million's good

back in hyd after a trip to kochi - the pearl/queen (a bit confused on that front and not in the mood to google) of the arabian sea. and it was a pretty eventful trip too. saw a couple of good movies. "udayanaanu thaaram" and "million dollar baby" - the former is probably the only malayalam movie in the past 5 years which has been able to make people laugh without resorting to cheap bathroom humour and the latter is, for want of a better word, a classic. i remember daku saying something about it having a potential for becoming a classic but i guess with all those oscars, it already is. i feel sorry for martin scorsese and was pretty surprised but then eastwood had done a pretty good job, way out of the league of his last one i remember - space cowboys. the chap's like wine :-). i guess there isn't any point in talking of the movie though, as half the world ought to have seen it by now.

and home surprisingly was a lot more hot and humid than ever before. so i request all and sundry to refrain from using cfc! and the trip back was pretty good. the indian railways, it seems, is striving hard to cater to the needs of people for beautiful-eyed girls in long-distance trains - first my friend and now me ;-)
