Podcasts about Tamil Nadu

This episode deconstructs the rise of Dravidian politics in Tamil Nadu and through it, the ascent of the Karunanidhi dynasty, which has monopolised the DMK. However, like all dynasties, the DMK too, is headed for a gradual but certain extinction. Chief Minister Stalin's repeated outbursts of invective against Sanatana Dharma shows desperation because as an ideology, Dravidianism stopped relevant more than two decades ago. The DMK's hold over political power after Karunanidhi's death is already shaky. With record levels of corruption and criminality, the party faces an impending humiliation in next year's elections. And once it's out of power, the Karunanidhi dynasty's days are truly numbered.

Starring Janhvi Kapoor as the titular Sundari and Sidharth Malhotra as the clueless “investor” Param, the movie combines poor writing, botched cultural representation, and inexplicable creative choices — like coconut tree confessions and Tamil Nadu boats showing up in Kerala. Amrita unpacks why the portrayal of Malayalis is not just lazy but offensively bad, pointing out how none of the cast seemed to have received even basic language coaching. Asim reads out savage Letterboxd reviews and admits the movie makes nobody look good — Punjabis, Malayalis, or otherwise. Yet both hosts find surprising moments of charm: Janhvi's sweetness in songs, her occasional Sridevi-esque mannerisms, and Sidharth's hotness (if not much else). They also debate the bigger picture: Bollywood's ongoing struggle with authenticity, the lack of genuine rom-coms, and why films like this end up being more “streaming filler” than theatrical event. Still, in a world of War 2 and endless action clones, Asim controversially admits he'd rather watch Param Sundari again than some of Bollywood's recent blockbusters. Funny, sharp, and slightly irreverent, this is Khandaan at its best — spending more time thinking about a film than its creators ever did. #ParamSundari #JanhviKapoor #SidharthMalhotra #BollywoodPodcast #BollywoodReview #BollywoodFans #KhandaanPodcast #HindiCinema #IndianCinema #BollywoodHotTake #BollywoodDiscussion Follow us on our socials:   / khandaanpodcast    / khandaanpodcast    / khandaanpodcast   Visit our merch store at REDBUBBLE: https://www.redbubble.com/people/khan...

He was born Venkataraman Iyer, but is mostly known by the name Bhagavan Sri Ramana Maharshi. He was born in Tiruchuli, Tamil Nadu, India. In 1895, an attraction to the sacred hill Arunachala and the 63 Nayanmars was aroused in him and in 1896, at the age of 16, he had a "death-experience" where he became aware of a "current" or "force" which he recognized as his true "I" or "Self".Music: Le Code - 'Ocean Shores'https://le-code.bandcamp.com/

In this episode of South Capital, the focus is on Tamil Nadu, India's manufacturing powerhouse and one of its most industrialized states. Known as the “Detroit of Asia” for its auto sector and the “Manchester of the South” for its textiles, Tamil Nadu plays a pivotal role in India’s GDP, exports, patents, and electronics manufacturing, including iPhone assembly. Host Dia Rekhi speaks with Tamil Nadu’s Industries Minister TRB Rajaa, who shares the state’s vision of becoming a $1 trillion economy, a goal built on decades of progress in education, manufacturing, IT, textiles, electronics, and renewable energy. He underscores the state’s strengths in women’s empowerment, robust infrastructure, and policy consistency, while highlighting new opportunities in semiconductors, technical textiles, shipbuilding, seafood processing, and offshore wind. Tamil Nadu also hosts India’s largest base of MSMEs, many of them women-led, which drive innovation and strengthen supply chains. Unlike states that compete domestically, Tamil Nadu positions itself against global economies, striving to stand out as a leader in industry, sustainability, and investment. With infrastructure upgrades, climate-resilient planning, and green energy targets set ahead of national goals, Tamil Nadu is firmly establishing itself as a global industrial hub.You can follow Dia Rekhi on social media: Linkedin & TwitterListen to more of South Capital: South Capital: Andhra Pradesh’s Comeback, South Capital: Kerala Rising, South Capital: Karnataka Grows Beyond Bengaluru & South Capital: Telangana’s Push for Mini-HyderabadsCheck out other interesting episodes from the host like: Tariffs trump trade, Health Hazards in your Grocery Bag, Trump vs Harvard: India Impact, Explaining India’s Record FDI Freefall and much more.

