6/16/2023 0 Comments Kalaignar karunanidhi moviesOnly in the movies post 2000, like that of Subramaniyapuram or Kadhal the caste of the antagonist were easily identifiable.I don't think there was a movie like Shankarabharanam in Tamil which had a Brahmin as the protagonist who is worried about the decline of culture and arts.JKB in Sindhubhairavi movie was not a Brahmin, which could have been portrayed so easily.Īll this could be related to Dravidian Politics.Though Brahmins were never physically assaulted there were easier targets for making fun. They were not even portrayed as being casteist,they were all champions of human cause. But in these movies they were not criticised or ridiculed. In 1990s we had movies which had Gounder or Thevar or a Vanniyar as the protagonist. The most important accusation of this article is the hatred Dravidian Politics spewed on Brahmins.Yes, Brahmins were called publicly as Paarpan, Pappathi.If one analyses the movies of Tamil cinema, if there is one community which has been always easily ridiculed it was Brahmin community.No other community had been ridiculed or criticised.Any movie which had to speak about caste system took Brahmins as the representative of Caste system. From the recent article of Aravindan Kannaiyan on Kalaignar Karunanidhi we can understand that Aravindan Kannaiyan didn't get medical seat probably because his father was a doctor and 5 extra marks was granted for students from the families which never had a graduate.
