First Blog in 2014!!!

Belated Welcome message for 2014!!!

Had a Normal beginning for 2014.. Just cut a cake at the stroke of Midnight at home with wife and kids!. New Year messages to relatives,friends and colleagues - selected messages only.

To start usual message about Sachin Tendulkar , A R Rahman and Rajinikanth.

Sachin Tendulkar : President of India conferred Bharat Ratna to Sachin Tendulkar and  Prof C N Rao.. Both truly deserved the highest civilian award. hats off to them!! especially to God of Cricket. Congratulations!!!

A R Rahman : Highway Film Music released and as usual A R R rocks!! Songs / Music are very different.. ARR is ARR.. Great!!!
Next on the line of releases for this year includes - Kochadaiyaan, Í'with Shankar, Hollywood Film, one Album  Rasayana Pookal, Gautam Menon's film and Vasant Balan's film..

Rajinikanth : Atlast news has come that Kochadaiyaan is going to be released on April 11 in about 6000 screens all over the world in various languages including Tamil, Hindi, Telugu, Kannada and also various foreign languages.. Endhiran was released about 3800 Screens, Dhoom 3 was released over 4000 Screens.. But no info on when Music will be released.

IPL: Cricket Tamasha and Entertainment for the Year 2014  is already on the way with the Auction scheduled on Feb 12th and 13th 2014. This auction is going to be very exciting with the news of KP not included in the scheme of things for English cricket and he is available for the whole seven weeks of cricket .. This is a great news for all the franchises.. he is going to be hot selling cake - heavily bidding-let's see which team is going to buy him. Delhi Daredevils with no player retained should be the team to watch how they are going to bid .. with Kirsten as a coach, it is going to be an exciting auction..
Today final list of players have been released totally 514 players are going to be auctioned List of players who are going to be hot cake in the bidding war - Pietersen, Sehwag, Yuvraj, David Warner, Ashes hero Mitchell Johnson and Mahela Jayawardene, recently retired Jacques Kallis , Murali Vijay is also present in M1 list where all players have a base price of Rs 2 crore save Warner (Rs 1.5 crore)  The second list of marquee player or M2 as they are slotted consists of New Zealand captain Brendon McCullum, Australian ODI and T20 captain George Bailey,  veteran speedster Zaheer Khan - my thinking is teams may not go for him , not sure whether he can sustain for T20 - his days are numbered, South African batsman Faf Du Plessis, Australian batsman Michael Hussey - still a great player and had a great Big Bash and West Indies all-rounder Darren Sammy.. Another surprise would be Big Bash players like Craig Simmons who had a fantastic season, Alex Hales from england, Hazelwood etc., Uncapped Indian Players like Kedhar Jadhav, Vijay Zol,Unmukt Chand , Rishi Dhawan, C M Gautam etc., Would like to see whether aniruddha srikkanth will be bidded this time..  Pervez Rasool, Cheteshwar Pujara - i am not sure whether pujara will be bid maybe at the last resort he will be picked up by some team, In-form Australian batsman Aaron Finch ,Brad Hodge (Rs 2 crore), England's Eoin Morgan, West Indies' Dwayne Smith and New Zealand's Ross Taylor are the players to be watched out. Finally, we will know what is going to be role of Sachin for Mumbai Indians,, will he be sitting in the Auction and bid for players!! need to watch,,, Film to watch is Dhrishyam,,, Excellent film and great acting by Lalettan!!!
