Mahatma Ghandi's Birthday
Ghandi's bithday is tomorrow October 2nd.
He got India independence from the Britishers by reinforcing "Non-Violence".
To commemorate his birthday, SUN TV (the tamil TV channel that is most popular in the US) is playing a recently released "Hit" movie titled "youth"
The trailer for this movie shows the hero threatening pretty much anyone and everyone who stands in his way with, you guessed it "VIOLENCE". Even the comedians in the movie seem to go around bashing people with sticks !!.
We might forget the fact that we got independence from a foreign country. Today's generation has been born in an independent country, and they take independence for granted..
We might even forget Ghandiji for having worked untiringly to get us the independence we enjoy.
But forgeting his message of "non-violence" and playing a violent movie to commemorate his birthday , tsk tsk !!!

Shame on SUN TV for the movie they are planing to show.
I am glad Gandhi is no more.! He would hang himself looking at the things going around.
narayanan sir, unga postum paththen. parithabama irukku.. idhula enga veetukku phone panninen. got advice to keep myself away from such comments on kushboo, sun tv etc.. people are downright scared of saying the right thing !!
God Bless India !!
darn, u beat me to it again! was planning to say the exact same thing today :)
Romba suththom!. Sun TV manages to outdo itself every time.
BTW, Sundar, Gandhi ai, Ghandi nu spell pannirukeengaley?. Amarikka influence a?. ;-)
adengappa, actually i should thank you.. you had posted a dinamalar article on women with bras on the streets of london (which came out almost the same time the women partying in star hotels article came out).
balaji, raththam kodhichchuduththu..
ttg, you are correct.. ellam amru influence dhan. sorry for the spelling.
:)
Haha...
Sun TV has absolutely no logic when it comes to airing movies...
Its only logic would be to air it India TholaikatchigaLil mudhal muraiyaaga!!!!!
Vijay TV is a lot better...eventhough it follows the logic of aracha maava araikaradhu...it airs movies according to the occasion....

This is so unpatriotic and reflects how poor folks in India vale their hard earned freedow. On top of this, they have the nerve to make stinging comments on how some Indians have changed after coming to US by forgetting their values, patriotism etc- total hypocrisy.
swapna, mitr
saw your comments..you will feel even more upset when I tell you that we are all supposed to use our "paguththarivu".. that according to todays sun tv news. where is this paguththarivu during the movie selection ?
:(
hahahaha.good one.nowadays gandhi jayanthi is yet another holiday for many people,that's all.
hello there! im glad to see that someone is interested in ghandi!!! My family and i watched a movie about ghandi and it was REALLY cool, interesting, and sad. Well im going to fast for one or maybe two days a week in his ohnor. i will eat nothing exept broth, water, and maybe drink some soymilk. i also hope to lose a little weight during this fast- though i doubt it will show!!! :)
KITTY KITTY LUV!!!
ALWAYS
As a public school teacher, I am thrilled to have peaceful warriors to show my youth... Ghandi, MLK, John Lewis... and thousands of women... just a few of the role-models our young people need to learn about & emulate!
