THE LEGENDARY KING - MGR (MARTHUR GOPALA RAMACHANDRAN (1917-1987))



I happened to visit MGR memorial during my Chennai , solo trip . Was not really a big fan of MGR , as i was not from Tamil Nadu , but as a protocol of the listed places in Google went to see the MGR memorial which is located in Marina Beach Road, NAVALA NAGAR.  Outside weather was a bit hot as i stepped into the entrance the security greeted me with a smile and I enquired about the entrance ticket , and came to know it is absolutely free to have a look around the memorial house of MGR , which was filled with numerous awards , medal, gifts, his consumables , his car , his pen , , watch etc..

Slowly started walking around the rooms in which there were a lot of his accomplishments and multiple temple, cities, and governments have awarded him. Slowly I started observing each and every award and who have given him in detail , slowly stepping and staring at those awards . Most of them where in the architectural designs of temples and cities .

Then suddenly my mind started realising and getting surprised with the fact that , how could one person achieve soon many appreciations in one life time . Was totally blown away with endless pics of his contacts and meetings ranging from chief ministers, prime ministers , presidents, athletes , co-artists and orphans and underprivileged children .

I started looking at them with more admiration , a fan kind of feeling and still in a thought of unbelievable feeling , HOW , HOW !! How can someone work so hard for his work , for his family , for his people, for his state , for his party , for his Country and for the world . Then understood why he had such a huge fan following and such great legacy .

TRULY AN INSPIRATIONAL LIFE !! WHICH ACTUALLY MADE ME TO WRITE THIS BLOG , WHICH IS TOTALLY UNPLANNED .

WHAT I LEARNT : SUCCESS IS NOT EASY AND NO SHORT CUT , YOU HAVE PUT YOUR 100% OF HANDWORK, COMMITMENT , FOCUS , CONSISTENTLY AND ALOT OF SACRIFICES ON THE WAY ONLY WILL LEAD YOU TO SUCCESS :-)

JAI MGR !!
