Jest junior things
It has been a while since we disconnected cable tv at home relying wholely and solely on internet for tv subscription and viewing. And we didnt even realize that we have moved away from regular TV channels like Sun or Vijay till the time this incident happened, for mom, who regularly watches only Vijay, now has switched over to Hotstar app and doesn't even switch on TV!! It's all available within her palm at the touch of a screen. I am the only person who watches TV that too not on a regular basis, but to watch any sports or news. One day while browsing over the channel list i saw Anniyan movie playing on K TV and looking at references to Garuda Puranam, Junior was curious about the movie and said let that channel play. When the owner of the remote himself has decided, that wish obviously becomes the command right! After a while he came to me complaining that the TV was broke and something is wrong. I could hear that something was playing and was wondering whether the picture was having some disturbance and went to check. It was working fine and about audio/video were playing without any issue. I asked him "Ennachu buffer aagutha..suthikitay irukka?" He said "ila..edho repair aagiruku"
"enna repair nalla claritya thana iruku"
"last 15 minutesa movieye varala"
"???apdina?"
"intha ad ithoda 4 times play aadichu..movieye varala..something is stuck"
Then only it struck me that he is watching a TV channel after so long and possibly for the first time!!! K TV SUN TV are well known for showing movies in bits amidst their advertisement barrage and junior was confused why it was playing so many ads and that too without skip ad!! When "Indian" movie was first time telecasted in Raj tv, they played the 3 hour movie across 7 hours!!! ivanlaam appo irunthiruntha kalla vittu tv ya odachirupan nenakren!!!
