Rahman blows my mind off!

For those who don't know,here's some thing that'll make u green wid envy.

I attended the Times of India sponsored A.R.Rahman concert!There were more than 50,000 people in attendance.The main reason being that we all got free passes.

It's a gr8 way for the TOI to start their activities in chennai.I'm sure they'll kick Hindu out in a couple of years.The amount of info in the paper makes me glued to it for almost and hour.

Coming back to the concert,well, it blowed me off my feet.Myself along with 8 other college mates set the ground on fire(if not the stage).All the hits of A.R.Rahman over the years were performed by leading singers like Shankar Mahadevan,Hariharan,Naresh Iyer,Madhushri,Chinmayi,Blaaze,etc.Also on the drums was none other than the flamboyant Sivamani.

The show started with a bang with the arrival of rahman on the stage with the song "Thalapathy" from ATM.The response from the audience was deafening.The atmosphere was energetic and the environment frolicking with excitement.

Almost all songs of Jodha Akbar, Guru were sung as well as hit numbers from ATM,Sivaji,vettaiyadu vellaiyadu,Kandukondein,etc.A.R. also sang his UN "Pray for my brother" song.

The "Vande Mataram" song was a fitting finale for the 3.5 hr long concert.

The KarmaYudh Starts

Yes, you guessed it right fellas,the IPL has started.And what a match it was with Kolkata KnightRiders kickin Bangalore Royal Challengers in a grand way.

And the main credit goes to.....well not DADA but a Brendan McCullum with im scorin 75% of the team's runs.Kolkata made 222 in their 20 overs out of which he made in the 150's.It was a gr8 time watching Bangalore getting bundled out for 78.

I'm confident the knight riders will win the IPL hands down.

Lunch @ the Babu's

Well,I had lunch for the 1st time at the Famed "Babu Kadai" adjacent to the college.It turned out going there was simpler than expected.Today the watchman was rather easy on us and allowed us to go thro the gate instead of the preferred wall jumpin route.

The food there is simply marvelous atleast better than the stupid canteen food I am subjected to daily!With egg and chicken curry what more could I ask for.

With the attendance records stopped last week,that meant we could freely bunk or miss classes without missing attendance.We had to skip the English period but who really cares!!!

For those who don't know,Babu Kadai is just another hut where 15 guys can sit .The environment is right next to the killer NH4 highway.sweating and eating is a unique experience(no fans or ac's here)...

What better way to spend time at the Pennalur Penitentiary than the famed Babu kadai.

PS:No Nair kadai for me(I don't puff).
