Gnanavadivel Singaravadivel — Fix

If your MySQL or PostgreSQL database is storing "Gnanavadivel" as broken UTF-8, perform this fix:

-- MySQL: Convert column from latin1 to utf8mb4
ALTER TABLE tamil_text CONVERT TO CHARACTER SET utf8mb4 COLLATE utf8mb4_unicode_ci;
-- Then, manually fix the specific entry by re-normalizing
UPDATE tamil_text SET content = CONVERT(CAST(CONVERT(content USING latin1) AS BINARY) USING utf8mb4) WHERE content LIKE '%Singaravadivel%';

Important: Always backup your database before running this fix. The Gnanavadivel Singaravadivel Fix for databases requires converting latin1-stored UTF-8 bytes back into proper UTF-8.
