This article is absolutely ridiculous and paints a picture about chennai which is far from truth.
The author seems to mock our culture and tradition and the people still following it. There are hundreds of colleges, institutions, offices and companies in Chennai and also growing at a rapid pace which negates the authors contention that people of opposite sex not talking to each other is the dictum in chennai.
The author also very unfairly has ridiculed Bhartnatyam. I request rediff not to publish articles which are unfair , biased and not based on truth and facts.
