Movies, Management and Me

Hi! Its been long time I made a post here. In this gap I have moulded myself into a scriptwriter and a shortfilm director. Worked with some brains which have mastered in the movie making business enjoyed watching the editing rooms dubbing theaters and several other places where actually a reel turns into a movie(including shooting spots).

Besides I'm continuing my management education. People have started asking me a questions saying "What's the relevance between movie making and management. And why don't you shift to movie making when you like it much."
I hope that this post will be an answer to all those questions.

For me making movies or watching them is just a hobby but its life to many. But both these streams are having an inter relation to a larger extent. A movie includes all the genres of management studies like human resources, financial management, production, marketing management and operations. It is always taught that management is applying mere commonsense and is not a rocket science as it is the study of the principles developed by the people who are not well educated but who have mastered the management science by running the businesses profitably and effective.

Coming to the point I wanna brief you on how the above mentioned fields are related to movie making. If procuring inventory and effective utilisation of resources then movie is no different as it deals in procuring all the inventory like generators labor and etc to carry out the shooting activity perfectly. Movies deals with capital and procuring funds and utilising them. Human resources is the key element in the movie making as it deals with creative heads working to make a thought into a movie. If these intellectual's creativity is not used properly then the movie will end in disaster if an actor fails to perform well then the audience will not enjoy the drama that is created around them in the theaters or before screens so they need to perform well and the person who needs to control every activity like actors, cameramen, editing department and production department is the director of the movie. I feel a director is one of the best HR's of the world. The next function is marketing whatever the movie is whether it is the worst one, a disaster or an extraordinary fiction a trailer is one of the popular marketing technique that attracts the audience in coming to the cinema hall.

Out of all movie is one of the most profitable businesses in the world which crosses the breakeven point before its release by selling rights to distributors. The margin of safety will be reached withing few hours of the movie release. So, I feel that movie being the business is the master of all the studies that are taught in the harvard or LSB.

India- Land of Politicians

Just by reading this sentence you may feel that I'm going to speak about those filthy politicians or about their cheap tricks. If you are thinking in that manner definitely you are wrong because I'm here speaking about real politicians of India whose thinking is far ahead when compared to our politicians. Here rises a questions as these people are not politician who are they? Where do they live? What do they do?

The answer will be strange but if you start thinking you feel that its true. So come on lets jump into the topic about the perfect politicians.

These politicians are our well wishers who care for us and those who live with us as our neighbors, tenants, owners and several other people who stare at people with suspicious looks and an added flavor of false smile pasted to their lips. These are the people who create relations and are the people who eagerly wait to grab some news from you. These people are faster than news channels in spreading news.

Once I went to a hospital where I first found a politician in my life she came and sat next to me she was speaking to other lady about her health related problems. I have to admire her because she has good patience. She listened to her and after listening to her this lady started giving her advises and made that lady to feel as if she is going to die in a week or so. You find such creative people in every nuke and corner.

The other story line will be from every household it always happens when there is any gathering or any simple meeting. Didi do you know Mr.Reddy's son married some American lady. What a shame!. Then Mrs Reddy enters the scene then the same lady says Vadina (A common word used between two Telugu women) you are really good you've accepted a westerner as your daughter-in-law......again the discussion continues.....

The other people are those who create gossips and who always feel bad when there is any occasion in neighbor's place, and the other people are our mother-in-laws who really feel bad by seeing their daughter-in-laws comfortably sitting or watching TV in order to relax. "I never took rest when I was of your age."Granny adds..

These are some common political things that will continuously happen in our day to day life.......but we never think about these things because these are petty things and we move on and if the same happens in our neighbor's home we cover ourselves in the gown of politician and we discuss and create gossips on others......So India is a land of Politicians in every nuke and corner.....

Soon I'll make some changes in this topic.............

Problems???


'Problem' It may actually mean something according to dictionary. But when comes to reality a problem is a burden for a human being. People can't live happily if they have a problem they ruin their happy life by seeing problems in big shape.People forget a simple logic here I will disclose the logic at the end of this post.

