Punch Line: For the sake of Coffee
Filed under: Chennai FM

This morning had tuned to 104.8 Chennai Live. There were these two! a Doctor-The Rationalist & a Astrologist-The Believer. Both were at their peak of convincing-conversation about their theories. One denying & the other accepting the presence of Supernatural power!
Astro'st, drilling-in his explanation from, why its good to do anything on a full-moon; to, why do you get your pay on the 1st (that was quit a laugh). Doctor, digging-out his peace of mind that, everything has an scientific explanation.
In other words, it was one good laugh which made a good morning. And on the other side of the chattering radio! I'm swirling to think! What if the Dr goes to heaven & then! realises that the other guy was right? and what if the Astro'st did not find himself in heaven & nothing like what he thought! and then! he realises the other was right! & he wasted his time!
So the thing is, haven't they thought of sitting for a cup of coffee ;D
The coffee powder is soft, the flame is strong & what they would have drank was a blend of hot aromatic coffee! Punch line! Lets learn to be Humble!

My Chennai Connect

On my show every day I talk to at least one person who tells me, “I’ve been here in Chennai for like ever!”
And I’m jealous! I was born in Calcutta (it was called Calcutta then!), moved to Muscat, then Calcutta again, then Abu Dhabi , then Doha and finally reached Coimbatore!!!(Yes yes I know Typical story for a lot of ‘gulf kids’ ?)
I have never been in a single school for more than three years! Forget living in one place forever!
I am sure you are wondering what I am doing hosting a show like Chennai connection! Let me tell you about my Chennai connect!
Chennai’s been home for me for four years now. Chennai just didn’t happen to me, I took the effort and convinced my dad that I wanted to pursue my Masters in Chennai (my parents bought it ?)
I wanted to come to Madras because this place had music, theatre and a lot of life. I’ve never regretted my decision!
You know the thing about Chennai is that it makes everyone feel at home. The beaches, the congested roads, the breeze and the heat ……it just makes a perfect mix. This is a city that I have grown to love. Every evening there’s something new that’s happening in Chennai. And now I am on my way out to attend a talk and discussion!!
Tomorrow Chennai is turning 370!
Well…Happy birthday ‘Madrasapattanam’ !

Why you should vote for the Seven wonders of Chennai

Our beloved city turns 370 on August 22,2009. There are many reasons to celebrate.You can feast your eyes to lush greenery, no more hoardings to block them :).
Sprawling malls, movie theatres, coffee and burger joints in the city and you could mistake Chennai for another city if you are visiting it after a long time. Yet somehow the city maintains its old charm with buildings,landmarks and places filled with the old world charm and fond memories.
So go ahead and vote for the seven wonders and honour those places which you think deserve to be amongst the seven wonders of Chennai and be a proud participant of the vote for the seven wonders campaign brought to you by Chennai Live 104.8FM.

I was just listening to the radio and i heard a caller calling Soundharya as Soundy! Its a cool nickname and especially Sonali coming just after that and rubbing it in was fun to listen to...!
Personally i think its an apt nickname! BTW, you do a great show Soundy!

Here's an FM Station with a difference. Where you can talk your mind. Talk about anything under the sun. Talk until the sun goes down.
It's primarily an English station, but has no language barriers. Allows you to speak in a language that you are comfortable in.
There's a good selection of music too. Different genres, mostly english and some popular regional & bollywood hit numbers also.
"I add life to Chennai" allows you to talk about what you've done for your city - big or small. You can also blog about...just about anything, actually!
So what are you waiting for? Signup to speak up!
