I hate vijay tv, they will do anything to get the ratings up. They don't care about the society.

Message to vijay tv if you guys really care about our tamil society then dont fell on cinema stars. First remove lakshmi from kathai ala nijam and put someone who has really soend their whole life on social work and also remove khusboo from tamilmagan( I guess this is the right name of the show). We dont want feminist.
