I think I am off topic of our group's mission, however I wanted to share one of my comment regarding the above TV serial which was based on RK Narayanan's work.
The stories are very refreshing and when seen on TV, they used to make us long for such a place in our TN.
Is there any work in tamil similar to the above one which portrays childhood adventures of a tamil village boys these days? I know Vandu mama's stories (I wish Poonthalir was still publishing), any other if you know please share it.
