i had emailed an invitation for the 17th award function too. could not reply. mugil had won the 17th arivukalanjiyam award too. the function was held at thakkar bapa vidyalaya, tnagar, chennai on november 10, 2011..the day of the full lunar eclipse..
as it will be repetitive one, i feel an interview by your reporter of mugil vanjinath at a mutually agreeable time and place will make for better reading that mere reportage.
he has since won the first prize in an interschool Thiruarutpa recitation competition held on dec 25, 2011. this was organised by Ramalnga ilakiya mandram, madambakkam, chennai – the prize distribution will be held on february 5, 2012 at Bharatiyar illam, triplicane, chennai 5. we shall send the invitation when we do get it.. pl contact my husband Shri T.Ramanathan on his mobile 9444046103 for more details as well as fixing an interview of mugil. we would appreciate the same.
we would also like to inform that he has been featured in an interview in tamil magazine ‘amudhasurabi’s january 2012 issue. pg 24.. please take a look.
a google or a yahoo search of J.R.Mugil Vanjinath will also highlight mugil’s consistent achievements.
