UBUNTU 8.10

Though this blog is dedicated entirely to malayalam movies, I can't mention a major change in my computing habits. I switched completely to LINUX. To be precise, Ubuntu 8.10
Ubuntu is an open source operating system which is absolutely free to use, share & modify. Though it is a lot similar to Windows, it is "entirely different". It is easy to install & use.
Please give a try........

The much awaited "Twenty-20" has been released, but with much less pomp and show, due to the initial boycott of the movie by Mohanlal fans. They were agitated by the initial posters of the film featuring all the 5 lead actors- Mohanlal, Mammooty, Suresh Gopi, Jayaram & Dileep. In the poster Mammooty is shown in the middle, which made the Mohanlal fans feel bad. If 5 people are standing in a row, can anyone make 2 people stand in the middle?? Then why are they arguing for equal importance to both?
As we all know, they both are acclaimed, sucesful and talented actors with fans across the globe. But die hard fans from both sides cause troubles by arguing their star is the best.
I am not a fan of either of them. I'm an ordinary cinema goer. I, personaly feel both of them are equally good.(or rather all 5 of them are equally good). It's high time that we should stand united for the cause of good cinema. We should learn to appreciate good cinema, for the sake of cinema.
A malayalam version (not translation) of this article is shown below.

Pathan kanda Paralokam

As I've said earlier, I watch movies for entertainment and so, I mostly watch action, suspense, horror or comedy movies rather than serious realistic films. Recently I watched the film "Pathan kanda Paralokam". It is a fantasy - comedy cinema, starring Jayaram, Mukesh, Sreedevika, Jagathy etc.
Jayaram as Parthan, Jagathy as Phalgunan, Kottayam Nazeer as Sulaiman create a lot of hilarious scenes. The story of Parthan who had a few "Near Death Experience" is told in a witty manner by Rajan Kiriyath. The incidents in his village, after these incidents and the arrival of Madhavam (Mukesh)
forms the main story. The film directed by Anil entertains the audience. The review in Malayalam is given below.
