PSR Engineering College, where I studied, which is (more -'ly/less +'ly) known for its strict rules in-respective of controlling all aspects of a student life during on and off the college campus has let its own campus to be used for filming. Not surprising?? Then probably you was/are not student of PSR then. Anyone who studied in PSR, which is known for its philosophy(?!) of all kind of anti-entertainment would definitely be surprised at this details. And the filming is not kind of some documentary or showcasing the talents blah.. blah... the filming is for pure commercial entertainment film.
Anyhow, its my college and surprised/happy to see the class rooms I used and varendah's I ran(?@! - OK I'm hearing the mumbles... When the hell this gaint ran???? I never ran.. just walked bit fast) has been filmed.
I have got few stills from the Tamil film 'Poo'. It's story is about tender age love twined around villages like Sivakasi and cities like Kovilpatti, Chennai etc..
One of a funny fact in this film is, the hero 'Srikanth' was told studying in a Chennai based college but they filmed at my college which is in the same area where the film has been shot - Sivakasi.
There are few points you should really look at it,
Reason to fine Srikanth, his Father, Director ... Reason for banning mobile phone Srikanth realizing he is not in Chennai based college Still of ECE Block

Poo lead actress makes call to our hero who was studying in Chennai based college...
Not sure whether its because of problem in the mobile connection routing or director's intended plan... the call has reached our hero who was just studying in my college in the same area... a clip with the view of Abdul Kalam MCA Block behind...
Our hero picks up the call..
Discusses with his Girl Friend about the call.. Hey wait a second... Something is striking me hard here... Is our hero - student of PSR Engineering College - talking to a opposite sex member(or better say alien) right in front of the administrative block????? Can't believe it... PSR has done whatever it can to stop such conversions and here its happening under full public galore???? PSR management should take strong exception to this case and bring those perpetrators of this evil act to justice(sounds like FM Pranab sab's wording after the Mumbai blast? Yes its same.. because both the events - terrorist strike & girl/boy discussion in PSR - have same level of serious implication as far as PSR Management is considered).
PSR management should summon Srikanth, his father, his wife(?@ her too? yes she too, because fine has to paid by all stakeholders and PSR coffers has to be filled up), the girl friend, her father, director, and script writer to college. Contain all of them in the usual designated hostel room, conduct inquiry with all the
anti-conversation officials interrogating them all through night irrespective of what evidence presented. Lofty fines should be imposed and after paying the fines suspend them for a month. (oh cant suspend them na... they are crash course students right... So wat.. collect the fines atleast)
Another view with MCA Block behind...
Hey another thing striking me... Is he using mobile inside college campus??? PSR has policy of no first use of mobile('no first use' - sounds like India's 'no first nuclear weapon use' policy? Yes right as far as PSR management is concerned mobile phone emits radiations signals which the nuclear bombs also does when its ignited, so both are radio-active in nature and this kind of
clever relationship analysis helped them decide in banning mobile). They should summon again all of them and fine them now ultra-heavily.... PSR management should really give me now outstanding student award for giving such useful tip-offs.
Our hero tries his best tricks to connect to the call...
Still trying to speak????
Finally he realized, he is not studying in the city based college but in a remote college where getting the mobile signal is like applying RTI application to get our unbiased Judge's income tax statement. You never get either of them.
