With regard to my earlier post titled “Tuppariyum Puli - Upcoming Malaysian Tamil Serial”, the director of the aforementioned teleserial emailed me with the link to the teleserial’s trailer uploaded in Youtube which can be viewed below. Personally, I love retro stuffs and this teleserial seems to be revolving in the 70’s or 80’s and it reminds me of the “That 70’s Show” sitcom though. Anyway, this teleserial is scheduled to be aired somewhere in February 2009 via TV2 and Jaya TV Networks, TamilNadu. Yes, you heard that right, Jaya TV networks! My best wishes to the whole team!
FX Labs is set to launch Ghajini -The Game for PC on 28th December. Based on the recently released Bollywood movie Ghajini, the game is touted to be India’s first 3D PC game. View the trailer of Ghajini - The Game and read a synopsis of it here.
Developed by FX Labs, the trailers of Ghajini - The Game has Max Payne-like gameplay integrated into a Manhunt-like environment in a Grand Theft Auto-like style layout. Stay tuned for more on the game. The producers obviously hope it will be a big success since it is linked to a Bollywood flick starring top actors.

They should have put Surya as the main character instead of Aamir Khan. Well, It’s not that I prefer Surya just for the sake of him being a Tamil actor but candidly, his appearance in the Tamil version of Ghajini was splendid.
Anyway, kudos to the team for making the first ever 3D game based on an Indian movie. As a result of this, I hereby demand games based on the following movies:
Dasavatharam - The Game
Sivaji The Boss - The Game
Billa - The Game
Two movies-convert-games which I believe would not even need a single cheat code would be Kuruvi - The Game and Narasimma - The Game. Come on, just hit a single key on the keyboard to jump from on top of a building to the railway track located far away opposite the building, and another hit on a single key on the keyboard to ensure the main character (assuming Vijayakanth in Narasimma - The Game) counter-attacks every single attack that were lashed at him, including a current shock.

Veteran actor M.N Nambiar (89), passed away today (November 19) afternoon at his residence in Chennai. Nambiar was ailing for quite some time, and was hospitalized some days back.
Most of the current youngsters would not know much about him but one thing for sure, he is a damn good villain! And not forgetting, one of the best person to be mimicked by fellow mimicry artists! May his soul rest in peace.

Frankly speaking, the teaser poster itself is very professional and I can’t wait for the serial to be released.

According to the director himself, this serial will be broadcasted in late November or might even be later than expected, so do wait for it! Continue reading the rest of this entry »
To those who are scratching their head, well, I’m talking about the latest hit track titled “Fatimah 2008” by The Villanz from their latest album named “Saagavaram“. By the time I’m posting this, it seems that this Fatimah 2008 song is in the lead (Thanks Junio) in THR Raaga’s Malaysian Top 10! Wow, not bad!
Another thing is that this song is featured by Darkkey, the very same person who initiated the original version of Fatimah song together with his “colleagues” - The Keys - a few years back. That was a very very long time ago from what I could recall. So by now, you all should know that this Fatimah 2008 song is a remake of the old Fatimah song, with some modifications done to it, or should I say the transformation of Samba Rock to Hip-Hop!
BUT, one thing perplexes me. I shall assume that some of you would have listened to (watched) the above video and now, try listening to the original version of the Fatimah song below:
Spot the difference? Yape, it is the lyrics! Anyway, is it only me or anyone else have noticed that the lyrics for the original Fatimah song are kind of ‘double-meaning‘? LOL! Let me decipher some part of those lyrics!
FATIMAH NEE YERI PAARU MAMA KUTHUREYILE!
- Fatimah, come and ride my (uncle’s?) horse.
Sorry guys but I could not recall his full name! The above would be one of the best mimicry I have ever seen, besides those of Michael Augustine, Kovai Guna and Western Pattabi from the same programme (Asatha Povathu Yaaru). These guys rock!
After watching Dasavatharam a few days back, I approached some of my known-individuals (friends!) to get their feedback on the movie Dasavatharam and to my despair, there were some people who claimed that the movie was “hmmm….OKlar”! Oklar? Come on dude, it was awesome!
So, why would one say so? Because Rajinikanth didn’t acted with his punch dialogues? Or maybe because Vijay didn’t acted with his same and lame “Naa nadentha whatever, naa okantha whatever, naa kuminja whatever” shit quote?
Some said the storyline was kinda ‘dragging’. Some said the movie was kinda ’slow’ - which means the same thing as ‘dragging’ previously. Some even said that the movie was kinda confusing! Let us exclude the latter part and concentrate on the former part. Dragging? Slow? I would say that a tiny portion of you people are none other than those typical-minded Indians in which the only thing that you all would LOVE and IS-A-MUST to have in a Tamil movie would be:
A dance scene in the forest.
A poor hero falling in love with a rich girl.
A scene whereby either the heroin’s mama or her father himself would be chasing the hero with a parang.
A death scene accompanied with a fight and some few arguments.
Dan sebagainya.
I could recall a few years back when the movie Aalavanthan made its debut and so many mixed reviews were thrown out pertaining to it. I approached a few of my cousins and asked their feedbacks at that time:
Makkez: How was the Aalavanthan movie? You liked it? Cousin Girl 1: Not nice lar… Got cartoon scene all… Like stupid only..
Makkez: How was the Aalavanthan movie? You liked it? Cousin Girl 2: Padoma athu!
The title says it all! This time, I would neither go around bashing those boys nor would I bash those girls, but for a change, it would be an AUNTY! An aunty by the name of ‘Veeramah‘.
The story goes like this. I was going through some of my local Tamil songs collection inside my PC and there was a folder called “Veeramah”. Inside that folder were a bunch of songs purportedly sang by this “Veeramah” and I have totally forgotten how the hell did those “Veeramah” songs got into my PC! No, it is not a virus or a spyware. And no, my mother’s name is not Veeramah either.
All of a sudden, a flashback came into my mind. I could then recall that I happened to stumble upon this “Veeramah” audio CD long time ago at Brickfields and I had a shock the moment I had a glimpse at the cover of the CD! It depicted a middle-aged woman posing like a BIKER and If I’m not mistaken, a Harley-Davidson-look-alike bike was beside her and It was kinda funny.
A few years have passed and I am now having her songs in my PC! Hmmm. Anyway, I just thought of listening to one of her tracks out of curiosity and to my stupor, I was speechless. Speechless in such a way that I could not type anything else further.
You listen to it and you judge it.
Click the PLAY button below to hear the song. PAUSE it so that it would buffer fully and you could hear the song without any interruption. If your curiosity is at the optimum level, do not hesitate to listen till the end.
