Remembering Karnataka Ratna Dr.Puneeth Rajkumar on his 50th Birth Anniversary. Long Live Anna Dr.Rajkumar family. Namah Shivay. 😇🙏

Just watched the film Bhool Chuk Maaf (2025) starring Mrigashira Asc Rajkumar Rao where he gets stuck in a time-loop reliving the say day over and over... as soon as the film got over I was like he has to have mrig in his chart & lo and behold he's a verified mrigshira asc. Nakti was truly spot on with this trope. Mrigashira natives being cast in these time-loop Groundhog Day-esque roles/films is so prominent

The phalgunis are symbolized by a marriage bed. Interesting that he's a purva phalguni sun, uttara phalguni venus & the day before his wedding was the day that kept repeating. He had to transcend his material desires rooted in self interest (p. phal) and demonstrate righteousness, becoming a beacon of solar light in order to attain the fruits of marriage (u phal). He was essentially denied mariage until he evolved & purified his soul (Krittika, Rao's rahu nakshatra) by cultivating true morality, generosity and compassion and by surrendering to the divine — specifically to Lord Shiva. The shiva lingam, the phallic source of life being another symbol of Purva Phalguni. Purva Phalguni is intimately connected to Shiva and the entire film is set in Banaras, home of the Ganga, said to be the eternal abode of Lord Shiva. He went from having a transactional relationship with the Divine (God please give me this in exchange for this) to truly experiencing the essence of devotion and the subsequent bliss that arises from opening your Heart to God (anuradha, Rao's ketu+mars nakshatra. Radhana Shakti = the power to worship) This film was fraught with themes and symbolism of mrigashira (↑), purva phalguni☉, u. phalguni (♀), krittika (☊) and anurdha (☋) and it was an absolute delight to watch.

Jailer (2023) Spoiler Review

If you like pure mass entertainment and a group of veteran actors kicking ass, you'll love Jailer.

I saw Rajni's Petta a while back and while I enjoyed some parts of it, I was largely frustrated towards the end. I also saw Nelson's (the director) Beast, and while it had a straightforward premise, some parts of it were eyebrow-raising (I still love the hallway shooting scene with Vijay, though, that was just hella cool even if it didn't make sense). So, when they announced a Nelson and Rajinikanth collaboration, I wasn't sure if I should bother watching.

I'm glad I watched it though. For one, the story isn't all over the place. The revenge angle and heist subplot made sense together.

The flashback revealing Rajini's days as a hard-core warden aka Jailer was pretty nice. I liked that his hair style looked like the one in his older movies. However, I really don't understand why the inmates liked him or became loyal to him. It was never showed what he did to make them turn over a new leaf. They just said he helped them, but we mainly saw him being extremely violent.

Okay, this is part where I reveal that I saw Jailer a day after I saw Jawan. I couldn't help comparing the action in both movies because the action in Jailer is so violent! I'm not complaining or cringing. I actually liked the over-the-top violence lmao. It's just that I was like "Oh, right, this is one of things I was waiting for in Jawan -- hyperviolence!" LMAO.

Anyway, I do love that the former inmates that helped him were veteran action stars from Kannada, Malayalam, and Hindi cinema: Shiva Rajkumar, Mohanlal and Jackie Shroff respectively. Bruh, I had goosebumps when Shiva R stepped into the house to protect Muthu's family while the Hukum song played!

Next, let's talk about the songs and bgm. "Hukum" really is such a banger of a song. And the style that they do, where they insert bits of the song's melody into cool scenes that build up and lead to the FULL SONG or at least CHORUS is such a great style because it makes you so hyped for the next badass scene!

Now, the family -- I honestly thought Rajni and Ramya Krishnan would have more romantic moments together since this is their reunion. Like, yes, they're grandparents now, but so what? It's always nice to see older people still doing romantic stuff with each other y'know.

Anyway, that twist with his son! I didn't expect them to go all the way with the betrayal but wow. It was really sad, but I liked that they went for that gut-wrenching story, too. Rajini is not much of a dramatic actor, but his performance was good for what the script called for. Also, his partnership with Yogi Babu was funny and nice. Also, those bald sharp-shooter guys! Their costume changes! That was so hilarious! And Varman's henchmen! The random funny characters and elements are really such a fun part of the mass experience.

All in all, Jailer is a really enjoyable movie for the whole family (if your kids are old enough to not be so desensitized to violence I guess).
