Ramany Vs Ramany
Swathi Family Entertainer presents here, the first ever Tamil comedy play in the "sitcom" format, directed by Naga of Marmadesam fame. The era of Min Bimbangal in Tamil Television (1990 - 2005) was a golden era of riveting, taut, intelligent, engaging and meaningful serials, all lush with life. The oeuvre of Min Bimbangal encompassed a broad range of genres, including sitcoms, soaps, homegrown thrillers and chat shows; every one of them being trend setters par excellence. The home being a Moral Instruction Class of his dominating mother, Mr. Ramany is a potential candidate for the couch. His dream was to flee to the US of A like a normal urban Indian, but his family had other plans; to shackle his ankle, as they say in Tamil, to Ms. Ramany. The influence of the wanna-be generations on one side and the overdose of Sai Baba bhajans on the other, she is equally, a candidate for the couch.
