Thaliva,
Ravi Shankar from Texas, Cresent (95, CSC). Hope
you remember me ! Doing good and having real fun reading your
reviews. That too from a person whom i know,
Office Vantha Piragu Coffee Kudipen
Piragu Lollu Express iye Thirapen (sorry i cant write Tamil
English like you).
Read your Alaipayudhe review. That train experience is the best
one Cresent, SRM, Barath guys can get in their Life. Machi i 
really felt that
we are missing them. I really liked the way you wrote your frank
comments on our Train life. Thats the speciality of your review.
I really liked 'Alaipayudhe' and I think PC Sreeram was too good.
(Thaliva I know little bit of Photography). Antha Torch light was
too good. Try to call me when you find time !
Ravi. (Porai My other Name).

Vadyare:
Ora Kallakal ma. sirichu, sirichu vayre poonachu. send some money
to consult a doctor (with a good insurance who has got a plenty
of providers in NJ). it looks like either i will be sent out of
the project or i get admitted in a hospital for my odd behaviour
- laughing loud/alone in the cubicle.
oh my goodness. every time i get a lollu review, i think of
taking a print to read at home. but i can't resist reading the
review and get noticed by everyone for my behaviour.
thanks for the review and continue to do that. My heart feels as
if i am in madras and reveiewing this movie with friends in the
evening in a roadside place where we used to meet daily. your
comments on the waiting on the railway station took my memory
back to 84 to 87 where i used to do the same from kodambakkam to
menambakkam when i was studying in AM Jain.
thanks to whoever gave my email address to your mailing list.
thanks to you to keep my mind fresh on reviewing a movie like
what we friends used to do a decade back.
thanks once again. keep up the work.

hi Prabhu,
As a sister of an SRM student i felt my brother retellling his
train experiences from Nungambakkam to potheri. Just like you, my
brother too travelled from nungambakkam railway station to
tambaram and then to potheri ( I don't remmeber whether it was 
potheri or
kattangolathur ). He used to come and tell me of his hilarious
experiences in the train. :):) ....i was reminded of them...if my
brother had gone thru this review, sure he would have said thanks
for bringing back those college days thru that review. Nice
reading... Regards, Kalpana
FROM : DR. LAKSHMI NARAYANAN, NORMAN, OKC
Prabhu, Cool review! Nowadays you have started praising
all heroes and male guys in a movie! You like Madhavan so much
and few weeks ago you wrote so ecstatically about Tom Hanks in
Philadelphia!! What is happening? Satya, did you notice that
Prabhu is kinda getting skewed?! The next time you meet him, you
may stay a little away from him!! Also, he has totally derogated
the description of your sweet dream Swarnamalya!! Sabash,
sariyaana pOtti! Soda Sunder!! Start your job! I will watch from
distance!!Narayanan.

Dear Prabhu,
I read your Alaipayudhe review. I am Ganesh working in New York
city. Bharath 91-95 (CSC). A big time Lollu Express fan. Your
review was just what i thought. In fact i enjoyed your review
better than the movie. That Brilliant tutorial comparision was
the best you have ever wrote. That was simply LE's touch. I was
an instructor in SSI for six months and many used to develop
'Loveware' as you said in your review.
Your comparision of K.T. KUNJUMON with his fingers crossed was
Touch of class and only LE can give such imagination. Do you know
what happened to his movie. I think his son and simran were
acting in it. I cant stop laughing. That torch light was too
good, Pizza and Mambalam model Keep your good work and update
your site frequently
Ganesh.
FROM : SAMYUKTHA, HOUSTON, TX
A nice review for a nice movie. I really enjoyed your review.
It's a simple story with a very good screenplay. Photography
& Music 
is a
plus plus. Madhavan,Swarnamalya & The person who has acted as
Madavan's father - all new comers have done a great job - cool
acting. As you said I pity Ajith for marrying Shalini. Maniratnam
after a break has given a very good movie, but he should have
avoided some cinematic handling here & there. For example,
the house in which they stay, that was too much, though he would
have thought it is creative ?? or whatever & I think the
movie was dragged a bit in the climax. Other than this, It's a
well taken movie. Your picnic with thayir sadam & puli sadam
& Torch lights for PC Sreerams movie .. Good one Prabhu. You
are very spontaneous in your comments. And Suddenly you've
started giving advices also in your comments. As others said you
started liking Madhavan, Tom Hanks, & you wear chudithar. I
don't know, Take Care!! Good work & Keep Going!

