(I have been intending to write about this for quite some time now, but yesterday’s episode proved the catalyst.)
Over the past few weeks, I have become a huge fan of Vijay TV’s Neeya Naana. The talk show pits two groups of people against each other to discuss and argue about inane, inconclusive topics like “Are people happy before marriage or after?” or “Is romance in public places correct?” or “Should people believe in astrology?” Whereas, no conclusion is reached during the hour-long debate, it is fun to see people having a go at each other.
The strongest point of the show is the moderator, Gopinath. Seemingly well aware of the various shortcomings of the talk show, he treads the golden mean very well, ever alert to simmering tensions and quick to shifting perspectives when he senses trouble or repetition. Vijay TV, which has a long history of producing winners, has once again pulled it off, making this show, which airs on Sundays at 9 PM, one to wait a whole week for. Indeed one is led to think when was it last that one eagerly awaited a programme on television. Probably as far back to the days of “OLiyum Oliyum” on Doordarshan, decades ago. OLiyum Oliyum was a defining programme on Tamil television. It aired on Friday evenings, and the whole family looked forward to it, as if it were an event instead of a TV programme.
So despite the evident stupidity of the arguments expressed (of course, if you hand the microphone to an excitable Tamilian, and seat a couple of good-looking (?) girls in front of him, he will forget that he is on camera, and become a rare poet-philosopher-social scientist mixture), the show is worth watching at least for the fun portion. What a way to round off otherwise boring weekends!

Indeed a enjoyable show… i like it quite a bit.. tough i see recorded versions online….
Neeya Naana is a very good program in Vijay TV. I dont miss it any week.
Dear Sir,
I have been watching “Neeya Naana” since last year. It is a programme to be seen by everyone. Yesterday (04/01/2009) also I watched it. The topic was whether we have to believe the astrology or not. In that programme Mr. Shelvi, one of the two Cheif Guests, spoke very well. Especially the way he argued with the lady participant, by mentioning that she is a divorcee, was fantastic. I need a favour from you. Can you give me the Contact No. and Address of Mr. Shelvi. The below are my contact details.
1) Contact No. is 9444801724, 22651942
2) subramaniamravi_1971@yahoo.com
3) ravisubramaniam_1971@rediffmail.com
Please do the needful.
Regards,
(S.RAVI).

Shelvi Astrologer Contact detail please
I had the oppurtunity to see his articles in kumudam bhakti and also the program in vijay tv.
But i dont know why he is hiding and not showing his identity. May be because he is too busy unlike astrologers of Vikatan Group – Chandrasekara Bharathy, Veda Gopalan, Miranda Joseph or Kumudam Jothidam which give free advises or KC Iyer of Dailythanthi.
Please have the contact detail of Mr.Shelvi.
thanks

HELLO SIR,
There are no words to describe how most of us feel about the sufferings of the srilakan tamils.As a INDIAN and TAMILIAN we should responsible for the srilakan tamils who are in India for the moment by giving them a shoulder to lean on, accept them as our brothers and sisters.
IT would be great if a show would be conducted to bring awareness among our people in helping and treating the sirlakan tamils who are currently residing in India as one of us.also we need to keep in mind about a proverb ” vandhari vzlavaikum tamilnadu”
I would like to give a helping hand of 100 u.s dollars to a family or a studend for his/her education needs until they need support. please e-mail me of were to send the money.
BE PROUD TO B A INDIAN
with concern and love mohana

Hi Gopinath,
Wish if you can take a topic on population control with a list of poor people having more than 2 kids vs educated people having one.
It is required to control india’s population to the level that goverment can provide support to the families and individuals who are suffereing.
I wish all residents of the world should leave happily and we can eradicate poverty.
Regards,
Sankar
I mean live happily !!!
No, actually, “leave happily” is the mot juste!
