Questions and scribbles....

sometimes i dont understand why people do certain things... why they act cranky... why they try to repel other people... why they have a wall around them that spells "stay away from me" in big letters. when there's two people who love each other and want to do everything for each other, is it fair to keep the other person in the dark about what ur truly feeling? u love, live, and see each other every single hour of the day... you think about the other person even in the few minutes that you're not together... u've crossed those stages of uncertainty and hesitation wondering if this is the right person, and whether u will stay together forever... and u've been with each other for so long that u just know that things r going to be the way they are today - perfect.

u know all that. and suddenly one day when the other person goes into a shell, wanting to be away.. wanting to stay alone or aloof... its confusing. because u dont know whether to understand it and accept it, or kill urself wondering why. accept it, cuz sometimes u feel the same way too... u have this satiated feeling that "hey we aren't married yet... why are we so much into each other... it's getting a little sticky.." and u try to push urself away in subtle ways... doing ur own thing... disagreeing to things u have never fought on till then... ur scared that ur losing urself... ur having so much fun loving this person that u didn't see that ur own self kind of walked out the door sometime back.... then suddenly u realize it.. and u want it back...

and so u go do all these crazy things... and ur better half is wondering what the hell went wrong.

Jillunu oru kaadhal... sizzling indeed!

Finally got muh hands on a copy of "Jillunu oru kaadhal" this weekend at Madras. Apart from the instant ooh factor caused by Surya's pic on the front, and ARR's pic on the back (sigh again!)... the "red red red" theme of the cover was really cool..

ok.. I haven't seen any of the trailors... but I have seen the picture shots from the various email fwds that have been doing the rounds for the past (4??) months..

New York nagaram is my favorite in this movie... the perfect song for just closing your eyes for a couple of minutes when you've had your daily share of staring at the blue screen... or driving the car alone on a rainy night... the song leaves you with such a warm feeling... like good tiramisu... :-)

Next comes Munbe vaa... with silky voices that just glide past... this song is such a treat to the ears... I hope this is a Jothika song, although it looks like it's gonna be a Bhoomika song :-) I'd love to play this song while cooking something for dinner... it's the kind of song that will make you think whatever you're doing is magic *grin!*

Majaa majaa is a very sensual song... I'm guessing the video will have a lot of teasing and playing hard-to-get... at least that's what the voices do... lovely number...

Marisam is where the eyes-closed-and-forget-about-the-rest-of-the-world feeling of the album changes... I like the foot tapping beats of this song... and the way it ends... like a salsa number... really cool song :-)

Jillunu oru kaadhal reminds me of men in black tuxedos and top hats and walking sticks doing that really smart, smooth dance in the 60's. a great number for some jiving... dancing.... and basically having fun... wonder how the video for this song would be... hope it's not in the title track...

Just because I put Ammi mithichaachu here does not mean I did not enjoy it... especially loved the way it starts... one traditional song in an otherwise "world appeal" album...

On the overall, all the songs in this movie are very refreshing... they have the typical ARR stamp - so fresh that you can never predict a pattern or say "Oh he did that last time.."

Can't wait for the movie to release... and the two hotties to get married... sigh! How can they be so cute together?
