Matter of convincing

         “Neither had I let people go after being caught, nor had I bribed for a lump sum”, said the Traffic Policeman contemptuously. “Now I am going to take this vehicle to the Station and you may get back yours in a weeks’ time post legal formalities and clearances” he added. The owner scolded himself for being not having the documents for his vehicles. Despite the policeman’s arrogance and pretending of a perfect person in order to grab a high ransom, the owner deliberately started to convince gathering all his skills of convincing. It started with apologizing, carried over with some show off, surpassed by negotiating and finally ended in some sort of bargain. Collectively with a least amount as possible by anybody could, the owner rebounded his vehicle and flew away. Day to day activities in all of our lives, the most important driving factor that led us to keep in the flow of conventional things to happen is by Convincing (either with or without our knowledge).

         There lies convince in every aspect that happen around the world. A business deals with convincing its customers to ride smoothly, a student has to convince a teacher, teacher has to convince the school management and the school management in turn has to convince the parents of its students. Likewise, this loop never ends in any sort of activity carried out by human, thus it profoundly forming the building block of every action of people. “Every action has an equal and opposite reaction”. But this “Reaction” is directly proportional to the convincing skill of the action”. I would also like to reframe Newton’s law for general use as “Every action has an equal amount of some convince concealed behind it”.  Literally, it rules the world without having any kingdom, but around a virtual space with myriad of virtual powers.

            In an interview, a candidate is about to sell himself and he/she is supposed to convince the interviewer, in business concerns, a company is supposed to convince its customer/client (“Customer Satisfaction” – the most repeated and irritating word for employees used in corporate), a guy in pursuit of his girl is supposed to convince that he is her best match, a sportsperson is really supposed to convince his audiences/ fans by his play (otherwise the TV has to bear all those bad words ), a politician is supposed to convince the public of his doings in future (for god sake please don’t ask whether they fulfill or not, but making people to believe make them Toppers in convincing skills), a child has to convince his/her parents, parents has to convince the society that their kid is the best one, writers has to convince their readers, etc. and the list doesn’t ends if I had to extend more and more.

             Nevertheless, the outbound specialist that can disseminate a person’s capabilities, emotions, characters, deportments, miens is his/her Convincing skill or overall I can say a person is well defined completely by the society by his consolidated convincing skills underlying as the background for all things. Once and when he masters in these areas he can be adjudged and perceived as a perfect person to the society where he live in. Moreover it may look hypothetical but can be proved at infinite cases. The world has shrunken into a global village, eventually peoples’ minds too. In order to prove ourselves into this materialistic world, the convincing skill is an indispensable thing. Not only to excel into your materialistic world, even when you need support and derive people to your spiritualistic world, you need to convince and make people understand of the spiritual thoughts and attaining spiritualism.

Gone are the days we left unnoticing this thing as inevitable. Even some of us after thinking about, so many would have tried not hard to execute and excel, without giving specific importance. But expelling the lit of fire at required instances would make your lamps of life to glow in the dark. Hence I would like to cultivate in the minds of my friends to “Develop your Convincing skills (more than your leadership qualities), in order to overwhelm any kind of situation even if it is the worst”. So everything is in our own hands. We are indebted with our sole responsibility to whom we are now and also to be whom are we going to be in future. Think well, Act wise, achieve great and live the life to the fullest of your wishes. All the best and thanks for spending the time to read. And I apologize if I had done any mistake or portrayed anything wrongly.  

I do not feel obliged to believe that the same God who has endowed us with sense, reason, and intellect has intended us to forget their use."

What's there in RAJNI KANTH ???

Of course obviously this is being a common question arising intensively in the minds of Non-Tamilians. Even many other people has told me “kya re…he is a common actor with no extraordinary talent, no physical fairness (hell with costume designers), does warm up exercises in the name of dance, shows super heroism far than the limits of imagination (even Christopher Nolan will faint), exaggerates common words in the name of Punch dialogues very contemptuously, annoys by smashing more than hundred gym boys in a single stroke, etc…”.

