Trivia

Sunday Trivia: If a lady who appoints you as the Managing Director of her company - Sri Sira School Ltd., ends up telling a tiresome joke instead of a poor joke, adds a few kilometres to your car, sings first and last songs of M.L.Vasanthakumari ignoring the middle one and reverses them before her brother's hill near Lord Muruga's ammunition depot to teach transfer pricing to you, what is her name? Answer: Meenakshi (MDU, TPJ, TJ, KMU, MV, VM, TMV, VLR, TPTY)
