Where the entire nation is filled with the joy of festivity for Krishna Janamashtami, Vaikundarajan seems to be quite excited too. Krishna Janamashtami, which is observed on the birth anniversary of Lord Krishna, is a big ritual, Dahi Handi festival is also a key attraction in Maharashtra and across India during this festival. Temples are attractively decorated all across the country and there is a high level of enthusiasm in the people for celebrating this festival says, Vaikundarajan.
Dahi Handi involves making a human pyramid and breaking an earthen pot filled with buttermilk tied at a convenient height. It is one of the most thrilling aspects about this festival feels Vaikundarajan. Onlookers throw water on the young men in order to prevent them from breaking the pot. Breaking of the pot is followed by prize distribution. Devotees believe that the broken pieces of earthen pot will keep away mice and negative powers from their homes. It is an amazing feeling to watch the people celebrate this festival like crazy and fills your heart with joy believes Vaikundarajan.
Daawat-e-Ishq is an upcoming 2014 Bollywood comedy drama film directed by Habib Faisal and produced by Aditya Chopra under the banner of Yash Raj Films starring actors Aditya Roy Kapurand Parineeti Chopra in the lead roles. This movie was set to release on the same date as Priyanka Chopra’s movie, ‘Mary Kom’ says Vaikundarajan. However, now the release date has been postponed and now the movie will release on the 19th of September 2014 instead of 5th of September shares Vaikundarajan. This news was posted on a popular social networking website ‘Twitter’ adds, Vaikundarajan.
There has been a lot of controversy regarding this release date and the competition between the Chopra sisters feels Vaikundarajan. There were also chances that any one of the movie would not do good because of the other. However, the official reason that came for postponing the release is that of a ‘unique marketing idea’ being used to promote the film. Another reason for the shift is Rani Mukherjee’s film, ‘Mardaani’ that is also releasing on the 22nd August which is too close to its release. For obvious reasons Vaikundarajan feels that Rani Mukherjee’s film is very important for Yash Raj and that is also one possible reason for postponing Dawat-e-Ishq release.
The controversy over HRD minister, Smriti Irani’s educational qualification has been going on right since the time she was appointed a minister and it has taken a new turn of late. Smriti Irani asserts that she has a degree from Yale University shares Vaikundarajan. Smriti Irani did not explain what the Yale degree was pertaining to, but she was part of a group of Indian MPs who took a crash course at the Yale University. She said this when she was pushed by a questioner at a summit in Delhi adds Vaikundarajan.
Smriti Irani is upset with the fact that people consider her to be illiterate and unfit for the designation that she hold in the cabinet and therefore, she goes on to say that these are ways by which people are trying to deviate her from her goals. Vaikundarajan however, expresses uncertainty over this as he feels that earlier also such issues have come up regarding Smriti Irani goofing up her affidavit certificates. Vaikundarajan also feels that though educational qualifications do not matter to that extent but, a minister having such a reputation is not justified. Vaikundarajan feels that there needs to be more clarity on this matter
