CM Kirankumar Reddy struggles with his Telugu on ‘International Mother Language Day’

On February 21, the world observed ‘International Mother Language Day’ . This is how AP CM Kirankumar Reddy marked the day - with his inimitable Telugu :) Watch the video. And the very accurate cartoon from cartoonist Sridhar on the fun. 

I am not sure if the CM can write Telugu.

Not that I support Congress or the CM or Seema, but why is poor raayalaseema's accent is made fun of now? Does fighting for TG(aka self respect) give us the right to laugh at other dialects? I think the guy is purely confused which accent to pick up(I am not saying he's good). I wonder if TG people and Andhrites know what Seema language is like(the one they show in movies is BS). If you are gutsy enough, pick up a mass andhra accent and publish it.

If TG comes or not, Seema will definitely lose. No, I am not talking about the mere one or two villages/towns or a chunk of people who have been benefited but about the entire region.

@ Harisha

You got it wrong buddy. I know enough about Chittoor accent and thats not what I am talking about here. He says 'duradha' and he says 'mana bedhaabipraayalu munduku teesukuveldham!' There are many more such gems. He breaks sentences mid-way. He was searching for words! His confusion is not about accent or for that matter use of words. He is simply not comfortable in Telugu. I found it an irony on the mother language day.

P.S: Not everything I post is about TG

hmmm....accepted.

'mana bedhaabipraayalu munduku teesukuveldham!' this is what they've been doing, isn't it? :)

Hi Dude..

Am not a supporter of any party or person though. When some one is speaking with excitement it's very much possible that some things might have slipped out or they wont come in a flow. It doesn't mean that, the guy doesn't have control on the mother tongue. For a person to speak flawlessly he should be a spokesman. Not every leader has this skill.

Am I right?

He calls himself a Hyderabadi but he Confessed that he doesnt Understand One word of Urdhu.

Absolutely hilarious......he can definitely rival a Laurel and Hardy or MR Bean with his telugu baash(ings)ans. Gud going MR CM....

@Suvan,

Mistakes happen now and then. Not every time. He simply can not speak comfortably. And I don't he can write at all. He is comfortable with English.

@Lalith,

Forget about Urdhu, he can't even manage Hindi despite his much publicized Nizam college background.
