Enjoyed watching #Scene. The cinema hall in Singapore was full.
It was good to see Suriya back in full form. Brought back the memories of Ghajini, Ayan time Suriya. The humour, action and the story line are excellent. One can watch with family.
I bought two tickets, but had to sell one away (S$268). Any friends from Singapore who are interested?
When I saw "Parking" (Tamil film), I thought that the story went unrealistic towards the end. I was wrong.

The serious discussions in X, about the characters in a recently released movie, reminds me of this discussion in Quora

Dear @Airtel_Presence, I feel like Will Smith Jr in I am legend, trying for the last two days to speak to a human being.
My wi-fi is currently behaving like India's first innings test performance on green tops, in and out, in and out.
Will you send me someone to help. Human please,
It can't be that tough being nice to someone who pays you for three connections.

People are debating which game is easier...
Thinking about baseball and cricket:
Why baseball is easy?
1. All balls a batter play are full tosses. No pitch influence.
2. There's swing in the ball but there are no spinners. You only face pacers.
3. The fielders only need to cover 90 degrees of the field - unlike cricket where the captain needs to set a tactical field covering 360 degrees.
4. All fielders can wear gloves, unlike cricket where the fielders, including the bowler takes a return catch in full speed have to field in empty hands.
Why baseball is difficult?
1. Your bat is not flat. If middling a ball is within 1 cm around the centre of a cricket bat, here it's mm. Tighter tolerance.
2. Batter has to score only in V.
3. Batter can't have more than 3 dot balls.
4. A pitcher can't get assistance from the pitch. (Pun, Irony)
In any case, in both the games, they play against the best players in their game. So, no game is better than the other. List your thoughts in quote.

Subroto Banerjee and Saurav Ganguly debuted almost at the same time (1991 or 1992). One of my friends, by mistake, said Subroto Ganguly and we used to make fun of him for a long time.
He was a tall, athletic medium-fast bowler who took 3 wickets for just 47 runs on his Test debut at the SCG dismissing Geoff Marsh, Mark Taylor and Mark Waugh.
Yet he never played another Test for India. Not even in the second innings of that match.
Despite coming from the MRF Pace Foundation and showing genuine promise on bouncy Australian pitches, his international career ended after that one game (plus a handful of ODIs).
What could be the real reason?
Injury?
Selection politics?
Lack of a “godfather” in the system?
Or something else?
One of Indian cricket’s quieter mysteries.

Singapore newspaper covers the news of Tamil music director Deva. During the funeral of our former president S.R. Nathan, Deva's song
தஞ்சாவூரு மண்ணு எடுத்து was played as per the wish of SRN.
Rest in peace
