Naming Roads after Actors

Read a recent news item that the TN govt. is planning to name roads after the leading actors Kamal & Rajini. Kamal is a great actor and Rajini is a great human being. However, looking back, doesn't TN have any other person to name the road after? Its not be-littling them, but what examples are we setting to the next generation? Can you name ONE person in the recent past that the govt. named the streets after? Don't we have Dr. M.S Swaminathan? Don't we have Dr.Abdul Kalam? Don't we have Mr. Sujatha - the writer & Scientist? The pathetic state of TN is if you want to be great, then you have to become an actor. Is this what we want our kids to become? The cine industry is having an exorbitant say in the govt. in TN while no other industry / section of the society has such an influence.
