Dear ComiRades,
Welcome back to TCU. In this post, we are going to read about a celebrity being our ComiRade. Most of the South Indians would have known Mr Ponvannan, Brilliant Actor / Director. What Many of us may not know is that he is a Compulsive Reader (Both Hard & soft). He has a varied set of Book collection which match with the best of the avaricious readers. Yours Trudy's DVD collection Shelf is modelled on Mr Ponvannan's Library.

There was this article on this week’s issue of Kungumam Magazine about various celebrities and their Hobbies. Amongst which, we had this:

Post Script: I can proudly say that the book that Mr Ponvannan is holding is given by Yours Truly.

Good to know that there are people like us in the Celebrities list too. :)
ReplyDeleteWe need them to speak openly about Comix/Graphic Novels to grow them further among the youth. It's a great way of learning.
Viswa Ji,
ReplyDeleteWhy don't you get Mr Ponvannan to write a celebrity post on this blog? Wouldn't that be nice?
Think about it.
Thanks & Regards,

Chezhi: Thanks for the suggestion. I Have the same idea. Will Post some of the celebrity Postings very soon.
ReplyDeleteViswa: Has ponvannan directed any movie? i doubt. Kindly clarify.
ReplyDeleteI Once traveled with my friend in chennai in a auto. i was speaking to my friend about the availability of Lion comics old issues in Book shops. The auto driver said that Mr Ponvannan used to buy comics regularly.
This was about 5-6 years back.
