Thank you both for taking us down memory lane. I ( and for that matter many of us) have seen the best of Madras - when Mount Road , Marina Beach, Edward Elliotts Road etc were litter-free zones , . Coming to the Program , It was lively , informative and casual - Mr Sriram , please keep such ones coming - God Bless you in your endeavours.🎉
What a lovely conversation 😊 I discovered Sriram sir only recently through Instagram. After consuming all his online content, I’ve just started reading his book. He has made me fall in love with my city 😍
I worked and lived in Madras (not Chennai, et!) in 1973-74, and the only place that was famous for biryani was Buhari's.I have seen biryani being prepared in Uzbekistan, Khazikistan and other Stans.
Sriram is a great personality. I have had the privilege to be with him for a year+ when we were doing our computer education. That was late 90s. His memory and wide knowledge about worldly aspects makes him a walking encyclopaedia. He loves history, music, and business aspects. Manages his time very well. Over the years looks like he spent more time pursuing his passion and love for the city. I wish him all the success in future.
I have played in those days in my lady's garden. In 1970s it was there. I have seen Moore market burnt down during MGR rule.Kannapar thidal was there. Cirus used to be staged there. Big boxing matches were held there.
Love Sir's stories. Even as a voracious reader, I didn't know about many of these things ( and others from his videos) and mostly nothing about the literature he refers to. Met him once in Mumbai too (after his talk). Hope more people will gain knowledge and spread it like him!!!
Lovely programme that took me down memory lane and brought back images of Madras of the 60s and 70s where I grew up. Sad indeed that the name was changed to Chennai - a word I refuse to utter. Wish I could meet you when I am in Madras again… Suresh / Copenhagen
THE MOUNT ROAD BUHARI WAS NAMED ARAM.BUHARI AND THE OTHER ONE WAS AT EGMORE .NEAR THE RAÌLWAY STN. THE FOOD VERY POPULAR A CHINESE DENTAL DOCTOR LIVED NEAR BY THIS HOTEL O N THE FIRST FLO
Thanks Sriram, sitting at home in the 21st century I was transported back to the 19th century . Selection of visuals and commentary were as usual too perfect .
I remember my father and uncle taking us (we were a joint family) to see the new lighthouse before it was inaugurated across from the All India Radio station on Beach Road. A lot of Madrasis (before they became Chennai Vaasis) were deeply upset because the old lighthouse at the High Court was taller. We could pick shells up on the beach back then before sewage from the Cooum killed off most of the flora and fauna in the sea. You would also read articles in The Hindu and the Indian Express when fishermen saw or caught a Whale Shark or a similar large fish. I am considerably younger than Mr Sriram, but I have great memories - like most people do, irrespective of their age - of Madras that is Chennai as Mr Muthiah called this lovely city. Thank you for a delightful conversation!
As a child, I have great memories of watching English movies. Movies of james bond, cowboy movies in gaeity, casino, alankar was a regular feature for Madras residents.

Wonderful experience...Thank you sir for taking us down memory lane..

Which book do you suggest for us Sriram sir 's book gallery sis?
Chennai and there is a book about Fort St.George
What is the kind of colour grading / filtering you do for this kind of look?
Beautiful tone for the video, nice vibes
I ordered the book from Amazon today
What is that sound 19:11 😂😂
Chennai filled up with 40,000 biriyani shops 😢😢😢
Wonderful conversation❤
Best❤
Elite way of ignoring north Chennai how could video about madars without #karuparnagaram
So you didn’t watch the full video 😂 or didn’t grasp anything about parktown
Great and interesting podcast for history of Chennai
Elites warning ⚠️
As a child, I have great memories of watching English movies. Movies of james bond, cowboy movies in gaeity, casino, alankar was a regular feature for Madras residents.
One striking feature was, 75% of the crowd coming to cinema were very well dressed.
Dear sir, how to get signed copies of all your books?
Thankyou Sir🎉
👏👏
