Moron Called Karunanidhi
I am not a great believer in philosophies of Narendra Modi but his religious personal belief have not come in way of his prime focus, development of the state. Even the intellectually stunted left has shown tremendous foresight in West Bengal, Haryana and Punjab have managed to grow even under the most corrupt political system possible, for god’ s sake Bihar and Orissa are showing signs of growth and what is Tamilnadu doing trying to dig up a piece of Sea which no one is going to use.
I could write a treatise proving that Lord Ram existed in some form or other but that is not the issue we have. The broader problem is the abyss in which Tamilnadu is in right now , where a bunch of wimps who are religious beyond compare allow their leader to pass uncharitable comment on their belief and fete him for it.The solution lies in the Tamilian actually growing a spine and stop believing that the bunch of hair below his nose makes him a man.

Shahrukh and Internet Community
The comments section of any movie review on Rediff is one of the best place to see this phenomenon , but you would find these creatures in other places too, like passion of cinema or Indiatimes . This is the so called elevated intellectual and SRK bashing brigade. I just noticed that irrespective of the movie being reviewed there would be at least a couple of comments on how SRK is a bad actor and how his movies suck. I presume this the bunch that writes the comment on the web and then heads straight to the adlabs website to book a ticket for next SRK movie , the collections of his movies do not seem to reflect the anguish of an average dimwit blogger on the rediff. Even super dud like Don seems to have grossed enough to send the producers laughing all the way to the bank. A commercial disaster like Paheli finds its way to Oscar nomination and past achievements need not be discussed here at all. I am sure a movie and the stars in it are not merely some people playing parts for which they are paid. We in India pride ourselves on ability to associate with the protagonist on what we want to do ourselves but are unable to even muster courage to think about it. It is for that reason alone I like SRK better than any other hero in Indian cinema, he presents a whole rounded role model. Irrespective how much my web friends want to argue SRK is yet to see the other side of law for either shooting a grazing buck or razing the city muck or innocently holding weapons for people who destroyed a city and all in good faith.Neither has after all the years of struggle together short changed the spouse for a newer younger model after the previous one had lost its sheen. He hasn't gone around letting his wife open fashion boutique forcing all his friends to make special appearances and for sake of damned paparazzi buy something or even worse make her an interior decorator messing up houses of whos who of nobodyland. He has more friends than foes in the Industry , he has not forgotten any of his old friends and it is visible in all the damned news you get around. He has put all he has earned back into the trade he earned it from. He has put his money where his mouth is , what more do you need from him.
I believe constructive criticism is good , but one sided rants by stunted rats on the rediff are simply unbearable.

Finally It Happened
Yes sir I do remember quite a few cries,
some mine some friends and few of the foes,
but nothing moves the thought of me as this does,
cause all it takes to scare me now is whimper just as it goes,
In my time I stood a lot of foes with might,
Some of it I won in some I put up a good fight,
but I do not sleep a wink fearing now all night,
cause there is finally a battle I do not care if I am right,
I have shared and shot a lot of great thinkers and put them in bind,
some of them were bright and some just were part of great grind,
but I am stumped for the word and all that I that have in mind,
cause what would I not do to decipher all of which is garbled wind,
I had thought I had my wants and dislikes all figured,
Some of it born with me some I acquired,
but now with a smile I do every possible act I despised,
cause what I do is not what I would give away even if the world was offered,
Yes sir I have a daughter and that is all I am for here.
