The Wise Kings Of Kerala!

The Learned Kings of Kerala -& most of the Kings there were learned!- were lovers of Arts, Literature, Sanskrit – the language of a lot of secrets! – Martial Arts & a lot of other things which were positive from a human beings’ angle; they were very kind & morally of very high quality & standard. They always thought about their people & had been in constant touch with people that they understood the people better!

They always thought about the well being of their people that they considered their people their children! They amassed wealth to serve their people better, in sharp contrast to the present day politicians! Some of them even served the people as the servants of some Divine Lords as was the case with Marthanda Varma! They were selfless and sincere in their thought & actions. The love, selflessness, sincerity & respect were mutual! Even in the fight between Valluva Konathiri of Malabar & Samoothiri of Kozhikode one can see this selflessness as hundreds of Chavers sacrificed their lives for their country! The Kings kept the kingdoms of Kerala safe at any cost & ruled the present state of Kerala till the independence of India!

The 1 lakh crore + unearthed from the Sri Padmanabhaswamy temple @ Thiruvanathapuram is the ultimate proof of the wisdom, farsightedness, love towards their people, vision etc of those great rulers of Kerala who ruled the great country of MALAYALAM/KERALAM! One can well assume that at the time of the East India Company they stooped to conquer! When they understood that to fight the East India Company was futile, after a number of experiences, they must have used the trick of the lizards to throw their tails away to distract the enemies & escape with whatever that is important & precious! They stored their wealth – the wealth of their people – in such a way that not even the wind could understand where they kept the treasure safe, safely away from the constantly searching & scrutinizing eyes of the white men who plundered like the present day politicians!

Unicorns International

Unicorns International conducted 2 exclusive seminars @ Kochi & Thrissur on ‘The Youth & Education’, in this month! A number of papers were presented in the seminars on ‘The Youth & Education’, ‘Quality Education’, ‘Indian Education’, ‘Indian Culture’ etc. 

Unicorns International Chief Coordinator Mr. Johnson.V, delivering the main speech, said “Nurturing a human being as a human being is the main purpose of any quality education & the present day education/ education system falls well short of it!” 

The speakers at the seminars, including Ms. Varsha Johnson (Training Division Head, Unicorns International, Bangalore), were very vocal on the degradation of the education system & the dangerous impact this qualityless system of education we have here has on the up & coming generations! They said it’s high time that we start rebuilding our education system from the roots!

Both the seminars had very large audience, who were deeply and curiously interested in the present situation of education/education system. As the present generation gets sub-standard education from a very low age & keep growing in the same qualityless system of education, the topic ‘The Youth & Education’ was of utmost importance!

Suresh Gopi - The Superstar Less Appreciated!

Suresh Gopinathan Nair was born in Kollam to Gnanalekshmi and Gopinathan Pillai, on 25 June 1960! Suresh Gopi, as he is called quite often in the film industry, is an Indian film actor who works mainly in Malayalam cinema! He is famous for his roles in police dramas. He is noted for his leading roles as much as his character roles. He is also famous for his philanthropic efforts!

Suresh Gopi did his schooling at the Infant Jesus Anglo-Indian High School at Thangasseri. He graduated in English Literature from Fatima Mata National College in Kollam. He is married to Radhika, the granddaughter of Aranmula Ponnamma, the famous actress who passed away in 2011 after a very long stint in the Malayalam film industry, and has four children : Gokul, Bhagya, Bhavna, and Madhav. He is settled at Thiruvananthapuram, Kerala.

Suresh Gopi first appeared onscreen as a child in K. S. Sethumadhavan's Odeyil Ninnu, in 1965. He returned to acting in the 1986 Sathyan Anthikkad movie T.P. Balagopalan M.A. The films which made Suresh Gopi a bankable lead actor were Thalastanam (1992), Ekalavyan (1993), Mafia (1993) and Commissioner (1994)!

In Jayaraj's Kaliyattam (1997), an adaptation of Shakespeare's Othello, Suresh Gopi won the National Film Award for the Best Actor for playing the role of Kannan Perumalayan. This can be considered a main turning point in his career.

His movies after 2005 like Bharathchandran I.P.S., The Tiger, Chinthamani Kolacase, Nadiya Kollappetta Rathri,  Detective etc were commercial successes with the first one being a HUGE HIT!

He has not got the recognition he should have got effortlessly from the contemporary films in 2000s! Many of the movies, which were of good quality, flopped at the box office! It was the sheer negligence & baseless bias shown towards his movies from the side of the ordinary film goers that has created such a situation for him, despite the films being of good quality! The films include LANKA, TIME, SMART CITY, SAHASRAM etc! One can watch these movies on DVDs these days which will create an extremely fine image of Suresh Gopi in one's mind that should be appreciated for quality!
