Rangi writings

Life gives us a lot of twists and turns. Some may be what we expected and some may not be. Expected may turn out unexpected and the vice versa can happen too. Of course it shouldn't always be the expected one. Sometimes even unexpected might be great like meeting  new friends whom we never know would turn out to be our best we met. Life is adventurous. It takes us to a lot of journeys where we succeed in a few places and tend to learn in a few places. I am a bit philosophical right! Yes I know I am. Today I came up with the word 'nonchalant' . A common word that we would have come across in many places. But this , to be honest, never stayed in my mind. I did come across this word and would have looked at the meaning for that moment. Today I again came across this word and when I asked chatgpt it said that 'a person who is calm, relaxed and unconcerned '. The Google that actually showed me the word defined that 'a person even in a hectic and confused position wo...

  Today was a tough day for me. My body is reacting with foreign elements I guess. I had to only take naps today because of the tiredness I had and the cold. Uninvited one but comes perfectly and which has to come. Fever, cold are symptoms that show our body is fighting with foreign elements that may have entered through dust or by other means into our body. So as an act of cleaning the system our cells will prepare to fight. A war will happen inside our body and this will definitely make us tired and feel drowsy. A time where we need to rest and supply our soldiers who are fighting inside with proper food because they are in a war zone so they may need more energy.  This action will help us kill the bacteria inside our body and it tests the immune system of our body which is very important for us both physically and mentally. We should keep ourselves hydrated at this time and eat a healthy diet in order to enhance the strength of the immune system.  As I was comparing th...

 I was talking about the scene in Ponniyin Selvan in yesterday's writing and today I got to see the movie on TV. And when I read yesterday's blog I got to see that around two passages I have written about a scene from this movie. Directed by one of my favourite directors, Mani Ratnam. I can actually keep speaking about his master pieces always.  Ponniyin Selvan is a historical fiction written by Kalki Krishnamoorthy on the setting of the Chola Dynasty, the powerful rule of the South. They were known for their war strategies, development of trade and war through sea routes, development in Architectures of temples and many more. They spread the shaivaite way following that is people who follow Lord Shiva. The Book is based on an internal conflict and using that they face war outside. Not a complete historical text but has some fictional characters involved in the story. The Book is actually of five parts and it was released in episodes in the Tamil magazine initially.  Thi...

Lakhs of knowledge was at a place. Fiction, non fiction, autobiographies, biographies, drama and many more were arranged in each stall. There were around 600 - 900 stalls and every one of them was filled with books. Books of all kinds and for every age group, from kids to old age. I am talking about the Chennai book fair and I visited it yesterday. My eyes were glittering like how would it be when I see treasure in front of me. In the Film Ponniyin Selvan - 1, which is actually a historical fiction written by Kalki Krishnamoorthy and it was taken as a film by director Mani Ratnam, there is a scene where Vanthiyathevan ( done by actor Karthi) will meet Nandhini ( played by Aishwarya Rai ) and there the former has to escape from the place they meet, so he will get through a underground passage. Nandhini will help him to get through the passage and before the door closes, for seconds Vanthiyathevan will get mesmerized in the Beauty of nandhini, because she is known for her beauty. She wi...

 Procrastination, laziness, next time, avoidance, forgot and phrases like "I can't do it" , "should I do it now?" and etc. are words and statements that always teaches us in life. My day of laziness let me miss a treasure. I am talking about not uploading my blog yesterday.  When I started to write blogs, one thing that I told myself was that even though I may not have solid content, I should write. In that way I thought I could improve my writing skills, take a step to learn even more and also see how my mind thinks and observes, the self observation thing, I could witness it.  Yesterday I started to write my blog and my topic was about observation that we do around us. It was an activity or can be called as a fun game that we played in our theatre practice. It was a part of the warm up session in theatre which will help us to analyse minute details of a play and a stage as well as to expand our mind in thinking about the play and its story. Because , I would h...

 A story said through performance is drama. Drama speaks out the emotions and a story not merely through words but also through actions. Each word can bring out an action. We would have played many role plays in our school days like a doctor, teacher, student etc and many more. Recollect your memory on what you would have played when you were 2 years old or so. We would have been at our playschool so not much homework was given and too young to play street cricket and other games that we would have played when we were at mid school level and higher level , on the streets. Parents won't allow us to move on the streets all alone and we also have to spend the rest of the day because our Playschool will maximum work for 2 to 4 hours that means half day. So to spend most of the time we would make our dad and mom as either students of our class and teach them ABC or make them our patients. Sometimes our Dad has to show his face so that we could apply makeup on them making ourselves as be...
