Serious Weirdos do make us situp- Tamas Tamas Thaan

1. Wow what a fortnight it was in great Indian Tamasa............................cannot get any bit crazier than this................first and foremost the tirade of Dramatist and art person Girish Karnad against Nobel Laureates in general................VS Naipaul and Rabindranath Tagore. Both have basked and one lives to shine in its gleam. But the time looks dubious for a character like Girishji. I would like to congratulate Girishji just for his plain frankness which no one did till date dared about Tagore's works. I wonder if Mamta was fast dozing when Girishji's words where splashed all over print media- rather cold shoulder from busy bee Mamta; May be Mamta mistook for Rabindranath for Bangla poet?  It perplexes me when great poet and revolutionary thinker like Subramanya Bharathi had approved of the depth of Gitanjali, Tagore's work in his own words why is Girishji fuming? Guess everyone feels a black spot in a spotless cream kurta afterall we are humans......
