"Degrees and awards are never given to an institution....they are only given to the students who have learnt and graduated at the institution! "
every country has some system to rank universities, even India.
Sivaji the over-acting university could also be ranked :-)

Before branding Sivaji Sir as 'over-acting', one must understand the 'kaala gattam'[timezone] he was in and one who didn't have a chance to know what it was[I assume :-) is an youngster!] should not comment so lightly over such an INSTITUTION.

SK,
I understand that very well, yet its ok to be melodramatic when there's need but Sivaji carried it on even to everything he did.
i can never see a father crying like he did in viyatnam veedu.
have you ever seen a top-notch cop or a lawyer behave like him in real life?
one (we audience) can never connect ourselves to the characters Sivaji played, its far-fetched.
i don't have problem accepting he's a great actor but by no means an institution like Havard.
And don't worry i won't say kamal is the greatest, he's more real :-)

How are award panellists selected? What qualifications do Sumalatha, VeNNira aadai nirmala have to select the national awards? Has V.A.Nirmala done even a single role in her life worth awarding? Or has she at least proven herself as a worthwhile critic?

similar thoughts were raised when anil and raveena got their awards.

bb,
Same goes for Sumalatha.
I think the only qualification is that they have to be Alum katchi thondarhal.
In MGRs days, that was a critical requirement for winning the award too it seems.

I think the postings of people like zz here about IR are either based on some percieved misperceptions about his achievements and talents in music or such blind admiration for ARR. When one actually hears the quality, depth, width and variety of IR's compositions over time till date, a discerning rational individual will be able to understand why people used to the premium quality of IR's compositions may find it interesting that hyped up, low quality compositions are recognized.

Dude, get your facts right, Indian team is more hype than talents, go and check the statistics of Mahela Jayawardene with Rahul dravid & compare it, b4 posting sweeping statements like this!

Read here Vikram's interview

Raghu,
I'm not making sweeping statements about Dravid and Mahela. It is you who is making assumptions by saying 'check the stats'.
Well, here are the stats:
Tests:
Mahela: 63 Matches, 4633 runs, Highest Score 242, Ave. 49.28, 12 Hundreds, 21 fifties.
Rahul: 78 Matches, 6855 runs, Highest Score 270, Ave. 58.09, 17 Hundreds, 32 fifties.
Of Mahela's 12 hundreds, a disproportionate 10 came at home. Of Rahul's 17 only 6 came at home.
ODIs:
Mahela: 166 Matches, 4206 runs, Highst Score 128, Ave. 30.2, 6 Hundreds, 21 fifties.
Rahul: 237 Matches, 7459 runs, Highest Score 153, Ave. 39.2, 9 Hundreds, 52 fifties.
Now, I know you will come up with a cooked up explanation for this like how you explained VRs success with a Vijay movie not being released on time. So go ahead and humour me.
On the question of spinners, No, Harbajan is not the best. It is Kumble :-)
(It's Murali all the way, I was just kidding)

Stupid politicians have spoiled it for ever now.
