As a kid/teenager, my only source of information to learn malayalam was Manorama Publications' Balaram, a children's fortnightly and my granny. I still vividly remember how she used to teach me the basics of malayalam whenever I come to Kerala on vacations. My granny was also a great source of amazement for me as she used malaylam proverbs or the so called "pazham chollu" every now and then. These proverbs, though small in length and use, had deep insights! Though I can read/write Malayalam today, thx to Balarama and my granny, I used to miss her proverbs a lot. But not anymore!! Thanks to this Wikipedia link , forwarded to me by Vinay
RC me too eager to get one. But I suggest waiting till June-July till Tatas and others launch their DTH. Then we have a better choice for the content, as well as the price might come down further :-))
ReplyDeleteAs you know Ramesh, I've ben waiting for it for a long time... The cable operator here really sucks... Every Saturday & Sundary, for the most part, the cable will be cut and the channel clarity is too less...
ReplyDeleteFrustrated, I finally decided for Dish.
Yep, rightly said sriram! The clarity is too good and now only am enjoying my TV watching experience. I opted for the Dish Maxi offer of 5,000/- where you get around 120 channels, that too free for 1 year.... Will write a detailed review of it later
