Some ads I saw recently...

Finance company funda 1) 0ne antique coin = 2 kuchi ice (where is the rest, you wonder?)




What in the wide world is this guy doing? (P.S. I can understand him being penniless in Hollywood, but if Visa makes you get fits, I rather do without it)




I do not understand who is dumb here, the kids and the mums in the ad, the ad makers or us watching this?

Turning on a stadium lights instantly and turning them around with the turn of a faucet!!! Thought kids were much smarter than this today, if they wanted Bournvita why not make it themselves or go buy a cup they have more weekly pocket money than I did for a whole year in my half pant days.




I am an avid biker and have clocked around 80kms on my bike, whoever made this ad is no biker and is off his edge. A stupid ad if there was one for bikes. Disclaimers be damned this ad is a sure fire accident causer.





As with more from its stable, these ads are another brainless attack on our senses, are women so ...

    now a days in ad fields lot of new faces with cranky ideas are deciding on the ads.. the last ad is one classical example.. some graphic specialist and some loser client end personnel has agreed for such ad..


    the first ad reminded me of ramalinga raju.. satyam is giving heart ache's to three cousins of mine.. waiting....

    the second ad.. see the number of places the ad team has gone to shoot this ad.. very costly ad indeed and they would have reaped in much money...

    the stadium ad shows us cclearly that creativity is in the hands of kids who dont understand the word...

    loved the post

    About the first ad, my thoughts exactly. When i was watched it at home, i was thinking this should teach people not to trust finance guys...

This was a crude translation of a proverb that comedian Karunas (as pointed out by Chriz ) made famous in one movie. The Tamil original runs thus, “Kazhutha ketta, kutti suvaru” so you have the translation. I heard that line somewhere and I wondered especially having heard the translation as to what could have been the origin of the proverb. Any ideas? PS: I Googled it and did find something.

Po poi velaya paaru...

Silly Hindians, not knowing & not using are 2 different things. You don't know that many here know Hindi, you only know that we choose not to use Hindi, because it's our choice. Frankly it’s none of your business, what we wear or eat or speak. There is a lot of Hindi everywhere in Tamilnadu and often many are forced to use Hindi to communicate to the staff. If you observe closely there are many non native workers in Tamilnadu in the service industry. While many other states may have a welcoming attitude to people from other states who take up local jobs Tamilnadu has always welcomed them. Chennai or Madras has always been vaazha vaikkum Chennai, meaning it gives room for people to earn their bread in their chosen field. We still have Chinese dentists (the last few sadly) who don’t speak Mandarin here but Tamil to their patients in their clinics near Flower bazaar, Chennai. The supervisors of many service industries from shops, security service to hotels give instruc

Battle of the movies - Annaathe Vs Jailer

  I watched Jailer yesterday and strangely my mind went back to Annaathe and I found that there are not too many dissimilarities in the two. For starters both are helmed by super star fan boys and who brought their adulation to the silver screen with varying levels of success. Secondly both movies can be clearly separated into two halves and both halves were significantly different. There are also few others I picked up so listing below my score card for the same.   1.       Title Both movies revolve around their titles and Annaathe was easier to understand, a local big man is called such and it is prevalent throughout the movie. In Jailer it comes to the fore only in a small and actually weak flash back. Annaathe – 1 Jailer – 0   2.      Family relationship bond Both movies were built on a family connect. Despite the cringe daughter age sister and the melodrama, the brother sister bonding was the high light of the first half. Strangely in the plan to show the super star
