CM Vijay has apologized in assembly today, for his party's minister committing the horrific sin of referring to Karunanidhi by his real name instead of his honorifics Kalaignar. Throwback to Cho's hilarious explanation of his usage of Karunanidhi vs Kalaignar over time 😂

As a Bengali, I had never heard of him until recently. Turns out he was a fascinating character and was one of the supporters of BJP (when the entire industry was against Modi)

He had the gumption to openly tell LKA on his annual Thuglak meet to announce NaMo as presidential candidate. Modiji continues to have affection towards TN cuz of how well Tn'ites welcomed his candidature, watch this YT video, he speaks in English:

Wow, thanks for the context. Checking this

The rapport Cho & Kalaignar shared is something I still look upto. Despite Cho's repeated criticisms, there was a beautiful friendship. I remember seeing photos of Kalaignar attending functions at Cho's place. He even visited him at the hospital. That dignified era is over

MKS coming for Pandey's dad's father condolence was also dignified. Alas, it were hardcore Dstocks who criticized MKS for doing that

Cho truly was one of the greatest 💯🎯

Cho sir was a legend unfortunately he backed a wrong horse called Rajini to the max.

@Rk_Asvalayana Cho the great 😊

I was fortunate to watch him live a few times! The real treat during Pongal was this

Cho is cho cho chuteeya 🤡🤡🤡

It was not about "Kalaignar" prefix. As per TN assembly convention, one can use the name of any CM but the prefix "முன்னாள் முதல்வர்" (former CM or late CM or Mr or Ms or Mrs) is needed while addressing. But there was no need for CM Vijay to apologize.

Could be the case, but this is what papers are stating, CM said sorry generally without stating exact reason. I recall him saying sorry in one previous assembly speech where he mistakenly called MK by his name and then corrected it

Sir, My observation was based on what ex dmk minister Velu said in the assembly that TVK minister should have used "முன்னாள் முதல்வர்"👇

Weird. He is saying name should not be used at all, only Munnaal mudhalvar title should be used. But there are so many ex-CMs which will result in confusion. Their real problem was with not using Kalaignar only I feel

He makes it confusing, deliberately. That's an aspect of diabolical #D cunning which brings out their best in "criminal passion" (copyright term of @realitycheckind) activities.

Excellent witty take by Cho 👌

😂😂

For me it's always "pavam indha vishyam KCR ku theriyuma pochu 🤣🤣🤣😄😄"

Same cho mama wanted Karuna to win in 96😀

Then imagine how bad the 91-96 regime was!

Cho would've been such a useful person for TVK ngl

What would you say when he roasted Kamalahasan as Arivujeevi(intellectual)! Hope you can watch that video as well!

An actor among intellectuals was an intelligent roast 😂🤣

🤣🤣🤣 Only Cho could come up with such phrases spontaneously!

When Jayalalithaa referred to Mr. Karunanidhi by name alone, without any salutation ( Mr.) despite being younger in age than Kalaignar - that's the moment Kalaignar responded to. Mr. Cho was after all a politician-cum-journalist. His remark was purely satirical.

Cho was an agmark sanghi hating on DMK and sucking on Modi in his final years..disgraceful..that fraud @sgurumurthy has taken it even further, shameless Tambram lobbyists

🤣🤣🤣🤣

@CMOTamilnadu @TVKVijayHQ

😂

What Cho spoken in different and what happened in assembly is different. Its traditional and accepted rule to not mention any name. Its only to call as Honourable Minster, Honourable CM, Honourable ex cm, honourable ex minister etc

🤣🤣

Cho always rocks

Cho is a real Genius 😎😎

Sarcastic speech by the one & only Cho Ramaswamy sir..

😂😂

Cho’s probity in public life permitted a vera level of irreverence to sharply point out political tomfoolery and sycophancy.

😂😂

😀கலைஞர் ஐயர் 'னு பேரு வைக்கலாம்னு ஒரு தடவ சொன்னாங்க .

He is Dakshinamurthy. Neither Karunanidhi, nor Kalaignar.

We miss Cho🙄🙄🙄

😂😂

Appo Dmk karanuga ellam Jayalalitha endru kopda koodathu Amma nu tha kooppidanum..

The legendary orator, satirist in one of his best. 👌

This guy is legend of different legacy 😂
