BF

Okay, im not going to talk about the obvious. Alright, im not even going to talk about Boy Friend(BF), but according to Suryah (director of movies like New, Kushi) BF means Best Friend, nothing else. Alright im still not going to talk about the new movie by Suryah. But as you all know the name of the movie is in English and as you also know Tamil Nadu's son, PMK's thalaivar, takes it personal when any tamil movie is released with an English Title. And along with other son's of the soil, to please their sons, have warned creators against such names and threatened them with dire consequences.

But Amma (sometimes she is Sensible), who is presently the saviour of Kollywood, has severely reprimanded the sons against such activities. She also have said that nobody has any right to do any thing like that. And also have said as long as the names are not obscene (which again is a debatable topic), the creators have the liberty to keep any name of their choice. She also goes on to suggest them, to clean their house first, then probably they can clean others.

First cleansing act she has suggested is to change the sanskrit name of the son to something in Pure Tamil. Then change Kalaignar's son's English name to something in Pure Tamil and after that change the name of their network to something in Tamil and some more suggestions. What say People, nice suggestions right ?

What does 'Oorukku' mean? Sorry - moved to north India and there aren't many tamilians out here to help me decipher. Heck, even Google's translation tool doesn't help....don't they know they are missing out atleast 300 languages spoken in India.

I guess 'upadesam' means lecturing. Right?

Yes upadesam means lecturing
Oorukku means any place (village, town, city etc etc)
So "oorukku upadesam" - lecturing the town

Suryah & Ramadoss are out there to get some cheap publicity out of it. BF = Best friend (Oh Boy , Give him a Nobel Prize for the new invention) and the less said about the " Tamil Sons" the better.
