Tamil Brahmins are now based all over the world they are permanently settled outside Tamil Nadu .Tamils earlier migrated to Mumbai ,Bangalore and Calcutta .Now all over the World in particular,USA ,UK ,Canada and Australia. Second and Third generation have lost contact with Tamil Nadu earlier they lost contact with the native villages after the entire families migrated from the villages.
Unlike the Gulf migrants who return to India.Today over 85 % of non GULF migrants will not return
Now children born in USA and even places like Mumbai cannot speak Tamil properly and have lost there roots to Tamil Nadu and further at least one member of the extended family has married outside the community.
With one child or 2 children the Tamil Brahmans particularly younger generation live in hotels when visiting Chennai or even India with absolutely no family to call upon.
Is Tamil culture disappearing in the diaspora
