Observations and PersonalF e r r a r i on 14 Sep 2007 10:25 am
Have you seen the movie ‘Punnagai Mannan’. Or atleast the song ‘Vaan megam’ from that movie? In that song Revathy would be dancing in rain, and the sotta thalai villain would be watching it from his car. It would be raining quite heavily, but the guy will be extremely dry with sandhana pottu etc. I dont know why, but I had the craze of sitting inside a car, at the times of heavy rain. No, I dont want to see anyone dance. After buying a car, I have driven many times during the monsoon. But somehow the rains weren’t that heavy. Until yesterday.
I really felt like a Villain(No, sotta thalai is not the only connection :P) yesterday, watching people struggling in the rain while I was enjoying

“…watching people struggling in the rain while I was enjoying”
How do you know they were struggling??? They too could have been enjoying.. I for one, hate watching the rain from inside a vehicle.. Its a better feeling to run like crazy in the blinding rain.. And feel secure in the corner of a shop’s shade huddling yourself… and look at the sky, feel the rain drops on your face…
Rather than get stuck in a vehicle, which can be a burden if the roads are get worse…

I got stuck in the rain without any jacket. Silkboard was heavily flooded. Took all the shortcuts of BTM for avoiding the traffic but all went in vain, everywhere around BTM, in all roads, it was a total mess !

When I was there I used to capture pics of the flooded Hosur road and send it to my frends at other places…..
Now, sitting in Chennai I enjoy seeing those pics….konjam over thaan theriyum

it was infact a bad scene, bangalore was such a nice city, me having lived in this place from birth have seen the transition, I hared it when it started pouring so much n I took nearly two hours to reach home at 2 AM after work, where as I used to reach by 20 mins at that time…..though I luv to enjoy the rain, but I was too exhausted to do so….
@ Anuradha,
Da you having gone thru this pain u should sympathise with us not laugh…..Nijamave Too much than

Really really enjoyed the rain last weekend.. Got out of office at 4.45 PM and reached home by 9.00 PM.
Some were pissed off, some in the bus started playing anthakshri and other games and some started listening to music.. With the driver taking a totally different route where there was hardly any traffic, trees on both sides, pouring rains and romantic songs in the ears.. It was heavenly !!