Machi quite a big review by u...It's a normal film with a slight
Maniratnam's touch...Esp in the climax...The total story just
revolves round with the two people...u have taken madavan to
great heights For sure he is even better looking than Ajith and
Vijay , acting is also good...But i don't know why he keeps
smiling( Elicha vayan) always...
Dai ethu romba da...
"SWARNAMALA looks exactly like this. Take TWO BIG POOSANI
KAYE. Place one Poosanikaye above the other one. TAKE TWO
Sorakaye and fit it as hands and TWO more small Poosanikaye as
Legs" This is better....Take one apple cut it into 2 pieces
that makes her cheeks ...take plumbs and fit it as her
lips...Machi Sathya ethu pooduma...
SWARNAMALA is cho sweet...She is better than that sappa kaka
Shalini...
I don't know y madras is shown worse than it is...esp the railway
station, trains and even houses...
And For sure this film would bring pleasant memories for those
who went in train for college ...I remembered the days in which
we use to go to S.R.M and as u said jollufy all the females...
"Even we did a FASHION SHOW in our college in
"PREMONDADA STYLE". We got some SAMIYAR DRESS from
KODAMBAKKAM and walked here and there in our COLLEGE
CULTURALS"
Machi I cannot forget that...Superb galeej in that
culturals...And i know the dance was cancelled in the middle due
to over gallej...And that too the Permananda role suits u
perfectly...
Great job...In this review u have explained about love more than
Maniratnam in this movie...

FROM: KESAVAN, PHILADELPHIA, USA
dear prabhu,
An usual story without having any specialities from Maniratnam.
This film is not like Maniratnam's film , sounds to me like a
C.Sundars films with some special effects.

Machi Prabhu, Quite a nice review. Indeed, it reminds us of our
college days. All that jollus in T.Nagar Park, beach and lollu
girls calling us "machi" etc were all fun. Kalakitte

style.Lollusatya.....

Hi Mr Lollu
Your Lollu Express is really very cool.I read your Alaipayuthe
Review.It
was quite interesting to read it.As you rightly pointed out in
this review, this film made me to recollect all my days when i
used to travel in suburban trains from GUINDY TO POTHERI.The
movie is very good, and your depiction about swarnamala is
superb.From this Alaipayuthe Review,i came to know that you've
developed a lot of LoVeWaReS. HEY! IS IT 100% BUG FREE?
Keep it up

Hey prabhu,
The comments about the movie is simply supereb. I think Madhavan
is like Hritrih Roshan of mumbai. Hritrih Roshan's Kahona Pyaar
hai is superduper hit, simlarly like alaipayuthey. Mahadevan is
unlike of all heros, (all other heros who show some stunts, some
hilarous look). He is supereb. The story line is similar to Mouna
Ragaham. Not much difference in the approach. HE is like karthik
in mid 80's.
I like the movie due to songs.. Ur
comments are really good. The way u express
ur comments are really great.. Keep it up da....

Hi Prabhu,
Your review of the film Alaipayudey is really fine. I too saw
that film and enjoyed it very much. Hope you would have heard the
songs from the film Kandukonden kandukonden. All songs are simply
superb. Shankar Mahadevan's song Enna seiyappogiroi is excellent.
I like the way in which you review the movies. Keep in touch.
Bye....Udhay.

you a couple of times when I was studying in Bangalore, some
months back.
Hi guys...I have been visting ur
site for quite some time and it had been fun through out. I was
there when u guys wee watchin alaipayuthe at columbus. That was a
nice movie..n the review was great! Hey, I dunno if all u guys r
from SRM?...I am one though...n i have a request... I really
would like to join u guys... n contribute somethin... Would i get
a chancejeyenth
Hai prabu,
i'm senthil from kansas city.
I read you LE comments and enjoyed it thoroughly. Your
comparisions of telugu movie fathers to mount road b.milk men,
shalini to ice more girl are all great. The peak is vat-69 and
pri.pickle.
CORRECTION
In your Alaipayudhe review you have mentioned about an MS return,
actually that character says he is doing his post doctrate or
something like that in medicine and i have seen many tube-lite
ballies who do graduate studies here. Even I was like that in my
MS days here, 3 years back, but now after gym, tennis etc, i've
built my body like madhavan, though not likeschwazneger. By
nature i'm somebody like you, making fun,comparing and a humorous
person. I would like to join your LE circle.
SATYA A GREAT SWARNAMALA FAN .... His views on Swarnamala
....
English Peters please excuse!!!!
OOOOoooooooooooooooooooiiiii, Eeeeena da eena.....How dare you
call my Swarna, a pumpkin. Magane, Dangu vaaru arundhudom.
(Munjile yen kaia vaekka). My adiyals ("Quarter Govindan,
"Torture" Dharma and "Half-Boil" Arumugam)
will be reaching your place anytime. She has "ALL" the
neccessary "Items" that a female should have. MAGANE,
you will appreciate Rambha just because she shows you her thighs
and "K..." but not swarna, isn't it?? Dei, Swarna will
not expose because I have asked her not to. I have asked my
parents to talk to her parents and she will be my wife soon. For
guys staying in Columbus, please vacate your place or move to
safer areas as there will be a soda bottle fight there.
HOW THE HELL, CAN YOU SAY THAT SHE IS FATTTTT?????? I think you
don't know about "Soda Sundar".... I want a reply from
you about this. Seri, As my guruji (Dr. Narayan, if you are not
aware) had mentioned, you seems to be talking more about the
guys. Recently, you said Denzal washington is the sexiest man,
what's wrong,buddy?? You also have mentioned about having fun
with some guys on saturday!!. I think you have
"RODomania". Better consult Lion. Kalimuthu or have
frequent doses of "AndaKabala Legyam". Lollusatya.....

