HitOut

Dear Srinivasan Avargalae, It’s a point in time when you are more used to receiving bombardments for your resignation/ apologies/ prostrate before media requests and many more acts of guilt cleansing and i might be the single soul to write a letter asking you to do some SOUL SEARCHING. If you have been a regular TOI reader you might have got the clue from their GYAN-INNER PEACE section bang under the editorial (guest writers) writeups..............................nevertheless you must have taken to deep aversion to word TOI by now.  WHY AVERSE TO TOI!- my thinking I was pretty amused (TimesofIndia) the first 2 days when they carried Chennai  Heavyweight's  exploits off the cricketing field; to be frank it’s a newspaper's adventure in exposing a supposedly tainted Cricket administrator. In depth analysis of his links and much more..................but with TV channels being relentless in attempts to get something out of Srinivasan's mouth...

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.........
