. Many of us knew the reason. But its not that Dravid did not know about the pitch. The mistake was under estimating the opponents and thinking of having a good match practice by batting first. Taking such a hasty decision, the team had to suffer. The best thing is we lost to a test playing nation. We can at least argue and convince ourselves by that. The bitter truth is we lost to a bunch of players whose summed up runs in all the matches they have played will not even be 50% of what sachin has scored. And I always had this soft corner for Sehwag. I always had faith in him. I always argue with my friends and peers that He would be the best on his day. I dunno when that day gonna come for him. Will he be picked for the playing 11 again in this series? Good thing happened was Sehwag picked 2 wickets, both involving Dhoni. You guys must be wondering what good in that. Yeah man, They both were in my yesterday's super selector team. Lol. Dhoni having scored a duck, he would have yielded a negative score for me. Good Sehwag picked 2 wickets and 2 stumpings by Dhoni. Again, I am deviating from the subject. U know why?????? after all I am a debutant.

And after the match, I did not switch of and go to sleep, I waited for the other match to get over, Made sure that Pakistan had lost the match. Ha ha. How silly i am? Its there within every one of us you know? right from our school days. If we flunk in a test, we will convince ourselves by saying " even the next seat guy failed. No Issues. " The funnier part is, the next guy failed in an easier paper. Yeah, They lost against Ireland. Very funny huh? Okay, Serious message to end this first ever blog of mine. Decision to bat first or not has to be taken looking at the pitch and not at the opponents. Bubye.
