speak the language!

Most programmes in regional languages have anchors who are hardly fluent. Switching to English at the drop of a hat is the norm. Though chaste tamil cannot be expected, at least some training & selection are required. Worst is, some anchors do not make much effort at all and worse try to be the centre of attraction!

And especially those whose mother tongues are not tamil speak much better than the so called locals. That includes some high-flying actors both male & female!

And finally, better tamil is spoken outside in SL, Malaysia, Singapore etc! We badly need more Yazhinis than the head in the sky put-offs who think sun revolves around them!

The article is a Paid Piper...meaning a paid propaganda. Neither the programme nor the person deserve attention.

It will be good if Rediff stops such obvious business motifs.

WHO ALL WILL SUPPORT SWAMI RAMDEV
by buvan wartan on Apr 17, 2010 11:38 AM

Ramdev who wants to form party to contest 543 seats in country’s next election could appeal to millions

People who are corrupt should face capital punishment. This is how it will stop, otherwise it won’t stop,” Ramdev said at his sprawling ashram in the northern town of Haridwar, one of Hinduism's holiest sites on the banks of the Ganges river.
“The policies which were formed by the British were not to run the country ... they were formulated to loot the country.”

Ramdev wants to withdraw the rupee and issue a new currency, with the aim of taking the old money out of criminals’ pockets. Foreign corporations will be boycotted.

Yoga will spread far and wide, especially to schools and hospitals if Ramdev wins power. He also has little time for shopping, TV soaps or cricket — another British import — though he insists these are his personal preferences. His ashram can host 6,000 people and is the nerve centre for three trusts worth $ 40 million in turnover last year, including a Scottish island now renamed “Peace Island”.

Swami Ramdev is out to “cleanse” the world’s largest democracy of 1.2 billion people of greed and foreign influences, drawing on the support of a television audience of millions and his claim to have a follower in every Indian household.

Shouldn't the name be written as Yalini to make it simple rather than writing it as yazhini.
