Anyone who thinks Ilayaraja is more skilful or talented or musically brilliant than Rahman is retarded.

Casteists like Vairamuthu and Bharathiraja, and egomaniacs like Mani Ratnam, were the reason for ARR's early debut. Their peak PR for ARR & boycott of Ilaiyaraaja were exactly the reasons that helped ARR to emerge BIG. In fact, the boycott didn't dent Raja or his legacy by a…

Arranged marriage is a safety net for the socially stunted and a bailout for men who never bothered to develop a personality. Without it, half of Indian men would be single forever. ​I have dozens of friends who are just waiting for a "wife delivery" from their parents because…

what opinion on 'Indian arranged marriage' will have you like this

Exactly my experience

One of the worst things you can do in India is being humble and polite with working class people. I find it strange but that’s how it is.. being arrogant, boastful and rude gets you respect in India. Crazy place.

I am Italian and grew up in Italy. After years of living in the UK, I realised that I am a deeply Mediterranean person who values slow living, family, community, warmth, long meals. I had to go abroad to find out who I am, and to fully understand the value of my own culture.

Why can't vadakks have a normal, non-weird conversation even outside India too? "Oh! Are you from South India?" "Yes" "Nice, do you speak Hindi?" "No, I don't speak Hindi" "But I know few South Indians who can speak Hindi" "Ok, but I don't" "Ok bye" "Bye"

Came to Chennai and realised that the shit they feed you in the name of Idli and Vada in Delhi is a non bailable criminal offence

I dated a woman for three years. She had a 2-year-old son, Leo, from a previous relationship. The dad was out of the picture. We broke up because she wanted to 'party' and I wanted to settle down. One night, she dropped Leo off at my house at 11 PM. She said, 'I can't do this…

I just feel sorry for people spending money travelling to Australia for Melbourne & Sydney being told by Baz that Crawley Duckett and Pope are undroppable & part of a settled batting unit . Farcical #AUSvENG #Adelaide

"I’m an Urdu Muslim, and I’m Tamil" what a confusion you have within yourself. This is the one thing that truly irritates Tamils in Tamil Nadu. Just because you make Tamil Nadu your home doesn’t mean you need to take up our identity. Simply be an Urdu Muslim living in Tamil Nadu,…

The English were in India for over 200 years, they didn't become Indian in that time. Funny how it works.

At the height of the British empire, less than 500,000 British civil servants ran 25% of the entire planet. They did this without computers, internet, phones or income tax! Today we have over 6Million government employees for one tiny island… increasing by over 5000 new hires…

There were 6.18 million employees in the public sector in September 2025 - up 7,000 since June 2025, and 62,000 since last September. Employment in central government and the NHS are both at record highs. Read the release ➡ ons.gov.uk/employmentandl…

The reason why @KapsKom’s scathing words on the Rahul Congress hit hard, is that he is also the writer of one of the most scathing books on the Modi BJP. If there’s one thing you watch tonight, make it this.

Chennai is dirty because people have ZERO CIVIC SENSE . Feel really sorry for sanitation workers in Chennai who clean streets daily morning only for senseless idiotic public to make filthy by evening

Chennai looks like a dump tbh 🙂‍↔️

Tamils are 100 million in population worldwide with common genetics and culture, that's higher than most of the sovereign countries. There's nothing wrong in identifying ourselves as a Nation. Tamil nationhood has existed for several thousand years, can be seen in our…

Tamils aren't an ethnicity either. It's literally a made up group which spoke similar languages/dialects, like any other linguistic group in the nation of India. TamBrahms are an ethnicity, Vellalars are an ethnicity and so on. No amount of coping would change these facts.…

Tamilians, Kannadigas, Marathis and Bengalis are the ones with some spine to oppose Hindi opposition. The rest are all docile

English and Hindi but no Malayalam. If this had happened in Tamil Nadu or Karnataka then they would have burned the post-office down but Malayalis are too old and too nice to do anything about it.

The ethnic local language and cultural erasing is the new norm happening in the last 10+ years. TN is the only state where the regional language got the upper hand, rest of the states are highly compromised.
