All Indian cricket fans should be very happy with the performance of the Indian team in Australia. India has beat the world champions on the Australian soil by winning two consecutive final matches against Australia. This is the first time ever, India winning in SCG [Sydney Cricket Ground]. In the mean time, India Under 19 team has won the Under 19 world championship beating South Africa. Obviously, this should be the dual delight for BCCI. Sharad Pawar and his colleagues must be very happy with their boys performance.
A biography of Tamil superstar Rajnikanth, penned by noted author Gayathri, was released here on Thursday.
Veteran journalist Cho S Ramaswamy handed over the first copy of the book to the superstar’s daughter Soundarya Rajnikanth.
Lauding Rajnikanth for his phenomenal success as an actor, Cho said Rajnikanth was a believer in spiritualism but he is not a spiritualist, an observer of politics but not a politician and an actor but not a showman.These qualities made him a great personality,” he added.
If Rajnikanth decided to enter politics, as per wishes of the people of Tamil Nadu, he would provide an honest government in the state and would develop it as one of the finest states in the country, Cho said.
Former Director of CBI D Karthikeyan said Rajnikant was a pleasant man to move with and a man of humility.
Soundarya Rajnikanth said she was “proud to be the daughter of a great man”.
Gayathri said Rajnikanth had narrated events of his life with great patience for the biography. “Youth have a lot to learn from him”.
The 59-year-old actor entered the film world in 1975. His ‘Sivaji the Boss’ was a roaring success in 2007.
Today, I visited the Sriperumbudur engineering colleges to invite them to our CSE department symposium and give them our symposium posters, with my friend, Poojith. It was really a happy and adventure ride on National Highway 4, popularly called as Bangalore highway. On the way, we saw many industries, factories and colleges. I was sitting back and Poojith was driving his bike, Yamaha G5, at 60 - 85 km/hr, really fast. But, then too we spend some time and took some snap shots of companies and impressing places on that highway. I would like to share the pictures with you, so see to it.
