How i Met Your Mother - Entertainment Guaranteed

" Haaaave you met Ted " says Barney and the show kicked off about 4 years ago. This show has everything that will make it go down as one of the greatest entertainers of all time. Barney's cool ways to get laid, Super-hot Robin, Ted's pathetic ways of being romantic, the endearing chemistry between Marshall and Lilly shows that this series is a definite winner.

When I first caught it on Star World, I was reminded of Friends a lot. The setup was very similar but after getting through the half of the first season, I found this very entertaining. The show is basically a narrative story about Ted who is telling his kids the story of how of he met their mom. Although it seems like he is saying a really long story, our heart needs it to continue by the fact that the show is really brilliant. Barney is a very intriguing character in the show and he is one of the best characters I have ever come across. (Series wise)

He shares the top honours with Chandler Bing (Friends) in my book.

In a life where girls and suits are the only important things to him, Barney is over flowing with awesome and sometimes makes me wonder if its possible for me to be Barney atleast once. The pranks, he makes are top notch and the song in the 5th season is very special. The episode entitled "The PlayBook"(ssn 5) is Barney's best one. He is a leeggaan(wait for it)ddary in the matter of easily getting into the pants of lame American women.

The credits from the rest of the cast cannot be taken in the matter that Robin is really really pretty, reminds me of Katrina Kaif. Ted is cool some times and forms a good pair with Robin. Marshall and Lilly's cute relationship completes the gang which seems to be one fun gang.

The show is so fun to watch that I catch it every wednesday on the internet, the day after it gets telecasted in CBS.

Gets 9/10 from me.

It Just takes to be a Monkey to Trap Fazil

I was on my way with Fazil to the Satellite canteen and we were about to leave the main building. We saw a couple of girls there and let me name them Samosa and Puffs ( to avoid controversy true names of the girls are not portrayed). So samosa was sitting and eating something and Puffs was near her.

Fazil turns into a hero

So we a see a monkey going towards samosa and I told Fazil that it was going for the thing that samosa was holding in her hand. Puffs, who was near samosa did not seem to bother much by the monkey but Fazil suddenly for an instant turns into a hero and shouts out "Hey monkey monkey!!!!" in an attempt to save samosa.

Monkey Gives Bulb to Fazil

Actually it seemed the monkey was going in all different direction which was very obvious by the reactions of puffs and Fazil the "saviour" did not know as he was attempting a hero act. Trust me, if the monkey had really gone for her , I might have seen him flying like Rajnikant in Chandramuki shouting " Samosaaaa un pinadi monkeeeeey ". But thanks to God, the monkey did not and so Fazil ended up getting a big bulb.

Mithun Makes an Unexpected Appearance

After the entire thing was over and me getting to see the "hero" in Fazil for an instant there, we turn and there stands Mithun in a very intriguing pose and Fazil was busted once again, thanks to the monkey. Mithun joined me in teasing the crap out of Fazil.

It was one of those of days where you get to see the criminal getting caught red handed in front of all and this was very special. This event gave rise to same old famous, mysterious and unanswered question....

"Bhai nallavana kettavana???"

Ganesh Storms out of Teens in Style

It took 7 guys and a girl to architect Ganesh's birthday party. The following is what we went through before making a memorable Birthday for Mr Duck.

Date : 10 JAN - "Dai Ganesh Birthdayku ena da panna porom???"

We start planning for the birthday. We wanted to throw a surprise and as every trick form our book were already put in action, we dint know where to start.

Date : 13 JAN - Gobikaa joins us

After 3 days of planning nothing, we thought we finally are now going to really make a good progress when Gobikaa joined us as we thought she would give us lots of information and she would already have a plan by now. To our surprise, she was making things worse. She was asking us to make it a really big event. But as things unfolded, she was one of the main reasons behind the success of our plan.

Date : 14 JAN - We move away

As it was festival time, we guys could not be together to plan the thing and that came in as a huge blow. Every one of us were really busy and we had only two days to plan the entire thing out and we were not doing anything useful.

Date : 15 JAN - Efforts go in vain

So on 15th we finally started planning the thing seriously with lots of phone calls flying around the city and messages were sent to guys more than to girls by us!!!! Still on the day's end we still were no where.

