Thanks Sir. I have been working in LIC for more than 35 years. I am a second generation LIC employee. Happy to note that our organization is glorified by you.
Sir thanks for giving such a wonderful history between lic and sir chidambaram chatiar i was a School student of m ct m mudiah cheitiar school purasaiwalkkam in the year of 1992 to 96 i use to travel from kilkattalai to purasaiwakkam that time i use to caught but at 6.30 am and reach in 8.15 am and in evening i caught 27D bus to lic stop and eat a best veg puff at Lic stop that time i dont know i am studying in such a big school now i really wow abt muttaiah ....
My sincere thanks to Thiru M. CT. Chidambaram chettiar the proud founder of our LIC in India. But unfortunately he was demised in a flight crash is a very sad message for me since he is one of a great person from my Nagarathar community. Since he was a owner of a Life insurance cpany his own life have been challenged by God, If at all it has not happened we would have seen his Himalayan peak development in some oter sectors like Indian over seas Bank. Thanks for giving this message to allpublics.
In the early years LIC building was a star tourist attraction. As a student of Government Arts College (now Qaide Millat Women's college), I used to go there. We experienced the novelty of ultra modern show rooms, fragrant air conditioning, and a lift ride to the terrace for 10 paise! Indira Gandhi visited LIC bldg, went to the terrace, complemented Madras as the greenest city. She said Keep it that way. But the very next year ,the city cut down a centuries old tree in front of Quality Restaurant opposite LIC.
In 1970 to 1972 I used to go to G.K.Vale&Co.to give film roll washing and printing.I used to feel proud of LIC building.Then I migrated to Bombay in 1972 in search of employment.OMG! My opinion was shattered by viewing tall buildings like SBI , Nirmal , Air India ,etc in Nariman Point.As you said LIC building has its historical importance.Thanks for your information.
Lakshmana iyer sir.. do you know marganda iyer who was also in doing the same business & after he was working for orwo films in those days? He the one who introduced late actor jayashankar to cine director Joseph thaliath? Pl reply me sir.. I know margandae iyer very much..
This Iconic building was constructed by M CT M Chidambaram Chettiar. But he passed away in Air crash in Singapore, may be 1954 or 55 before this building was finished. This was told my father. In fact when I was studying in New College, I have seen that inferno in 1975. It was Friday and Saturday. You have nicely enlightened about the LIC Building with facts and figures. Please speak on the ruining or crumbling Bharath Insurance's Indo Saracenic edifice in Mount Road.
sir I waved at you at the music academy while you were inside your car. glad you smiled and waved at me back. love u videos and great fan of history of Chennai Madras madrasapattinam
செட்டியார் சமூகத்தினர் வணிகம், ஆன்மீகம், சேவை எதிலும் சளைத்தவர்களல்லர். பணம் சம்பாதிப்பது மட்டுமொன்றை மட்டுமே குறியாக வைத்திருப்பவர்களென்று அவர்களைப்பற்றி தவறான கருத்து இருப்பது மிக வருத்தத்திற்குரியது!
Sir I'm your follower.... Sir I'm a Chennai citizen, lived in royapuram, when I was a kid ma grandma use to say me that when she was young there was a tram in Chennai, at that time I'm not that much of interested to get that information about that...after I have seen your episodes I am eager to Google what happened to that tram but i never got that information.. Could you please tell me that history what happened to that tram
நான் படித்தது புரசைவாக்கம் M .Ct.M.Chidambaram chettiar பள்ளியில் 1 முதல் 5 ஆம் வகுப்பு வரை.6 முதல் 11ஆம் வகுப்பு வரை படித்து M Ct.M High school புரசைவாக்கம்.அன்று அவை மிகச் சிறந்த பள்ளிகளாக சென்னையில் இருந்தது.சிதம்பரம் அல்லது முத்தையா செட்டியாரின் இல்லம் பள்ளிக்கு எதிராக தர்மப்ரகாஷ் கட்டிடத்திற்கு அருகில் இருந்தது.இன்றும் பள்ளிகள் இருக்கிறது.
Subsequently, MctM constructed IOB building... It had rooms for United India and Travancore Rayons also at that time. . Iob was also nationalised in 1969
Sir, your videos are very informative and entertaining. I appreciate the great deal of reading and research put behind in these videos. Keep up the good work. Regards from Sri Lanka 🇱🇰
LIC பில்டிங் எரியும்போது எனக்கு 12 வயசு இருக்கும் அப்போது நாங்க சென்னை புதுப்பேட்டையில் இருந்தோம். தீப்பற்றிய சமயம் மேல்மாடியில் எரிந்து கருகிய காகிதங்கள் இரண்டு கி.மீ. தூரத்தில் உள்ள எங்கள் வீட்டு மாடியில் வந்து விழுந்து போகிபோல் காட்சியளித்தது இன்னும் நினைவில் இருக்கிறது. தங்கள் தகவலுக்கு நன்றி சார்.
Interestingly it's construction was carried out by Coromandel engineering ( AMM Murugappa group), Indian overseas Bank belonging to MCTM family, Indian Bank belonging to Chettinad Rajas family etc was Nationalised by Smt. Indira Gandhi govt. Sir can you do a video on Madras Airport, Air India etc

I believe the honor for the city’s first 100-feet high rise building goes to Agurchand Mansion which is near Spencer. Hopefully it will continue to be preserved as a heritage building for the enjoyment of posterity !
Sir The neighbour SBI building is also an heritage building. GP road x mount road junction had bharath insurance building. City buses towards tambaram will stop near bharath and mofussil / long distance buses before LIC. Auctioneers Murray's had their business behind LIC. J.Krishnamohan
இந்த LIC கட்டிடத்தை கட்டிய கட்டுமான ஒப்பந்ததாரர்கள் முருகப்பா குழுமத்தின் சோழமண்டலம் Constructions எனப்படுகிறது. இது உண்மையா? தெரிந்தவர்கள் பதில் அளிக்கலாம்.
