He has left us physically but continues to be among us through his voice.”

ஒருவர் எதில் மாத்திரம் உள்ளப்பூர்வமாக ஈடுபட்டுக்கொண்டே இருக்கிறாரோ அதுவாகவே மாறிவிடுகிறார். என் அன்னய்யா பாலு பாடுவதற்கெனவே தன் ஆயுளைத் தத்தம் செய்தவர். அதனால்தான் குரலாகவே மாறிவிட்டார். சரீரத்தை விட்டவர் சாரீரமாக நம்மோடு உலவுகிறார். pic.twitter.com/xnmWcXonw2
