sir - in case of of devars only men are potrayed in a slightly offensive manner. but in case of bramins even women are potrayed offensively. moreover, if potrayal of devars in tamil cinema is offensive, surely devars would have protested or petitioned the censor board. the fact that they have not done so clearly shows there is nothing offensive in potrayal of devars in tamil films. whereas bramins have petitioned & protested many times against offensive potrayal of bramins in tamil movies.

 

[NARAS]

sir - yes! the film makers mentioned in this thread are really 'gems'! 'gems' is a chocolate packet worth one rupee. these film makers are also worth not more than one rupee!!!!

 

[NARAS]

sirs - it is very irritating to see on sun t.v. many bramin women anchors speak in tamil which is far worse than the tamil of illiterate non bramins. ramya krishna, who was doing a flop programme called 'thanga vettai' regularly used the word 'povudhu' instead of the decent 'pogirathu'. now jayashree former(?) actress who is running an absurd show called 'thiruvaalar thirumathi' is also using the same word. on vijay tv, flop actress anu haasa, sister of the discredited suhasini uses words like 'pidichichu' instead of 'pidikkirathu' which is more decent and pleasing. SPB Charan also said 'vandhicu' instead of 'vandhudhu'. these may look like ordinary things. but i feel very difficult to digest this sort of 'tamil', particularly when it comes from persons who are said to be 'bramins'.

hi naras,

watching tamizh channels is waste of time. we could better utilise it in other ways where we can improve the intellect. hope u may agree with me

cheers

A thought

I wonder if we arent taking this in a lighter vein - afterall, Hindu scriptures (such as the laws of Manu) were fairly explicitly cruel towards an entire community of people - the shudras. So I think we should all just chill out, take it easy and learn to laugh at ourselves and our religions

SIR - were orthodox temples built by our ancestors & forefathers for these tamil film makers to film their erotic vomits? will sundar.c 'present' husband of khusboo answer??? ever since 'parasakthi' AVM poiappa err...sorry..meiappa chettiar, which showed an orthodox priest trying to rape a female devotee inside temple premises, tamil films are always showing orthodox hinduism in poor light. the habit of potraying bramins in an offensive manner, even by bramins themselves, is not there in films of any other language any where in the world.this is there only in taml films, because taml films are dominated by the 'rationalists' like the muthuvelar, late c.n. annadurai (who called himself as 'perarignar'), the 'haasa', the k.b. chander and sundry.

 

[NARAS]

sirs - we are now living in a modern democracy. we have well established laws which prohibit mocking at any community in public. so to tearfully justify penal offences in the name of taking revenge is invalid.

SIRS- i have not seen the film 'periar', but read reviews about it. inspite of getting 95 lakhs 'gift' from the karunanidhi govt. and inspite of getting tax free certificate, and inspite of being released only in small theatres, the film has bombed and flopped, and is running(?) to empty houses, like the 'periar's rationalism. it is said , there is a scene in the film, where the 'periar' is shown as helping a bramin woman who is suffering from labour pain. this according to the discredited director of the film, is an example of the maganamity of the 'periar'! what sort of 'rationality' is this? all over the world , for centuries it has been the habit of human beings to render medical assistance to fellow humans on humanitarian basis. many bramins should also have done this. this small, universal act is being blown up by the director as a noble act on the part of the 'periar'!

like that the 'periar' says that russia will be disintegrated if more freedom is not given. ironically, the USSR disintegrated mainly because more freedom was given, which enabled many parts of USSR to openly proclaim freedom!!

the 'periar' also curses mahatma that mahatma will be killed by a bramin. this according to some shows 'foresight' of the 'periar'! if i forfeit my commonsense and irrationaly abuse my opponent, and if by chance, it happens to be true is it foresight or fluke???? if the 'periar' had such a foresight, why did he support the british who had to pack out of india lock, stock & barrel? why was the 'periar' not able to foresee that his party would be split by his own partymen due to his 'marriage' with maniyamma????

the film also shows'periar ' as managing a temple with good adminstrative capabilities. it also says 'periar' was the ist person in india who arranged for supplying drinking water to houses of residents! i wonder whether these are all true to the extent mentioned! afterall the 'periar' was neither educated nor experienced enough to perform these sort of miracles!!! at the best, he may have arranged water supply to a few homes or managed a temple for a few days!!!
'diamondu' vairamuthu's lyrics are stale and uninspiring as much as non music by vidyasagar.

whilst dying it is said the 'periar' quailed and wailed that he was going to die without abolishing casteism! this scene compensates for the fact that there is not much of comedy in the film!!!

