[@muralikrishnan9407]

Suhasini amma you're very down to earth and great lady. God bless you.

[@hariniharini8164]

My two favourite top personalities are together seen is something beyond words and very amazing. Long live both.

[@jothisekaran7641]

Wonderful Mam. I am Dr Jothi Sekaran retired obstetrician. But love to move on to new things. I like both of you, hasinis acting and your singing mainly "thillanas". Didn't learn music but have a jealousy when hearing good Carnatic music and mainly the swarams. S, the biggest challenge in life is " being a dedicated mother". Hat's off to both of you.

[@VidhyaSivakumar831]

The music 🎶 bouquet 💐 offered brought tears. What a collection of songs. It’s also the combination of 2 of my favourite people in the show for sure ❤

[@premalatha955]

It's always a pleasure to see and hear suhasini mam with her warmth and grace, my inspiration

[@hemarekha7350]

Suhasini ,you are a Marvel. I am always in awe of your persona. We all love you..

[@rahulvasi2426]

She is first lady super star in South Indian cinema.

[@ashrithharith3474]

Then what is Vaijayanthi Mala and Sridevi ? They have made it way bigger. What about other talented stars like Urvashi, Sowkar Janaki, Saritha ?

[@ravichandran4589]

Very characteristic Hasini. Open. Candid. Clear. And enjoyable. Great to hear you both in conversation. Lots of trivia. Hasini. Bundle of talents.

Tamil personalities conversing in English in between having the flavour of Tamil, Telugu & Kanada! It's like mixed nuts in between a chocolate 🍫 I enjoyed watching from the beginning to the end.

[@Muralidrn]

Thanks a lot Suhasini ji for speaking a lot about sahasa simha Vishnu sir.

Very interesting and different to other sessions. Two vibrant personalities, hats off to you!!!

[@radhakrishnanr971]

This interview was made very interesting by both the brilliant ladies. The spontaneity of Ms Suhasini Manirathnam was beautifully driven by the interviewer through her timely pause, appropriate interjections and well prepared questions which brought out nice anecdotes, a feast to the fans. Simple living and high thinking personifies Ms Suhasini Manirathnam. Both Ms Sudha Raghunathan and Ms Suhasini Manirathnam have excelled in their chosen field and I don't think they have anything to prove to the world in their domain afresh. Yet one could not help wonder what is it that the Almighty has blessed them with so much that they are so grounded in their thinking process to express selfless desire to serve the community at large. A memorable weekend evening to the listeners. God bless.

[@kumar7359]

Suhasini's son is into theology. It's the 'scientific' study of asexual reproduction, alchemy of turning H2O into C2H5OH and zombie phenomenon which is about the techniques of coming back from the nether world. Amazing research which is very productive and helpful for Indian heathens to be converted into that cult. What a fantastic family.

[@sampatharuna6884]

Lol!

[@ruskinbond8761]

Mrs. Sudha Ragunathan, I like your interviews. I have a suggestion. You tend to speak very slowly at times, especially when you "read" the questions. I think you should do an extempore interview. Certainly no offense meant.

[@sundars2819]

I wish the same. Understand Sudhaji tries to read out the intro part and key questions to avoid missing out the important details. But its only distracting audiences and doesn't sound/look natural. Also would be great if she can avoid being busy at looking/preparing next questions while the interviewee sincerely answering the previous questions. Just a feed back to make it better 😊

[@indusundar1897]

yes Suhasini. you are correct. Women aren't getting whatever that want to be

[@rajamohan8464]

and what is that they want? my opinion is women want to be like men they want to do whatever men do. They forget that men and women are created for different purpose. Women has more power than men. The problem is they never realise that. One old song quite simply explain that. மகாராஜன் உலகை ஆளுவான், இந்த மகாராணி அவனை ஆளுவாள்.
