TTD boost to Karunanidhi’s ‘Ramanujar’

[h=2]Party sources said the TTD was willing to do the dubbing into Telugu on its own for its Sri Venkateswara Bhakti Channel.[/h]
When the announcement was made in April last year that DMK president M. Karunanidhi would be penning the script for a biographical series on the revered Vaishnavite philosopher Ramanuja, critics raised questions on the possible distortion of history by the former Chief Minister who is an avowed atheist.
But the series received a boost on Wednesday from unexpected quarters. Ostensibly impressed by the programme and the response it has received, the Tirumala Tirupati Devasthanams (TTD) has requested Mr. Karunanidhi to allow the telecast of the show in Telugu.
Party sources said the TTD was willing to do the dubbing into Telugu on its own for its Sri Venkateswara Bhakti Channel. But since Kalaignar TV owns the rights for the series, TTD officials met Mr. Karunanidhi on Wednesday to facilitate the process.
Almost immediately after the meeting, which involved TTD president Chadalavada Krishnamurthy, the official Facebook page of Mr. Karunanidhi uploaded pictures of priests holding garlands and prasadams from the Tirupati temple before the DMK president at his residence in Gopalapuram.
A senior DMK leader said the meeting was clearly a positive development. “This is the strongest answer to our critics who said we will distort the biography of Ramanuja. If the TTD wants to telecast the show, it has to be accepted that the script was clearly objective without any mischief,” the leader said.
In an interview to The Hindu last April, Mr. Karunanidhi said he chose to write the script as the philosopher-saint was a revolutionary who broke caste barriers. “He showed through his life that the oppressed and backward communities were not those to be hated and sidelined,” Mr. Karunanidhi said.
Kalaignar TV sources said the request by TTD was yet to be communicated to the channel.
“There won’t be any difficulty. It would just be a matter of entering into an agreement with the TTD,” an official said, adding that the ‘Ramanujar’ serial, which began on June 1, has crossed 160 episodes.

I could not believe it. LOL
 
MuKa works only with elections in mind...After the elections it will back to blasphemy! Will any true Hindu believe him?
 
I had occasions to move with two of MK’s relatives closely. I am following the speeches of MK for the past two decades.
He had been very atrocious in attacking Brahmanism in most part of his life time. Now he has come to the last stage of his life ………. perhaps runs the last lap of his carrier.
I don’t think that there is any hidden agenda behind the episode “Ramanujar”.
Who knows…. the all powerful God ……might have given him some change of mind and power to write this great episode.
 
We all know MK the astute politician.

He did not mind selling hatred to come to power. A la Hitler.

His value system is such that he wont mind taking advantage of every situation even by telling lies, inciting passions and by selling the ever potent opiate called hatred. Knowledge of Tamil, the existing disparities in the society, the poverty and ignorance that is prevalent in the large sections of society are all just tools for him to be exploited in his grand design.

Ramanujar is just one more tool.

In the Ramanujar serial it is all low hanging fruits so far. Wait for those episodes in which you will see MK's potential for mischief will be in full bloom. He is back in his game of brahmin baiting using Ramanujar. That is all.

Even in the photograph published, do you see the line up? It has to be two brahmins each from Iyengars and Iyers standing and posing for the photo op. How carefully presented!! LOL.

Wait. The game is only in the first innings. Poor brahmins........

LOL.

Dog's tail can never be straightened - so as to the hatred (and resultant vote bank) of Mr Karunanidhi towards Hinduism in general and Brahmins in particular. Assuming that he starts wearing vibhuti / Tiruman on his forehead and visiting temples, personally I will not believe him or his family members. I watched few episodes of "Sri Ramanujar" tele-serial. There have been exaggerated versions in several episodes, which do not find place any of the texts. Of course, Mr Karunanidhi wanted to emphasise the spirit of "radical thinking" actions of the Saint Ramanujar in a cenematic tinge. Whatever said and done, Brahmins have to be vary of DMK & allies.

may be like KAVINJAR KANNADASAN.....
 
None logical Hindu, theist or atheist will believe his stunts. Many poor TBs want to give him "one last chance" for reform or change of mind, but that is just a gimmick. Vali did this somersault few years back with this book on Ahobila Mutt Jeer. Kannadasan changed his name to reflect his love for Thirupavai. Now it is the turn of MK family. Many people know that his household is not atheist. This sudden shift started with Muka Stalin wishing everyone on Pillaiyar chaturthi and then he had to defend saying many of my cadres are theist. Ramanujar serial is a slow poison, wait till he hits the full communist propaganda version of Ramanujar. The serial is for the lowest common denominator and will not even get a passing mention among SriVaishnavas (Bs and NBs).
 
Another "andharbalti"

Seeman wants Thai Poosam as government holiday. The competitive politics in appropriating the very idols, Dk movement stood against is astonishing. Murugan and Ravanan have become Tamil gods so idol worship and theism is OK. Ramar and Krishnar are aryar so anti selective anti brahminism. The hypocrisy of tamil parties deserves oscar prize for best screenplay and direction

On Wednesday, Karunanidhi’s home at Gopalapuram in Chennai, turned into a vedic abode, with mantras being loudly chanted by priests who had assembled there from the Tirupathi Tirumala Devsathanam (TTD).

While many have accused the DMK and its leaders of hypocrisy, political commentator Gnani sees this as a positive sign.

“Karunanidhi is one politician who believes in inclusive politics. He allows others to have a view. We should only criticise him if he asked for the mantras to be chanted,” he says, adding that “If non-believers can respect wishes of the believers, the leaders who are believers must also respect the views of non-believers.”

Even we can't say that these episodes are written by Mr.Karnunanidi himself since every famous person will have a team of ghost writers and intellectuals to help. In this age,he can only utmost dictate or give guidance, not write fully since writing is an arduous work. Anyway, it is a kind of cheap publicity and vote making tantrums.
 
For TTD getting rights for dubbing " Ramanujar" into Telugu on its own for its Sri Venkateswara Bhakti Channel, the visit of Director / the top officials of the said channel are enough to negotiate.
Why did so much of priests to accompany them?
Is it a simple gesture of expressing gratitude? or some thing more !
 
The temple priests have been made into a rolling dice! TTD has acted in haste while the whole world mocks at this hypocrisy by MuKa clan!
