It doesn’t mean these Tamil films are good and right in there ideas and attitudes since children, woman and other so called low cast individuals are being silence and not fighting against these kind of discrimination and insulting. Unfortunately these individuals don’t have the power to fight against it but not for long time. ________________________________

(March 30, Chennai, Sri Lanka Guardian) I did not see the Sinhala film which is known as 'anti-Tamil' –film “Prabhakaran” and made by Thusara Peiries, and ready for worldwide release on April 25.
However I feel it is my responsibility to write a small not about the action of Tamil fundamentalist who are against the film and asked Tamil Nadu government to ban its Tamil version and also attacked the director in Chennai, India.
These kinds of attitudes and actions by Tamil fundamentalists are not different from the Muslim fundamentalists who are against Salman Rushdie, Taslima Nasrin, and cartoonists.
These Tamil fundamentalist are silence when Tamil Nadu film industry produce and release all kinds of junk films which are against and exploiting children, woman and other so called low cast individuals.
What will happen, if all the children, woman and other so called low cast individuals fight against all these films because it they say that these films are against us and insulting us?

What we need is a stage for dialogues about these different ideas.
Anyone can make any kinds of films according to their ideas as long as there is no violence in it. The individuals who are not agree with others ideas; they can have dialogues by writing or making another film about that film.
This is the creative and constructive way for the development of individuals and their knowledge rather than asking to ban the film and attacking the individuals who have different ideas from us.
Let’s create a platform to discuss different ideas with a humanistic way. (sent by mail)