When a problem comes to a person he thinks of the problem on the I-Max screen he feels as if he has to bare the burden of the globe on his shoulders. He then feels that he is the only person who is facing a problem(which may be pretty idiotic one or really a big one) on this earth. The next thing which he does is he runs to a person with whom he can share his problems. In actual sense he finds a suitable person and throws his problems on him. After throwing off the problem he feels a bit relaxed. Why because now he is having a friend who travels with him (he may not really help him). Now both will start spreading this problem across in the form of discussion. In other case he will discuss about his problem with a person who has a same problem. If the other person says he has no clue about the solution this fellow feels happy as if he has got an alliance.

In this huge process of increasing the circumference of his problem that person forgets a simple logic which is finding solution. If you find a solution the problem will become smaller and at least we will keep ourselves busy in searching solutions and alternatives for that problem which improves fighting spirits in us and adds experience to our life. Keep one thing in mind that no body has time to think about our problems so we are left with our problems. So the solution which is left aside is finding solution b facing the problem. Don't waste your time in searching people who can share your problem. Keep one thing in your mind that,
each day we are born in the morning and die in the night when we sleep. "So forget yesterday, relish today and fantasize tomorrow" as said by Ram Gopal Varma

Simple logic is thinking about the problem makes you to loose everything in your life but facing it makes you powerful and eminent.

Enjoy solving problems and solve the problems by facing them.

Life .........

Life in dictionary means in existence but it takes one's life to know life and finally he'll end it without knowing it properly.

"Life is a Big word to use when you are still in a learning stage." this is what people say usually when a person speaks about life.'Life is beautiful' somebody gave this quote really life is beautiful for those who makes it beautiful and lovable. In the day to day run we forget that we are here to live for a short time and we forget to make our life peaceful and sweet but few achieve it in a perfect way.

Common man wakes in the morning and ends his day in searching or arranging things and in this process of arrangement he first thinks of a partner after marrying a girl he feels happy he then thinks about having children. He lives and ends his life in arranging several necessities for them. He forgets himself when they grew and when they give a small baby.

This is the cyclical chain of every human being in this world. We run for several things and even we run for surviving because we love to live on this earth we love to stay back on this earth. Death the final truth makes us feel guilty and bad. We love life and we live life happily without thinking about the truth called death.

Few go for simple ways of living and few go in a different way making it big and even large if it is possible. These two kinds of people live their life but what matters here is your way of living if a person is living for himself in his own style that is the beauty of life. There are people who live in making their life beautiful like a Banker who turns into a Painter after returning back to his home, a student who turns into a writer, a Judge who turns into a singer and etc. These are the people who are enjoying their lives even in their day to day battle for food and several other things. We feel that we are lacking some skills or creativity in us and several students across the globe are running to business schools for this. But creativity is not a great thing it is a simple chemical change.

When a person meets several people he will deal people easily it means he got that skill because of traveling between several ideas in the same way creativity is a thought which develops new things which comes to a person when he observes and knows several things. So use your brains do something before you die. Try to achieve what your heart asks you to do. Live life like yourself. Be an example for yourself.
Finally:
Don't count every hour in the day.Make every hour in your day count.
Enjoy living your life making sound happiness in and around, end it in silence.

Why do we wake when danger knocks our door?

After two weeks of Mumbai terror I wanna write something about a common man and our powerful media I mean our news channels which were actively present at Taj and Oberoi hotels.

Firstly I thank all those News Channel people who helped the country in knowing the terror which was happening in Mumbai. Citizens of India were shocked and were terrified with the incident.

Next I congratulate those NSG commandos who worked hard to relieve the people who were there in the terror.

Here I want ask few questions to public media. It may be the print media or our TV channels.
Why you people make controversies on simple issues?
Why you won't allow the officials to do their job?
Why you people are making every bloody possible thing a news?
When it was the duty of NSG commandos to control the situation why the hell you people were running towards them with your idiotic cameramen and mikes. Reporters were shouting as if they were injured, they were creating high drama at the situation in order to panic those people who are sitting in front of the idiotic boxes (Television). If you feel that you are responsible towards society why you've failed in covering the other affected areas of recent Terrorist attacks except Taj and Oberoi Hotels. Press feels that it is highly responsible towards the society and it feels that being the Fourth Estate it can speak anything that is happening in and around. The Journalism which we are having today is clearly a Yellow Journalism which involves in producing wrong information.

