Myna Musings

There was a function to felicitate the Director-producer of the new sensational Tamil movie, Myna, at the Ajman Royal Palace Hotel. The meeting was hurriedly conducted, inviting only a few members of Humor club.


The director had come to Dubai for the screening of the movie at the 7th International film festival-DIFF2010.

Before the meeting, I was interacting with the director Prabu Solomon about his journey to success. He was quite philosophical in saying that 'successes don't come by luck but only earned by the dint of hard work'. If one has to wait for luck to favor then it is almost impossible to achieve success.

He also pointed out the habit of many people who would fall into a trap of superstitions and beliefs about the influence of celestial forces. They would not take up any venture during such 'bad period', fearing that they will fail.

Talking about the movie, he said that the main reason for the success was the choice of location and, the cast who are new faces, synchronising very well with the local charactors. He was quick to add that the beautiful locations of the movie worked out to be the 'second hero' of the movie, which was so refreshing and never picturised by other cinematographers.

My journalist friend was probing the director very enthusiastically. I whispered into his ears that he could bag a grand-father role in his next film, whilst I may settle for a slightly inferior role of, say Hero's....... father!

Rebooting the 'Robot'

Sometimes you just don't have an urge to do what you wanted to do!

I saw this movie 'Endhiran' at Concord cinema on 7th October. I wanted to write a review immediately but desisted from doing so for fear of an adverse impact on the collections at box offices!

Now that the box offices have more than reaped their quota, I can jolly well write the review, without worrying a legal action!

Majority of unmarried girls would love this movie for one reason! Yes; there is now an option of falling in love with a machine than experiencing the same predicament of their mothers who have married 'living things' that seldom emote!

Older women will regret for having aged, but there is a solace in that mature Robots may come up for sale soon.

The story goes like this. One scientist, obsessed in artificial intelligence, creates a Robot which can actually emote and fall in love. Poor scientist did not realize that his fiancée, who is the most beautiful woman on the Earth, can fall in love with his creation! The scientist was so passionate with his work, whilst the robot quickly wins the heart of the Beauty.

Now the Beauty is bit confused, if she has to marry the un-interesting character or the new found 'vibrant'lover, the Robot!

The Scientist out of sheer jealousy dumps the Robot in a dumping yard only to be picked up by a rogue Scientist, who not only gives it fresh life, but also injects a villainous mind using a RED CHIP!

Now the new avatar, the Robot which has developed a fatal attraction for his master's GF, sets out on a blitzkrieg pursuit of its love!

Suddenly for some inexplicable reason, the Beauty realizes that machine is after all a machine and switches her loyalty back to the Scientist. Rogue Robot abducts the Beauty like a Super Ravan!

By switching off the electricity, Robot demon was made to loose its vigor and some how, the Scientist removes the RED CHIP from its abdomen.

Beauty now reunites with the Scientist to live boringly ever after!

Enjoyed Ash dancing with young 'llama at machu picchu' at Kilimanjaro! Robot Rajini is better than the Scientist Rajini! In the next film, Rajini can be replaced by Endhiran! Appears that story of the movie was a teamwork-hap hazard!

You can watch the movie so that 'art and money' goes to Kalanidhi!