Trechos do livro “The Teachings of Ramana Maharshi in His Own Words”, de Ramana Maharshi.Ramana Maharshi (1879-1950), nascido Venkataraman Iyer, foi um dos mais venerados sábios da Índia. Nascido em Tiruchuli, Tamil Nadu, viveu uma infância comum até, aos 16 anos, experimentar uma profunda transformação espiritual ao confrontar a ideia de morte. Essa experiência o levou à realização do verdadeiro Eu e à renúncia de sua vida mundana. A partir disso ele se estabeleceu na montanha sagrada de Arunachala, onde passou o resto de sua vida em meditação e transmitindo ensinamentos, atraindo discípulos de todo o mundo.Ramana ensinava a prática do “Atma-Vichara”, “Self-enquiry” (auto-inquirição ou auto-investigação), baseada na pergunta “Quem sou eu?”. Ātmā Vicāra (विचार), é um termo sânscrito que significa o processo de investigar quem realmente somos, a investigação sobre a Natureza do Ser. Esta técnica é a que melhor exemplifica o Jñāna Yoga, o Yoga do conhecimento sobre Si Mesmo.Ramana destacava que a libertação espiritual surge da dissolução do ego e da realização da unidade com a Consciência universal. Seus ensinamentos enfatizavam a simplicidade, o silêncio e a experiência direta como caminhos para a Autorrealização, rejeitando práticas ritualísticas e dogmas religiosos.Seus ensinamentos transcendem fronteiras culturais e religiosas, inspirando buscadores espirituais em todo o mundo. Seu Ashram de Arunachala continua sendo um centro de aprendizado e prática, e suas ideias sobre introspecção e paz interior permanecem profundamente influentes.

On July 24, 2025, three members of the U.S. Sepak Takraw National Team gave a demonstration and talk at the University of Washington, thanks to support from the UW's Center for Southeast Asia & Its Diasporas. That same day Ron Krabill, Director of the UW Global Sport Lab, sat down with them as well as a software engineer based in Washington, D.C. who played Takraw in Tamil Nadu, India, and the Executive Director of the Cambodian-American Community Council of Washington, who also received a Master's in Southeast Asian Studies at the UW's Jackson School, to discuss how Takraw is a Southeast Asian indigenous game that in recent years has been spreading to other parts of Asia, Africa, and the U.S. In the U.S. it is an important activity that builds community and connects Southeast Asian migrants and refugees to their heritage in the region. The Global Sport Lab, based in the UW's Henry M. Jackson School, is supported by over a dozen UW departments and schools and was founded in 2024. The Lab uses the lens of sport to explore the big challenges of our global world, such as inequity, politics, injustice, human rights, popular culture, democracy and the economy.

