new arrivals of elegance..!

this week has had one of my best shopping sessions.. a total number of four silk sarees together has given me a kind of contentment for my desire for sarees.. they are always in and looks great on anyone and everyone and i am not an exception.. i love dressing up and especially sarees have been in my passion list since i was old enough to drape one.. and every time i do, i get to hear a number of compliments..

silk turns any ordinary one into an exclusive piece.. royal, elegant and perfect.. so without any hesitation i decided to go on with silk sarees this time as my birthday gift option and diwali outfit.. pretty good collection, should say.. can't wait to get myself dressed in..!

golu celebrations..!

it was all kanna's idea.. he was very much into having the golu this year.. reason one was athu, as he would enjoy it for sure.. second, kanna loves to have guests and friends at home and this would really be a cause for it.. i was not that keen in the thought because it i knew that all the work stuffs would end up in my hands.. and economical reasons were also in my mind..

at last it was decided just three days before the festival season could start and it commenced with the shopping of the dolls.. it kept us occupied for 3 days to finish of with all the shopping.. we invited some of our close friends of which most made it up to be a part of our festive season.. i was literally drained at the end of every day as i had to work on with too many tasks all alone.. but its occasions like these that let us have our close ones near.. it was good to see our place filled.. and mama is a must to be mentioned.. without him it could not have been this much special.. he put all his effort and interest in making it a traditional one.. his presence made us feel a family..

kichu, vichu, shan, sri, srividhya, ashok, vembu, priya, gayathri, rose, vijay, rajesh, revathy, pooja, babloo, udhyam mama, vennila akka, athai, rajesh sir and his wife, ajjima, sangeetha, bala, ragulan, sham, balaji km and his mom, akka, mama, appu, vara, rajesh mom and dad, sri kutty and kanchu, balaji,ragu and soo many.. made it a happening event.. awaiting for the next season of fun, friends, snacks and work..!

century.. and counting more..!

with the release of Eeram i have turned 100 movies old which literally means that i have been the voice of the female leads for more than 100 movies now.. and to my surprise i have coincidentally had the total feel of contentment for my work only with this film.. this century has not only been a count of numbers.. each and every count has been a powerful tool in my growing and learning sessions.. working with soo many directors of which some are truly inspiring and loaded with talents has helped me acquire the nuances of my art and to amend my errors..

and one fact that i am really proud of with this count is that most numbers of this have left me with the chance of lending my voice for performance oriented roles rather than just being a part of a successful movie or a big budget/banner one.. stuffing a character with life has always been a challenging task that has made my work interesting..

filled with contentment, satisfaction and pleasure and clear of not to make pride my choice, i have now passed century.. and counting more..!

24 years young..!

13th of September was the day.. neither celebration nor special.. the best thing was to hear my athu wishing me happy b'day.. i was on top of the world when he uttered those words in his own language..! thank you athu doggie..! was to erode for an unavoidable reason.. kind of an usual day.. but much boring.. felt incomplete as usual.. just another year of all my routine schedules..

eeram..

and i am the voice of sindhu menon in this romantic suspense horror/thriller.. have not watched too many of my movies on big screen as i don't get attached to my work personally.. but right from the start this film created an eagerness to watch out for.. only very few of my other movies have made me feel so.. finally after watching the premier, i felt so much satisfied and complete with my work that i usually don't find in most of my other works even if others do.. of late, i have had soo many good offers and opportunities to showcase my talents with excellent characters coming my way through out..

priya in ullam ketkume, barathi in abcd, azhagamma in mirugam, ammu in ammuvagiya naan, meera in kadhalil vizhunden, saroja in pattiyal, abi in abiyum naanum, mari and seeni in poo, angel in laadam, shobikannu in pasanga, ramya in eeram.. all these characters have had my best work and will always be the most cherished ones of all.. at last, i have started believing that i am worth it..!

at this moment..

life has been the best teacher in my case.. it has not only made me realise what i truly am from within, but what everyone are and could be.. faith, respect, truth, love, passion, anger, depression, happiness, trust.. meanings of terms like these have been changing by time and i think i have almost found what it could figuratively mean.. nobody is perfect.. and i too am nobody.. but that will never be a blocker in my way to reach it.. i could actually realise the transformation of me into a whole new one.. after all, this was the real image of myself right from the start.. the process has began and is shaping up my mind and soul.. sooner or later, i will reach to what i am looking for..

ganapathi bappa moriya..!

was a packed day for me! planned to wake up early at 6 and set my alarm too.. but it was at 7.30 i happened to realise that it was dawn.. but i am not to be blamed as it is at 2 or 3 , i mostly get to go to bed.. and it was as usual on this day too.. as it was a delay, all my plans got collapsed.. but some what managed and it turned out a perfect festive.. i just love to get into the rangoli art and it was a day that gave me a chance to get back after a long gap.. had to sweep and mob and it is not a new task as it is one of the things that falls in my everyday scedule.. then had to wash the vessels as the maid was on leave.. the menu for the day was a little longer.. sweet kozhukattai, paal kozhukattai, sundal, vadai, sambar and potato curry.. athu is now a grown boy and he joined kanna in the purchase of the ganesha idol this year! we had few of our friends with us and after the formal pooja, we had our lunch, a nap, played shuttle and spent the evening with athu doggie! actually i enjoyed the day..! though i am not a total worship freak, i make it a point not to punch it on others.. so i go with almost all the celebrations and customs..
i don't pray mostly.. and if i do, it was always for others.. and this year too, it was for all my loved ones i took my prayers to the ears of ganesha.. may god grant them all and let everyone be happy..!
