Suriya Spotting

I think I fell good and hard for Suriya when Anbuchelvam IPS began narrating the flashback in Kaakha Kaakha. And after that, I always thought that I'd like to be with someone like that. Not Suriya, the actor of course, about whom I know nothing, but Anbuchelvam IPS. Quiet, confident, mature, controlled.

Of course, if someone like that liked me back, the bad guys would kidnap me, behead me and pack me in a trunk. The idea of my neck and a knife being anywhere within 3 feet of each other terrifies me. So, whenever I despaired of meeting anyone remotely resembling Anbuchelvam, believe me, that thought offered consolation.

Impotent rage

Rushing by in a car on a busy road on my way to the hospital with Little K, I saw a man beating a woman with a broom. The woman and two children – probably aged between 2 and 5 were scattering as he came at her. There was such terror on the children's faces; defiance chased impotent rage on hers.

I prayed hard that he dies today. I pray that all the men who beat the women in their lives die today. Please God, let those women be free. And no, I don't care what was the provocation. Beating an adult is just wrong.
