The idli kadai

At last yesterday watched the movie "idli kadai", by Dhanush.

“Idli Kadai” beautifully captures the peace, purity, and rootedness of village life - the calmness of one’s own land and the genuineness of simple living. It carries messages of parenting, honesty, and pure love, though it sometimes fails to connect emotionally or frame those themes deeply.

The hero’s affection for the “idli kadai” symbolizes his bond with roots and values, but the film misses emotional depth in moments like his silent rejection of the boss’s daughter. Still, it reminds us that real strength lies in goodness and forgiveness - that ahimsa can silence ego and violence.
But it has the reflections, avoiding the cinematic experience.

Yes beyond the film, it reflects today’s world — where money and power dominate, and the poor or minorities are the most vulnerable. Escaping such systems is a struggle. The movie subtly reminds us that one’s village, parents, and birthplace - the soil that made us human - still matter more than wealth or status. The film’s moral is that compassion and forgiveness disarm hatred , resonates deeply in such times.

When love and truth guide us, division loses meaning. The movie silently reminds us that our roots, our people, and our values are what truly keep humanity alive.

A one-time watch..!

Life - richness

 In today’s fast-paced world, many people equate success with wealth—luxury brands, high-end gadgets, and extravagant lifestyles. But while material riches can offer temporary pleasure, true enjoyment of life comes from a deeper, more meaningful place. In some Asian countries, there is often a focus on wealth and status, with success frequently measured by visible markers of prosperity—rich outfits, gadgets, and lifestyles. This culture of "showing off" can create an illusion of happiness. However, real joy and fulfillment are not found in outward displays, but in the inner peace that comes from meaningful experiences and personal growth. In contrast, many European cultures, such as those found in countries like Turkey, are rooted in rich life experiences and deep connections. There’s a strong emphasis on savoring the journey, whether it’s through shared meals, cultural traditions, or personal reflection. In these places, life’s value is measured not by material success but b...

Kalki and Dharma

 In the Puranas and epic legends, when adharma dominates, a smaller group always resists. According to Indian propaganda politics, those who stand for truth and justice are often labeled as terrorists. The movie "Kalki" portrays a similar canvas, where right-wing supporters constantly spread disinformation to incite hatred, paving the way for the mass destruction of humanity. The "Love Jihad" propaganda is a major tool for these groups. They call themselves think tanks, saints, nationalists, and protectors of culture, but in reality, they are rapists, hate mongers, betrayers, murderers, and some of the most heinous people on earth. If people think with reason, logic, and common sense, the hindutva agenda of hate politics and casteism would be crystal clear. Fortunately, we have brave journalists and activists who have struggled and provided proper evidence, investigative reports, and books to safeguard democracy and the social fabric.

Good vs Bad - Reflection

Throughout history, the pattern of righteous individuals being persecuted by oppressive authorities is a recurring theme. Whether through imprisonment, torture, or exile, many of the greatest minds, moral leaders, and freedom fighters faced suffering at the hands of the very powers that should have recognized their virtue. This age-old conflict between good people and unjust authorities serves as a reminder of the timeless struggle between truth and tyranny, light and darkness. From religious figures to political revolutionaries, many were imprisoned not for any crime, but for their ideas, their resistance to oppression, or simply because they represented a threat to the status quo. This article explores this historical pattern through key examples, from ancient times to the modern era.  Lord Krishna: Born in Captivity In Hindu mythology, Lord Krishna, one of the most revered deities, was born in a prison cell. His parents, Devaki and Vasudeva, were imprisoned by Devaki’s brother, ...