Todays media never leaves anyone happy, if there is a death because of some hurricane or any natural calamity they go to the situation with their well attired reporters who can act better than those actors who act in Ekta's serials. These reporters shout in loud voices and will run to the victims of the incident and will question them. Their injuries doesn't really bother them what really bothers them is their money which they get from advertisements. Media knows all those routes to get closer to the news persons but it doesn't know how to manage it and how it should deliver them to people. It says politics are filthy but they never know that in the name of journalism they are killing the power which was given to them, so called Fourth Estate. When you know the route to reach terrorits why can't you help government and police in finding them. You don't want to do this because you want your profit and income. Why don't these people print the stories of filthy politicians or about those people who are ivolved in the disaster that is happening around us it may be corruption or anything else.

There is one more thing media has to think. There is no difference between you police and that bloody common man who is loosing his life. Because you never know what is happening around you even if you know you want to wait for the time where you can make money out of it. You just create chaos but you don't give necessary remedias to come out that situation. Why don't your reporters and make up men help people who are in threat. The simple answer is even they are common human beings but they are blessed with tongue which has no bone. This means that it has no control and these people just shout at what is running there but never try to control it. If some riots are happening you just run to the spot and you give work to your cameras and mouths but you never feel responsible to inform the same to authorities. Not only you several are not doing this so bloodshed is increasing corruption is ruling over.On the other side there is a common man who is sitting in front of a Television. He is always annoyed whenever he watches about some issue or riots in the TV with the great drama produced by the reporters he is bothered about his relatives and friends and he has no other option to move or to try, what he can just do is sitting in front of that idiot box and fearing for his people.

So media please provide hygienic news to us and don't try to show every idiotic news as an issue. If really media works well country will foresee a drastic change. Be responsible to the country first and then think of your news and be a part of country's heritage but not a head ache.

This post is just a try,
By a common man like many other across,

Laziness- Bane or Boon

Everyday we come across people who say we are lazy and we can't achieve anything. People say if one is lazy he can't do things in time and he will possess several bad things like lack of time management delay in making decisions and are really bad in doing things or in executing work. But when I've attended a simple session on personality development I had a new experience. The speaker was showing laziness as a boon, first i was a bit shocked by this man's speech because never in my life I heard a man speaking about the advantages of laziness.

I'll just mention his views on laziness where he mentioned several Scientists as lazy people. He says "If you are a lazy man you should feel great because there are several people in this world who belong to the category of laziness."

"All those people who are involved in developing something and inventing something are lazy people because they want to make their life simpler and considerably easy. When one invented Television lazy man invented remote control, when calculations are really complicated other invented calculator which changed its form to a computer." He adds.

So it is really optimistic to be a lazy person but what differs you from the other is your confidence and your style of projecting the work. It is a notable fact that delivering the things in time is must so our laziness must not be problematic to others so being in time or delivering things in time is a simple change which you must make in your life style, and never take things carelessly because carelessness in not a part of laziness. The prime objective of laziness is to enjoy life in a simpler form but not to complicate it with carelessness. So enjoy the laziness.

Writing- Blogs, Stories or anything

Several across the world are wonderful writers and are really great in expressing their views. William Shakespeare is the King of them and is undoubtedly a genius and he touched several hearts with his literary wonders. But if you give his writings to a kindergarten student he will just say “what is this.” He loves his rhymes itself and Shakespeare may sound strange to him. So what matters here is not your grip on the language but your way of expressing ideas. It is proved that several people who are well versed in writing skills fail in attracting people and in making their impression on the readers. This happens as they use several jargons, cants and slang where they fail in reaching the pulse of a common individual who has to read their writings. As finish line is the aim for a runner and profit for a business firm, it is a reader for any writer. Because he is the one who appreciate or finds flaws in a writer if writer fail in reaching them he can’t succeed. This happens when readers fail in understanding the writer’s intention where the writer fails in delivering his view and his effort finally ends without any appreciation.

