The responses on this article makes me to respond towards some of it with my comments.
1. Some of the respindents here are to stil understand that this is not just a blog where they can write any thing, this magazine is read by thousands of Malayalees across the world and keep it decent. I strongly felt bad about Mr. Naveen from Bangalore's comments which hurt me and my family as readers of this magazine. Naveen can really critize and share his views about the article and the program. If some one wants decides write badly, they can write it to the personal email of the writer or the editor. As Mr. Unni from Singapore said we Malayalees have to keep our dignity and decency of this site
2. Don't take it as a religious attitude. This is the problem in our country, actually created by our politicians. If you try to think that this is religious affinity towards any singer, it will create chaos across our journalism and literature. Just names doesn't carry any religion. After all we don't know the religion of the writer. As Binu and Pathmaja were mentioning,we should not at any point have such a thought of religious bias while reading it.
3. Lastly after saying this much, I think I should comment on the article. I felt the writer is partial towards the singer. But I think he takes him who was no.1 as an example to discuss the partiality in promoting the undeserved candidates and talking about the ethics of commercialism or the impact of globalization in art and literature.
