Indian 2 Trailer: A Glimpse of Grandeur, But Makeup Needs Work

 
The much-awaited trailer for "Indian 2" has finally arrived, and it offers a thrilling glimpse into what director Shankar has crafted. Here's a breakdown of the trailer's highs and lows:

Highs:

Kamal Haasan's Screen Presence: The veteran actor commands attention as vigilante Senapathy. His intensity and charisma are undeniable. 

Action and Visuals: The trailer boasts impressive action sequences and grand visuals, a hallmark of Shankar's films. 

Social Commentary: The trailer hints at the film tackling social issues like corruption and unemployment, echoing the themes of the first film.

Lows:

Makeup: While Kamal Haasan excels in his performance, the de-aging makeup used in certain scenes appears unconvincing. In close-ups, it can be distracting and take away from the emotional weight of the scene.

Overall:

Despite the makeup concerns, "Indian 2" promises to be a visually stunning and action-packed social thriller. If the story and screenplay live up to the visual spectacle, this could be a major crowd-pleaser. However, the makeup effects on Kamal Haasan might be a point of contention for some viewers.

Kondaketti Hill Trek: A Triumph of Age and Determination

Image
On 24/11/2024, we a team of 40 people along with professional volenteers of AMAS KERALA conquered Kondaketti Hill(700 meters high), a feat that was inspired by the determination and spirit of our 84-year-old team member, Sree Prem Vallab Chamoli. Mr. Chamoli's presence on the trek served as a reminder that age is just a number and that with the right attitude, anything is possible. The Kondaketti Hill trek is a challenging one, but Mr. Chamoli never let his age get in his way. His positive attitude and unwavering spirit were an inspiration to all of us. In addition to Mr. Chamoli, the entire team, especially the volunteers of the organising team AMAS KERALA played a vital role in the success of the trek. All worked together as a team, supporting each other and encouraging each other to keep going. We were all determined to reach the summit, and we did it! The Kondaketti Hill trek was a truly unforgettable experience. It was a testament to the power of human ...

Santosh (2024) – A Quietly Devastating Crime Drama That Holds Up a Mirror to Society

Image
In an era of cinematic spectacle, where loud storytelling often drowns out subtle truths, Santosh (2024) emerges as a rare voice of quiet resistance. Directed by Sandhya Suri and starring the formidable Shahana Goswami, this Hindi-language crime drama is not just a film—it’s an indictment, a meditation, and above all, a mirror to the deeply entrenched social fault lines in India. Plot Overview: A Uniform, A System, A Disappearance The story follows Santosh Saini (Shahana Goswami), a 28-year-old widow in rural North India who is appointed as a police constable through India’s "compassionate appointment" system.

Yesterday, the teachers of St. Thomas Higher Secondary School embarked on a much-anticipated one-day trip to Mandrothu, a journey that proved to be a delightful escape from the routine of school life. While the initial mood was a little subdued due to some unforeseen hiccups in the original plan, the timely and insightful intervention of the resort manager turned the day around completely, transforming a potentially disappointing outing into a joyous and memorable experience. We are immensely grateful for their quick thinking and adaptability. Our adventure began with a visit to the mesmerizing Mangrove forest.

Paddling our way through the calm waters, surro...