Welcome to Top of the Morning by Mint.. I'm Nelson John and here are today's top stories.Monorail Chaos in Mumbai It was a rescue straight out of a disaster drill. Heavy rain stalled two Mumbai monorails on Tuesday—one carrying 200 passengers, another with 582—leaving hundreds trapped mid-air for hours. The worst was at Mysore Colony, where rescuers smashed windows and used cranes and scissor lifts to evacuate over 500 people from a train stuck on a curve. By 9:50 pm, all were safe. Another train between Wadala and Acharya Atre was towed back after 200 passengers were rescued. Officials blamed overcrowding: the monorail overshot its 104-tonne limit, hitting 109 tonnes, which snapped power contact and jammed brakes. Deputy CM Eknath Shinde called it “a major accident averted,” while CM Devendra Fadnavis ordered an inquiry. Meanwhile, local trains—the city's lifeline—were also hit, with 17 inches of water flooding tracks. For commuters, it was another monsoon reminder of how fragile Mumbai's transport really is. India is preparing a sweeping ban on online games played with money, potentially shaking a sector worth billions. A draft bill reviewed by Reuters says no one can “offer, aid or engage” in real-money gaming. That would put fantasy cricket giants Dream11 ($8B) and Mobile Premier League ($2.5B) in the firing line. The government argues these apps use “addictive algorithms” that fuel compulsive behaviour and financial ruin. Offenders could face up to three years in jail. With India's gaming market projected at $3.6B by 2029, the ban could send shockwaves through investors. Popular during IPL season, these apps allow entry for as little as 8 rupees with million-rupee prize pools, often endorsed by cricket stars. Now the government's message is blunt: play for fun, not for money. As India pulls back, China is stepping in. Analysts say Chinese refiners bought 15 cargoes of Russian Urals crude for October–November, each up to a million barrels. Until last month, India was Russia's biggest seaborne buyer, but shrinking discounts made state refiners pause—cutting imports by nearly 700,000 barrels/day. China, the world's top importer, usually buys ESPO crude from Russia's Far East, but cheaper Urals—priced $2–3 below Middle Eastern oil—sparked fresh demand. The shift could pressure Dubai crude, already softening. Yet, analysts caution Beijing won't absorb all volumes; Urals isn't a staple grade for its refineries. Another risk: U.S. sanctions. Donald Trump hinted penalties could hit buyers of Russian oil “in two or three weeks” if peace talks stall. For now, the balance tilts: India out, China in—with Washington watching. The Opposition's Vice-Presidential candidate, B. Sudershan Reddy, kept his message simple: “There's only one citizenship in this country.” He faces NDA nominee and Maharashtra governor CP Radhakrishnan in the September 9 vote. Both hail from the south—Radhakrishnan from Tamil Nadu, Reddy from Andhra Pradesh—adding a subtle regional undertone. But Reddy, a former Supreme Court judge and Goa's first Lokayukta, stressed unity: MPs, not the public, elect the Vice President, he reminded. Born in 1946, Reddy rose from Andhra Pradesh's High Court to Chief Justice of the Gauhati High Court, and in 2007, the Supreme Court, serving until 2011. His candidacy, announced at Congress chief Mallikarjun Kharge's residence, sets up a heated Parliament battle. In a move seen as breaking the ice, India scrapped customs duty and cess on cotton imports until September 30. The exemption, cutting the 11% levy to zero, directly benefits American exporters pushing for access amid escalating tariffs. Cotton is critical for India—employing 35 million people and driving 80% of textile exports. With domestic output slipping and prices tight, the duty cut also helps local mills ahead of the festive season. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Welcome to Top of the Morning by Mint.. I'm Nelson John and here are today's top stories. Putin's ‘Jelly Legs' Steal Spotlight Forget the Alaska handshake—what went viral after Trump and Putin's summit was the Russian president's shaky stance. Kremlin footage showed Putin's knee twitching and toes lifting as he chatted with Trump, sparking a flood of online theories. Ukrainians joked about hidden shoe lifts and exoskeletons, while others speculated about illness, dubbing it “jelly legs.” Some even claimed it wasn't Putin at all, but a body double—pointing to his missing “gunslinger gait,” a hallmark of his KGB training. The Kremlin has stayed silent, but the optics of wobbly knees may have upstaged Trump's claims of “big progress.” India-US Trade Talks Collapse A breakthrough in India-US trade is off the table for now. Washington has called off its negotiators' trip to New Delhi, originally planned for August 25–29. That leaves little hope of avoiding Trump's steep new tariffs—hiked to 50% on Indian goods—set to take effect August 27. Trump says the penalties are “punishment” for India's Russian oil purchases, which he argues bankroll Moscow's war. Five rounds of talks collapsed over two sticking points: opening India's farm and dairy markets, and cutting oil ties with Russia. India hit back, accusing the US and Europe of hypocrisy for still buying Russian goods. For now, tariffs are locked in, and businesses brace for impact. NDA Picks CP Radhakrishnan as VP Candidate India's ruling NDA has named Maharashtra Governor C. P. Radhakrishnan as its candidate for Vice-President. Union Minister Jitan Ram Manjhi made the announcement on August 17, with elections slated for September 9. A veteran BJP leader from Tamil Nadu, Radhakrishnan has served as governor in multiple states and is a two-time MP from Coimbatore. His nomination balances experience with regional representation, and the NDA's numbers got a boost as Shiv Sena pledged unconditional support. The move is seen as another carefully placed piece in India's political chessboard. Trump Teases ‘Big Progress' with Russia President Trump is fanning speculation after his three-hour Alaska summit with Vladimir Putin—the first time Putin has set foot on Western soil since 2022. On Truth Social, Trump posted in all caps: “BIG PROGRESS ON RUSSIA. STAY TUNED!” His envoy later hinted at “game-changing” security guarantees for Ukraine, though reports suggest a controversial land-for-peace deal could be on the table. Alarmed, European leaders will join Zelensky in Washington for urgent talks with Trump. Macron, Starmer, Meloni, Merz, and Ursula von der Leyen are flying in, hoping to stiffen Ukraine's position as Trump presses for a quick peace. The stage is set for a high-stakes diplomatic showdown. Apple's ₹1,000-Crore Bengaluru Bet Apple has made a blockbuster real estate move in Bengaluru—inking a 10-year lease worth over ₹1,000 crore for nearly 2.7 lakh sq ft in Embassy Zenith, a new tower built on the old Le Meridien site. The rent—₹235 per sq ft per month—sets a city record, with Apple shelling out ₹6.3 crore every month for nine floors, plus parking for 362 cars. The lease includes a 4.5% annual hike and an option to expand further. Propstack's Raja Seetharaman calls it a “huge vote of confidence” in India, aligning Apple's office expansion with its booming iPhone manufacturing push. Together, it cements India's role at the center of Apple's global supply chain. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

