Last night me and the missus finished watching VTV - Vinnai thandi Varuvaya. My wife as a rule makes me read the review of the movie and confirm her the storyline and the ending. Anything other than a happy ending means I have to watch it alone (Which come to think of it,is not a bad thing at all). My mom is also the same. She calls me up from India to check with me some random movie in KTV to find out the ending before watching it. I assure her that the heroine will die due to cancer and the hero will commit suicide out of happiness. Oh the joys of riling your mom.
They both belong to the category of people who think that any movie with a sad movie is not a movie at all. And as this comprises films from Bala, Ameer, Sasikumar, Balaji Sakthivel I have to watch those movies in isolation. For Kaka kaka my mom made me buy the DVD with the alternative ending.
Well we were watching the movie and reached the point where Simbu and Trisha part and the director shows One year and another one year. My wife ever suspicious of Gowatham Menon looked at me coldly and said that Trisha would have died at this point of time and thus the movies title "Vinnai Thandi Varuvaya". Thankfully that did not happen and though the twist at the end was not to her liking I found the ending to be the perfect fit for the movie. The unanswered questions at the end transform a OK movie to a great one. Good show

Going Home
Confirmed at last. April end I am returning to Chennai. Back to family friends choirs. Makes the heart warm all over to return back. I would be landing in chennai at peak summer. Would be curious to see how my son reacts.
I would be missing some of the things here. The daily outings, shopping. Especially shopping at Walmart and Costco. I was never good at shopping and my customary visits to buy clothes would be over in 15 mins. Here on any given sunday we would go to Costco, snack on the samples there browse through all the aisles without buying anything. We would spend at lease a hour and a half. The big carts also means that I can park my son in the cart. Whenever I come back from ofice if the mood was not good we would go to walmart spend an hour there aimlessly, pick up one or two baby food boxes and come. That is one thing which I would miss in Chennai.
However home is where my heart is and right now its set at chennai. Reminds me of one of mark lowrys funny songs about heaven. It can be found here. The lyrics can be found here.
Anyhow Chennai beware. The great one is returning
