in my extremely busy schedule of settling down in my job i went to watch the evam play evam indrajit this sunday. besides being an extremely huge fan of karthik k i genuinely like their plays.. i have never missed even one. but this sunday was different. they were doing a play that was not funny- written in the 1960's by my standards it was from the last century!!!! :-) the second reason was that i was taking along a frnd who had never watched a play before. i was not too sure if this was the right choice for a first play but watever!!!! i dont want to go into the story of the play. but watching it sure set of a train of thought some of it relevant to the play and most of it not.. but anyway here goes...
i am a human being. God created me as one coz He wanted me to go through the emotions that He Himself put into his most wonerous creation ADAM. happiness,jealousy,sadness,anger,hatred,exhilaration,exhaustion,dejection and so on so forth. i have been opposed to the thoughts which say that i shud transcend to a higher plane. to hell with a higher plane i am happy here. wat is the point in being a human and not going through it. i could have been born a buffalo,giraffe or even zebra for that!!! hey i donno, maybe they are capable of emoting too and i just dont get their emotions... but yeah ok.. i think u get the point..
evam indrajit just strengthened my idea. it talks abt amal,kamal,vimal and indrajit!!! it symbolizes every other individual and u.. it talks abt the circle of life and the 3 parts in it namely youth,middle age and death. it ends with indrajit realizing that running away from the normal will not help and its best to accept that. wat is the point in trying to unserstand something that is in comprehensible or in the least open to a wide interpretation. indra as he is called ends up loosing the grl he loves and settles down with another grl.. another manasi.. oh by the way every grl is a manasi..(how chauvenestic can one get man!!!)
ok ok by now u must be wondering wat is she trying to talk abt.. well i am trying to type with my colleagues doing java,oracle and discussing orkut sitting 2 feet from me ,hampering my already chaotic,confused thought process.. yes this is youth. where one sits and talks and gossips, grls on guys and hrithik and brad pitt and guys on grls and cars and cricket and who has the hugest biceps or the hugest pay checks.. this is youth!!!!! ur frnds are ur world, ur love is heaven and home and mom and dad are the things that bring u down to earth when u absolutely dont need it.
by the time one moves out of this stage u enter the grihasta or married life. u are a householder meaning that as a spouse u support,love and care for ur husband/wife as the case may be.for better or for worse..in sickness or in health till death(or lately divorce) do u apart.. long walks on the beach, burnt dinners, saving and scrimping on the salary, overtime and all.. then kids come into the scene.kindergarden to car pool to karate class and so on.. oh wait i almost forgot sibling rivalry :-)
death???? its a question mark.no one knows wat one it is and i appreciate the those who can explain it. but i dont want to think abt it and i dont want to be taught abt it..let it be.. will find out as it comes..
so like the play said i think that i shud go through the stages and go through the circle and as the sang in the play 1-2-3.3-2-1.4-5-6.6-5-4 and so on..
all in all the play was gud. my frnd loved it. and i got to check out the guy my frnds and i call "cute karthik!!!" it set of a train of thought and it set of this blog!!!

I think I love this blogger, if I can call her or him that. Coz she speaks easy, everyday interesting tidbits in a most lucid style. It just flows without any hassles. Goes well most parts and not boring stuff at all. Shows some intellectual splashes here and there but probably dhinks/ keeps other blogger-peers in mind, maybe adolescents. Good English speaking-wise and wisely speaking. chlta hai ,as long as it is nicely framed. Who sticks to rules these days? I foresee very good prospects for this blogger (again I have not checked out if I can use this) But after all who coins all these words. We get used them and ultimately be part of lexicon and that is dictionary. evam indrajit is improvement over the previous blogs and don’t ask me who gave me the right to comment upon. I wish the blogger (kick me now) has beautiful prospect of becoming a celebrated film reviewer besides his or her other goals or even I go to the extent of prophesying he or she becoming a producer writing down his or her own script and I if get to know the person, must be young thing after all and would sure listen, I shall go ‘n’ ask for bit roles as old hag. Happy blogging. Very entertaining and thoroughly enjoyable invention.

hey anil..im a fan of evam.. it jus that their play set me thinking..but yeah a lot of ppl thought that they shud stick to comedy..by the way gud luck with ur skateboarding..jus read it..couldn't post comments on urs so did this..
Is this "Cogito ergo sum" the famous Rene Descartes Statemnet?
yeah that is rite..its the descartes statement..i think it signifies a lot..
Hey! You could say that I'm a fan of Evam. Saw their play "Art" in Chennai, and was hooked. And though Karthik can be "cute", Sunil in my opinion is a far better actor.
They came to Blore some time back and did Evam Indrajit. http://mandolini.blogspot.com/2005/07/evam-indrajit-post-play-review.html
