Dear Jack, tamils as an ethnic group may have several positive traits about them, but filmmaking is not their forte and they have to learn it from Keralites. for over three decades now their cinema, politics, art and culture have registered a dangerous slide and the so-called intellectuals among them have done nothing about it. the trend in Tamil Nadu is that anything loud and lewd sells there! Most of the scholars and intellectuals are content to be the stooges of the party in power.
