Lakshmi Theatre

Lakshmi Map

This blog is my personal experience which is going to be based on the moral of this blog "Are we Thinking out of the Box".
In many ways, People are like the buzzard, the bat and the bumblebee. We struggle about with all our problems and frustrations, never realizing that all we have to do is look up.

It's all about Lakshmi Theatre. The One of the famous cinema theatre in Madivala (bangalore) that is near to my home. This theatre is special for me, as, it reminds me the above moral.

A year back, I got a transfer from Trivandrum to Bangalore. Being a movie (theatre) freak and new to the city, I want to fullfill my appetite in both. I want to watch new movies releasing in city and also roam around the city. The solution or strategy I have followed is that, if a new movie was released in the city, I would watch the movie in a theatre for which i havent been before.

For everything, there is a starting point. Starting point for this exploration was began with the search of theatre "Aruna" for the movie "Pattiyal". I dont want to go into the movie details, however, it is a good movie, almost pithamagan remade.

After almost one month, I was still living there in Madivala(Bangalore). I have watched a movie in Forum. I felt that I was getting narrowed down. The initial aspiration was not there anymore, anyway, I wouldnot let my ignition switch off. It was at those time, I came to know about Lakshmi Theatre in Tavarakere near Madivala. I dont remember what was my first movie in Lakshmi Theatre.

We took the Auto and we memorised the route all the way to the theatre. After Reaching there, We estimated the distance from home and as per our calculations, the movie theatre was not so far, jus 20 min walk. Thanks to the Auto for showing the way. After watching the movie, we were back home by the same route on walk.

Almost three months have gone. By this time, we have watched the some three to four movies Don , Superman Returns, Dhoom etc in the same theatre. All the time, we have taken the same route.

But that is not all. One fine day, when I was returning from Taverekere, I find a narrow street going straight just before the usual route. I have decided to try that street. voila. You wont believe me. It takes me directly to the back of my house. Its just five minutes walk.. :)

This is one such small event that happened to me. But after that I came across lots of similar incidents however, this is significant compared to others as the impact of this incident was quite long i.e, three months.

Breaking the Silence

Generally, a blogger (like me) fails to blog continuously, because one or more of the following Four reasons. 1. There is nothing happened in my life to blog about..( which is impossible.) 2. There happened lots of things and got busy with the things that came up. 3. No internet connection. 4. good bye to blog For me, Its the second reason that make this blog silent over the last month. Not only that there is slight touch of third reason i.e.I had limited access to internet. It is good in one way, as always quality work is associated with the efficient usage of limited internet rather than slogging all time in internet. Over the last month, though I have been to Chennai and Bangalore over the last two week, I could not meet lots of my friends. As I used to say, In Life, "It happens". And also, There were lots of events, trips and learnings i have come across that definitely needs blogging. Hope I would blog something better in the next blog other than mere update. Let's...

Sultan, The Warrior

Kannu, Ithu Puthusu, Sultan. What ever Rajni Does... that makes a huge talk in Tamil Nadu... and Now, the fire was spreading all over the country and unto the world. Thats shows how his charisma wins the heart of crores of people. While Sivaji running great across theatres, homes, internet... there was large amount of hype and hoopla around his next movie... and yes, Sultan, The warrior would definitely make history in World Cinema. Being a fan..Here goes what I thought negative about the Trailer: - * Rajini - doesn't Appear as Rajni... When you take a close look at him... he appears as Slim Vijayakanth.. * Even in animation, they have used Doop for Rajni. It was clearly visible when he hides his face while swinging the sword. :) * I don’t know why he jumps so unusual to take that sword. Style?? * Soundarya Rajnikanth - is directing the movie... Remember chandramukhi graphics... which was widely appreciated (?*&#&) * Only the name of the movie was ready, other casts were n...

Katrathu Kaiyalavu

There was a Girl, who was Tall & Thin & Fair, her Hair, her Hair, was a color of Ginger An English Rhymes from the Tamil Movie, "Katrathu Tamil", One of the Excellent movie of the year, packed with interesting, informative dialogs and intuitive screenplay. Achan kovil, Xaviers College, Tirunelveli (My Dad graduated there), munusaamy(A tamil Graduate), takes me back and forth in time. Even the dumb story of a dream tiger which is dreaming about the dream desert, adds unknown beauty to the movie. A One line about IT... "If India is a growing, it has to be equivalent in all industry. if only Leg (IT) is growing, it is a Disease (yaanai Kaal), we have to cure it." explains the impact of IT over other industry. Just like real life, this movie has got no logic :) Unlike my earlier blogs on Movies, This blog going to be a sketch of incidents that cames to my mind while watching this movie. Incident 1: Guindy, 04:30 pm, I have just reached the Gandhi Mandapam Bus ...
