In 2006, Vijayakanth was a new entrant to politics. He was facing the election for the first time in his life. He took everyone by surprise when he announce his candidature from Vrithachalam, the temple town that is a PMB stronghold
In a press meeting he revealed the idea behind choosing his consitutency
" Leaders should not have any particular constituency. They should be able to win the support of people from any part of the state"
A really big statement! Whether Vijayakant fares well in politics or not is not our headache!
Let us see what the Congress boasts off... young turks...foreign educated, visionaries, the future of india.. Rahul Gandhi, Sachin Pilot etc
All these well-educated ones want to be elected from un-educated, illiterate masses. It is sad that they are not brave enough to stand from Delhi, Bangalore or Kolkatta. They prefer to be elected from the ones who doesn't care anout their education.
Naidu, the Tech Savy CM prefers Kuppam than Secunderabad or Hyderabad.
Sonia prefers Amethi than Delhi. Sad that she feared losing amethi and contested in (yeah you got it).. remote village of karnataka.. bellary
Dear leaders, let Amethi, Kuppam or Andipatti (Jayalalithaa's consituency) elect a leader of their choice .. a Kisan may be. Be brave enough to stand in state capitals where more educate people live!!!!

Shivaji 100 days - A compilation
Superstar Rajini's Shivaji is the only Indian film so far which has been able to cross 100 days of successful running in North America!
Shivaji, the highest budget film in the history of Indian cinema was released in nearly 40 countries worldwide with more than 800 prints. The Tamil version of Shivaji was released in 44 centers in US and Canada and witnessed historical collections. In the UK, Shivaji is the first Tamil film which got a place in the UK top -10 movie chart, and has also set a new collection record.
Now the film is celebrating its 100th day across the globe. In Canada, Shivaji was initially screened in 6 theaters and it is still running in Scarborough. Apart from Scarborough, there are 5 more theaters screening Shivaji as a regular show during the weekends. It is a very strange experience for the residents of Toronto to see a Tamil film running for 100 days continuously.
According to Ayngaran International, the worldwide distributors of Shivaji, the film is still running in 12 screens in Srilanka, drawing a good number of people. In Singapore, the film is celebrating 100 daysoin 2 screens.

Arjunan, the Publicity in-charge of AVM said that they are waiting for more details of the film's 100 day run all over the world.

Karunanidhi's Ramar
When the World boils on Mr M.Karunanidhi's statement that Lord Ram is a drunkard, I would like to point out the Ram Karunandihi adored the most - Ramar Pillai.
In 1996, Ramar Pillai claimed to be able to transmute water to gasoline by a herbal formula that he claimed was the result of a miraculous bush. Pillai obtained 20 acres of land to cultivate his bush, but in fact it turned out that he was using sleight of hand to substitute kerosene for the liquid he claimed to have derived from the bush.
I think the comments he makes now is directed at the Ramar pillai. The world knows how Karuna pampered Ramar pillai's indigeneous petrol - 'Tamilan Petrol' and how Ramar pillai ran away when he was asked to demonstrate before a group of scientists.
There is nothing bold in not retracting a statement. If Karuna is bold enough let him come out and say he doesnot want votes from all who worship Rama.

Hammer Man in Delhi
Delhi men are (in)famous for their adventures. Back in May 2001, there was a scare of monkey man. The scare of the monkey-man has engulfed the entire Capital then.
Now the mischief mongers are back with Hammer man. He is someone one kills woman, strips her and escapes.
A serial killer is on the prowl in the Baljeet Nagar area of West Delhi. Over the last two months he has attacked five women — allegedly with a hammer — leaving at least two dead and another fighting for her life in Ram Manohar Lohia Hospital. His last victim, a former nurse called Sudarshana (45), was found dead in her room in Punjabi Basti on Thursday morning.
Police say that the possibility of a psychopath cannot be ruled out though they have registered cases in only two of the assaults.
"Sudarshana was declared brought dead at Deen Dayal Upadhyay hospital. A case of culpable homicide not amounting to murder has been registered at the Anand Parbat police station but the actual cause of death will be known only upon arrival of the autopsy report," said a senior police officer.
Sudarshana's next door neighbour, Pan Kumari, said, "On Thursday morning, we woke up to see that Sudarshana hadn't shut her doors. On stepping inside, we found her dead with only the face covered."
Neighbours started keeping vigil on the streets and rooftops from 11 pm to 5 am, in the days that followed.
Sagina Khatun (25), who became the assalaint’s second victim, said, "No one believed me when I told people I’d been attacked, while sleeping in the open. But when I was struck again, this time in my room, I was taken seriously. The first time round I was hit by a blunt object, probably a hammer, on my chest. He hit my stomach the next time, damaging my intestines. This time, we approached the police but no one has been arrested."
Seema (25), who was attacked in July, when she stepped out to relieve herself around 4.30 am, was doomed to be the assalaint’s first casualty.

Flag March in Old City
A couple of days back, CPI(M) leader had a walk through the Old-City sending shivers to MIM legislators and supporters. MIM has been able to hold the old city for quite a long time without any opposition. This time defeats stares at their face.
Mecca Masjid and Lumbini Park blasts required flag march by the Army of Para-military in old-city. In absence of it Ragahvulu's march will be regarded as 'flag march'
