Vetrimaran at TEDxREC

Vetri Maaran is a Tamil film director , working primarily in the Tamil film industry based in Tamil Nadu. He made his debut with the critically acclaimed 'Polladhavan'. He studied till his tenth grade in Ranipet and moved to Chennai YMCA for his high school in the hope of becoming a cricketer. After failing to get through the selection for the Tamil Nadu team, he called it quits and joined Loyola College to pursue English Literature. He was in Loyola for 5 years where he discontinued his Masters degree to pursue a career in the film industry. Taking up an elective course called Television Presentation offered by the Visual Communication Department at Loyola College in 1995 enabled him to realize his natural interest towards film making. In 1999, Vetri Maaran worked with Balu Mahendra for a 52 episodes serial called "Kadhai Neram". He then worked on movies like "Kadhal Virus", "Julie Ganapathy" and "Adhu oru Kana Kaalam", before taking up with the direction of "Polladhavan". His second movie "Aadukalam", for the first time in the history of Indian National Film Awards, has won in six categories for a tamil feature film, with 2 awards for Vetri Maaran.

Watching this after his Asuran and Vadachennai ♥️ A person doing the best, what he's in..

[@jayarajsarangapani3347]

Tamizhnadu people in general have great speaking skills. I listen to and watch lot of US & UK you tube programmes. Tamizhnadu oratory skill in particular are ver much with those standard. You guys are simply world class.

Wonderful Speech. If he has given speech with same intent before he achieved success, we would not have taken it the same way.

Vetrimaran did an excellent delivery of important life lessons through his own personal anecdotes. In this video, I couldn't find any non-sense. Every line he spoke was upto the point and profound....

[@thamizhandanaan7917]

மிக அழகாக தொகுத்து கொடுத்துள்ளார்! அருமை வெற்றி மாறன்!

[@meghanar4949]

Your speech makes so much sense sir.

[@karthikopositive3693]

Pointers from Vetrimaran sir speech. இயக்குனர் வெற்றிமாறன் அவர்கள் மேலே கூறியிருக்கும் முக்கிய கருத்துக்கள் தமிழில்.. தமிழ் நண்பர்களுக்கு வாழ்கையில் பின்பற்ற வேண்டிய சில 1st rule: Speak out your mind. முதலில் மனதில் இருப்பதை பேசிவிடவும். 2nd rule: know your true calling. Try to accumalate knowledge on that calling. ஆழ்மனது உங்களை உண்மையாக என்ன செய்ய சொல்கிறது என்பதை கவனியுங்கள். 3. Nothing is an accident in life. We take conscious decisions for our unconscious intentions. Identify what those unconscious intentions are. வாழ்க்கையில் எதுவும் விபத்து இல்லை. எல்லாமே நாம் எடுக்கும் முடிவுகள். நாம் நமக்கே தெரியாமல் நமக்கு வேண்டிய குறிக்கோள்களுக்காக முடிவுகள் எடுக்கிறோன். அந்த குறுக்கோள்கள் என்ன என்பதை தான் நாம் கவனித்து அறிய வேண்டும். 4. Once you know what u want, u have to go behind it. Immaterial of the hardship u face. In general we can't be good at two things. Toughest thing is to choose is which bridge to burn and which bridge to use. வாழ்க்கையில் உங்களுக்கு என்ன வேண்டும் என்று அறிந்த பின், எவ்வளவு கடினமாக இருந்தாலும் அதை நோக்கி செல்ல வேண்டும். பொதுவாக இரண்டு வேலைகளில் சிறந்தவர்களாக இருக்க முடியாது. வாழ்க்கையில் கடினமான விஷயம் எந்த பாதை உங்களுக்கு வேண்டியதை தொட அழைத்து செல்லுமோ அதை தேர்ந்தெடுப்பது தான். 5. Life is meant to live not to win. Achieving our dream is not winning. Think beyond it. A place with joy and peace. வாழ்க்கை ஜெயிப்பதற்கு அல்ல, வாழ்வதற்கு. நம் கனவை அடைவது வெற்றியல்ல. அதற்கு பின்பும் யோசியுங்கள், ஒரு மகிழ்ச்சியான, அமைதியான இடத்தை அடைவதே நிறைவு

[@GreatMan_from_East]

Speak out mind Know your True calling and try to accumulate knowledge on that calling Nothing is accident in life whether good or bad, consiously or unconsciously we make choices and choices design our destiny All consiously unintentional acts are unconsiously intentional We all need need to know is what are our unconscious intentions Once you know what you want, you have to go behind it, you can't do two things at same time Life is meant to live and only to live

[@youtuberiders9999]

The way of speaking and true words are great..

[@Gowtham.D]

Being open with our mind - a very valid trait to avoid mishaps in life. Often we fail to speak out only to protect our image for others.