Several people across the globe are having a problem. They feel that lack of writing skills is their great drawback and they end in stopping their passion of expressing their views and ideas. Some among these will really possess excellent ideas. These people do use their common sense and do miracles with their ideology and thinking process because no one can become a genius just by reading books without common knowledge and without knowing about surroundings this will be possible only when you are really open to learn things and when you have the zeal to learn. These people forget a main point of writing which is an idea from which everything will be developed. If you are a common human being and if you understand the same common man you can create wonders in writing.
If a person is having these capabilities of using common sense can really do wonders in his life and can be a great writer.

When Beethoven can do miracles in music without thinking about his blindness why not you / us? Though we have everything in a perfect way we love to get glued to our chairs so called giving up attitude. Because of this attitude we give our fellow human beings a chance chase and cross us in the race where we stand last.

What I wish to say is do express your views and never let your ideas to go vain because the love towards writing really develops and teaches you several things about you when you start writing. Do write something and show it to your well wishers and ask for their views and you continue writing when you get appreciation you'll enjoy it and you'll continue writing because success is the energy drink for everyone to proceed and continue any activity, and your experience adds you several skills. So write as no one is reading. At least write something for your girl or your guy and try to impress them with your thought process.

Write Write and Write.

Violence- New Passion

Violence-
According to dictionary violence means “The act or an instance of violent action or behavior.”

Violence was evolved when human beings started living on the earth as rulers and dominating creatures. Primitive man had a fear from animals’ weather and a lot of common things which we never think in our day to day life. He then started making a group and he started moving in it. After few days he thought even then he is having fear in him then he made weapons and then he started facing animals that come across, he liked this and he continued in developing several things he made fire he made clothes and he made shelter. In the mean time he went ahead by increasing violent tendencies in him. He was not satisfied and he developed skills of violence and he taught them to his next generation and he taught them to fight to live.

Violence developed to that extent where a common individual made boundaries in making relations and in making boundaries.

Violence is induces into us when we are at an age of months. When a kid falls his parent comes to him and hits the floor in order to make the kid happy, the kid enjoys the scene and the drama which is created over there because he never saw his parent in a heroic situation he loves to feel the same and he continues such practices.

The child now is called the new face of violence. Now violence grows to a school growing child where he learns new violence. He loves the violence over there and he reads violence when he grows, is framed in the format of words he reads them. The epics which we read, the stories which we listen and the movies or plays which we see are filled with violence. So he enjoys violence and he will be having a feel of exhibiting the violent tendencies which are induced in him. Now he searches for a situation to exhibit, now he grows to a college going guy he feels that he is enough matured and he feels every silly incident or difference which he faces as an opportunity to show his power and he turns out to a rebellion. He loves making fights and he loves his injuries and he feels them as the symbols of his heroism.

If situations are helping him he uses his mind in making plots to show his heroism where he involves in street fights with other gangs and he grows in the same. When I met few professional criminals about the crimes which they have committed they came with single answer saying “we did those crimes for pride and we loved doing them and we don’t feel bad for living in these jails for those crimes but we feel bad for loosing those opportunities.”

Every individual comes across these stages but in a different style. If one is not feeling violently then it can be said that there is a problem with him. It can also be said that he is not thinking normally because the other face of violence so called exists in everyone. When your friend gives the same pat when you are serious you blow like an atomic weapon which means you are violent and every conflict that comes between two individuals with so call misunderstanding is because of the ego- the other face of violence. So we live with violence and die with the same feeling, because no one will be happy or satisfied when he lies to death. One feels I would have seen my daughter marriage other feels I would have seen my grand daughters some may think about great grand ones too. So never in our life we are happy and never our ego feels happy and every movement we feel to do something the feel of doing something is the simpler form of violence.

When we are living with violence what is the use of shouting for peace and non violence. Try and use the same power to reduce the poverty and to raise the income standards of the people across globe. So that knowledge of those individuals will be shown a good grounds and they may indirectly help the nations in growing well.

Finally I say:
‘Every individual at some point of life thinks violently and if there is a chance he behaves and still if situation permits he lives violently.’

