Poet Laureate Kannadasan

Hi folks,

I wish to refer to our Moderator's comments re- kaviarasar's'drinking problems'.

Yes, I too know of Chandra Mohan. Let me re-cap of our kaviarasar's trip to Malaysia.

Dr. V. David, although I know him personally and had visited him during his hospitalisation days prior to his demise, is an old associate of kaviarasar.

During one of his trips to Malaysia, Dato' (an honorary titile likened to 'Sir' of the Brtish Empire, T. S. Sambanthamurthi , a prominent Public Prosecutor voluntered to fetch our kaviarasar from a function. He was having a Mercedes at that time. But our kaviarasar opted for a lesser brand of a car.

Mahendra-sir, thank you very much for sharing those information. Whatever they were, it will never diminish our love for Nadigar Thilagam, MSV and Kaviarasar's wonderful talents. Excellent writeup.


Murali-sar, the dates and the situation make sense.

In any case, there are very few exceptions (especially among celebrities) for "தென்னயப்பெத்தா இளநீரு, பிள்ளயப்பெத்தா கண்ணீரு" :-(

“தமிழ்ல ஆதார சந்தத்தைப் பிடிச்சுட்டாப் போதும்! பாருங்க, சீதைக்கு எத்தனை பெயர்கள் ?
சீதா — நேர் நேர்
ஜானகி — நேர்நிரை
ஜனகா — நிரைநேர்
வைதேகி — நேர் நேர் நேர் …. இப்படி எந்தச் சந்தம் வேணுமோ அந்தச் சந்தத்துக்கு வார்த்தைகள் போட்டுக்கலாம். என்ன, எல்லா வார்த்தையும் தெரியணும்… அவ்வளவு தான்.

Regarding gossip...well hardly do next generation get to hear about yesteryear gossip. I'd find it hard to feign disinterest in this For example, I was found the MSV spin in his last post quite interesting.

I for one, am quite interested in yesteryear gossip. It is the kinda thing you don't get to hear unless you have a knowledgable (even if biased and imprecise). Surely there is no way this can be argued, debated meaningfully. But I'd hate to lose out on this en masse !

On one side, the stories are very interesting, at the same time yeah they are very personal. But when it comes to Kannadasan, we have no qualms about knowing his personal life since he himself had no issues in revealing them.

Folks, let's lighten up and let the thread be.
If you have any further comments, please PM me.

Speaking of PA, and I mean no disrespect, but do you see some kinda Kannadhasan "inspiration" there when he wrote Annan Enna Thambi Enna, Sontham Enna Bantham in Tharmathurai? Including "Sutathu, sutathu sattikal suttathadi which seemed to hint on the NT song, which was more to the point when Kaviarasar said, Satti Suttathadi, kai vittathadi. Wherelse, PA was just content with Sattikal suttathadi, so what? :roll:

By the way, Rajini's role there is definitely NTish hence the reference....there you go again, Rakesh, always bringing NT in :P
