Ugh! March!
Fail’uh Fail’uh Fail’uh
For 4 months, I have been expecting this month to come.
Before our Ooty Plan, me and SJ planned for a trip to Rameswaram. Later that plan got evolved into a round trip to Kerala. We have decided to take this trip at the end of March. So, for 4 months, I have been saving money by opening an RD account especially for the expense of this trip.
And during the mid of March, me and my friends planned to go to Trichy for our EEE friend E lucky N’s sister’s marriage.
And at the start of March, me and Raghin Chettan along with Womaniser planned to go to Kerala for visiting our Bhai – Hassan Bhai!
And Guess What…
NONE OF THIS SHIT HAD HAPPENED!!!
I never left my home in March except going to Nenjam Marapadhillai with SJ and NSK. And thus, I had nearly watched 16 films, 2 seasons of a web series and read 7 books in the month of March.
Whew!!!
The only outing of March
It’s the first Friday of March 2021.
And Its been nearly 5 years of waiting. Finally, the day came. Nenjam Marapadhillai was out in theatres at last.
NSK, SJ and me were planning to watch this movie for a month then. I was the guy who got assigned for the task of getting the ticket. Well, I successfully bought 3 tickets for Sunday Afternoon show but then and there occurred a glitch.
I couldn’t resist my urge to watch the movie. I bought another ticket for Friday Afternoon show and watched the movie. After watching the movie, I regretted watching that movie so much. It was a crap movie. Or rather I should I didn’t like the movie or even more, the movie didn’t intend for people like me.
Otha fuck it! It’s a kirukku koodhi of a movie.
What was supposed to be a movie that explores the shades of Evil and Good, miserably failed to achieve it. Just because it has layers of hidden meaning doesn’t make it a good movie. If someone finds those shitty details, it’ll give them a high of a person who just finished completing a crossword puzzle. Waste’uh!
After watching this disaster on Friday, I watched the last movie (or is it!??!) of the Before Franchise. It changed my mood, but I must watch Nenjam Marapadhillai again with my friends the next day. But that Sunday was not bad as I expected, we chilled in the March heat and watched the movie. We three didn’t like that movie and ranted till we met our departure.
My first week of March started with me finishing a great Tamil book and ended up sadly.
I had a lot of fun reading that Tamil book. I am a slow reader of Tamil books not because I have difficulty reading Tamil, but I love to grasp the subject of any Tamil book slowly. I want to hold those thought and may be leave it lingering for a while.
And with Vairamuthu being the author, the 10 days I spent reading this book was nothing less than a feeling of teleporting to a world of a different era.
Yes! It’s a Historical Fictional Novel called கள்ளிக்காட்டு இதிகாசம்
Though I started reading this book on the last week of February, I finished reading this book on the first Tuesday of March.
I have started reading another book on the last week of February along with கள்ளிக்காட்டு இதிகாசம். It was an autobiography of G.R.Gopinath, the founder of Air Deccan and its name is வானமே எல்லை! It’s a big book of nearly 750 pages. I thought it would make me bored AF to read an autobiography book of 750 Pages. So, I decided to read a fictional story parallelly so that I can cope up with reading both the books. But I enjoyed reading வானமே எல்லை as equally as I enjoyed reading கள்ளிக்காட்டு இதிகாசம்.
Feminism and Sex
Look!
I am not a FEMINIST. Period!
And I don’t want to be a feminist too.
And more over, I don’t want to be a person who claims to be a misogynist but being a feminist in the inside. (Like NSK does)
I just want to be a person who doesn’t have sexist thoughts. Nothing more and nothing less. It’s somewhat falls in the line of feminism but if I call myself a feminist, then I am being hypocritical. I am not ashamed to be a hypocritic guy (Well I should be ashamed but let me explain) because I accept the fact that I am a hypocrite.
As once a wise man said, “Sometimes a hypocrite is someone who is in the process of Changing”
That means, I don’t take pride in being a hypocrite or making this as an excuse for denying the notion of Feminism. I am just happy that I can distinguish what’s right from the wrong and working towards to be the person I want me to be. And I feel that not being ignorant about these sexist thoughts will make me that guy who I want me to be.
And that’s why, wanting to be a guy who doesn’t want to have sexist thoughts, I hated (or rather cringed) reading கருவாச்சி காவியம்.
It’s written by Vairamuthu. Though I liked his first book கள்ளிக்காட்டு இதிகாசம் so much, I detested கருவாச்சி காவியம். The notion of female character and how its written is what made me hate this book.
People can argue it as being realistic. But the thing is how we write about that realistic things. Its our perception of those so called “realistic” is what that should be questioned and debated.
Karuvaachi is also a piece of shit, who just struggles and struggles and then struggles all the way till the end of the book. Reading her didn’t make me sorry for her instead of it angered the shit out of me. Making us feel sorry for the oppressed is just as bad as glorifying the oppression.
The second week of March had started with கருவாச்சி காவியம் but, it ended with a lot of good movies. A lot of excellent movies to be precise. So, I am going to write about it in the next post.
Coming to the third week of March, I read two Tamil books about SEX!
One is a short story collection revolving sex. It tells the Native Sex stories told to the author when he was a young boy in his native village and the book is the compilation of those stories. The book is வயது வந்தவர்களுக்கு மட்டும் by கி. ராஜநாராயணன் (shortly கி.ரா).
And the other one was an educational book about Sex (more like a fun historical accounts on how sex was perceived in each periods of time in the world) and how the sex education and the strive to know how sex works has revolutionized the world. The name of the book is உயிர் by Narayana Reddy.
