durga is taking care of a sick rajasekhar.
January 05, 2006 Thursday updt
Durga fusses over Rajasekhar (deepaks dad) and sleeps on a chair beside his bed. The man-help comes in the morning with coffee and Rajasekar wakes Durga up and gives her coffee. She is aghast at having slept at all but he brushes aside her apologies and insists she drink the coffee meant for him and take the day off from work. Subbiah says he will take care of his master. Durga says she feels fresh and once after being awake in the morning, it is unlike her to take rest for the rest of the day and insists she go to work as soon as she freshens up and goes home after giving a million instructions to Subbiah. (too much puLLa - irukka vEndiyadhu dhaan, aanaal, romba too much-aa pOraa - she shd have made sure the night the doctor was summoned and left it at that or at least called her dad for help)
at home, Durga's dad notices his wife wants to say something to Durga who is drying her just-washed hair and she finally says was it necessary to spend the night at that house? Durga shd have let the man-help take care and Durga flares up and says, why is her mom thinking like this, does she suspect her own daughter and what if people comment on that, her heart is pure and so are her intentions and Rajasekhar is her mudhalaaLi and above all he is her God since he showed her the outside world and gave her a job and made her stand on her own two feet (earlier, it was shown that she stood on borrowed feet - one from mom and one from dad - of course, Sneha had bitched abt that - she not only refused to loan one of hers but said, how come only Durga has no feet and gets to use both of yours but I am born with perfect feet? God, here is a janmam who is never satisfied)
ok, jokes aside, Durga is really mad and goes on and on abt the virtues of Rajasekar and how even his sister is not there and so are Deepak and Sneha (yeah, right, Sneha would have been the first one to stand in line to play Florence Nightingale) and so it is up to her not to abandon that God while he was very sick. (all this for fever, God forbid if he were to have heart attack!) The mom is not satisfied and says she knows abt Durga and her good will but oor vaay enna sollumO and dad supports and is smiling at Durga indulgently (oh, what a great daughter I have look) and finally mom leaves the room.
Janani is upset at work and Thyaagu spots her and she confides abt getting the two weddings done separately as per the Aunty's wishes (durgas mom) and how Giri insulted Kalidas big time for each matter when Kalidas broached the subject and how after her parents' death and Manju's imprisonment, it was Kalidas who was the acting parent and he always has her best intentions and even set aside his original varan for her and acquiesced to her love interest and now Giri insults him at each juncture on the basis of one mistake that Kalidas made. Thyaagu says he will talk to Giri, that basically he is a good man and he will make Giri apologize to Kalidas. Janani continues to work and opts not to go home for a day off, as Thyaagu suggests.
The bad villi is waiting impatiently for a adiyaaL near a temple and reprimands him when he comes late and gives him a lemon (mandirichadhu) to be kept somehow in a corner of any room in Kalidas's house. He baulks at the idea of going to Kalidas's but she gives him ideas - how he can go disguised as a salesman, telephone guy, cable guy, plumber, etc and then proceeds to list out what would happen once the lemon is placed. Kalidas and his garlicky relatives (avan kudumbam poondOda ozhiyumnu sonnaa - I just made a literal translation) would see utter disaster.
the camera freezes on her close-up evil face....
......muhurtham vELai varum....
any close-ups, be it teeth or face (especially in tele-serials) gives me an allergy as they are badly made up. wish they would stop the practice.
