Our honorable Prime Minister Narendra Modi just made an announcement that all 500 and 1000 rupee notes that are in circulation will become invalid starting from midnight today (8th November). Experts are already expressing their opinions about this exciting move.
It must be noted that Shankar and writer Sujatha suggested the concept of abolishing 500 and 1000 rupee notes in a Tamil film Sivaji back in 2007 and now our Prime Minister Modi is implementing the same into practice.
We would like to compare this decision with one of the popular scenes in a Tamil film Pichaikaaran recently. In one scene in the film, where a beggar expresses his point of view about how India could improve the economy, the beggar actually says that all 500 and 1000 rupee notes should be made invalid to curb corruption. His words have now been put into practice.
