Before I become completely unknown name to this place I want to share something with you all which I have been thinking for a very long time now...it is about some real people who have taken up traditional values and modernism together ,so beautifully that they have become an inspiration for many of our generation people đ( I am giving two examples from Tamil Nadu but would be delighted if you can share something from your region toođł)
1.Vellukudi Krishnan
People's taste may vary when it comes to small screen entertainment in the evening, with soaps and cinema topping the list. But mornings, 6-7, are generally dominated by one voice. Gruff and soothing at once, the Tamil is both chaste and familiar.The style is lucid, diction clear and the content rich. All of these makes the audience, drawing room or public halls, listen to Velukkudi Krishnan in rapt attention. đKrishnan went on to complete C.A. and ICWA courses before joining the top rung of an MNC. Never did he venture to make solo presentations during his father's life time who himself was a great vidwaanđ
Long hauls on business meetings outside Chennai were coming in the way of his nitya karma. Rushing to the Upanyas stage from corporate meetings well after dusk added to the stress and the decision had to be taken. "I quit lucrative job to dedicate myself to Upanyas and related activities."đłhe says..đ
2.Vishaka Hari
Ah...I can talk pages after pages about this young woman because I look upto her and her katha's like anything...đł
She weaves seamlessly into her story as she describes Hanuman beholding Sita for the first time in the Ashoka Vana of Lanka. Her rasikas in that vast audience must have had the same picture as they listened in rapt silence. The spell is cast.
Meet this 29-year-old Gen X chartered accountant - with ranks and distinctions tucked under her belt (yes...she is All India No.3 rank holder)đin commerce and direct taxes.
So, with that guiding philosophy, our young ambassador has carried her art to several countries as far removed as Dubai and Singapore, England and Canada. She has performed in the temples of America and the cultural centres of London. Her passionate approach to her subject is the same everywhere.
You can search for these two names in Youtube to see their versatality..
I wish our serial also shows such motivational things...đ