( i am sure because of various 'influences' this film will win many awards- not only at state level, but even at national, and who knows internationa levels also!)

 

[NARAS]

sirs- ever since 'parasakthi' all films of AVM have lilberal dosage of vulgarity, sex, eroticism and violence, though censor rules do not allow this.
remember 'sakalakala vallavan' in which silk smitha was disrobed by the AVM brothers to titillate the audience and make crores? it seems shreya is the latest victim in 'shivaji'. if this film succeds it will encourage film makers to produce more films with vulgarity and violence. The maran brothers have been decimated to some extent. will AVM brothers suffer the same fate. or will people encourage them to continue with their sex business?

 

[NARAS]

SIRS - this actor calls himself a 'superstar'. he has openly & proudly(?) declared himself to be a chain smoker, drunkard & a meat eater. the fellow calls himself a great devotee of swamy raghavendrar. but he has openly flirted with & supported the hindu abuser & yellow shawlist, the karunanidhi. the fellow's latest film is to be released in a few days from now. it has been produced by a film company which is very famous for producing films with sex, erotic vulgarity & violence. this film has been given 100% tax exemption by the govt.of the yellow shawlist on the pretext that the title of the film is pure tamil! but, actually the title is not even impure tamil, leave alone pure tamil! so, even if the film becomes a dismal flop, the producers will not incur huge losses, as they need not have to pay any tax! all these tax concessions not for producing anything noble,but making films with 50% sexual & 50% violent contents!
the only point perhaps in favour of the fellow is the fact that he is not a public womaniser, which reportedly most the other tamil film actors are. but most of the 'fans' of the fellow are illiterates & rowdy elements.

 

[NARAS]

sirs- this 'diamondu' lyricist calls himself as a 'kaviperrarasan'. by
reportedly (mis)using his influence with the yellow shawlist, he ha managed to get many national awards. ironically, it is said most of the lyrics credited to him are actually written by his wife!

 

[NARAS]

sirs- in the serial 'imsai arasigal' telecast on sun tv every sunday evening 07.00 p.m. IST, many bramin characters are shown as speaking in 3rd rate non bramin language. the maker of the serial, flop actress & cinema discard sripriya, is an actress who played vampish roles in many films herself. there is no quality in her serials also.

Be aware that eveyone - including non-brahmins are reading this forum.

Dear Mr. Vaithikasri:

Could you be specific? What comments posted here are disgusting to you? Please quote them.

 

[NARAS]

sirs- as the initiator of this thread and major contributor, i would also like to know specifically the lack of focussing, lack of objectivity and digression from dignity which create disgustion, so that i can correct myself in the future. the participants in this thread, including myself have contributed many viewpoints in other threads also. how is it that members who are so 'dignified' in other threads, become 'disgusting' in this thread alone????

you are saying bramins should be dignified. does this mean non bramins need not be dignified at all???

 

[NARAS]

WHY ARE TAMILS SO CRAZY ABOUT FILM STARS & POLITICIANS???
------------------------------------------------------------------

SIRS - i have not heard in any part of the world, including in india, where people are so crazy about films, film stars & politicians, as in t.nadu. in other parts of the world, actors are respected for their on screen performance. but in t.nadu, even the absurd views of actors about politics is taken seriously by people, as if they are intellects! what politicians say is blindly accepted and followed. even ordinary baffoons are eulogised as 'rationalists' & even 'reformers'! politicians who functioned as agents of british, who wanted to partition our motherland on the basis of race, are worshipped as prophets & gods! what is wrong with our people???

 

[NARAS]

BTW this will not be a permanent thread like a mega serial. this will be only for a short period!!!

sirs - what i said above on 23 02 2007 on page 1 & posting no.10 of this thread holds valid even now. this thread can be closed-no problem for me. the agenda can always be continued in a different & 'dignified' way in other threads of this forum!

