Is Linen as Old as the Ramayana?

If you've seen Mundhanai Mudichu (1983), you know who K. Bhagyaraj is.
He was the rare filmmaker who could do it all -write, direct, act, compose and make it look effortless. A true one-man studio.

His films, the stories that made us laugh, think will always be remembered.
Aum Shanti 🌸

चोर मचाए शोर! रे एक रिश्तेदार का अंतिम संस्कार कोयंबटूर के Isha Crematorium में हुआ था। पूरी प्रक्रिया धर्म और परंपरा के अनुसार, अत्यंत व्यवस्थित, स्वच्छ और सम्मानजनक तरीके से संपन्न हुई। न कोई रिश्वत, न कोई छिपा हुआ शुल्क, न किसी प्रकार का शोषण। जो लोग आज इसका विरोध कर रहे हैं, ऐसा लगता है कि उन्हें डर है कि लोगों का शोषण करके चलने वाला उनका पुराना व्यवसाय अब नहीं चलेगा।

Last year when my uncle passed away , his last funeral rites took place in one of isha foundation’s crematorium services, in coimbatore. The space is systematic - clean - peaceful - ethically run. No bribe, No exploitation , hassle free . You are at peace . The Poor gets the same service free - no compromise on their dignity. Those who can afford we pay. Fair enough !!