Physical Relation Before Marriage

There are several ideas and ideologies on this area. Several people in several countries commit it and few condemn. My step is not giving a conclusion to this question but to make few aware of this scenario which we are adopting.

I will speak regarding this in the perspective of Indians who are much concerned with this topic either directly or indirectly. Physical Relation is a polished form of presentation for the word sex because in India this word is still a marketing tool. It means if a celebrity speaks regarding this simple part of life next day he’ll be flashed in news and in the print media so, sex is better used as physical relation in my country and I’m following that tradition. First I thought of writing the same article with the name ‘Sex before marriage’ but when I took the same option to my friends they simply shouted at me and few were really excited and gave their views. I don’t want to disclose the thing which stopped me to keep the name as sex before marriage, but definitely I’ll show the views of people.

First let’s see the ideas of our good citizens of India. These people say that India is developing and in few years it will cross developed nations, in this process if India adopts developed countries technology and their methodologies these people will be happy saying India is growing rapidly. In the mean process of adopting western principles we are also adopting their style and their habits. But our good people are not happy with this and they say because of these western adoptions our next generation is loosing its values and are going in a bad route.

The ideas of my generation- the generation which is involved in the process of adopting western principles differ with the ideas of the first generation. This generation people easily say one thing that adopting something is no where a mistake because we are really developed because of adopting foreign technology and their principles so there is no sin in adopting their cultures too. Few people of this age say that skin to skin is not a sin because they commit it willingly.

I won’t disclose the names of my friends and few others as they hate popularity. Here I’m mentioning their views and ideas.

When I’ve asked one guy whom I met in my travel told me that “I’m smoking outside and my father is not aware of it in the same manner I’m doing sex so Gharwale will feel that I’m still up to their values. So I’m making them happy and I’m happy in my way of living.” But the girl who was sitting next to us said “a man can manage in and around the home but the same cannot be with a women” which says that she really cares for her world and society and she also said “It is against the society and is also unethical and in my view it’s wrong because for me it’s a pure relation and has to be with life partner itself”


Really both these people come with valid answers and once if you listen to them you’ll fall in the dilemma. I just want to show the both sides of this sword which is the burning topic in a secularist country like India where people believe in fate rather than their abilities.

As said earlier old people and few among the new gen felt that physical relation is a sin and it must be committed only when you are in a state of accepting the person for life time because that is the wonderful relation which bounds a pair for ever.

My Friend said “If you are having good or healthy relation with your partner so there is no need to be this type of relation.”

One well educated man said “It’s a simple experience before getting into real job. Simply like starter before a meal. But, it depends on the persons who are doing it. If both want to have sex before marriage they will enjoy like anything.”

One person of the same cadre and caliber said “I feel at present we are just looking women as a tool to the physical relation but no one is giving importance to her feeling so it’s a bad scenario, where the role of women is being restricted to a toy.”

A college going student came with a new version “In India it is not preferable because of our culture and our environment in which we are bought up but in abroad we can commit it and it is an advance step in love so nothing is wrong in committing.”

Though there are several edges to this sword one being the ethical thinking the other being the modern. Though several oppose this sort of relation the sales of condoms and emergency contraceptive pills are really grooming which says that several people are committing it. The dictionary of so called process was first written in India by name Kamasutra by Vatsayana. This is said to be the book followed by several foreigners. Our knowledge is really flowing across the world but we are still fighting for several silly issues. It is a notable fact that though there are several regulations laid down on the people for not committing it they are committing it because, in the name of regulations people are indirectly raising their curiosity towards sex and when they listen they are automatically curious about trying it in this process of curiosity several teen age individuals are undergoing the process of sex at a very earl age and are falling ill. Physical relation before marriage was really there with Indians from the good olden days. The prime motive is not to stop people committing but to make them aware of sex and its prominence where in we’ll have some change. The next step is really to get adjusted with the present day scenario and to move accordingly. Because if you stay blindly the world will cross you and finally you’ll be the one who become a fool out of the situation.

New Writings

I'm going to write a blog after several weeks again. This time i want give my views on topics like Pre MArital Sex, Gun Violence and others. In a day or two i"ll strike with the first.

Thank You
