Missing AirFrance flight!

Posted on Tuesday, June 2, 2009 at 2:01 pm


So depressing to read about the missing AirFrance flight news. To get lost on a land is different from getting lost in a no-man’s world. Getting off the atmosphere’s edge that is above the vast Atlantic ocean! I just cannot imagine the scene that could have happened.

I know there have been many disasters – natural, human-error and on the lead are the violent terrorist activities going around the world. But this disaster is so pathetic involving various factors – no reports to transmit, a wind calamity involving dense turbulence, high in the sky, trapped into the rough, big ocean! On the top, can you imagine the claustrophobia that could have impacted each passenger!

Did they have enough time to think where the disaster is heading to? What did the Captain tell them lastly? Did it fire already before diving into the ocean? Too many questions and I am sure researchers will have more related questions. I read the news originally from BBC but I am seeing a lot of technical info on CNN. Trade winds between North & South hemisphere – will this become another zone to refrain from flying/cruising like the ‘Bermuda Triangle’? Sure to have answers from experts down the line.

Tamil Film Music

With the entry of more talented music directors, I think Tamil Film music is reaching its heights. Like we refer the Illayaraja 80’s, I dont think we can have such categories any more. Because this era we have Harris, Yuvan, Vijay Antony, G.V.Prakash, etc already been so popular alongside our toppers Isaignani and isaipuyal.  In addition, Joshua Sridhar, Sundar C Babu, James Vasanth, Dharan are becoming popular with their recent hits.

This trend change is making us more happy singing more numbers in more styles. With the rise in standard of the Tamil movies, the demand for good music has potentially increased. It is so nice to see Hariharan-Leslie ’singers turn music directors’ giving us wonderful verstaile music in ‘Modhi Vilayadu’. Everyone has started singing its songs, lyrics are all over the web. ‘Angadi theru’ inspite of setting expectations being Vasanthabalan’s next movie to ‘Veyil’, its music my GV Prakash and Vijay Antony is so nice to hear. What a healthy competition these days, different style composers union for a movie.

I really wanted to encourage this trend and wish all success to Tamil movies and music to continue delivering good standard ones.
