You are what you do....on weekdays.


கோலமகட்துணை ஏற்றவனை மாறிடவிலகிட வாழ்த்தியபின்
காலமகட்டிய நட்பதனை தேறல்நெருக்கிய மாலைகளித்(து)
ஆழச்சுழட்டிடும் காவிரியில் துடுப்பாடியும் செல்வழி மாற்றமிலை -அது
போலசிறுச்சிறு நினைவுகளைத் தேக்கிதிரும்பிய திங்களிது

    செய்யுளில் நாலே வரிகளில் எவ்வளவு தகவல்களை அடக்கிவிட முடிகிறது! நீங்கள் எழுதியிருப்பது எனக்குப் புரிவது மகிழ்ச்சியளித்தாலும் பின்னணிச் சோகம் மனதை வருத்துகிறது.

    'இதெல்லாம் ஒரு சோகமா' என்று ஈவிரக்கமின்றி சொல்லிவிடுகிறார்கள். அவ்வாரில்லாமல் இதற்கு வருந்தும் சஹ்ருதயரே, நன்றி.

Have blog, will archive. What follows is from a clutch of posts written at various points in time about ThillAnA MohanAmbAL - in my opinion, one of the most thoroughly enjoyable films with a distinctly homegrown aesthetic. Due to the nature of the post, you can expect all kinds of unevenness and abruptness, which the content shall hopefully compel you to bear with.  Plunge..

The Legend of Butler Kandappar

Foreword I had intended to post this on Vaikāsi Anusham.  But today is Ayōthidāsar’s birthday and I saw  a tweet by the TN BJP  chief claiming  "திருக்குறளை இன்றைய அச்சு வடிவத்திற்குக் கொண்டு வருவதற்கு அரும்பணியாற்றியவர்".   This, in in of itself is a curious claim. Ayōthidāsar did write a commentary to it from his point of view.

Story The story of ‘Butler Kandappan saving the TirukkuRaL manuscripts seems to have come from Ayōthidāsar himself,  like many others! 
I have not read Ayōthidāsar’s own’s words on the claim but many, including reliable scholars like Stalin Rajangam and Prof.Dharmaraj have made the claims that Butler Kandappar was the one who gave the kuRaL manuscript to F.W.Ellis (via Lor...

A few days back I managed to catch Thevar Magan and, as is my wont whenever I watch it, started raving about it. This time I also managed to have a conversation about it with @kalyanasc on twitter. Following the principle of 'Have Blog. Will Archive", I thought I'd post it here. Oh, the things I do for posterity! @ dagalti How much credit would like to give the late Bharathan? It is also beautifully photographed, especially Gowthami #ThevarMagan — Kalyan Raman (@kalyanasc) June 10, 2012 @ kalyansc I know nothing of Bharathan's works actually.I don't think his only other Tamil film (Avarampoo, (cont) tl.gd/hpiuov — dagalti (@dagalti) June 10, 2012 Credit Sharing - local-flavour I know nothing of Bharathan's works actually.I don't think his only other Tamil film (Avarampoo, which is a remake of his Malayalam film based on Padmarajan's script) reflective all the nice things I hear about him. Moreover, I am very partial to writers. Par...
