Pratiroju Pandage movie review(2019)

Review of Pratiroju pandage movie (2019)
Rating 4/5 

The hero's grandfather is diagnosed with advanced stage lung cancer and the doctor gives an estimate of 5 weeks left for him. The old man's children are well established  business persons, software engineers in USA, Australia and India. They take a detached and practical view of his medical condition deciding to put money, jobs, work over their love for their father. But the hero flies from USA to stay with his grand father the minute he learns of his illness. He decides to make all the unfulfilled dreams of his grandfather come true and celebrate each day left till his death as a festival..hence the title 'pratiroju pandage'. How he was able to convince the other family members to prioritize relationships over money and to reevaluate their bond with their once beloved father is the essence of this movie. 

Loaded with humor and dialogues that are reflective of the current prevailing mind set among people, this film is a comic satire on the current generation and their shifting values. I have watched this movie twice and the second time also it was not boring to watch. Hero sai dharam tej is a newbie and is not well versed at acting but tries his best to fit the role of a nostalgic and caring grandson. He could have pulled it off with ease with more experience. Rao ramesh as hero's father breathes life to the film..he becomes a brilliant and perfect comedian. With the right expressions and correct timing for dialogue delivery, he shines well.  The other characters fit their parts nicely to make this a comic, wholesome family  entertainer..

Rating: 4.5/5 Genre: Historical fiction, Drama, mental illness A mesmerizing tale! One of the very good books I have read in a while! A young girl named Grace Marks of sixteen along with a man James is accused of murdering her employer Mr.Kinnear and his mistress in cold blood. They run off to United States from Canada from getting caught. But police eventually get to them and James accuses Grace of instigating him with the murder. Grace tells different versions of her story during her arrest, trial and confession. She also suffers from lapses of memory as to what has happened and how she has ended up in company of James. James gets a death sentence and Grace gets life imprisonment on account of being a young girl who is quite susceptible. So she is locked away in a penitentiary in Canada. When they think she has wild dreams or is quite unsubdued, they commit her to a mental asylum where the conditions of living and treatment are not sanitary and quite harsh. Some respectable persons

Easy Journey to other planets - A.C.Bhaktivendata Prabhupada - book review

Image
Rating 4/5 Genre Religion,Spirituality, Evolution For starters, this is not a science book. It does not lay out a step by step plan for the construction of spacecrafts and satellites to help transmigrate masses of people between planetary systems. Why I am saying this is because the title can be misleading. Srila Prabhupada prescribes perfecting the art of meditation and bhakti yoga in order to develop an ability of moving to higher planets. He presents his case to the readers as to why they should opt the yoga method as opposed to scientific methods for traveling to other planets and calling them home. He calls the endeavours of scientists to reach other planets through spacecrafts a waste of time and whatever success they yearn for as meaningless. It is easy to see why this work of literature rubs a scientific minded person the wrong way. Those who are not acquainted with the teachings of iskcon or haven't read other works of Srila Prabhupada might call it a little extrem
