I have not yet watched the movie. But have been hooked to the songs since last week. I always find Rehman's music like wine, it sounds better the more you listen to it. In this album, I just loved 'Usurey POgudhey'. Karthick's voice, the modulation, the feel and of course the fantastic lyrics is mind blowing. At the 5.05 min of the song i.e. during the 'akkarai seemaiyayil...' line there is a violin (I think) which is my favourite bit in the entire song.
I also listened to the hindi version 'Behne De'. Although rendered by same Karthick.. yen Usuru .. ‘Usurey Pogudhu’ ku pinale than Pogudhu !!!
Although I have not watched the movie yet, have seen glimpses of Aishwarya's imaculate beauty captured by Santosh.Spectacular.
The next one is Kaatu siruki.. I usually do not prefer Anuradha Sriram, I feel she is too loud and bold but in this one she is just apt and excellent. Shankar ofcourse, ketkave vendam, excellent... Both of them are very loud and strong voiced singers, I feel. They both have blended really well and delivered this lovely song with enjoyable lyrics and fine composition really impressively.
Again, Ranjha Ranjha is good but Kaatu Siruki is my preference.

Lunch Break.
My lunch break today was slightly different from the mundane usual one.
I decided to take a walk in the direction I just wanted to. Out of the office building took the left (which I have never been before) I walked for just five-seven minutes and found The Tower of London. Lots of excited tourists, many other regular trying to relax in the park, pigeons and the beautiful Thames River. I always love to watch people especially on a sea/river side. I must also say I like the view of the Thames from the Tower Bridge. I was surprised with one more special thing today which I have never seen in the past 6 yrs of my London life.
I have heard and also read that The Tower Bridge opens up for letting in big ships through, but have never seen it. Today just by chance I happened to be there when the Tower Bridge opens for a ship to go through I was very thrilled and excited and enjoyed every bit of it. It was time for me to walk back to office. But I wanted to walk on The Tower Bridge that just opened and closed!! I am very poor at directions and routes. I vaguely remembered the route I actually came. But today that did not bother me. Kattu Sirukki (Raavanan) in my i-pod, gentle breeze, mild sunshine, I simply walked in the direction that my feet took me. After some 10 mins walk I met a junction and then realised I am actually supposed to be walking in the opposite direction to get back to work, but with no regret , in fact happy to walk on the bridge again I started walking back to work which was at least another 20 -25 mins. I really liked the different lunch break I had today.
