I don't blame you! Many in Tamilnadu do not know who Munshi Premchand was either! Hope you at least knaow who Subramanya Bharathi was. You surely know Nrendra Modi and Jayalalithaa and Rabri!

Banerji da, News of Sujatha's passing away came up at 15:30 and within minutes there were over 100 condolence messages. Shows his popularity. It is very unfortunate that such a brilliant writer is unknown outside the Tamil world. The kind of writing he gave the tamil literary world is something phenomenal and the effect his writings and dialogues had on the Tamils is to be seen to be beleived. Sure the whle Tamil moviedom will pay their true respects. (Imagine if someone aske Gulzar -Who?).
