This is how Adult Comedies should be done in Tamil (The 4-Month Void #4)

Adult Comedy Quotes. QuotesGram

 

I love adult comedies. It was 2018. I guess. My friend Naveen shared me a video. A guy is speaking vulgar words and it was funny as fuck. And the shock is, it was a Tamil video. It was a rare thing to happen. Tamil YouTube was already boomed and was rising at a study rate during 2016 and 2017. I came to know about Madan Gowri in my 3rd Semester and in 2018, he became a huge success. And other cringe love channels like Mic Set, Unakennappa were also booming. It was around that time, I happened to watch a YouTube channel.

It was Plip Plip. 

I am a sucker for anything that had adult content. Be it, sex, drugs, or gore.

Speaking of gore, I watched a fun gore movie called Braindead on the first week of April.

Braindead (1992)

 Why Braindead remains the pinnacle of grisly practical effects 

This is a vampirish movie with a lot of gore. Even as I am writing this sentence, the climax gore fest is popping in my mind. This is a kind of gore, where the story is not important, but the gore is. And in some areas, I nearly puked watching the movie. 

Usually, Tamil adult comedies were a rare occurrence. Even if they happen, it would either be a cringe or be a secret thing (like Hara Hara Mahadevaki audio files). But plip plip was a channel that had black humour with quality content. 

It was similar to another Tamil adult YouTube channel called The Temple Monkeys. I almost forgot about temple monkeys. I got introduced to them in my school days by watching a put chutney video (a baahubali spoof, I guess). Plip Plip had a similar vibe to that channel and I instantly liked their videos. 

It’s like in each part of my life, I came to know about these beautiful adult humour content.

In School – Temple Monkeys

In College – Plip Plip

At Job – SVK

So, why am I bragging about these?

Okay!

What I felt hearing about Periyar, I felt whenever I consume their content. One thing that Periyar told still hits me hard. It goes like this…

“Don’t take any fact or news for granted. Analyse it. Blame anyone who does oppression and immoral deeds. Even if it’s me who doing it. Blame me!”

This kind of speeches would start a debate battle inside me. In April 2021, I watched a movie called Mandela where my head started a debate battle after watching that movie. One common debate battle I would have been whether the content I consumed was politically correct or not. And I felt a lot of political incorrectness in Mandela. I am definitely not trying to be a woke here.

Mandela (2021)

Mandela (2021) - IMDb 

Mandela is a movie where a village conducts an election, and the result of the election depends upon a single guy. And that guy is from an oppressed community. In order to win his vote, two major parties of that village try a lot of things to please him. I loved the film when I watched it. But when I discussed this film with my friends, I had some issues. (like I did with Paava Kadhaigal). One main issue I felt is the way a person represent himself as. But when we look closely, we see a different person.

This kind of realisation is what had happened with SVK. I started feeling their biased nature. And I hated it totally. 

I loved the above three guys, because they trolled everyone who lacked common sense. 

I was an avid listener of SVK podcast. I had listened to them from season 1 to season 3 on a weekly basis. But as soon as they started season 4, it became a biased one. 

Yes! I felt like they became suckers for one of the opposition parties of Tamil Nadu before 2021 election – DMK. As soon as any topic comes to DMK, they would turn a blind eye and it started becoming too obvious in season 4. 

I am a kind of guy who hates to be in the middle and I think one should be sided to either left or right. I am a leftist, and I would obviously incline towards DMK’s left ideology. But that doesn’t mean, I have to be a sucker for them. And that irritates me so much. 

And DMK’s IT Wing did a great job of trolling the other parties. It was a fun election. Although it was obvious to know who would win the election. 

On May 2nd, DMK won the 16th TN Elections and Thalapathy Stalin became the Chief Minister of Tamil Nadu. 

With the help of SVK, I started listening to few other podcasts and I liked listening to podcast than hearing songs. Notable podcasts are, 

Vocal Oli by none other thalaivar Vijay Varadharaj

The WalkMonk

Om Creem

Marana Vilas

And more…

I had watched Joji and 99 Songs (A movie written by AR Rahman) in the middle of April. After that I got busy reading Harry Potter.

Joji (2021)

The one thing I love about Stephen King (though I read only one of his books but watches a lot of movies adapted from his books) is how he writes the dark side of humans. Joji does that exactly. Great One!

99 Songs (2021)

A cliched love movie with great music!

April month went swiftly after I started reading Harry Potter. 

But the next month went super-fast because of Superheroes…

Aftermath of a trip is worse than a hangover

  The Wrap Up The Ooty trip had taught me too things! One – To spend minimally. Two – To plan stealthily. I brought a Jumbo Loan immediately after my Ooty Trip. After my discussion with my mom, it was inevitable for me to take a loan. The loan helped me to pay my credit card, my brother’s last year college fees and we had bought a water purifier too.  Surprisingly, I decided to take a 10 Year Asset Insurance plan and started saving 60k each year. I started saving for my Kanyakumari trip too. So, I have created an RD account for 6 month (I am going to break it out in 3 months... DUH!!) and started saving 3000 a month. Though it had its disappointments, the Ooty also had its fair share of enjoyments. It was a great beginning for the year 2021.   I had never imagined that I would watch two Selvaraghavan’s films on a new year (that too back-to-back). It had happened this year. Even completing a one-day Ooty trip was also an achievement of some sorts, excluding its...

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...