Why you people are so obsessed to him? What did he do to you personally? He may be a successful personality, but what’s there in him so specially than others? Why do you celebrate an old man’s film like a festival? Are you in 21^st century or somewhere? Why people are extolling his on screen performances which look funny for us? And even somebody has asked simply “are you mad?”

Needless to say, everybody knows that Rajinikanth has gone to the unfathomable reaches of fame. But herewith I try to convince the people who think that he doesn’t deserve whatever he possesses. Of course we everybody (here I use ‘we’ to mention Rajini fans) know and adore his mastery over style, delivery of speech, exceptional humor blended with his innocence poses, thought provoking punch dialogues (coincidentally it implicates at many occasions in our life) spoken at befitting situations, inspiring body language (even soft skill mentors can grasp things in him) and especially his simplicity in all his endeavors. Nevertheless, there are lot more things to gratify about his both professional and personal life, but herewith I try to convince the Non Rajini fans and  Rajini haters or even to people who thinks him as a mere undeserved icon (esp., North Indians and they make fun of him too). Henceforth the later phrases engraved in this blog were especially for those persons who has in their mind as I stated in first two paragraphs.

First of all, the crown that he bears has not been awarded overnight or even a quite long period. It’s all because of his 35 years of his hard work which is a too long way to go for anybody. He gradually embarked his career from a film institute to showcase his own talent with the advice of his peers. Earlier before he made his debut as an actor, many people were impressed at his dramas and stage shows done by him at streets and shows where his pouch was full of acting scopes and not the “bloody luck” as people says now. A deliberate decision to transfigure his small roles and villain roles to a dignified hero was a turning point and there by his journey started and his career graph elevated by his shrewd selection of films and roles.

Nevertheless, concerned about his on screen performances, people comment that he surpasses audience’s expectations just by his style, punch dialogues and time passing comedies. But to my belief I can certainly say that Rajini is one of those very rare artists who can make you think yourself as the character while watching. Apart from the pakka commercials he does in recent years, his character role films depicted him as a good artist who can transfer his feelings and emotions penetrate into your thoughts and make you feel as yourself into that situation. This job can’t be done even by other prominent actors, wherein they can only perform their acting and get appraised; even he/she wins a national award.

Even still now I have witnessed in many places in and around of my areas, wherein almost all people will go for theatre as a family to only rajini films. Only his films will be watched by almost all families even though they hate/uninterested to watch movies at theatres. The power he has in his eyes at scenes of emotional and critical oath taking situations (either while developing self or to take revenge-please don laugh) render a rejuvenation to make get our nerves on and his mastery over those moments are indescribable.

An outlined funny statement described about him is that in most of his films, he just becomes the richest person in just a flip of song which is contradictorily illogical or senseless. (Ha ha, even I get laugh at some times to imagine). But people should think that they were completely not illogical. In film it may be a five minute song, but as per story it would have depicted as duration of some years of time. We should realize the fact that a timeline of about 10 or 20 years can’t be shown completely in a short duration of the film. So it’s certainly possible whatever he becomes in his films (* terms and conditions apply*).

 The best example I can quote is, “his life story”. If when we see a person who is a conductor, becomes enthusiastic, migrate to other state, work hard and enter into cine field (that too with a poor complexion which is unimaginable); emerges as a hero soon; liked by all people and wins over the heart of them; then climbs up to top most actor (even when he is utterly bitterly black) and becomes India’s top paid actor (of course Asia’s second) and even wished by his massive number of fans to become chief minister of state;  everything if we see just within a song of five minutes, ya of course nobody will feel logical and they will tend to laugh at that. But, the fact is that all can happen in real life and he himself proved to be an example of that.

Finally I end up with the most cherishing word for his fans, “Thalaivaaaaaaaaaaaaaa !!!!!!!!!! “
