Used to watch Zee Tamil TV
channel at 0810 hours (தெய்வத்தின்
குரல்).Monday to Friday for the past almost 4
months. This is a program about Maha
Periyava and was going very nice.
As the program gained popularity,
it fall into the net of Commercial and now according to me lost its glory.
I think, P Swaminathan, narrator
of this program, is forced to make this program like this.
It brings old memory of my school
days, 4th or 5th class, where we were asked to expand the
hints to a meaningful story / paragraph.
Depending upon the size of the paragraph, marks will be awarded. For example hint will be given as “Mother
asked – shop – buy – vegetable”. Our
expansion will go like this: One day
morning when my mother was engaged in cooking food for myself, my brothers and
for my sisters noted she was in need of some vegetable. Immediately she called me by my name and said
that she is in need of some vegetable to complete cooking food for all of us and
asked me to go to shop immediately and bring it. I politely agreed and took
money from my mother to buy the vegetable she wanted. I searched for a bag which we usually use to
bring such vegetable from market. After finding that bag, I folded that bag and
kept in my hand to go to vegetable shop…… The story will continue in the same
way and I could make even a page on these 4 or 5 word tips.
Shri P Swaminathan is doing the
same now in this program. So many repetitions,
so many unwanted adjectives which makes me boring to see it now.