FROM : THIYAGARAJAN, DAYTON, OHIO, USA
Oh my Gad Showers of praising not good for health buddy So Prabhu
don’t mind, I’d refrain from pouring more in I’m a
bit KANJAM in this
I heartily appreciate the review..
Don’t want to hang around the pluses, which ppl have already
done.. Swarnamaliya, not fat at all to be called as FAT..
she’s got a cheek which deserves to be pinched !!! And u
‘#@$@!$!@’ call’er fat.. How dare u?
I wonder, how come u missed the last scene...
When Shalini asks, "Bayanthittiya ? "
This guy says, " Uyire Pochu !! "
Man, that was too much of a dialogue delivery.....
Makes me feel, Sometimes Manirathnam’s oneliners does help.

HOW TO GET BEST CLAP AWARD IN LE BY SATYA
Folks, These are a few things that you should observe after
prabhu's review [You need to be a girl to qualify....]
1. Always start with "Nice Review" or "Excellent
Review"
2. Use words like "Rolling with laughter",
"Stomach ache due to laughing" etc
3. Don't forget to write "Nice Imagination" (Though
very weird sometimes)
4. Also "It made me remember my college days" (Very
important)
5. Last but not least "Prabhu, YOU ARE THE BEST"
Hope you all got it!!
If not, consult with Suha, She has won it several times.
Lollusatya.....
SUHAS REPLY for THE BEST CLAP AWARD:
Oi! ungalukku ellam poraamai...Prabhu oru nalla creativity ulla
talented guy...and I don't like to praise anyone...remember the
times I've criticised him and u all kalaasufied me? I can do that
too..if I feel I don't like something he does....he'll
definitelytake it in a good way again...if vambu izhuthufy...u
may qualify to become my anna again...(U already know I look a
little like Swarnamalya(except her tyre body)...so think about
it...if ur a soda sundar....I can be...Soda Suha...enna ondikku
ondi....eyyyy...

Lessons learnt from a tamil film!!! Alaipaayude!!!
1. Never miss a marriage of your friend in the village because
some city figures do come there and they may or you may get
interested in each Other.<BR><BR>
2. Never ask a stranger about a girl unless you are sure that he
is not her father.
3. If you travel by minsara train please look out of the window
;-)
4. All software engineers think logically ..[or atleast they
think so] otherwise how would you end upto 70 females from 3.5
million?? [and they have a couple of them as friends who would
agree to this logic]
5. When you first meet your girl and she shouts at you and asks
whether you have no other work, take this word:" that is the
best sign a relationship can get started with" and don't
forget to speed in the beach shouting at the top of your voice
"Ava enna thittita!!!"
6. The easiest way to let your parents know your lover is to
invite her to your house and inform others about your plan.[and
she should know to sing "alai payuthey" with a voice
like Harini !Guys of HFC remember his point!]
7. When you say "I love you" try to know what it means
because girls now a days expect you to know what it means.. [Hero
: "I Love You" heroine : "appadina" ??]
8. Never let your parents to go and do the talking! They spoil it
up.
9. When a girl says about 20 weeks and 20 months logic wrt lover
and parents don't worry, she would be the first one to
defect!
10. When your daughters suddenly wear gorgeous Saris please be
sure that she is either going to her kadhalan's house for a
function or getting thiruttu married.
11. When you do a "Thiruttu Kalyanam" get Rahman to
sing his version of "Mangalyam Thanthunane" since the
old version is
considered unauspicious in such occasions!
12. Even marriage registrars are happy about "thiruttu
kalyanams".
13. Your house owner is not worried about you working in a
software company or an underwear company ;-)
14. When you hug your wife's sister [for reasons of your own]
make sure your wife is not in the vicinity. Your
wife's husband wont mind though.
15. There is some "Ilicha vaayan" Software company in
California who would give a $2 million contract to a
software outfit in Chennai with a staffing of 5 to 6 people.
16. If one of your friends or brother go for "Pen Parkkum
Padalam", go with him since she might have a younger sister
who might "not" be married
17. Even Doctors are caught up in the TLA [Three Letter Acronyms]
frenzy .. They have their own TIG [Trust in God]
18. After Doctors say TIG, it is finally the lover crying in the
bedside which would finally let the patient come out
of Coma.
And finally the message of the film :
When you talk to your girl please add this line : "Nee alaga
illai.. nee illama vazha mudiyathunnu ninaikkale .. aana please
road cross pannum pothu paathu cross pannu"
