Ponniyin Selvan – great Tamizh movie, well done and comes close to what Amarar Kalki had written. After seeing it, I did come to a realization that we had been forced to learn only about Mughals and Britishers in our History classes in middle and high school, rather than know and understand our own heritage and rich history. Raja Raja Chola and his son Rajendra Chola had the world’s largest naval fleet in and around the 12th century when they went to many SE Asian countries and established Hinduism there. This movie should be the wake-up call , we need to start redoing our school’s history syllabus to know and understand more about our rich heritage and culture and know more about the conquests and the cultural side that were nourished during that period between 5th and 14th century. I hope we have the inscriptions for this or we need to start discovering them and put the real story together in an authentic way. Time to wake up is now, know more about our local and Indian History and not to read more about the invaders who plundered us.
I will certainly like the TamilNadu government to look into this and change the syllabus to reflect our pride in the middle and high school history lessons. By the way, why are the Nagapattinam copper plates in Leiden Museum – time to bring them back here. Time to act and change the script is NOW.

When do you need a job?
Irony of any job seekers: When you want a job, you cannot get it. But when you find a job, you do not need it then. Unfortunate. If you are satisfied where you are and your boss supports you, there is no reason for a change but this is when all these calls happen.
Always remember, in a free world, you cannot be locked in forever. And when it rains, it pours. Realize there are no such thing as a bad situation, it is you who has to create outcomes based on whatever situation gets presented to you. Keep the faith and be positive.
Yes, you would see a lots of recruiters who do not respond back and this speaks a lot about the company you want to join. Yes they do get lots of profiles but there is no harm in sending a note as a process for everyone who applies(remember this can be automated as well).
Make the best of what you have at that time
