Kaanal Neer - support the guy...JK Ritish(JK Tyre wud have been better)...jus for fun...


Chinni Jayanth has earned a reputation for his comical roles on silver screen. But the actor has opted to go the opposite way in his directorial venture Kaanal Neer.Not just his role,even the most serious scenes in the movie look comical. He has rendered a serious film that dwells on friendship. Besides wielding the megaphone, the veteran comedian has essayed the lead role in the movie and has come up with a movie that is serious competition to TR's Veerasamy.

Though it is a beaten-to-bush story, Chinni Jayanth, with lesser known artistes around, has tried his best to come up with an engrosser to compete with TR.

J K Ritheesh makes his debut in the movie. Playing Chinni's friend, Ritheesh has donned a macho-man's role(he does look like one...not jus macho...much more..!!!) in the movie. Newcomer Manisha plays the heroine.(the usual heroine...only for songs...pesama guest role la one song kku one heroine aada vechirukkalaam...that wud have been better...atleast for watching !!!)

STORY:(it was tuff to find this...so took it from indiaglitz...and added my modifictions there itself..)

The movie revolves around Pari (Chinni Jayanth), the only heir to a rich and influential zamindhar (Devan)...(paatu la chance kadaikkaama inga vantaar...paavam) in a village. His parents die in a mishap and he is take care by his greedy and evil uncle Durai Singam (Ambuli....ambuli naa moon...aana ivar night maathiri irukkar). With an ulterior motive to enjoy Pari's wealth, Durai Singam ensures that Pari turns lunatic.(Even when he is not lunatic,he sounds like one only)

A mentally deranged Pari grows up with his friends Rajavel (Ritheesh) and Sakthi (Sarathjith). Rajavel and Sakthi take care of Pari and spend all their time with him. Sequence of events results in Durai Singam planning a conspiracy to get Pari married to Lakshmi (Manisha), a young girl living in the village, only to ensure that he continues to enjoy the wealth. The rest is how Lakshmi, Rajavelu and Sakthi join hands to cure Pari of his mental illness and teach Durai Singam a lesson.(itha super a kamichirukkanga...ghajini mathiri edukka paathu veerasaamy oda mosama irukku..!!)

Chinni Jayanth has played similar roles in his earlier films Kizhakku Vasal and Chinna Pulla. Having utilized the opportunity, Chinni has come up with right emotions.(very rite...nadikka ve venam avar...sambadicha panatha laam ipdi waste panraar e..avar sathyama lunatic thaan). Ritheesh has made a good beginning(Already a "strong" fan club...go n see all the new superstar banners outside udhayam theatre) He is at ease in the stunt sequences(courtesy his "macho"...unlike dhanush,him bashing up the villain's loud assistants looks better to watch")

Also in the cast includes Sathyapriya, Alex, Pandu, Suja (romba kasta pattu ivanga pera laam kandupidichen) and Scissor Manohar(seriaaana blade...). Suresh and Bobby have come up with some hummable tunes.(they buzz like the bees in ur ears after hours after watching the movie)

VERDICT:don't miss this movie...must watch comedy movie...

Are we moving in the rite direction?

As the dust settles on the dramatic announcement of the Board of Control for Cricket in India, there's a distinct shift discernable in the stances adopted by the parties involved. What was building up into a confrontation is now simmering into a game of cat and mouse, the two board and the players attempting to resolve what could be a highly contentious issue and one impacting future generations of cricketers.

On Sunday Rahul Dravid became one of the first international captains - if not the very first - to send out a media release himself. Beyond that fact lay its significance: The tone of Dravid's statement was distinctly conciliatory, and praised the board for their efforts in the past regarding the treatment of players. It would be safe to assume that he consulted his team-mates, and members of the board before issuing a statement; that had the desired effect of cooling down an overheated atmosphere.

In any case, there are firm reasons to assume a solution will be found. Although the board has sent out some strong signals, a lot of this is just posturing. The worst-case scenario - the players' refusal to sign contracts and agree to the new terms - may be a remote prospect but it is frightening enough. It will leave Indian cricket severely devalued. Aside from the fact that the team may not be as successful on the field, the stakeholders who fork out huge sums of money for television rights and advertising will not accept a second-string Indian team simply because there is a lock-out.

The stakes are so high in Indian cricket - unlike in West Indian cricket, where half a dozen cricketers recently refused to sign contracts in a similar row and were simply jettisoned - that ultimately the board needs the big players, the Tendulkars, Dravids and Gangulys, if they are to earn the huge revenues that they do.

