It is not human tendency!
In North India, South Indians are treated badly and insulted in North Indian slang because they have dark skin and "look like petty thieves"!
The only tendency this exhibits is inhuman tendency!
South Indians who work in North India only tolerate this behavior towards them because (1) they don't understand most of these insults and (2) Because they are working in North India out dire need or compulsions.
So don't say what foreigners assume about Indians is the same as what North Indians actually mean about South Indians!
Most of the caricatures are against tamil brahmins, its wrong to say that its against all south indians. There is really nothing that you can make fun of against rest of the south indians. They are same as north in every way. Only tamil brahmins are exceptionally different in their views, culture, dressing and attitude. so for most movies, south indian means a tamil brahmin. South indians can't complain about this, because most south indian movies make fun out of brahmins anyway. As long as brahmins keep quite as they usually are, nobody should complain as everyone is guilty as others.
