Classical overdose!For several months we youngsters have been visiting Indian clubs Indian clubs are a category of exercise equipment popular in the late 19th and early 20th century in Europe, the British Commonwealth and the United States. They comprise bowling-pin shaped wooden "clubs" of varying sizes and weights, which are swung in certain patterns as part of and associations belonging mainly to those from Kerala Kerala (kĕr`ələ), state (2001 provisional pop. 31,838,619), 15,003 sq mi (38,858 sq km), SW India, on the Arabian Sea. Thiruvananthapuram is the capital. and are disgusted with the quality of programmes, as there is an overdose overdose /over·dose/ (o´ver-dos?) 1. to administer an excessive dose. 2. an excessive dose. o·ver·dose n.

There are several adults too who do not wish to watch such boring programmes on a Thursday Thursday: see week. or Friday Friday: see Sabbath; week. Friday young Indian rescued by Crusoe and kept as servant and companion. [Br. Lit.: Robinson Crusoe] See : Servant evening. Organisers who have directly flown from Kerala have no idea what is happening in other parts of India. Neither do they know what true entertainment is nor are they interested in finding out what the present generation needs. We have nothing against these slow, boring classical programmes but put a limit to it. Let them be short and sweet instead of stretching for several hours putting the audience to sleep. It is only in Kerala and on Kerala TV channels and radio that we get an overdose of classical stuff. No other state does this.

Even in Malayalam films, they select heroines that look like housemaids. Good looking actresses are not given a chance. Married ladies walk the ramp for Malayali beauty contests with a lamp in their hand. Disgusting! We have now decided to attend all such programmes armed with tomatoes and eggs and throw them at the performers if they are boring! Youngsters and some modern adults in Kerala have started watching only Tamil and Hindi films. They even dance to songs from Hindi movies during shows. So this threat is for young performers too, take it seriously. Do short and sweet dances or get ready for eggs and tomatoes!
