From #SingaraChennai to #SigaramThodumChennai - we will transform!

We salute you! We love you! Thanks for standing with us - Chanceye illa !
***********************************************************
I was in tears today, when I heard this radio jingle. (Listen - don't miss it ... Vanakkam Chennai Vaazhavekkum Chennai - An audio tribute to Chennai by Rj Shaan)


The jingle captures the true #SpiritOfChennai and not the misery.  Was happy that India knows the #SpiritOfChennai and what #NammaMadras,  #SingaraChennai stands for even in misery. We are Chennai; we are proud of what we are and we are proud of you who stood with us.

I am happy to live in a time such as this, to see the benevolence of true India - An India which gives and cares. An India which shares what it has, going beyond region and religion. An India which is intolerant towards misery and human suffering. An India which has no caste, creed, race or discrimination in saving lives.

An India that sacrifices self and lifts the others!

I am proud of those stars who dirtied their hands in serving!
I am proud of those sex workers (I wish I can get a humane term) who sacrificed their meals to serve a meal !
I am proud of the young man who lost his life to rescue many!
I am proud of the many who went in searching for the missing!
I am proud of the prisoners who made those chapatti's !
I am proud of the men in uniform who rescued thousands !
I am proud of the old lady who could say I am fed, can you share it with others!
I am proud of the Chennai which said we will rise, as the flood rises!
I am proud of the Chennai which said we are not sinking, about to shine!

Floods will never drown Chennai! Chanceye illa !

We will rise!
Chennai is Rising! 

From #SingaraChennai to #SigaramThodumChennai - we will transform!

Chennai is grateful to the many who stood with it.
We owe our lives to you! Chennai remains open to you, as always!

Keep helping Chennai. #HelpChennai

Chennai is Rising though #NationalMedia forgot #ChennaiFloods

Chennai is Rising though #NationalMedia forgot #ChennaiFloods ***************************************************** #NationalMedia you don’t get sensational with relief work.  Do you? The nation really wants to know why do you exist. Just fyi - Chennai and TN - we are part of India. We feel proud to be part of India though you forgot the misery of thousands of flood victims across Tamil Nadu. You made stories out of the human misery as a breaking news. However, you fail to see the need for relief and rehab in ground zero (real - not the computer generated one ). Wish 'today' 'India' realizes how you galvanize us to things that are important for your well-wishers (advertisers) and movers and shakers (I saw a picture of one such man going by boat in his lungi with a smart phone and another had a miserable sendoff). Since you are failing as a "fourth estate", "fifth estate" we are making our voice heard in the wilderness. You have forgotten...

Chennai rain update 1 AM - 4th Dec: Might be less wet, hope flood waters from rivers don't create havoc!

Chennai @ 1am - 4 Dec: Chennai take some rest! You will have some shower. It will be less intense. None of the models / satellite images suggest heavy down pour for 4 Dec. That’s some good news. But wet days are ahead! So please prepare yourself. May not be a deluge but still wet. The catch is not the down  pour. But South Chennai and suburbs, how will you further manage the flood. Hope there is no more heavy rain in the lakes in Tambaram and Chengalpattu. Hope Pondicherry and Cuddalore survives through. Also, they get some good aid. Chennai admire your spirit. You didn’t grumble. You helped yourself. Build your stock. Stay safe. Help and support. 4 Dec, might be more peaceful, provided the floods don’t cause havoc. Rail and Airports remains closed. Few skeletal rail services operating from Chennai Beach station to other cities in TN and other states.
