Ending the February 2021 romantically

My own Enlightener – The Great Uzumaki suggested to watch this show. At first, I had my doubts and hesitated to watch this show.

The main reason for my hesitation is IT’S A FUCKING VIJAY TV SHOW.

Once upon a time, Vijay TV used to give quality content like Lollu Sabha, Nandu Sindu Vandu, the Office, Kana Kaanum Kaalangal and much more. Later it started to become cringe-y. So, I ignored this show initially.

I used to watch Facebook videos and Insta Reels to kill my time sometimes. And in those videos, I would watch clips of Cook with Comali. Over the time, I started liking those clips and decided to watch the show.

The first season of the show had already got over and second season of the show has been airing now. Nearly 20 episodes of Season 2 had been done. Each episode is a one hour long. So, I decided to skip the first season and planned to watch the second season from the start.

And that’s how my amazing journey of watching Cook with Comali began.

Vijay TV usually copies the concept of shows and it would do the Tamil Version constantly. Shows like Super Singer, Neengalum vellalaam our Kodi, Bigg Boss and much more were all rip offs of shows that aired in a foreign channel or other networks. But Cook with Comali is a VIJAY TV ORIGINAL show.

I started to attach myself so much with the Cooks and Comalis of this show. It’s like watching HIMYM and falling in love with the characters of that show. Just like that, I became fan of Pugazh, Sivaangi, Bala, Manimegalai, Sarath, Sunitha, Baba Master and the Judges (You too Rakshan!! You too). Even the Brother Sister Cringe of Pugazh and Sivaangi didn’t affect me. That’s how impactful this show became to me.

I finally caught up with the season 2 of this show and started waiting for the weekends.

After getting caught up with this show, I resumed reading the Train to Pakistan and finished it on the fourth and the last week of February.

Before that, I planned to watch all the romantic films (in addition to some thriller flicks) I had saved in the watchlist of my letterbox account.

In the third weekend of February, I had watched 4 films. 2 Crime thrillers and 2 Love films.

Love – The name of the movie may be Love but not it’s genre. In January, I had watched June and became fan of Rajisha Vijayan. So, I decided to watch this movie. I thought this would be a romantic film but guess what! It’s a mindfucking thriller. Woah the climax twists! Brings me the chills every time I think about it!

Drishyam 2 – One of the most anticipated films of this year. Usually second part of all the great movie franchise would be somewhat worse than the first one. But it is not the case with Drishyam 2. Mohan Lal is a beast when it comes to acting. The film lagged a bit in the middle, but the climax had blown my mind away.

Before Sunrise – Pure Bliss. I am thinking of writing a separate post for the Before Trilogy. So, not gonna write anything here.

Tamasha – I had high expectations on this movie, but I didn’t like it. It felt like a fucked-up version of Mayakkam Enna.

Then I finished reading the Train to Pakistan on a Monday (Fourth and Final week of February) and started reading Kallikaatu Idhigaasam by Vairamuthu. I didn’t finish reading this book by the end of February and ended reading it on the first week of March. So, I would be writing about it on the upcoming posts.

Then on the last weekend of February, I had watched three movies.

Kadhalum Kadanthu Pogum – A re-watch. When it got released on 2016, I was in the first year of my college. This movie always gives me the nostalgia of those times. I had watched it twice in the theatres. This was the first movie I have watched after coming out of college hostel and renting a room with my friends. And this movie made me a VJS Kanni (which I started to hate later in my college days). Calling this movie, a poetic flick would be apt.

Before Sunset – Yet another blissful film.

The White Tiger – It’s a movie adapted from the book of the same name it seems. I haven’t read the book, but I liked the movie. I am not sure how to judge this movie or express my feelings towards this movie but, I can say I enjoyed watching this movie. I always love a good satire. When it has dark humour mixed with it, I would enjoy it totally. I had such experience with this movie.

Ranking of Harry Potter Books

  The End This book is my second least favourite book of Harry Potter series (I’ll explain why Deathly Hallows didn’t become my worst HP book while I give the ranking of HP books). I expected Harry’s character to mature a bit after he fucked up because of his recklessness in the last book. But guess what, he was the same and it costed Albus Dumbledore’s life. Okay! That’s a cruel thing to say. But when I read the book, I wanted Dumbledore to live. (It all changed when I read the next book!) And he deserved more respect from Harry. I knew Dumbledore never trusted anyone and all that shit. But Harry should’ve trusted Dumbledore (even though Dumbledore blamed himself in this book. This is mutual respect motherfucker!) And the climax was another tragedy and this time, I didn’t like the tragedy. Mainly because how the final book was set up in the climax of the sixth book. I didn’t want the trio to wander away to find some weird deathly hallows. I wanted them to stay in Hogwart...

NOI – A Short Film by Naveen Selvakumar (Last Days of IBM #2)

NOI – A Short Film by Naveen Selvakumar In June 26, I watched a Japanese film called One Cut of the Dead (2017) It’s a movie about a director who directs a zombie movie in an abandoned building. But there is one problem. They have to shoot the movie in a single take, without any cut. While they were shooting, real zombies started to attack them and the movie was about the events that had happened before and after the zombie attack. It was an excellent movie. The hero of the movie (who played as a director) and the director of our short film, Naveen Selva Kumar (NSK) look exactly the same. Both look wise and skill wise.  It all started in the mid of July. 16th of July to be exact. I was planning on watching two Malayalam movies that weekend when NSK sent me a script and asked me to read it. The next day, I watched Nayattu (2021) and Malik (2021)  Both movies brought a lot of controversies. Nayattu dealt with making Dalit as bad guys (not explicitly) and...
