ಕೆಲವು ಬೇವಾರಸಿ ಟಿಪ್ಪಣಿಗಳು

With no hope on the present generations' abilities to keep up with the "slang kannada" genre, I have taken up the task of de-mystifying few closely related slang usages in this post. Here it goes.
You should have heard:

1) ನಿನ್ನ ಚೌಡಿ ಬಿಡಿಸ್ಬಿಡ್ತಿನಿ
2) ನಿನ್ನ ಚಮ್ಮಡಿ ಸುಲಿದ್ಬಿಡ್ತಿನಿ
3) ನಿನ್ಗೆ ಹಿಡ್ದಿರೊ ಚೆಳಿ ಬಿಡಿಸ್ತಿನಿ

you could have heard the above usages at the following instances
1) when an elder person is ranting in your family, like your ಶೆಡ್ಕ or ನಾದಿನಿಯ ಸೊದರಮಾವನ ಬದರಯಣ ಸಂಬಂಧ 
2) your PT mestru (ಮೇಷ್ಟ್ರು) using it to erase off your senses from your ಬುರುಡೆ 
3) a police man using this before interrogation

the basic difference between these sentences are that you use them in the following instance:
1) ನಿನ್ನ ಚೌಡಿ ಬಿಡಿಸ್ಬಿಡ್ತಿನಿ is used when you want to 'indicate' (just wish to do so) that you want punish the one in question
2) ನಿನ್ನ ಚಮ್ಮಡಿ ಸುಲಿದ್ಬಿಡ್ತಿನಿ is used when you want to indicate that you really want to harshly punish,like met out corporal punishment to the one in question but just do that by venting out your anger
3) ನಿನ್ಗೆ ಹಿಡ್ದಿರೊ ಚೆಳಿ ಬಿಡಿಸ್ತಿನಿ is the sentence used when you want to get rid of irking 'attitude'( ಪ್ರವೃತ್ತಿ) of the one in question


I hope this enlightenment gyan on colloquial  lounguage helped you to understand and use kannada in a better way!


And by the way, if you have not understood what I was telling all this while, then see the title. The title itself says everything about this post, its a ಬೇವಾರಸಿ ಟಿಪ್ಪಣಿ                 [ for Thames peepals: useless post]

DIY: Telugu Movie in sure to succeed steps

The markets are doing good. Everybody would want to take advantage of it, especially if you are a big shot! So here is a DIY recipe for a Telugu movie in sure to succeed steps!

Characters you need:
  • A Male lead, with a great, rich, politically strong lineage 
  • An (atleast 30%) Attractive female lead. No preferences on regionality , political affiliation, doesn't matter if she cant understand/speak the language
  • A sidekick to the Male lead, no compromises here, choose industry certified actors 
  • Free to choose any number of villain characters. But make sure each's last name is 'Reddy' and also they are pedophiles and/or misogynistic  
  • Make sure to sign up 'Mummaith Khan' for Item/Semi-cabarets 
  • Father / Mother roles based on the plot
Plot/Story line:
  • Make sure some plots/story line does take place in 'Rayalaseema'(This is a must)
  • Do not worry about 'Logic' in the movie, after all you are not a 'Vulcan'!
  • The Male lead should have the Power to have any Power he wants! Like all the powers of  X-Men, Justice league, Tintin..... , any and every power!  
  • Fit in as many fight scenes, although it goes without saying the Male lead should win all the time
  • Since you signed up  'Mummaith Khan', Do not forget to put in the Item/Semi-cabarets
  • Not to forget the female lead, put in as many songs(commercial duets, shot in phaarign) you want (based on your budget)
  • Make the run length of the movie as 3 hours min, else audience will be left dis-satisfied
  • Then juxtapose all the sequences, come up with a very commercial title for the movie
  • Voila! You have a commercial Telugu movie ready! Rest of the procedures required to market it, keep it alive in the box office etc is out of scope of this post!
All the Best!

How to make others believe you are in a job(and to make them jealous)

Ok, assuming that you got into a job (or even if you didn't) after college and made necessary status updates on Facebook, its time for you to show them that you *really* are in a job(or atleast make them believe)! So here are some tips to do that:

1. Take photos of you along with your group, in front of your company hoarding(obviously)
2. Put up photos of the hotel/suite where you were hosted/inducted
3.Next, take photos while you were training and also dont forget to mention how you played Counter Strike after the training! 
4. Put up photos of you and your group's celebrations after the training(with cake etc etc)
5.The most important part: Take photos of you along with your colleagues with your ID card leashed and flashing around your neck!
6. After few weeks, put up photos of your team's outing and update how amazing the trip was on Facebook.
7. All through mention in chat/FB statuses how you stayed back and worked on weekends!

All these steps are time tested and proven to succeed in making your other frenemies(friend cum enemies) jealous! 
However, please note that these are chronologically stated activities of a newly hired graduate!
All the best!
