Man shares chilling story of how his Nepali help's wife started speaking fluent Tamil after being possessed by a "Chudail"
The car cleaner, who is reportedly from Nepal and lives in Chennai, recently informed Narayanan that he would be going on a month-long break due to an emergency. Narayanan provided financial help, but what happened next, he noted, was shocking and deeply unsettling.
He said: 'Mere wife ko chudail ne pakad liya hai.' (A ghost has possessed my wife.)

According to Narayanan, the man's wife had been unwell, reportedly due to a heart condition involving a hole in her heart. However, the husband is convinced that the issue is not medical, but supernatural.
'In the last 6 months, she's started speaking fluent Tamil.
Not a few words. Entire sentences. Almost like a native speaker.'
He added that she had never learned Tamil before. The couple lives in a closely-knit Nepali community in Chennai, with limited exposure to the language. 'It is definitely not easy to pick it up naturally,' Narayanan noted.
Medical visits, religious rituals, and a warning
The man reportedly took his wife to a government hospital (GH) for treatment, but there was no improvement. The man then went to a local mosque for help, where rituals were performed over the past two months. Narayanan noted there was still no progress. 'In fact, she now speaks even more Tamil.' Eventually, the imam at the masjid issued a warning. 'Take her back home. If she stays here, she may not survive.' This advice has led the family to go back to Nepal.
'This guy is super bright'
In a follow-up comment, Narayanan mentioned that the car cleaner is known for his intelligence and quick learning abilities.
'And btw, this guy is super bright. I even got him a second-hand laptop (@\_glnarayanan, remember?) last year, considering his intelligence, interest, and grasp for picking new things up, especially tech.'
Commenters share their thoughts: From past lives to mental well-being
The tweet has sparked a lot of discussion, with people sharing everything from spiritual knowledge to scientific explanations.
One user mentioned: 'In sastras, we refer to people as jatismara, where a rare person could acquire memories of the past birth. Then the language of the previous birth is known to them. While a medical doctor should be consulted for therapy, it is said that listening to Jada-bharata charitram of Srimad Bhagavatam helps.'
Another commented: 'The fluent Tamil factor is something even science can't explain.
I hope she recovers.'
Some advised being cautious and thinking critically:
'I also have a Nepali driver.
They are very superstitious.
Fluent Tamil– who called it fluent Tamil? For someone who knows no Tamil, anything might seem fluent.
She should see a psychiatrist right away.'
Another user wrote: 'Seen a psychiatrist? A lot of such behaviours could stem from mental conditions. She may have had the condition for a while and has been quietly learning Tamil passively. Now, some trigger has outwardly manifested the problem.'
Narayanan responded to this: 'He has been taking her to the GH, and the GH here is supposed to be really good. Not sure which specialist, etc. He has already bought tickets to go back, etc, so l didn't ask any further questions, plus I was taken a bit aback. This guy is smart.'
Speculations, suggestions, and spiritual routes
Many users in the replies suggested the family seek spiritual help, both in Tamil Nadu and Nepal.
'Nepal, there should be tantrics who can help. Hope he can find the right help there, or also some of their village deities will be powerful. I wonder, even in Tamil Nadu, didn't he try some of the temples... There should be some who would help with this.'
Another suggestion was made: 'Recommend to go to Chotanikara and visit the Bhagavathi temple.'
Some questioned if she was really fluent: 'How can they be sure it's Tamil and very fluent too? If they have minimal exposure in the region, who's the one identifying it?' To which Narayanan replied: 'I stay in Chennai.'
A case that has left the internet thinking
With hundreds of reactions, guesses, and suggestions still coming in, the tweet continues to get people talking. While the story hasn't been confirmed and is personal, it has caught the attention of many, raising questions about health, beliefs, and the unknown. At the time of writing, no further updates have been shared by the original poster.

Assam govt starts drive to clear encroachment on 3,600 acres of forest land
The families whose houses are being demolished belong to the Muslim community, while those having FRC certificates are from Bodo, Nepali and other communities, locals claimed Press Trust of India Golaghat (Assam) The Assam government on Tuesday began a massive eviction drive to clear alleged encroachment on over 3,600 acres of forest land in Golaghat district, officials said. The move by the state government will affect at least 1,500 families, they said. Several senior officials of the Golaghat district administration and the forest department told PTI that the eviction drive started in the morning to clear the alleged encroachment on almost 11,000 bighas (over 3,600 acres) of land of Rengma Reserve Forest in Uriamghat along the Assam-Nagaland border in Sarupathar sub-division. "The eviction drive started from the main market in the Bidyapur area. We will gradually proceed to residential areas and demolish the illegal housing structures," an official said. He claimed that around 10,500 bighas to 11,000 bighas of land were encroached upon by the people. "Around 2,000 families are living in those areas. Out of them, notices were served to about 1,500 families, who illegally settled here. The remaining families are forest dwellers and have certificates from the Forest Rights Committee (FRC)," the official said. The families whose houses are being demolished belong to the Muslim community, while those having FRC certificates are from Bodo, Nepali and other communities, locals claimed. "Around 80 per cent of the families who had received notices have already vacated their illegal settlements in the last few days. We are only demolishing their homes," the official added.

Dhan celebrates 11 years of ‘Namathu Mannvasam' magazine
Dhan Foundation in Madurai celebrated the 11th anniversary of their monthly Tamil magazine – 'Namathu Mannvasam' – here on Monday. The magazine, retaining its unique identity, has kept up with its promise of promoting mostly new women writers and readers, said M.P. Vasimalai, Executive Director of Dhan Foundation. As reading habit among students has gradually diminished, the magazine should produce engaging contents based on Tamil literature found only in bits and pieces in school syllabuses, he added. When some of the important and essential Tamil literatures were present just as stand-alone poems in subject books, the students would barely think of reaching out to the whole work of literature, Mr. Vasimalai stated. 'By producing content in the form of story reading, the students, who are the target readers, could be largely engaged,' he added. Further, speaking about the magazine's novel effort, he said that the writers who contributed to the magazine were mostly ground-level workers. Through this, the magazine has proved that it could sustain the content that comes organically from working class people, he added. Appreciating the tremendous hard work behind every published magazine, he said that publishing houses should also consider coming up with at least five translated works of writers which have hardly reached the public. Madhan Kumar, of Padiparivu Pathipagam, said the magazine which was being published in Tamil, Kannada and Marathi, is to be expanded to other languages like Odia and Telugu. 'As a uniqueness of the magazine, of the 500 writers, 200 of them were women. Also, every year's March month edition would be a by-women and for-women edition,' he noted. Adhering to the famous philosopher Antonio Gramsci's perspective about organic intellectual, he said, 'The magazine runs solely on the organic intellectuals - women writers also the field workers.' Magazine's editor B. Thirumalai recalling the efforts of the magazine to continue its work during Covid-19 pandemic, said that even the mainstream magazines could not sustain during the critical few months of the pandemic. 'It was possible because of the readers who pushed us to expand our horizons out of our comfort zones,' he added. Now, the aim of the magazine would be reaching 50,000 copies from the current 25,000 copies and their work in the following days would be towards that, he said. During the event, a compilation of the 12 magazines was released.
