Trivandrum or Thiruvananthapuram...all tvm people(paylukal) pronounce "Thiruvananthapuram" as "tirontoram" as its easy to pronounce...this will hopefully change once its changed to "Ananthapuri" ...the name makes u feel its an ancient city...

Kuttappan was bragging to his boss one day, “You know, I know everyone
there is to know. Just name someone, anyone, and I know them.”
Tired of his boasting,
his boss called his bluff, “OK, Kuttappan how about Tom Cruise?”
“Sure,
yes, Tom and I are old friends, and I can prove it.”
So Kuttappan and his boss fly out to Hollywood and knock on Tom
Cruise’s door, and sure enough,
Tom Cruise shouts,”Babu! Great to see you! You and your friend come
right in and join me for lunch!” Although impressed, Kuttappan’s boss
is still sceptical. After they leave Cruise’s house, he tells Kuttappan
that he thinks Kuttappan’s knowing Cruise was just lucky. “No, no, just
name anyone else”,
Kuttappan says. “President Clinton,” his boss quickly retorts.
“Yes,”
Kuttappan says, “I know him, let’s fly out to Washington.” And off
they
go. At the White House, Clinton spots Kuttappan on the tour and motions
him and his boss over, saying, “Babu, what a surprise, I was just on my
way to a meeting, but you and your friend come on in and let’s have a
cup of coffee first and catch up.” Well, the boss is very shaken by
now, but still not totally convinced. After they leave the White House
grounds,
He expresses his doubts to Kuttappan who again implores him to name
anyone else. “The Pope,” his boss replies “Sure!” says
Kuttappan. “I
have a lot of friends in Poland, and I’ve known the Pope a long time.”
So off they fly to Rome. Kuttappan and his boss are assembled with the
masses in Vatican Square when Kuttappan says, “This will never work. I
can’t catch the Pope’s eye among all these people. Tell you what, I
know all the guards, so let me just go upstairs and I’ll come out on
the balcony with the Pope. So he disappears into the crowd, headed
toward the Vatican. Sure enough, half an hour later Kuttappan emerges
with the Pope on the balcony. But by the time Kuttappan returns, he
finds that his boss has had a heart attack and is surrounded by
paramedics.
Working his way to his boss’ side, Kuttappan asks him, “what
happened?”
His boss looks up and says, “I was doing fine until you and the Pope
came out on the balcony and the man next to me said, “Who’s that on the
balcony with Kuttappan?
Moral of the story - Don’t ever underestimate a malayalee again!!!!

I prefer Anantapuri too, Trivandrum is too stuck-up.
@gov Amritapuri is what you're talking about. BTW, have you watched Classmates; brilliant movie. Was getting ready to sleep when i walked into the theater and walked out eyes wide open.
