Businessman Anand Mahindra tweeted that one Tamil phrase, "poda dei", is enough to sum up a person's frustration, as opposed to two full English sentences. Mahindra, who did his schooling in Tamil Nadu, said, "This Tamil phrase is the one I learned first, used the most often...and have used consistently...throughout my life." He described Tamil as an "energy-efficient language".
