Fifth phase of elections...Today!!

The D-day is finally here...May 13 don't how many people were waiting for this day to franchise their votes...This is the second time I voted...And the only person from my family to vote this time...No other members name was in the voting list...What an irony?? My parents have been voting for so many years now and I wonder how their names were left out this time...Anyways I left home to do my duty as soon as possible and thereby escape from the queue...But,as usual there was a long queue in the polling booth...I waited patiently in the queue for my turn...Suddenly I noticed that the ID card I had in hand was my sisters.All the way back I came home to pick up my card.Though the polling booth is at stone's throw from my residence , leaving the queue to fetch my ID card meant paving way to some more people to vote ahead of me...The corporation school where i voted had two wards...no 71 and 72...As in the previous time I voted ward 71 was deserted but since I belong to ward 72 I could not bear the fruit from that solitary ward...:)...When i returned back with my card few more people were assembled to cast their franchise ahead of me...Well...cant make samjauta to those elder ladies ki aunty i stood before you so pave way for me...That will end up in a chaos similar to a fish market...:)...After sometime my turn came...My finger was brushed with a blue colored ink....then I voted to the candidate of my choice...Wah!!! Gives an unique pleasure .... Cast your franchise and experience t..

Actress Revathy...a multifaceted person...!!!

Born as Asha Kelunni and rechristened as Revathy , to mark her entry into filmdom, this petite actress has managed to cast a spell on innumerable people's hearts . Unlike other actresses, she chose to grab people's attention not by skin show but by her unique acting skills. She was one of the few actresses with a girl-next-door image and someone you instantly feel you know her for ages..She has acted in about 90 movies in various languages like Tamil,Malayalam,Hindi and Telugu.Revathy is a proud owner of five film fare awards.


The first time i saw her was in a movie ,some 12 years ago.The movie happened to be "Mouna Ragam" where she portrayed a newly married girl haunted by her lover's memory, who dies on the very same day when they decide to marry. Just mind blowing!!! The minute expressions in the whole movie...Ah the thought itself makes me feel nostalgic...This further aroused me to know more about her and see the other roles she played...Down the memory lane ,I don't know how many times I have watched "Punnagai Mannan",another classic where Revathy played a demanding role. May it be "Anjali",where she acted as the mother of a abnormal child or "Thevar Magan" where she played an innocent village belle ,she suited the character very well.
Not only serious roles suit her who can forget her comedy in the flick "Magalir Mattum"??Just fantastic..

Apart from being a wonderful actress on screen ,Revathy is a humanist in real life.The number of NGO's she is associated with proves that.an ardent believer in reaching out to people her charm and polite way of conversing is her highlight.She is a volunteer in Sevalaya, The Banyan, Ability foundation and Vidya Sagar. Truly one in a million ,who does not publicise the welfare activities she does.Simply superb Revathy!!..Let you be revered as a epitome to lead many more people to such organisations...

Well just information about this sweet lady and her activities is inspiring...Isn't it?? Am waiting to have a glimpse of her ...May that day come soon in my life...!!!

Decisions..

Decisions are hard to make,when you are the one being directly or indirectly affected by it. But when you get an opportunity to help others decide you yourself will experience the flow of ideas you get.But in your case you are in short of ideas...There is nothing to worry...Happens with everybody but differs from person to person in the way they handle it.
Whenever you are determined to make a decision analyze the situation first...Make a note of the positive and the negative points before making a conclusion...Discuss with your well wishers.They might give you valid points.Consider their views but finally decide considering all the points.
