Have you ever heard of him? You will, when you come here. And he is superhero. Never ever tell anything wrong about him. He can do anything. He can romance with girls young enough to grand daughters, can catch a knife in his mouth and throw it back to the villain, can jump from 20 story building. And all that is true, stuff of legend.
And yes, all the auto drivers, another exceptional breed here, are clones of Rajnikant. Next rule is on that.
4. Rule - 4: -------------
Never take an auto. Taxi with a meter is always a safe bet.
Even with Taxis, better cross check with someone about the fare to your desired destination will cost. Otherwise you will pay 200 rupees to go from Chennai international terminal to the domestic terminal, distance of which is 200 meters!
5. Rule - 5: ------------
Do not mention in meeting where you are from.
It does not really bother them. There are two India, which has TN as a state and another for the Tamils who think India is inside TN.
Once a Tamil told me (and he a graduate engineer) that anything other than TN is "North" India. So Karnataka, Keral, AP all in Noth!! So repeating, never need to tell them anything on that. Just inform that you do not know Tamil.
