The Fearless Tigers- MIssion Domination


This is a video i made to show how much Indians dominated the world after lifting the world cup in 1983. I should say, Indian cricket did made us proud. The way legends have played under pressure situation, the way they performed against dominating countries like West Indies and Australia is mind blowing.

This video consists of some rare and interesting scenario happened in 80's. Handling the ball, Hatrick by a fast bowler, A nail bitting tied test, and ofcourse to compliment some of the greatest heroes, their performance and their achievement has been highlighted. A legendary performance from Kapil Deva and Sunil Gavaskar is a feast to watch.

Some of the animation effect i have used in this video is done using Adobe After Effects CS5.5, Muvee Reveal, Windows Live Movie Maker, Vegas Movie Studio HD, Proshow Gold

ChocolateS a day keeps the worries away ;)

The moment you say chocolate to some one, what do you infer !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 
"A smile on the face, Change of mood to joyful, A small excitement, Instant flow of energy and Ofcourse one will be looking forward to eat one". That is the power, Chocolates hold till date, a symbol of happiness.The best way to share happiness to others. I personally likes chocolates for many other reason.

   Chocolates may not give the required nutrients, but it gives necessary energy to swap to a good mood. I should say Chocolates played a major role in my life right from my school days. It always gave me a joyous mood, let it be giving to others on my birthday or sharing it among friends and collegues.
Some of my favourite chocolates during school days would be Mango Bite and Koka Naka, candies which are very famous that time, its almost extinct in reason days. It lasted till my 5th standard then i swapped to BUNKERS, not a day went without eating that. Once the school gets over, i'll buy that from the opposite shop, since each pack will have 5 chocolates, ill always share it with friends. In the same time BOOMER and PIM POM too was so famous, so we used to take on alternative days. I still remember one of my friend used to buy that full box of boomer and used to bring some for friends daily. Eventhough pocket money during school days is less, we friends will share and still will go with chocolates. Chocolates after lunch, chocolates at the end of last period, choclates on birthday, chocolates on independence day, republic day, teachers day, childrens day, Handfull of chocolates, school life with enjoyment.Those were memorable period of chocolates in my life.
After my school days, these candy's vanished with time. I m forced to try new chocolates. This time i found a different variety, a chocolate which is still famous, MUNCH.. I used to eat some 3  or 4 in a week. As the time progresses, went on to try different brands of same kind of bar chocolates PERK and KITKAT.

   One Interesting thing is that, i haven't tried any diary milk products till my college days, But it is my mom's favourite always, then one day when my mom asked me to try Diary milk FRUIT & NUT. I just got addicted to it later. Whenever i go to shop, ill come back with one Fruit and Nut. and Inbetween tried some other chocolates like milkybar, Bournville. Myself and my mom used to experiment lot of foreign chocolates and some untried Indian chocolates too. But nothing impressed me

   After my college days i joined TCS in bangalore, The intensity of consuming chocolates slowly reduced for some months, May be because My favourite chocolates were never found very often, atleast near my office zone. Then one day my collegue gave me a 5 Star CRUNCH, infact that is only chocolate available most of the time in my office. Fortunately the taste of that one almost resembled fruit and nut, but still it couldn't beat up diary milk's Fruit &Nut quality and taste

   The only chocolate which i never liked when i tried it first and started to eat like anything is SNICKERS. I didnt even heard about this chocolate before. It  is one of my friend's favourite actually.  Bought it for my friend and then i also tried it, Din't like it first but when i tried it for second time, i dont know why i liked it again

   I always look forward for this moment, to eat chocolates with my mom in home.The moment i go home, first thing is do is to check for the variety of chocolates in the freezer. i'll not be disappointed, my mom will always keep some colourful yummy chocolates for me ;)





 I dont know when the day will come when i say i dont want anymore chocolates in my life,  Who knows that day might not come at all. After all Chocolates become part of my life

Chocolates, an undeniable friend in my daily life

A Bouquet of happiness - சின்ன சின்ன சந்தோஷங்கள்

Instant Things that strikes my mind when I think about happiness

It mus be felt rather than jus reading it. So feel it

Early morning sleep after snoozing the alarm
Favourite casuals on Friday
Govt holidays comes in weekdays
Window seat Train travel
Getting appreciation from team lead
Making someone smile till last breath

Walking in drizzle with close friends
Weekend outing to favourite hangout
Midnight badminton under street lights
Flavours of Chocolates and icecreams
Friends giving a surprise birthday party

Mom making our favourite dishes
Dad buying a surprise birthday gift
A winning six in a cricket match
A visit to native after long time
Never ending balance in mobile
Favorite dish in terrace under moon light

Fast and crazy riding in sharp turns
Late night movies nd pc games
Long shower in summer.
Meeting unexpected friend coincidently
Getting a call from a old friend on a boring day.

The smiling moment after a big fight with a friend
Much expected Friend request getting accepted in Facebook ;)



These thing mite not happen daily, but when it happens, it feels really great. It may last only for few seconds, but still the moment is priceless

-Wordings from the fast bowler of our team, +Vinoth Kumar inscripted in orkut on Feb 1, 2009

+Vinoth Kumar, a very different and unique and smart and helping character, very soft and aggressive  mixed of both, likes his attitude in cricket field, never give up so easily. Personally he always been a nice welwisher  to me. thanks buddy, your wordings jus reminded me how i much i missed college life and those exam preparations in the morning. Actually we never study,we jus have our book and only chat and laugh those 2 hours...nice memories


"Generally there are always 2 types of students. One who studies well and others who is so naughty. But only in BARATH you can see the mixture of both.
About him - He takes everything easily, doesn't know how to keep a secrets(especially with close friends), informative,
smart, his doubts are the best thing.
Simply a friend everyone should have.
When i think of our friendship its been almost 7 years. We never had a fight or ego clash.Except a small misunderstanding
few months back. but i know that doesn't going to stop us.
i feel proud to be his friend...Thanks for this barath...
My one and only advice to him is be careful with "____",he knows whom i meant in the dash.

Hope and pray that u should enjoy ur life and be like this forever...
