Comment moderation changes on Dew

-
Hello Readers,

Thank you for your readership. Hope All is well with you and your folks. :-)

Of late, I have been noticing a lot of spam comments ( some automated and some intended) that disturb the very idea of being 'Dew' which is pure and clear. I am unable to let this disturbing factor seep in any further into my blog.

I don't quite like the idea that people have to sign-in to post comments on my blog or have to do a word verification to post a comment. Till three minutes ago, I had kept my blog open for anonymous comments as well. To continue being and living the Dew way, I had to impose verification rules on my blog, starting this post.

I trust you will understand this and wont mind doing a word verification or google sign-in when you are asked to. Please stand with me on this and help me keep Dewdrop going steady as always.

I value your comments and would like to continue knowing your views on my write-ups. Thought I must keep you posted on the way comments work on my blog from today. :)

Thanks a tonne,

Best,
Dew

How are you placed today?

A very common question I got asked over the last one month's time by many of my friends. The answer has to be simple: I have a, b, c things to do or 1, 2, 3 places to go to or i, ii, iii work to complete... and the like.. This is on the basic level and probably this question doesn't need too much thought or attention beyond this.. But, I did find this question quite disturbing. One evening, on my way back from a temple, I realized the answer to this question: Where ever we are at any given point in time, we are placed at the right position to serve the right purpose at the right time!!. Just that we do not realize it. There is no reason to fret about things ( I admit that I have not yet reached that level of maturity as I write this post but I definitely realize ) when they are not in your hands. Exam results for instance. You can only put your best until the paper leaves your hands. Now, if the evaluation will happen properly is something you have no control over. Sim

Sargam - A 1992 Movie Review

-
This is a malayalam movie directed by Hariharan. Probably everyone in Kerala would have watched this many times. I got a chance to watch this movie yesterday. Brilliant make - a nice mix of psychology and music. I could identify, Vineeth, Renuka, Thilagan, and Nedumudi Venu in the movie. I wouldnt know the rest of the stars but I must say the movie has been done very well and is set in the late seventies or so it seems. Or may be the nineties itself. I would not know such a set up because I grew up in Tamil Nadu. The whole movie has been shot in a bungalow of old times. They call it Kovilagam which seems to mean Temple. I assume that the ancestors of this family had once been very rich and provided for the families working for them and lived a kingly life with great taste towards traditional arts. The family in the movie seems to be richer as well and did have regards for arts, especially music. Kuttan Thamburan had epilepsy and his close pal, Hari was around right from childhood to ta

Thappad - A slap!

-
'Thappad' translates to Slap in English. I loved the lead lady's facial expression in the trailer, so I clicked 'Play' to watch the movie.  The storyline goes like this:  Amrita and Varun are happily married. Varun gets a senior role in London. The couple had been waiting to relocate to London. When the news of the promotion and the role officially came in Varun throws a party for a close circle of 40 people - professional and personal. The evening was fun-filled which directly translates to drinks, dance, food, and networking. The boss quietly tells Varun that the offer has been passed on to someone else, and Varun is going to stay in India. To everyone's disapproval and dismay, Varun loses his cool and yells at the boss and the other people whom he suspected may have had a corporate politics role-play behind the change of plans. Sensing that his behavior was probably because he was too drunk, Amrita tries to pull away Varun from the scene. Varun slaps her tigh
