Musings and a bad movie

Hi all...

I was thinking about something today.When I go out on my own or with my friends in crowdy places, I find myself kinda on an alert mode. You can see all sort of guys trying to hit on you(physically), a brief grope or a little brush on your side. So I always have my fists clenched ready to attack if any nuisance arises. And I have blown punches a couple of times too. Am not a martial arts expert, but in a crowdy place, just showing your courage in a small way can take a guy off guards and make him run away. They just hope that the girl would not rise a hue and cry over a thing like this, which they might think as a very small insignificant act. But when they see a vehement protest coming, they just back off, not wanting to involve in any sort of trouble.
But, when I go out with my parents, I have never encountered anyone trying to make a pass. Being with parents is kinda a shield. I can be myself, carefree.
I was just wondering why are some guys programmed this cheap?
I saw a movie today. Its called kalvanin Kadhali. When I heard that the lead actor is S J Surya, I felt like not going to the movie. But still i went. Now I realize how important it is to believe your instincts.

Bye all..Have a great week ahead.

Oops!! what are you going to loose if some one touches you. Now you can create a lot of hell by hitting a guy who is walking in his way and making him feel guilty of which he is not...

Good for you Divya. Honestly I wish I had learnt some martial art as a youngster, it really does bring out one's assertiveness.

lol@neighbour's comments..
And yeah, one must trust his/her instincts.. esp when it comes to watching SJ Suryah's movies..
Expecting something worthwhile from his movies is the height of optimism.. which even the optimist from utopia cannot immagine *shudders* But I guess you learnt your lesson. :)

I think you would have judged the category of KK, after knowing that SJS is the hero. Appadi irundhum neenga risk eduthu irukeenga.

I went to the theatre expecting something like "Anbe Aaruyire"...and we got to see something like that only.

No expectations...so no disappointments for me.

confessions.......... said...

hi divya,
the icon u had in oyur blog(I believe it`s oyur eyes) was more beautiful than the present one...anyways..speaking about KK ,I haven`t seen it but I feel such movies are made keeping the front benchers in mind..coming to groping..hmm..ur statement was right..

Sathish said...

Touch is to sense. We believe a touch of the opposite sex brings pleasure.. which is more a belief than a fact... so the defence against it ...

Divya said...

crystals>>ya those eyes were mine. beautiful? ppl told it was scary..lol...neway i love changes...so changed it...
dont see KK

sathish>>i think i kinda get u...

just saw the sun tv thirai vimarsanam for the sj surya movie yesterday.. dont think will watch it..

best part was where they show the audience coming out of the theater and the guy shoves the mic in front of their face.. unanimously they say "nalla irundhichchu".. "kandippa pakkalaam" etc..

out of all the people that exit the theater, i counted at least 25 guys and 1 woman !! only 1 woman.. and the guy tried to shove the mic in her face.. she actually went out of her way to avoid the mic and walked out with her head bowed down !!

sad !!
