Tamil ponnu talking only in Vadivelu memes - anybody else like me ?

Anyone else here who can speak Tamil fluently but absolutely cannot read or write it? 😂

I’m basically Tamilian at heart, just with zero literacy skills. 😭

I grew up on the Mani Ratnam-Gautham Menon version of Tamil culture, communicate fluently in Vadivelu memes, movie dialogues and dramatic “dei enna da?”, and somehow still consider myself a fully qualified Tamil ponnu at heart.

Anybody else like me? where are you?
