Eager to see 'Vaanam' & 'Payanam'

2011 will see host of good movies by actors Suriya, Vikram, Arya among others. I am eagerly awaiting two movies in the first quarter of the year [Especially during February]. First one is 'Vaanam' and Second one being 'Payanam'. While 'Vaanam' is a remake directed by Krish, 'Payanam' to be made bilingual in Tamil & Telugu is directed by RadhaMohan. Both the directors have their own style of film making. Vaanam is story of five people meeting at the climax and Payanam is about hijack of the plane and the emotions and turmoils that everyone in and around the flight undergo.

Traffic Prevention Awareness week & Happy New Year

Happy new year to all. This week is celebrated as "Traffic Prevention Awareness week". I had seen few school students telling the slogans to avoid road accidents by going carefully and slowly and holding banners in their hands today afternoon near Vijayanagar junction of Velachery. There is no need for those students to raise the slogans by coming out of schools but still they did. I was wondering if the road users especially motor bike users and auto drivers follow the traffic rules to avoid accidents which are irreparable. People should understand that there is no right for anyone to play with the life of others. Hoping for a better and healthier, accident-free city. Traffic Prevention Awareness week

UID TO NOW REPLACE PF A/C NUMBER - Financial Express

The retirement fund manager EPFO plans to replace PF account number with unique identification number, a move which will help in speedy transfer of a subscribers' funds in case of job change and allow them to track their accounts online. At present when a subscriber changes job, it takes months to transfer provident fund money from one account to another and so a large number of subscribers withdraw the entire money in their account and go for a fresh account with the new employer. The replacement of PF account number with the UID number will be done by March 2012. Reference - Financial Express