From the players' point of view, the threat of a lock-out or strike, is the last possible option for they too need the board. It's not as though a player can simply walk away from playing for India and ply his trade elsewhere in international cricket. The other option, equally unsavoury, is the legal route - the players are aware that their cause will not be well served by battling the likes of Shashank Manohar and Arun Jaitley. And even if they do win, they could still lose - by simply being dropped from the team.

What could help in the negotiation process is the board's proposed system of payments, which it hasn't yet communicated to the players. The bare facts are that the basic match fee will be reduced and incentives will be provided for winning (and drawing) matches and series.

It's understood that some players are not keen on the reduction of the basic match fee (currently Rs 160,000 per ODI, Rs 250,000 per Test) and are likely to push for an increase there and a cutback in the win bonus. However, an analysis of the proposed fee structure shows that the players stand to gain several fold through the winning incentive. Cricinfo applied the proposed fee structure (see table below) to the two most recent full bilateral series, home and away (vs England, home, 2005-06 and vs South Africa, away, 2006-07).

England tour of India, 2005-06 (Tests 1-1, ODIs 5-1)
Match fee Ind. win bonus Ind draw bonus Team series bonus
per player Total
Tests 600000 500000 300000 500000 1.9m
ODIs 700000 1.5m - 330000 2.53m
Total 4.43m

India tour of South Africa, 2006-07 (Tests 1-2, ODIs 0-4)
Match fee Ind. win bonus Ind draw bonus Team series bonus
per player Total
Tests 600000 600000 - - 1.2m
ODIs 500000 - - - 500000
Total 1.7m

India in Bangladesh, 2007 (if India win Tests 2-0, ODIs 3-0)
Match fee Ind. win bonus Ind draw bonus Team series bonus
per player Total
Tests 400000 1.2m - 1.0m 2.6m
ODIs 300000 900000 - 500000 1.7m
Total 4.3m
All figures in Indian Rupees

Under the old system for the England series, the players would have earned Rs 750,000 for the three Tests and Rs 1.12 million for the ODIS, a total of Rs 1.97 million. With the same results (1-1 Tests, 5-1 ODIs) in the new system the players would receive Rs 4.43 million each for the series.

Against South Africa, India lost the Tests 2-1 and the ODIs 4-0 with one match abandoned. Under the old system they would have been paid Rs. 1.55 million. Under the new system, even those ordinary results would see them netting Rs 1.7 million.

The whopper would be the forthcoming series against Bangladesh. If India make a clean sweep of the 2-Test, 3-ODI series, and that is not implausible, they will make Rs. 4.3 million each . In the old system their efforts would have netted them Rs. 980,000.

As the players wait to be formally informed of the fee structure, what is further confusing the issue is the fact that different members of the board have voiced different opinions in the media.

The BCCI is yet to decide when it will pick the team for the Bangladesh tour but an official confirmed to Cricinfo that it would not be before April 15. This gives the board some time to finalise drafts of contracts for the 25 or so players it intend to employ, and then get into negotiations over any clauses that differences might arise.

Shows Manchester United's domination...

Manchester United's Cristiano Ronaldo has been named both PFA Player and Young Player of the Year.

The Portuguese winger was widely expected to take the main award and his remarkable season continued as he scooped both awards on Sunday evening at the Grosvenor House Hotel.

Ronaldo becomes only the second player in history to achieve the remarkable feat, the other being Sky Sports' own Andy Gray - who won both awards some 30 years ago in 1977.

Ronaldo held off competition from Chelsea's Didier Drogba in second and team-mate Paul Scholes - who came third - to take the main award. Steven Gerrard, Ryan Giggs, and Cesc Fabregas were also in the running.

Ronaldo succeeds Gerrard and is the first United player to take the Player of the Year prize since Ruud van Nistelrooy in 2002.

In contrast, it is the third year in succession that a United player has taken the Young Player of the Year award - with team-mate Wayne Rooney winning the honour in 2005 and 2006.

Rooney was up for the award again, but he was beaten by Ronaldo as he also held off competition from Cesc Fabregas (Arsenal), who came second, and Aaron Lennon (Tottenham Hotspur) in third.

Micah Richards (Manchester City) and Kevin Doyle (Reading) were also up for the award.

Team of the Year....

Edwin Van der Sar, Gary Neville ,Rio Ferdinand,Nemanja Vidic,Patrice Evra,Ronaldo,Scholes,Gerrard,Giggs,Drogba,Berbatov

8 out of the 11 are Manchester United players.The defence fully belongs to Man utd showing their domination.
