Great weekend!

After a month long of boring studies had a great weekend.
On Saturday, had a meet with few of my very good friends from orkut.

On Sunday, went to Mayajaal with two of my school friends. We had planned to be there at Mayajaal at 10:00 am but then due to some problem it got delayed and we reached there at 11:00. We had originally planned for the 11 o clock show but then couldn’t make it up on time. So we got the tickets for 2:10 show for the over hyped Chandramukhi.

We then decided to roam around MJ because we had ample time for the movie to start.

One of my friend suggested playing pools but then when we enquired it was pretty costly. So dropped the plan of playing pools and then went on to go round the shops. But again the shops were closed and they said we had to wait for and hour for the shops to open. We were not aware that the shops are opened only at 12:00 on Sunday.
Finding nothing worth at MJ we then planned to go to Muttukad, a near by river for boating. It was an excellent experience for me, as it was the first time I was visiting Muttukad.

We hired a rowboat with 3 seater, which cost us Rs.70/-, plus rowing charge of Rs.10/-
We had to wait for about 15 minutes, as there was no rowboat that was immediately available. Though the temperature was around 40 degrees we did not feel the heat as there was cool breeze blowing from the sea.

We got the boat at 12:00 and we could enjoy our ride for half an hour. Requesting the boatman to take us beneath the bridge we started enquiring him about his experience during the Tsunami. It was an interesting story and was more so due to the way he narrated it for us. From the river we were able to see the famous Satyabama Engg College where few of my very close friends study.

The most interesting part of the boating was that we were allowed to get down and stand on a small island kinda thing at the middle of the river. It was a thrilling experience because the depth of the river as claimed by the boatman was 20 ft.

We finished boating and then started back to MJ as we were getting late for the show. On the way back we decided to finish our lunch at Arusuvai Sea view restaurant. We had a north Indian Thali as we were all damn hungry.

It was already 2:00pm and we had only 10 minutes left. So we rushed to the Hall on the way buying few coke cans and corn pufs, for us to munch during the film.
CM was screened at Screen 6 at MJ. We reached there only at 2:14 so had to miss few of those documentary advertisements and the title slides. But then we were not that very late.

I somehow feel that only Jothika has done an excellent job in the film. Rajini could have done a better job and his dialog delivery was awful with his pronunciation of words not that very clear. It was justified saying that he had a surgery done on his lips.
Overall it was a quite okay film and I was very happy to see my Hero Saurav appearing in the screen now and then. Guess Prabu will get back the amount he has put in for the film.

It was 5:30pm when the film got over and we were headed back home. On the way dropped on of my friend at a nearest bus stop for her home, we went for shopping.
Reached home at 7:00 pm I felt damn tired and went to sleep skipping my dinner!