 

[NARAS]

sirs - t.nadu is also probably the only place world , where politicians are referred not by their name, but by 'titles'. for e.g. karunanidhi always calls himself as 'kalaignar'. EVR Ramasamy Naick called himself as 'periar'. annadurai called himself as 'anna'.

The habit of forming fan clubs for actors all over the state, spending lavishly to propagate the fame of these actors - all these are all practices, which ido not think are existent at the same level anywhere in the world!

 

[NARAS]

sirs - the potrayal of physically handicapped & mentally challenged persons ,eunuchs in tamil cinemas is also highly offensive. these unfortunate persons are shown as baffoons and lampooned mercilessly. it seems these tamil cinemas fellows do not have any heart or conscience at all.

 

[NARAS]

sirs- SILA NERNANGAIL SILA MANITHARGAL is probably only film in which lakshmi has not overacted (to say lakshmi is a female shivaji is an understatement, and even an insult to the shivaji. actualy in overacting, lakshmi is equal to 100 shivajis!) lakshmi got national award for best actress for this film.


the story is about an extrememly sensitive topic - rape and that too rape of a bramin women by a non bramin. still the potrayal is not offensive to bramins in any way, unlike ARANGETRAM in which porn director K. BALACHANDAR showed a bramin as a prostitute.

I remember reading somewhere that SILA NERANGALIL SILA MANITHARGAL is only tamil film of international standards

 

[NARAS]

sirs- in a recently released soft porn film called 'thullal', the hero(?) is shown as displaying slippers inside an orthodox temple! how did the censors allow this? will tamil filmmakers have the spine to crank the same scene inside a mosque or a church?
if such a scene were to filmed in a mosque or a church, even muslims or christians may not oppose it. but so called 'secular' hindus ,led by worldwide champion of minority rights 'The Hindu' will howl, wail, lament & chestbeat like anything! Nara Ram of the 'Hindu' says BJP is communal, but certifies DMK as a pure(?) 'secular' party, even though the DMK itself was a close ally of the BJP not long ago! it was this same nara.ram who expressed public happiness about the defeat of rajiv gandhi 1989. rajiv was the target of venomous abuses of the nara.ram in 1989. but now he is one of the chief pets of the sonia maino, the wife of the very same rajiv whom he hounded with vengenance! leave nara.ram. after all journalists like nara.ram are there in this profession only to make money and earn publicity. so they cannot be expected to have any ethics, shame or morality. but how is sonia maino collaborating with forces which character assassinated her late husband?

in 2003, many cases were filed against The Hindu by AIADMK govt. of jayalalitha. nara.ravi, who was editor till then, developed panic and ran away from the editorial post of The Hindu! so much so far courageous journalism!

 

[NARAS]

sirs- on 08.07.2007 sunday night, sun t.v. telecast a spl. programme on the film 'sivaji'. peter hayne, stunt master of the film said that for a fight sequence, involving about 40 new cars, which is shown in the film for only 3 minutes, the producers, AVM Brothers have spent 1crore & eighty lakhs! i repeat again- ONE CRORE & EIGHTY LAKHS! and india is said to be a poor country! even if i live for 100 yrs.i cannot earn this much amount in my life!

 

[Chintana]

Who did you address this posting to, NARAS?

And why are you using that painfully big, red font, which is so offensive to the eyes?

Sonia in this issue

I guess Sonia's reaction towards the parties that support the organisation who masterminded and executed the former PM of India is not of ordinary human being. I dont remember she directly attacked them nor the parties supporting the organisation atleast once in the 16 long years. No revenge.Forget the past and give a clean chit to party which was in a way facilitated according to Jain commision interim report and alliance with other parties too who openly support them.Only two choices are possible.One is genuine forgiving.Other is to achieve her political ambitions.The probability of the second is higher than the first.

its ridiculous in tamil movies. I have not seen anything happening like this is anyother (minority) community. Whether the bondage in the community is weak in a times of cheap/ vulguar against our's. Time to look at social stigma?????????
