My Dream Jobs!

Found this cool concept from my close pal Munaf's blog (refer blogs i follow)and decided to let people know what I really like to do for a living. In the order of priority...

1. DIRECTION: LIGHTS CAMERA ACTION CUT... Movies somehow became a passion to me since my childhood and I consider myself a fanatic. Justification: Everyone I know doesn't like to go to a theater alone and they would rather watch the movie later whereas the probability of finding me alone at a theater is 0.7 (don't sue me if its a bit more or less). You can also find out from any of my friends, the level of involvement from my side while watching a movie :). I consider myself having a good taste(everyone does about themselves ;)) and the long hours of discussion with Rakesh, again a close pal from school, and PVK, my opposite room in college, made me fall in love with the profession. I wrote two full length stories (simple ones) which obviously I wont disclose (you know the patent and all :D). Recently, I directed an advertisement for a project in college on a mobile. The main character, Leela Krishna(college mate), complained that I was too demanding on every detail and compared me to James Cameron (obviously for fun) :D (donno when he worked with Leela :D). So, that's my first choice career and I hope to direct at some point of my life (another reason for you to hang on to me).

2. EDITING: F.R.I.E.N.D.S is my favorite TV series and as soon as I completed watching the last episode, due to the connection with the series, which I saw day and night at a stretch, I downloaded the making video of an episode. It was an awesome video and apart from other departments, like the art, sound etc., the one that really impressed me was the editing department. A very good movie can irritate you if the editor doesn't choose the shots right. It takes patience but its wonderful. You get to decide what the audience view.

3. ENTREPRENEUR: The one with all the risk involved. Who doesn't love to have the power to decide everything in an organization! Its just the risk factor that keeps us away from taking that critical initiative to enter the business world. This is something I know I'll become in my life. "When?" I have no idea.

4. THE PRESIDENT OF INDIA: Representing India globally is not an option to reject. The pride involved, control over the armed forces, apolitical leadership just to name a few. The possibility of finding myself in that post, as you know, is zero but, the title justifies my 4th choice. The low priority to such an honor is because of the fear of failing to perform well, which, is not the case with the above three career choices where a failure is not the end of the world.

These are the 4 career choices close to my heart. Name yours in the comments (also elaborate in your blog )

'Leader'- Audio Review

Song 1: Maa Telugu Thalliki 4/5
Singer: Late Sri Tanguturi Surya Kumari
Title song. The famous "Maa Telugu Thalliki" original is used and well worked. The background music which runs throughout the song goes well with the song.

Song 2: Aunana Kaadhana 4.5/5
Singers: Naresh Iyer, Shwetha Pandit
Naresh Iyer and Shwetha both sang different songs on Kotha Bangaru Lokam for Mickey and both worked well (Nenani Neevani and Ok Anesa). This time they both got together for this song. The drum work is pleasant and the song is a treat.

Song 3: Vandemataram 4.5/5
Singer: Nakash Aziz
The role of selecting the proper singer for a song to do well is very important and this song proves it. Nakash's voice had the sophistication required to make this song sound awesome. Mickey did a great work too.

Song 4: Rajasekhara 4/5
Singer: Shweta Pandit
A slow song with drum work like in aunana kaadhana. As mentioned above, Shweta Pandit sang Nenani Neevani in Kotha Bangaru Lokam and her voice is apt.

Song 5: Hey CM 4/5
Singer: Sunita Sarathy
Lyrics close to Magadheera song of Okeokkadu. Voice suits the tune and tempo. Not many instruments used-simple orchestra.

Song 6: Leader Instrumental 4/5
Singers: Mickey J. Meyer, Balesh
Different version of the first song. "Maa Telugu Thalliki" is played with shenoy along with Leader bgm.

Sreelu Pongina which is a choir song is a short one and more like a prayer and hence not rated.

Overall Rating: 4.16/5

Verdict: Well Done Mickey!

Arya 2 Music Review

Purely personal review :)

Was waiting for a good audio since Oy! and got one thanks to DSP for a "Arya" like audio once again

#1: Karige Loga (D-Plugged) 3.5/5

Artist: Sagar

Lyrics : Vanamali

Sagar sang the slower version rather the softer version of the song(reviewed next). His voice is apt for this version of the song. Lyrics are easy to catch. Senti feel song.

#2: Karige Loga 3.5/5

Artists: Kunal Ganjawala, Megha

Lyrics : Vanamali

Faster version of the above mentioned song with more beats(DSP style :D) Kunal apt for the tempo.

#3: Mr. Perfect(DSP Mix) 3/5

Artist: DSP

Lyrics: Kedar

Least favored song in the list. This song clearly will be better on screen. Pappu cant dance type of song.

#4: My Love is Gone 4/5

Artist: Ranjith

Lyrics: Chandrabose

A dance number. Full of energy. The song is like celebrating a break up. The tune is awesome. Ranjith has been my favorite behind Karthik and this is one of his best songs. I personally like the lyrics because of experience :P. This will be a big hit among the broken hearts.

#5: Baby He Loves You 4/5

Artist: DSP

Lyrics: Chandrabose

DSP chose himself correctly for the song. The tune is catchy and lyrics are awesome. The song is full of comparisons. (Upamalankaram if I remember correctly :P)

#6: Mr. Perfect 3/5

Artist: Baba Sehgal, Rita

Lyrics: Kedar

Read #3

#7 Ringa Ringa 3.5/5

Artist: Priya Hemesh

Lyrics: Chandrabose

There was a leaked version of this song :) It was much better(lyrics wise and vocal wise) and was a huge hit in the campus. If you haven't heard that song this song will do ok for you :). Item number.

#8 Uppenantha 4.5/5

Artist: KK

Lyrics: Balaji

Best song for me :) No need to rate KK (at his usual best) Lyrics are good. Also never heard the lyricist name before, so its a great entry towards a bright future.

Overall rating: 3.625/5 :D (Average of all songs)

Enjoy the songs ;)

AH5 to AH8- a difficult transition

New post after a break with a new look to the blog :)

Unlike some people from my college, we didn't have to move to another hostel after the end of 1st year or 2nd. But last semester we received a notice that we have to shift to a new hostel before we leave for the vacation and were allowed to choose from the rooms which were going to be vacated by the students leaving for their Practice School for the next semester.

Though there was a feeling that we may miss the hostel where we lived 3 years, I never thought it would be this difficult. We were the first batch of students to reside in our old hostel AH5 and the first ever inter-hostel competition AH5 participated was Big Break(conducted for freshers), which we won!

Our hostel had the best of everything: controversies, gaming, noisy common room(with TV and carroms), passionate football fans and many more

Whenever AH5 people meet these days, we keep discussing about how life is so different and how badly we miss our what used to be "the second home". Though this is the last semester in campus and the only semester we have to live in another hostel its difficult to halt the memories coming back every now and then.

Finally, if any of you are made to shift your hostels every year IMO you shouldn't feel bad(I know shifting is a tough job) because its difficult to leave a place if you stay there for a long time.
