forget Tharoor and Tejpal...this is even more of a high-level soap

She's done everything wicked that a woman could do which would raise Indian hackles: have 2 kids out of wedlock, abandon them with 'rents in Assam when they were 3 and 4 yrs respectively, marry and divorce a man after having another kid, introduce her original kids as her siblings, remarry a high profile exec 15 years her senior and keep him in the dark on her past and then for evil, unknown reasons, kill her daughter....

sensational stuff but no southern angle so less interesting.
anyhow, there is no evidence that the mom did it, just an accusation by the driver and speculation aka "indian news." i don't believe this story cuz it's way too easy to blame the mom. she must've made a lot of enemies in the media.

if it's sensibly made, I am watching it most definitely.

watch hunterrr (2015). is a good movie. the guy plays a Marathi guy but is a handsome kannadiga (I think). Learned that some kinda Marathi and KN folks share their looks. Must be from the border.

Yes! Gulashan Devaiyya is a very good actor. I've seen him another film at South Asian Film Fest(forgot the name of the film) with Nirmat Kaur(the woman in Lunch Box).