Date : 16 JAN - A Plan - Fiiiiiiiiiinally

We came up with a couple of plans and finalised one. Although we liked it, we had a small feeling that something better can be done. Finally at dusk we came with a plan that was better than the previous and decided to stick with it.As usual we made the Traditional conference phone call by 12 in the night to wish him.

Date : 17 JAN - The MainEvent

Cast :(in alphabetical order) Gowthaman, Mithun, Gobikaa, Rajkumar, Rajesh, Ravi, Shriram, Sikkandar, Zeeshan.

Part - I

Venue : Ganesh's Home

Plan : Throw the worst surprise party ever!!!

So we planned the first part to throw a bad surprise party at Ganesh's home. We asked his bro to take him out so we could sneak in and hide before he comes. But Ganesh was in no mood to get out of the home so we decided to sneak in to his home even when he is in. We were very excited and we were moving like soldiers hiding from the enemy and initially we entered the wrong street and were going somewhere else. Then compensating for the every unexpected mistakes we made, we went in and to our surprise we threw one real sucking surprise party. We did not act. We were just being ourselves and the party was going really bad(Ganesh's reactions showed this). We had executed the first part well.

Part - II

Venue - Tiruparankundram Park

Plan - To Prove that Amigos can pull off any kind of Birthday Party!!!

The plan was to make Ganesh come to park and take him off guard completely. So he arrived to the trap we set with Gobikaa and the plan was set in motion. Guys joined them from all around the park one by one and I must say that he was really surprised to see us. He was asked to complete 3 tasks to get his final 3 gifts

• Propose to a Tree
• Fall in the legs of the tree to which he just proposed
• Speak out his trademark dialogue before everyone once more

He did everything to perfection and got his final gifts. The event was made more entertaining with a special message from Mani Sundar that made everyone get some interesting stories of Ganesh before March 18th and it was really fun to see Fazil taking Ganesh down and hard once. Fazil was doing some good revenge work.

The day was made a great one and all of us enjoyed the whole day thoroughly and it was extra special because the always "busy" Rajkumar was with us the whole day.

KKR - Down but not Dead !!!

Two editions of Indian Premier League has passed us and the third is set to start in India from March 12. Kolkata Knight Riders has an impressive squad Akhtar, Gayle, Mendis, Ponting, McCullum and the skipper Sourav made the outfit look formidable. but this team faced absolutely nothing but defeats in the 1st 2 editions.

IPL 3

Back in India, IPL 3 kicks off form mid march and the KKR squad was the first team to start the practise. Wasim Akram was brought from Pakistan to give special insights and expert opinions on team's performance and the new coach Dav Whatmore have made the camp positive and are jelling with the team well.

Bond in, Ponting out

"KKR Bonds with Pace" read the newspapers after the IPL 3 auction was over. The Kiwi pacer was bought for a huge sum of money to share the new ball with Ishant Sharma. KKR also terminated its contract with the Aussie skipper who has announced that he wont be available for IPL 3 so as to make room for an extra player.

Bengal Tiger returns to the Rightful Throne

SRK re instates Saurav as KKR's skipper and there was no one better for such a job and such a situation in the whole country. Saurav took our national side form no where to beating the top teams in the world consistently and this situation is tailor made for him to show the world that he still is one of the best captains India has ever had.

Will KKR break the Jinx???

With the new captain, new coach, addition of one of the world's fastest bowlers and the biggest factor of being able to play in front of the home crowd rejuvenate the riders and make the other teams look ridiculously short in talent???

Waiting to see The Knight Riders rise from the ashes and take a successful ride through the nation. Even though I am near Chennai, I ll always " CHEER FOR KOLKATA, BE A KNIGHT RIDER "

Pongal Kicks Off with Ayirathil Oruvan

So the day began with me returning to my home town for pongal by 4 in the morning. It was 9 in the morning when a school friend of mine called me up in the phone and asks if we can catch the much awaited Ayirathil Oruvan in the morning and I said hell ya.

The following is a very short review of the movie which is expected to take tamil cinema to the next level.

