Ravana at the helm

"I am not a Pathu Thalai Ravanan, (ten-headed demon king Ravanan in Ramayan), but a pattruthal ulla Ravanan (affectionate Ravanan)," Chief Minister Karunanidhi said today.

Taking a dig at AIADMK supremo Jayalalithaa for her remarks that DMK was her eternal enemy and the just concluded Assembly polls would be the last election for him, Karunanidhi told the state Assembly "I was described as a Ravanan. Yes. I am Ravanan, not the ten-headed Ravanan, but one who has affection for the people of the state," he said.

Will the affectionate Ravana start showing Ramayana in Sun TV so that the people can watch it on their newly acquired 14-inch colour TVs? I’m sure people would be disappointed after hearing that the TV is going to be just 14 inches. If the DMK was smart enough, they could have even bought second hand TVs and delivered it to the TN voters. Next you might hear that the TV doesn’t have any remote and will not come with a warranty.
