I dont think "Sen Kathir Maalai" mentioned in Mannan Magal is a fiction. I remember there was poem quoted by Sandilyan in Mannan Magal which says that Rajendra got it from Chera King after defeating him. I will check it and post the poem…

Well said, Satish. This much of hard restrictions and rude criticism is highly ridiculous. I think this is beyond the tolerence level. Attitude change is absolutely required. Even, I want to know if Mr.Easwaran is fresh out of school.