The teaser of the upcoming Tamil movie Bad Girl released last year sparked a wave of outrage across Tamil Nadu. The Madurai High Court recently passed an order severely reprimanding the movie and its makers calling Bad Girl a borderline child pornography. In this episode, we trace the phenomenon that led to the emergence of such perverted movies in Tamil Nadu and the overall moral degeneration of Tamil cinema. Bad Girl is especially disturbing because its makers specifically target a school-going Brahmin girl depicting her as a victim of an alleged Brahmin patriarchy, which forbids her from having multiple sex partners, smoking and alcoholism.

Haashiraamaa Senju, Itachi Uchiha and our new series regular Kakashi Hatake discuss about the movies they grew up with in Tamilnadu.

The speed with which cinema caught the public's imagination is remarkable. The first film screenings took place in the 1890s and just two decades later, in the US alone there were thousands of nickelodeons and other spaces where you could watch a movie. Luxurious picture palaces followed soon after and not just in the West: some of India's Art Deco cinemas are real feasts for the eyes. But the arrival of TV fundamentally changed our relationship with movie theatres and they have struggled to remain central to our film culture ever since.Iszi Lawrence explores the 120-year development of movie theatres with film historian Professor Ross Melnick, Professor of Cinema Studies Daniela Treveri Gennari, cinematographer Hemant Chaturvedi who is documenting India's historic cinema buildings, Chinese cinema researcher Professor Jie Li and World Service listeners.(Photo: Kannappa Cinema, Padappai, Tamil Nadu. 2024.

iPhone 17 components have started arriving at Foxconn's plant in Tamil Nadu. It signals Apple's quiet but serious shift toward next-gen production in India, potentially starting as early as August. But as India is stepping into a more central role in Apple's global supply chain, Foxconn is being forced to pull hundreds of Chinese engineers out of India. These are people who helped set up and run these complex manufacturing lines. The move has raised eyebrows with many interpreting it as Beijing's geopolitical pushback against Apple's China-plus-one strategy.Here's the twist: what if this squeeze isn't a setback, but a necessary shock? Could China's pressure may actually accelerate India's path to manufacturing independence?Tune in.Daybreak is produced from the newsroom of The Ken, India's first subscriber-only business news platform.