I am not here to say the stoy line but just what I thought of the movie. The movie is a typical Selvaragavan. He has tried to make a movie work without love being involved between a guy and a girl. The genre is adventure and I must say the movie has succeeded a fair bit in living upto the expectation. The main characters Karitk, Andrea, Reema Sen and Parthiban had done justice to their respective roles and when you get to see Parthiban's dance, sure makes you wonder why not give dance a try. Although some places in the movie remind us of the Hollywood Blockbusters 300, Troy, LOR, Mummy Returns we have to give credit to the director for such an attempt in a industry where name has a better value than talent.

Second half could have been made a bit smaller. Graphics could have been made better and the climax sequence makes us pray God to end the movie soon. There are some flaws in logic too.I am pointing the mistakes because Its a proven fact that the human mind first sees at the flaws at anything new and I am no diffrent. But everything aside the movie is a treat to watch and go catch it on big screens.

i would give it 8/10.

Mithun "Mr Ephemeral" Ganesh

Ephemeral is a intra-departmental culturals hosted by EEE in TCE. Mithun in III EEE A aka AGNISIRARS was seen working his hearts out for the event even two weeks prior to the grand event. The only words that came out of his mouth were that he was practising, practising and practising. We thought he was over exaggerating and putting in too much of efforts that the event actually demanded.

He was working day and night for his class' sake. He was almost in every event that was in the list and was his class' biggest hope. He had to face the responsibility of not making a complete fool out of himself and give a good show because a "special" person was supposed to be present to see Mithun perform.

Will he pull it off??

The day was 10th Jan. it was the day, Mithun had one whole day to show everyone what he is made of. In his favour his class was in a comfortable position after the Off stage events the previous day. Every move he made, worked to perfection. Every event he participated had his name as one of the winners. Mithun was in business. Eventhough the much anticipated "zoo zoo" dance did not click, Mithun was way ahead in performing better than anyone present there.He was doing some serious kick ass performance.

Then finally, the time arrived to announce this years Mr Ephemeral, the most coveted prize every guy in EEE department dreams off. The name was called and auditorium erupted, Mithun was choosen as the winner. Was it destiny?? Was it Fate?? Was it sheer luck?? People witnessed the show had a completely different answer, they said it was sheer "Talent". The King has arrived and took his class to victory and Agnisirars emerged champs.

Mithun rose to the pinnacle and took his class with him.

Fazil Busted on his Birthday

Where do I start??? Hmm..Here it goes

The final plan was finalised just seconds before the clock hit 00:00 hrs on 4th jan. The plan was panned out for the entire day with traps set for Fazil the entire day and guess what, He fell for every trap we set and i was extra happy because I got to see his way of "finding the clues" very near.

The Plan:

Organize a Treasure Hunt as if hosted by girls and see how he reacts when we said his destiny is waiting in the pump house with the birthday gift.

Cast:

Shriram, Mithun, Surya, Gowthaman, Ganesh, Zeeshan, Rajesh, Shobana, Virasundari and Sitalakshmi(Guest Appearance)

The Show:

So it began by morning by 7 30 and he was sent the rules. The game began with the 1st clue by 9 and it went well till the last one and he "successfully" completed the entire task. He was supposed to meet his "destiny" by 4 30 to get his gift, when he came with all the hopes of meeting the girl of his dream, came out were 7 guys and Fazil was in total shock. Finally everything fell in places for him and he finally figured that the whole thing was done by 6 of his best friends(guys). Birthday cake was cut and the gift was given.

Fazil's Classic Comedies:

• Not telling Mithun that "girls" have planned a thing for him when he met morning.
• Thinking Gowthaman is the answer for every question.
• Not remembering anything about what guys said in the past.
• Thinking once that he is the answer.
• Trying to escape after being caught red handed.

P.S. We made him to roam the entire street looking for us by calling him up in conference call and telling we are standing outside with the cake.

My First Blog - A Review

Its time for me finally to step into blogging and the first blog is about what else than a movie review.

Ocean's 11



I know its a bit late for me to review one of my most favourite movies but what the hell... Here it goes..

Directed by Steven Soderberg, this movie had everything to become a blockbuster and it became one. The cast had huge celebrities like Pitt, Clooney, Roberts and Damon. The genre is robbery and it portrays that anything in this world can be robbed if the best minds of the earth come together. This is a thorough entertainer, so if you had not seen it yet, go get a dvd and catch it once and trust me its worth watching once...
