I have to diagree. When the programme took a break for News, I switched off the TV in disgust. :banghead:
What should have been a perfect moment to celebrate Sivaji the greatest actor to have walked the earth, was made into a tool for political mileage. :angry2:
Not to mention, inviting all the podusus to comment on the legendary icon and sidelining people like TMS who was seated in the back rows. :rant:
my mum told me yesterday tht theres an important show about sivaji going at 10:30am where all the actors are present including vj, so she told me to wake up early to watch it (tht was an awesome way for her to make me get up early) anyayz so at around 10am my friend called me and i woke up...thnks to him....i started watching it....twas kl...i didnt watch all of it...jus a bit...but nw i think sivaji was realy an awesome actor!
where is the statue gona be placed?

I missed the first quarter. When I switched TV on, it was Rajini's turn to speak.
That everyone mentioned Kalaignar's relationship with NT was fine, but it should not have gone overboard. Kalaignar himself took a long time to explain about prev govt, and struggle to get the statue there....and I was going "come on!!!! Get to the point!!! Talk about THE MAN!!!"
They ran a clip of NT on stage talking about his relationship with Kalaignar. It was a short speech, and it was full of meat. So many news, so many incidents, so many things happened in that small speech. Amazing. I realized now why he failed in politics. He is just too goddamned honest. When he went back and hugged Kalaignar, I just choked with tears.
A very dissatisfying program. As mentioned in posts before me, they should have talked to the people who have WORKED with NT. I was shocked to see TMS sitting behind some insignificant people.
Kamal and Rajini are fine. They have both worked with NT on many ocassions and are currently both the torch bearers.
I hope they will do another show which is a real tribute to NT.

You missed almost 70%
Yes Rakesh, Joe is right. That was abt 1.5 hours worth. But you didnt miss much :roll:
As for TMS, in all probability, the producers may have interviewed him, but knowing TMS, he would have spoken about himself instead. :shock: But this is just speculation based on what little I know.
Anyway, while the statue matters, I think the "statue" we have created for him in our hearts are more valuable and more meaningful :thumbsup:
Nov,
I think sivaji family honoured TMS last year with a nice function..Atleast I can see TMS sitting in this function ..what happened to MSV ,Nagesh etc? not invited by TN Govt?
regarding the function.. :clap:
everyone spoke good abt shivaji,s acting,punctuality etc!..but rajni spoke abt vijayakanth's political win and kalaingar's win!..
i thought he would come out with something special abt shivaji...he speaks what comes from his mouth at that time..i think!
baghyaraj's speech was nice!
i expected young shivaji statue...but its good!
where is MSV and TMS?..rediculous
they could have made a film festival for 7 days in any one of the theatres in chennai as a tribute!