En el año 2001, en Tamil Nadu, India, un hombre llamado Shivappa notó que una vía del tren estaba rota tras un deslizamiento de tierra. Al ver que un tren se acercaba a gran velocidad, corrió hacia las vías, ondeando su camisa. Cuando el maquinista no reaccionó, se arrodilló directamente sobre los rieles. El tren se detuvo a pocos metros. Posteriormente, 2,000 pasajeros fueron evacuados y su valentía fue reconocida nacionalmente. Este acto heroico ilustra el corazón de intercesión que colocarse entre el peligro y quienes aún no ven el riesgo. Así hizo Moisés al interceder por el pueblo. Así oró Esteban mientras era apedreado, y así actuó el Señor Jesús, poniéndose entre nuestra culpa y el juicio. Interceder no es solo orar, es comprometerse, exponerse y clamar cuando otros no pueden. Es estar dispuesto a detener el “tren” del dolor, la destrucción o el pecado por amor a otro. Entonces ¿Estás intercediendo por alguien hoy? ¿Te estás poniendo en la brecha? La Biblia dice en Ezequiel 22:30: “Y busqué entre ellos hombre que hiciese vallado y que se pusiese en la brecha delante de mí... y no lo hallé” (RV1960).

What if one of the world's most respected tech companies, selling in over 180 countries, with 25 offices across the globe, wasn't built in Silicon Valley or Bangalore, but from a small village in Tamil Nadu called Tenkasi? In this episode of Raw Talks with VK, we sit down with Mr. Raju Vegesna, the Chief Evangelist at Zoho Corporation, for a deeply honest, philosophical, and powerful conversation in Telugu. This is not just a startup success story; it's a blueprint for building with integrity, vision, and an unshakable connection to roots.Raju takes us through his personal journey and his connection with CBN (Chandrababu Naidu), including the viral tweet after Chandra Babu Naidu's arrest. He shares how he first met Sridhar Vembu, Zoho's founder, and how that meeting shaped a decades-long partnership based on values, simplicity, and service to the country. He talks about how Zoho made the bold decision to stay bootstrapped, carry zero debt, and invest in long-term thinking instead of chasing short-term valuations. We discuss how Zoho, unlike many other companies, built its offices in rural areas like Renigunta, with the belief that villages don't need to be emptied to build cities, and that innovation doesn't have a pin code.From losing 400 clients to rejecting an acquisition offer from Salesforce, Raju walks us through the philosophy that helped Zoho survive and thrive. He breaks down the purpose behind Zoho Schools, where dropouts and underprivileged youth like, security guard Abdul Alif, are trained to become full-fledged software engineers. He explains why they don't provide degrees, only skills, and why many graduates today ask if they too can join this alternative education model.We dive into how culture acts like the "character of a company," why they avoid traditional corporate structure, and how they've managed to operate without ever doing layoffs. Raju opens up about how design, interior choices, and even sofa arrangements affect team dynamics and why they design everything in-house to nurture culture. He also touches on Zoho's product journey from launching Zoho Writer before Google Docs, to making Zoho Mail one of the top 3 email platforms globally, to building a CRM that now sees large-scale migrations from other platforms.This conversation also takes a wider lens on India's startup ecosystem. Raju shares his views on entrepreneurship and patriotism, India's engineering graduate crisis, and the philosophical mindset shift we need to stop waiting for Western validation. We discuss how AI and robotics are not just tech trends but tools for digital and national sovereignty, and how real disruption is only beginning. He compares the state of Tier 1 Indian cities with Tier 3 cities in the U.S., and asks the question: can we build from here and still lead the world?With memorable stories like the early Ameerpet startup days, co-founder disagreements, and incidents where clients once rejected them harshly, this episode offers a full-spectrum view of the mindset and mission behind one of India's most inspiring companies. For aspiring entrepreneurs, tech dreamers, and anyone who believes in building with purpose, this episode isn't just a conversation, it's a call to action.If you've ever wondered whether it's possible to build a global company out of a village, this might be for you. Whether you're dreaming of staying bootstrapped, creating real impact, or building from Bharat, this story is proof that it can be done.

