The message says that Periyar family (though not a Brahmin) has treated some people as outcasts. It is also clear whole lot of Hindus treated some people as untouchable. In that case, Periyar should have directly attacked the problem. Instead, why did he target at Brahmin? Why did he target the Hindu religion and Hindu god? Why did he tried an indirect and round-about way to attack the problem? Did he try to attack the problem or the person?
Any such approach for the problem would have created anti-hindu and anti-brahmin feeling. That is exactly is the scene now.

Well Said If Periyar saw atrocities committed by his own family against others why did he say only brahmins are responsible for that. Think people think.
So much for Hypocrisy of DMK supremo M Karunanidhi. He is an aethist does not believe in superstition . Then why the hell is he wearing an yellow shawl all the time. I will tell you why its because an astrologer said that he should wear this for good luck and can be in power. His followers are blindly following him. I wonder when will TN people would start to think.
You called periyar a legend?? Do you know what LEGEND means??? Did you study the history & watched the movie or just wrote this review for time pass?? Marrying 16 year old at 80 years is what a legend does?? and you call such a character a LEGEND?? ha ha ha..

if you dont look at all the good causes he fought for and the results of it,
if you only look at the faults of a human being, then you wont have LEGEND.
Then who is legend? Nehru was after Mountbatten's wife..? Amitabh was after Rekha?
these are the LEGENDs for you?
Every public figure has some bad and good. Look at hoe much good you get out of it as a society.
when clinton was president, the economy was so good. but Monica lewinsky issue made some people irritate and dislike him.
But Bush is Mr. clean when it come to that dept., but then how many people dislike him for the war? or the economy?
There is no 100% perfect politicians in the world. Only better ones, who can make a change in society and better the lives of millions.
Can some one answer this, Agreed that you cannot call a dalit as a DALIT its wrong to use a caste name to address a person. If that is the case hwy are Brahmins called brahmins and pappan etc? Is that correct. See this shows the hypocrite mentality of people they use the caste name when it suits them. Use the caste name in applications to get free everything at the same time call it deplorable to use the caste name. On the other hand call a certain sect of people by their caste name to gain mileage. Wow Hail this double standard hypocrite people

sriram ( name itself shows that u r pappan).
Then how have you called dalits in your post.
All human beings are equal.If you think so you are a great human being. Have you ever been not allowed insidae a temple, have you ever been asked to drink tea in a coconut shell, have you ever been allowed to walk out without slippers in streets only because of your birth which you cant decide ( atleast your GOD who created dalits and you great brahmins)

Hi Jusbon, Shows your class (mind you not caste)! When will you guys start thinking with your brains rather than Periyas ass? All teh discrimination is done by BC's (Thevars, Nadras, Gounders), so will you raise your voice againt them? I dare you too, as they will shove your pea sized brain in your giant sized ass. Also, try setting up a business (does not matter if you are a Bhramin or a Dalit) in Gounder dominated areas (Coimbatore, Tiruppur) or Nadar dominated areas (Nagecoil), you will have your butt kicked and sent back. Lets see if you can voice your protests against this discrimination.

Rightly said sir.Brahmin and hinduism bashers should not be respected,atleast hindus should refarme from doing that.
this is the age of kali. and indian nation and culture is in its last gasps. its no surprise that we are going to see more idiots like periyar, karunanidhi in this age. all historians will agree that gupta period is the golden period in indian history where brahmins were accorded highest respect. the same cannot be said of today. all market boom is fal;se indications. disaster looming large over india. we have nuclear weapons and we are in a position not to use it because of indo-US nuclear pact.but china and pakistan can conduct nuclear tests and drop bombs on india. india is finished. hail the caste politics.

I AM A Scheduled Tribe and i feel that Periyar wnted to create more discrimination based on religion.Periyar would have led only to the pathal lok. He is a saddist. And u know, why ARE LEADERS OF DRAVIDAR KAZHAGAM GARLANDING HIM WITH FLOWERS KNOWING THAT GARLANDING IS A HINDU Tradition!!! . He wanted to destroy Tamil. He even GARLANDED LORD RAMA WITH SLIPPERS!!!! He didnt change his name of RAMASAMY. I could say proudly that he was a man who was keen for girls in his 60's. Fool... Damn it. And now MK is taking Temple"s money and using for his partys promotion. Is there any temple in good condition in tamilnadu , known for beautiful temples.

Please block the messages of Mr.Digital. He seems not to talk rationally and is entirely driven by hate against brahmins and is inciting violence against a particular community.
It is a known fact that when a IAS officer is incarporated in the Indian Admistrative Service , he swears his alliagnce to the loyalty, integrety and alligance to the Indian Democratic Republic.
All IAS officers have to swear to this pledge of
"To my country and my people I pledge my devotion I solemnly pledge to work with dedication to preserve and strengthen the freedom and integrity of the nation"
Now here is an Individual Gnana Rajasekharan who is an IAS officer makes a
film of Periyar then he has to touch the subjects of..
1> His opposition to Indias Freedom struggle and colabration with the Britishers .
2>Visit to Russia and meet the Russian dictator Joseph Stalin who slaughtered and executed 40 million of his own Russian comarades in concentntration camps..!
3> In 1956, he took a procession of Rama's picture garlanded with slippers. So has to show open defamation and insult to Hindusim near Dharmapuri and destroyed the portrait in public. And show praises of Islam and Christinity.
4>Most importantly his own cry of Separate country for Dravidian people.
5> his stand of against competing in elections in a democracy and the democratic system.
6>Reinterpreted" Ramayana-a version transposing hero and villain, in which the Sri Lankan demon king Ravana becomes a heroic "Dravidian of 'excellent character, convinently forgetting Ravana was a Brahmin..!! Devi Sita was shown as a flirt and a characterless woman..!!!
7>Encouraged the policy of evicting Brahmins from their homelands, towns and villages , forcing the "LARGEST SILENT FORCED MIGRATION" of Brahmins outside of Tamilnadu.Infact has similarities to the eviction of Kashmiri Pandits from the Valley, only the means there were violent, here they were silent and invissible but yet state sponsered.
Now I am interested to see how is a IAS officer going to put all this anti-India and hatefull information in the film.
Well with the Communists in support to UPA , anything that offends Hindus is always welcome.This just falls in part of that agenda.
So only when the combination of Commees Congress DMK Muslim league Italian Sonia is in Power, people who can insult Indians and Hindus will always gain strength.

Guys relax, what did Gandhi say? First they will ridicule you, then oppose you and then they wil be defeated. Jusbon is one of those who has been defeated. First he ridiculed Bhramins and Hindu culture, then he abused and oppsoed them and now he is lying in his own filth defeated and angry. Ha ha ha. So much for Periyar and his idotic legacy. {eriyar was a loser throughout his life. He could not digest it and hence turned his stupid hatred into breaking Hindus.
