Very sad news and nearly after 8 years it brought tears in my eyes for someone who passed away. Eventhough he's 72 but still cant digest his death.
Sujatha+ananda vikatan helped me a lot in learning Tamil. The first novel i read by Sujatha is "AAH" it came in 1990 (no time for verification now). All the episode ends with the letter "AAH" and eventhough i dont get the whole meaning of the novel at that time...i simply enjoyed reading it. Then his science fiction and physics works, he got amazing talent in conveying the message in common man language, lots of examples for that, this is one such: when he explains analog and digital signal, he wrote "Analog signal is like curve and digital signal is 36-28-36" what more explanation do you want????
he got many significant achievements, like inventing\re-designing the voting machine for Indian vote system, making science fiction a concept to write stories, registered his day-to-day life as "Katrathum Petradhum"...too many to pen down. I am emotionally struck to write minute details...
I take this time to thank him for all his work....
PS: will write some minute details soon. I wrote this in English coz the reach will be higher. will definitely write abt him in Tamil also.

World Movies - UTV
I love Movies, doesnt matter which language it's made. I observe movies to great extent. fine, now to the point.
I happened to tune the TV searching for ESPN (this cable operator gives sports channel of his choice) and suddenly strucked at a channel. It's UTV channel called "World Movies". I should really thank the cable operator for providing such a wonderfull channel. In the weekend, amidst my roomie's interruption , managed to watch 3 movies. 2 french and 1 spanish. Beleive me all three are awesome !!!!! here's the synopsis:
The Clean Machine: French.
Cleanly this stands out of any normal movies. It's about few kids starting a company for cleaning the house which includes services like gardening, grass cutting etc., The story starts with the ego clash, traitor inside and all that a real company could have face. You feel like it's big corporate company and it's CEO is under tremendous pressure due to illoyal employees\partners and how he's gonna succeed all the hurdles......u should watch it !!!!! (they start the company at the start of vacation and closes at the end of vacation)
best scene: 4 yr old kid calling for strike and marching in front of the company...it's soo lovely !!!!!
The Art of Losing: French (i think this is french)
A little serious movie about aquiring a land and series of events occuring while 2 mobsters trying to steal the original document. This movie is also nice but u should have little patient to watch this. Also i m tired to give minute details because the movie is heavy and consists of lots of minute details !!!! so watch it for yourself :-)
The longest penalty in the world: Spanish
Just reminds me "chennai-600028" in world class standard. It's a full length comedy movie and casting was extra-ordinay. All those simple faces makes lots of impression in you. the story:The championship for 6th division, final match between estrella Vs some other spanish team. Match lead by estrella with 1-0, when 1 min is left , refree calls for a stupid penalty and the goalie of estrella gets dis-located his shoulder with the crash. So the sub-goalie is called in , home crowd gets frenzy and match is called-off. The football federation discuss the issue and announce that the penalty will be taken in one week time. so the estrella team got 1 week to prepare their stupid goalie to defend the goal...wat happens next and climax is all comedy of errors !!!!!!!! I'm sure u'll laugh for atleast 1 week after watching this movie.
best scene: thepractice session in which coach instructs him wat has to be done to stop the goal...that 5 mins training u'll laugh like hell !!!!!