Since the earliest encounters between tantric traditions and Western scholars of religion, tantra has posed a challenge. The representation of tantra, whether in Bengal, Tamil Nadu, Tibet, or Japan, has tended to emphasize the antinomian, decadent aspects, which, as attention-grabbing as they were for audiences in the West, created a one-dimensional understanding, and hampered the academic study of the field for more than a century. Additionally, the Western perspective on religion has been dominated by doctrinal studies. As a result, sectarian boundaries between different tantric traditions are frequently replicated in the scholarship, and research tends to be sequestered according to different schools of South Asian, Central Asian, Southeast Asian, and East Asian tantric traditions.The Oxford Handbook of Tantric Studies (Oxford UP, 2024) is intended to overcome these obstacles, facilitating collaboration between scholars working on different forms of tantra. The Introduction provides an overview of major issues confronting the field today, including debates regarding the definition and category of "tantra" historical origins, recent developments in gender studies and tantra, ethnography and "lived tantra" and cognitive approaches to tantra. Using a topical framework, the opening section explores the concept of action, one of the most prominent features of tantra, which includes performing rituals, practicing meditation, chanting, embarking on a pilgrimage, or re-enacting moments from a sacred text. From there, the sections cover broad topics such as transformation, gender and embodiment, "extraordinary" beings (such as deities and saints), art and visual expressions, language and literature, social organizations, and the history and historiography of tantra. With co-editors in chief who specialize in the Hindu and Buddhist perspectives, a global pool of contributors, and over 40 chapters, the Handbook aims to provide the definitive reference work in this dynamic field.

"Act according to your conscience"Mr C V Sankar, a 1982-batch IAS officer, served the nation for 34 years in various distinguished roles in the Government of Tamil Nadu, including as Secretary, Principal Secretary, and Additional Chief Secretary in departments such as Industries, Environment and Forests, Rural Development and Panchayat Raj, and Municipal Administration and Water Supply, among others. He also served as the District Collector of Coimbatore.He is widely recognised for his outstanding service in coordinating the massive Tsunami Rescue and Relief Programme in 2004, managing the USD 2 billion worth Rehabilitation and Reconstruction Projects funded by the World Bank, UNDP, and other international agencies, and conducting Tamil Nadu's first Global Investors Meet. These initiatives reflect not only his sharp administrative acumen but also his commitment to the timeless values of Truth and Righteousness.After his first darshan of Bhagawan in the late 1980s, Swami's words became the guiding compass of his life. In this Satsang, he shares how Bhagawan's teachings inspired and directed his every action in his decades of service to the people of Tamil Nadu.

These profound practice teachings on freeing the mind from being ruled by thought, as taught by Sri Ramana, were taken from various sources/texts.Ramana Maharshi ( 1879 -1950) was an Indian sage and jivanmukta (liberated being). He was born Venkataraman Iyer, but is mostly known by the name Bhagavan Sri Ramana Maharshi. He was born in Tiruchuli, Tamil Nadu, India. In 1895, an attraction to the sacred hill Arunachala and the 63 Nayanmars was aroused in him and in 1896, at the age of 16, he had a "death-experience" where he became aware of a "current" or "force" which he recognized as his true "I" or "Self".

This is the Catch Up on 3 Things by The Indian Express and I am Ichha SharmaToday is 28th of May and here are today's headlines.The Congress has renewed its call for President's Rule in Manipur after fresh violence in Jiribam and the resignation of BJP MLA Ashab Uddin. Party spokesperson Supriya Shrinate alleged that the N. Biren Singh-led government had failed to maintain law and order, calling the administration “invisible.” The opposition said the constitutional machinery had collapsed, with thousands still displaced since the 2023 ethnic clashes. The BJP, meanwhile, has defended its state government's handling of the situation.And from Manipur, we turn to Assam, where a legal battle is unfolding over alleged police encounters. The Supreme Court has stayed proceedings initiated by the Assam Human Rights Commission into 183 alleged fake police encounters that occurred between May 2021 and June 2022. A petition filed by a senior advocate claimed the panel had no jurisdiction, as many of the cases were already pending before courts.
