Dandiya Night!!!!

We had the Navaratri celebrations today. It started at around 7pm in the cricket ground of SMR Vinay  City and ended at 10:30pm. I had not participated in anything. It was really nice to see many people dance, and there were also many stalls outside. There was pani puri, toystalls, cotton candy, milkshakes, sweet corn, popcorn, buffet, and a lot of exciting stuff. There were non-stop performances, but there was this thing which I noticed, that two songs were repeated a lot. One of them was ‘Kamariya’ from the latest movie ‘Love Yatri’ releasing on the 12th of October, which was repeated 7 times, and the other one was ‘Nagada Sang’ from ‘Ram Leela’ which was repeated 5 times. But the songs were so nice that listening to them repeatedly was not at all a problem for me. In fact, I just loved the night, even though I didn’t do anything.
     The difference between the Elite performances (in Mangalore) and SMR performances is that here we have teachers who teach all the dance steps, whereas in Elite, all of us used to choreograph our own steps, and also, we used to teach the smaller children as well. When the anchor announced that “the girls who are coming next have choreographed their own steps without anyone’s help”, I said to myself, what’s the big deal in it, as we had been doing the same for many years at Elite in Mangalore.
    After all the performances, all the people started randomly dancing to the tunes. Almost the whole ground was filled with people dancing to garba and dandiya. Different tunes, different songs, different dance forms, all were so enthusiastic. We took a lot of photos and videos.
    Later, we had pani puri, ragada samosa, and bought a toy- bow and arrow for Vicky and returned. That was the end of our Dandiya Night.

Helicopter at Mary Hill

Chief Minister had come to Mangalore yesterday for the National Youth Festival.  He came by helicopter. In the evening, after coming back from school, I saw the helicopter in the helipad.  I went near the helipad and saw that. There were two seets in the front and six seats in the back. So nice. I told my father that we all can go in that helicopter.

V - The Movie

Image
‘V’ is a Telugu action-thriller film, starring Nani and Sudheer Babu in lead roles, alongside Aditi Rao and Nivetha Thomas. It has been one of the most anticipated movies to be released on an OTT platform. The speciality of this film is that this would be the first time ‘Natural Star’ Nani would be seen as an antagonist. Sudheer Babu plays the role of a police cop. The storyline is quite interesting, as Nani has been portrayed as a serial killer during the beginning. Each frame of every scene seems so perfect, it will really make you feel that it would have been the best in theatres. The action scenes of the film were so meticulously shot, with the appropriate ‘amount’ of music, I would say. It’s not exactly a revenge story, it’s a crime thriller. It revolves around Vishnu (Nani) having a long lost connection with Aditya’s past (Sudheer Babu). This movie was planned to be released in theatres on 25 March, on the occasion of Ugadi, but due to the pandemic, it was postponed. It ha...

Visit to ice factory

Today, Jyothi miss, Sucharitha miss and Shubha miss took us to an ice factory near . B.C road. I thought that the ice factory would be very big but it was so small and it looked like a house. There were many machines inside the factory. The first machine that I saw was called the ice plant. There were many pipes also. The floors of the second room were made of wood. Then I saw a man taking a long stick and he was pulling out the wooden tiles. Inside those were huge containers. It was filled with cold water. There was a total of 506 containers. I saw 2 men taking out the containers with some machine and keeping it in another place. Then, they took the frozen ones and took the ice out. After that, they took the huge blocks of ice to another room and crushed it into pieces. There was a machine  for that. Then, we saw another big cylindrical  container filled with ice. Jyothi miss told us that the temperature of it was -2. There were pipes all around. We enjoyed our field trip ve...
