Whatever happens life has to go on(Varanam Aayiram):


The long wait was over when Varanam Aayiram released two weeks back. A movie which had been expected to hit the screen didn’t turn me down.

I watched twice before I’m writing it down here. It’s all about Surya’s transformation.






The story is about a guy who’s just thinking about the things happened in his life when he heard the news of his father’s death. From kid to an Army major how he evolved is a wonderful transition. As a school kid and as a college student Surya really stealing the heart away especially when he falls in love with Sameera reddy.


The romantic scenes are melting the heart. The music is really awesome. All the songs are excellent. The cinematography of Ratnavelu captured every scene how it meant to be. Gowtham’s storyline was not up to expectations but he worked hard to make dual role of Surya as no one expected.


“Enna thedi vantha Anjalai” song is really awesome.It’s not a must to watch but taken the consideration of the team work of entire team it’s really treat to eyes.

SCP – Secure copy

scp can be used to transfer files from a remoter server. I would consider this as an alternate to ftp command to transfer files.

scp uses ssh for data transfer.Like ftp it also uses authentication before accessing the remote server.

Example:

Source file details:

Server : 192.150.120.106
Path : /home/sqlscripts/
File name: truncate.sql
Username: sam

Destination file details:

Server : 192.192.100.150
Path : /home/sqlscipts/
Username : john

If the file truncate.sql needs to be transfer to destination server(192.192.100.150
) from source the following command would do. Go to destination directory and enter the command as follows

scp sam@192.150.120.106:/home/sqlscripts/truncate.sql .

After pressing enter you will be prompted to enter your password. Enter the password and press enter the file would be in destination folder.

A perfect entertainer

Saturday, a day to have some fun. But today I went to office and it was quite a bad day. I back home at 9 o’ clock. And out of nowhere the idea got popped out of my mind. Yeah, movies plan. Me and my room mates chose a movie “DOSTANA”.

Movie: Dostana
Cast: John Abraham, Abhishek Bachchan, Priyanka chopra
Director: Tarun Mansukhani
Cinematographer: Ayananka Bose
Music Director: Vishal Dadlani,Shekhar Ravjiani





The movie starts with sizzling song of Shilpa shetty. John(Kunal) and Abhishek(Sameer) are getting introduced when they looking for a room. As the room won’t be shared for guys they’ve planned to say an unimaginable and funny lie. As Priyanka(Neha) is staying in the room they are very happy to be in the room. After that all funny stuffs are profoundly hilarious. Both the guys are falling in love with Neha. But Neha is very much interested with her boss(Bobby Deol) . And the plot goes which unveils the love with Neha.Songs are ordinary and nothing special about it.
John and Abhishek are awesome in this movie. Priyanka Chopra is looking extremely hot in this movie.I like her a lot in this movie.

It’s a funny movie and it’s a good entertainer. It made by bad day into a good one.

Sizzlers at café coffee day

Sizzlers – a different dessert that I never have tasted before. Me and all my friends went to coffee day to have some fun time over there. Everyone ordered a coffee according to their tastes, to be frank according to the name which sounds different.






The order took 10 minutes before the coffees were arrived at our table. After it arrived we had a confusion of coffee which we ordered and after some chaos we had settled down and identified our unique coffee.


After some time we had finished our coffee and we were ready to go. Out of nowhere the idea of dessert came and one of my friends ordered for a SIZZLER and remaining guys didn’t have any idea about that.

All of us were curiously waiting for that to arrive and it tool longer than expected. As we were about to lose patience the waiter arrived with the sizzler.

A Sizzler is a dessert with a hot cream cake on the bottom and a dessert on the top. It tasted so great, I could even feel it now when I’m writing. We’ve finished within minutes of its arrival.It was awesome and spectacular.

Everyone should try once.

Quantum Of Solace


Director: Marc Forster


Cinematographer: Roberto Schaefer


Music Director: David Arnold


Cast: Daniel Craig

Olga Kurylenko









The movie starts with an exciting chasing scene at a highway near a river in Italy. I was very much impressed with the cinematographer Schaefer in that scene. He did a tremendous job in the next two scenes too which kept the excitement of the movie alive.


Then the plot of the movie lead Bond to Austria, Italy and South America to have a revenge of the guy who killed his friend who was much closed to him. The guy belongs to a more dangerous organization which tries to take control of the most natural resources in Bolivia.









As Bond was close to the man responsible for the man who killed his friend, he was trying to stop the organization from acquiring the land in Bolivia.


Like the other bond’s movies this one did not contain lot of hi-tech gizmos except the GPS enabled mobile phone which makes him to track down his enemies identities.


With the excellence in cinematography this movie is a treat to watch.

Vettel, the hero of the Brazilian race

An unbelievable Sunday which the F1 world would never forget. A nerve stopping rce which would nearly stopp ed the heart to beat.

Sao Paulo, Brazil has been in limelight for this weekend as it’s the venue for the ultimatum race for the world champion.

On Saturday Felipe Massa had set the qualifiers to his favor by riding the fastest lap ,took the pole position and the Brazilians were all in cloud number nine as their hero was ready to make a history in the home.

Sunday, the race day: It was swarm of people everywhere to see the unforgettable race that they never had imagined. The race was delayed by 10 minutes as rain started pouring down. All cars were in the pit to change the tires as the tract became wet. Then the five reds were illuminated to begin the race. Massa was leading the race from the front as Hamilton pushed hard to keep him in the fifth position. Laps were dropping down as still Hamilton in the fifth position.

Vettel (Toro Rosso), I would call him as the hero of the race as he was in second position scared the Brazilian driver Massa ,by pushing harder than no would ever imagined. But Massa kept his cool and he didn’t allow Vettel to pass him.


When there were less than 10 laps to go Massa leads the race with Alonso and Kimi behind him respectively. Hamilton was in fourth as Glock and Vettel were behind him. Glock went to fourth position as Hamilton went to a pit stop to change the tires as the rain started pouring down again. Even though Hamilton was safe as he maintained the fifth position to become the world champion.


Vettel ,an unbelievable driver overtook Hamilton when one lap to go pushed Hamilton to sixth position. As everything had been set for Massa to be the world champion, the twist in the tale of the race happened.

An unbelievable last 30 seconds that made people numb and even made Massa shed tears and left him emotional. Massa punched the air as he crossed the chequer flag. The crowd and the Ferrari team rejoiced as Massa won the race and Hamilton was still in the fifth position. Alonso came second , kimi was third,Vettel fourth and then the drama happened. Glock stayed slow allowed Hamilton to finish in the fifth position.

The drama made Hamilton the youngest driver ever to became the F1 world champion.He deserved to be the world champion.
