The Shawshank Redemption!!

After long time, my mood is now set towards Hollywood Celluloid. Last night i did get an opportunity to saw this movie. A movie with a high voltage drama based on the legendary writer Stephen King. Earlier i didn't knew that this movie is going to be my all time favorite.. really a gem.
This story is about a soft spoken Banker who is charged with the murder of his wife and her lover and his life in prison. Plot of the movie is here.
A powerful story of hope, friendship and strength. The Shawshank Redemption stars Tim Robbins as Andy Dufresne and Morgan Freeman as Red. The original story Rita Hayworth and Shawshank Redemption was written by Stephen King and appeared in the collection Different Seasons. Frank Darabont wrote the screenplay and directed the movie in 1994.

The remarkable journey of our national flag

SALUTE THE SYMBOL: First Indian flag was designed by Vir Savarkar and was hoisted in 1906. In the year 1931, August 31 was declared as India's national flag day.

The resolution to adopt a tricolour flag in 1931, clearly states that it bore no communal significance. Saffron stood for courage and sacrifice White for truth and peace. And Green for faith and chivalry.
It also carried a charkha in blue on the white band which was later replaced by Ashoka's Dharma chakra symbolizing dynamism and constant change. It echoed the words of Sarojini Naidu - "Under this flag there is no difference between a prince and a pauper, rich and poor, man and woman. I bid every Indian to rise and salute this flag."

Waynad - A trip to remember

For the first time on this blog am penning down my travelogue on Waynad trip which we went Last weekend.
After so many rhetoric discussion on mail threads finally we decided to go Waynad last weekend. We were 8 members, all are our childhood friends which i am going to introduce you shortly.

From the above pix: Rakesh(Timmy), Sharath (Cha cha), Myself (Muni), Arvind(Kaddi), Pramod (Haali), Pramodh S- Behind(Bakery), Naveen (Bhatta), Sachin (kariyaa/Kaage).. Infact this team is named as SKP-BOYS after our very own famous home town SHIKARIPUR

We set our trip on a white Innova, which our very own Pramodh(Haali) booked after careful consideration. We all assembled in our Home and left Bangalore on Friday 8:30PM for our Waynad journey hoping to see God's own Country. We had to stop for dinner on the Highway Dhaba, which provided an amicable atmosphere to open Chivas Regal whisky that Arvind brought it from Dubai. We had a nice time discussing all the things right from Politics to Cricket, India to Dubai, Girlfriend to Wife (future) and what not.
Subsequently we had to wind up from Dabha and took off our journey past midnight. On the Mysore highway we called for a pit stop in CCD where we had a hot cup of Cappuccino and departed from there within half an hour. Everyone took a small nap here n there till we reached Sultan Battery @ 6:00AM.

Day 1:
Straightaway we headed towards Hotel room, thanks to Sachin's friend for helping us to find out the hotel. The funniest part of that hotel lies in its strange name “CHAKKALAKKAL”. After refreshing there for about an hour or so we set out for a Edakkal caves crusade. It provides a fantastic trekking experience, which we will remember for a life time. Its almost 4000ft above from sea level and once we reached the top we were able to see 3 adjoining states (Karnataka, Kerala, Tamil Nadu). Only 3 of us reached the pinnacle of that cave and the moment we reached the top, the feeling was as if we had conquered the whole world. It took almost 4 hrs to complete this cave crusade. By 4:00PM we refreshed ourselves with some Kerala food at Sultan Battery and went to see wild sanctuary. We hired one local jeep for Rs.600 and started our journey in the forest hoping to see some wild animals which went in vain. We got an opportunity to see no other creature apart from deer. One thing which was most fascinating about this sanctuary was the road which we took, it was so horrible that everyone got pissed off from the jeep. We are all dumbstruck watching the amazing driving skills of that jeep driver.
By the time we wind up our wildlife sightseeing it was almost 7:00PM. We went to our rooms, relaxed for quite sometime, had our dinner in a near by restaurant and by 10:00PM we decided to call it quits and went for a deep sleep.

Day 2:
We all started our day with full vigor, checked out the Hotel room by 8:00AM and had our breakfast @ Hotel Regency in Sultan Battery.
