Annamalai, back to his clear and confident best in the press meet: "If BJP was asked to ally with Naveen Patnaik 10 years back, would BJP have won Odisha today? From Zero seats in 2004, to 1 seat in 2009, now we are ruling Odisha. This is how a party would grow - step by step. I'm here to grow the party in TN, not to adjust with anybody. If the party wants an adjustable leadership, they will assign such a leader" Looks like KA is staying the course!

'Bad Girl' director Varsha about wanting to break the narrative of women being portrayed as flowers, pure, Pathini (chaste & devoted), motherly/godly because it was too much pressure for women. Makes sense, "Enjoyment without responsibility" is D value.

Anupama quotes Kabir Khan (dir of Ek Thaa Tiger) : I can forgive bad acting & sloppy scripts, but can't forgive bad politics. She calls Dhurandhar "a tough sit" cuz ISI & RAW agents don't fall in love with Aman Ki Asha like "good" films are supposed to.

Ex-Chief Election Commissioner Krishnamurthy talks about the proud Indian invention that is EVM and its non- hackability as tested by 50 DRDO engineers. At its helm, was a Tamil man the ex-CEC calls as Rangarajan. We know him as Sujatha. Vadhyar! 😎🫡 Source: Gobinath

On the trending topic of "Who is a historian?", Shri Vikram Sampath says: "The great Jadhunath Sarkar started out as a English professor before becoming a historian. DD Kosambi, a Marxist historian had a BA in Math, not history. I have a PhD in history and I'm a fellow of Royal Historical Society, but it is still not qualification enough for leftists as I'm not dyed in the wool with a JNU stamp" 😂😂

Sri Dushyanth gave an important speech in the presence of HH Kanchi Acharya on the 3 steps for Hindu unity: 1. Respect all Sampradayic Acharyas, don't fight over philosophical differences on SM 2. Respect all forms of the Divine and refrain from Devata Ninda 3. Stand with fellow Hindus against the abuse of any deity, regardless of whether you personally worship that form.

Reserve your outrage for where it truly matters, not to this post. Before Vishy, Chess was not a viable career option in India. A young Vishy himself got advise from a stranger to not risk his career playing Chess unless he was as good as Viswanathan Anand! Vishy singlehandedly built the ecosystem - which is why so many of India's GMs are from TN - due to the competitive Chess culture Vishy created. Bharat may have invented Chess, but we didn't have a 'Chess as a competitive sport' culture like USSR had. Credit where it is due. Remind me again, why isn't Vishy a Bharat Ratna yet?

Seeman's Recent Interview: "If BJP gets one more 5 year term, we will have to emigrate out of India, we will even have to forget that a country named India exists. It doesn't matter who becomes PM, after I come in (as CM), I'm my land's and my people's PM and President. Let's see who can collect GST from me after I come in"

Challenging questions raised with the PM in the interview, but Modi ji does not bat an eye while answering them! Q: "They accuse you of conducting Kashi Tamil Sangamam, Sengol ceremony only for getting votes in TN" A: "If doing these things will get votes, trust me, they will be the first one to do it. Even before me, they'd be jumping on to it. But they know these things integrate the nation and will put an end to their votebank and family politics. Which is why they are afraid of these things"
