Headlines read ” India NOT in world cup 2015″. The story starts this way… India is out of the contention for playing in world cup 2015 after losing its final qualifying match with Canada in the ICC qualifying tournament held here in Sharjah. …….

And it continues with intricate details of the match played which are not of concern to us for this blog. Believe it or not I dream of reading this headline. I mean I yearn to have this piece of newspaper in my hand soon. Before you jump into conclusions of calling me a traitor or some one who hates cricket or some one who is pessimistic, I would like to explain my point.

I feel this should happen because the current Indian team, its management, coach (or no coach) and the selection process are all hopeless ( to put it very mildly). Ever wondered how many selection flaws keep happening and how poorly the richest cricket board in the world is managed. After 2007 world cup debacle we had the board taking some stern steps like linking performance with pay but for how long… Even before India played a single series they reverted back to their old ways of grading players into A,B and C grade and paying them according to their grade which God only knows was decided on which ancient match. Regarding the selection process, we know players are selected into the national team from the ranji and other domestic cricket matches.(* Conditions Apply) But how are players selected for ranji. To be a part of a prestigious cricket club in India you need to be at least from an upper middle class family. How many from the lower and lower middle class really get a fair chance to play and try for the ranji teams? And as soon as someone gets selected for ranji next target for him is to appear in the national team. And they make their debut at the age of around 20. So where is the bench strength of India team. Just to give an example how things should be , a player of Mike Hussey’s caliber made his debut into international arena at the age of 30 + .

Coming back to my dream, the next day, BCCI is dissolved and all the money in it is used for conducting a national level talent competition for cricketers where anyone can participate and then a team is constituted for each ranji team from where the national team is picked up.(*Conditions Apply)

And then………..well lets not dream too much.:)

*: I am taking an ideal corruption free selection process into account for this. [via]

http://www.ibnlive.com/blogs/anuradhasengupta/164/2079/thank-you-sivaji.html

To answer your questions one by one:

1)We agree that you did not review the film. may be you are not supposed to do also. but you have no rights to call all those who waych sivaji pigs. including yourself into that category doesn’t make it any less offensive.

2)It is not about the regional films thing. just one question on this. which is the film in any god forsaken language which generated this much hype.which was multiplied by all the news channel including CNN-IBN.

3)We are not only protecting Rajnikanth the person. We are out there to protect Rajnikanth the actor as well. For your kind information Rajnikant is a very good actor. If you want proofs for this I would suggest you watch some of the old movies by Rajnikant (for your kind information Rajnikant has also won national awars) and in Sivaji also he has done enough hard work at the age of 58 and the mere fact that the entire movie stands on his able shoulders shows his status.

4)If you can call all who watched Sivaji as pigs then you better watch out and protect yourself from these pigs.

5)Making money is not a bad thing for films and if you are of the belief that whichever movie is not making money is good then i am sorry you are in an absolute minority. The very logic behind pointing out that Sivaji made money was that it has reached so many people and so many people have liked it to watch it shelling out so much money from their pockets.

6)You can understand the story of the movie without knowing Tamil, agreed. But what about the dialoghes of the movie and the healthy comedy track of the movie. If you don’t know that dialoghes are the highlight of a Rajnikanth movie then I am sorry.you need to do some more homework before you see a next Rajnikant film.

7)Well at least now you appreciate things. Thanks. The same energy is being shown by Rajni and all those who were a part of Sivaji. Pls try to appreciate them as well.

8)Well we agree and sincerely hope this is true.

Pls try not to hurt in future.

Vijay celebrates his birthday on June 22. This year’s birthday sees him at the top of the rungs in Tamil filmdom. With Ghilli breaking all box office records Vijay the Illaya Thalapathi has bounced back to center stage. His earlier film `Thirumalai’ too was a big hit. Vijay speaks about his feelings and excitement on the success of Ghilli excerpts

Did you expect Ghilli to be a big success?

I knew that it would be a great success but never expected it to be such a big hit. The credit goes to the good heart of A M Rathinam and director Dharani’s hard work. I was very happy to hear in several theatre complexes that they were running Ghilli in all the theatres. I was told that 12 shows were screened in one day.
So you are the number one?

I don’t know about that. All I know is that my fans have placed me in a good position but whether it’s a number one position I cannot say.
The song `Apidipodu’ is a big hit …

Credit goes to Vidyasagar. He has done a wonderful job with mass tunes. Dharani’s placement of the songs was correct. He was sure that when this song comes the audience would dance to it.
What is your role in Mathura?

I am a vegetable vendor in a market. The story has many surprise twists in it. Madhesh like Shankar has given a grand look to the film. There are six fights composed by Kanal Kannan. Sonia Agarwal is my heroine.
Which is your next film?

Thirupachi directed by Perarsu for Super Good films.
Don’t you attempt to do an offbeat role like changing your looks etc ?

I am doing roles, which suit my age. I have done so far 38 films. There is lot of time for all that. I don’t believe that a actor who does offbeat roles or changes his getup is doing his work whereas we who do commercial films are having a ball. To make a film a hit is not a joke. If we make one slip in a fight sequence the result can be very bad.
Which criticism of Ghilli did you like the most?

My friends and my family’s criticism is what I take very seriously. My friends tore to pieces my best films but this time they said `We cannot find fault this time’. My father who sat through the film came out and said `Good you have done well’. It was the comment from my mother and wife. They always point my mistakes.

Once upon a time there was an excellent news reporter named Rajdeep Sardesai. He split ways with  NDTV to start a new news channel amidst huge expectations. After seeing him in NDTV people hoped here was a TV channel which they could relate to and which will speak the truth.

But alas, how wrong were they….. After their site ratings fell after the abhi-ash wedding news died off. They chose a rather cheap gimmick to gain back their popularity. This event happened on July 02 2007 when a blog writer from ibnlive.com, Anuradha Sengupta(now fondly called as pig in the replies to her blog) was chosen to be the scapegoat  for this cheap gimmick.

They put up a review of tamil movie Sivaji. There is nothing wrong in reviewing a movie and putting a bad review to it but what was disheartening is that the esteemed lady does not understand Tamil and she chose to see the movie in a theatre with no subtitles. Which means she could not understand the head and tail of the movie. Moreover, the language she used and the way she has brought out her so called “frustration” is really disgusting and is not expected out of a respectable news channel ibnlive.com.

But then, after giving it a thought and after waiting for a day, we got to understand the real purpose of the blog. By wednesday July 03,2007 the number of replies to the blog stand at 965 . Now a computer prodigy can tell as to how much traffic this could have created in the site. Hence, in a day due to Sivaji the popularity of the site ibnlive.com grew . So apart from the 150 crores sivaji is supposed to make, this goes as an additional credit to the movie.

A small request to ibnlive.com. In future if you want to increase the traffic , we have some other wonderful suggestions which cannot be disclosed in public. There are lot of sites which generate more traffic .( Hope you got which sites we mean here).

A rotten apple spoils the entire basket. Hope, ibnlive.com continues to remain what it was a couple of days back.

Sincerely hope none of the other news channel follow suit.
