Posted by Vasanthi Sankaranayaranan's review of recent Madras Players production (24.47.241.215) on June 16, 2005 at 11:15:26:

 With all due respect to Vasanthi Sankaranarayanan, did anyone feel that this review was a little on the harsh side? I know reviewers have the freedom to write what they want, but the pen was surely a sharp-pointed one. Calling a Chennaite veteran theater actor's rendition "pathetic" is simply crossing the line in my opinion. And I guess VS has her opinion too... but where is the sense of pragmatic appropriateness on the part of the reviewer? And where do we draw the line, transforming constructive criticism (which can be both positive and negative feedback) into destructive criticism?
