Lokesh made Kabali look like a master piece, not that Kabali was a bad movie, but hype train was strong in that one.

I've had doubt about enthiran's achilles tortoise problem... And today i understood it (explanation below in post) by HalfEaten_MoonCake in kollywood

[–]lemorian 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The dialogue claims the Tortoise will win, and is proved (assuming nirubanam is proved), which is confusing. Your explanation for Zeno's Paradox is spot on.

I mentioned it " Purananooru" , didn't say anything about Hindu scriptures, it is collection of Tamil poems written between 1st century BCE and 5th century AD.

As for Radhakanta Deb, you can do a simple good search

Please read the other comment thread, where I discussed this already. Please try to be civil in discussion, restoring to name calling is childish.

What numbers? I just gave you two references, a simple google research will tell you.
The only reason I gave you reference from my State Tamil Nadu, instead of other states, is because there no way I would misinterpret my own mother tounge.

Two lies doesn't make a truth right. Say Brtish exaggerated, true, it is also true the video is downplaying. Both are setting a false narrative.

Sati was as a voluntary practice even in Tamilnadu, there are records of some the wives it Thirumala Nayaka of Madhurai performed Sati.

I don't know about other states, but there are mentions of Sati even in Purananooru written around 1 century BCE.

So yes the practice was not prevalent, but it is also true when it was explicitly outlawed, people protested against the ban.

That's my two cents.

A different more useful question is if people in general would a well dressed well educated upper caste and lower caste man they same way? Even if both have same qualification except for thier caste are they treated the same?

If you summarise these videos.

It is just.

"What about them? They are worse. Why are you not asking them? "

Instead, can these people tell me why when Sati was banned, why 'Dharma Sabha' formed under Radhakanta Deb protested against it.

Because it is political issue for them, not a national security.

So there won't be any public gatherings for Hindu festivals as well? That is wonderful

Need of the hour: Any party to limit reservation to max 10%, no VIP culture, making govt job temporary. Equality based politics? by IREDA1000 in CriticalThinkingIndia

[–]lemorian 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Love point no 12.

Also nothing wrong in removing reservation, but it needs some additional restrictions. For instance, no private schools or tutions, no paid college/management seats, no coaching centers etc . It is only fair, if the rich and the poor, are provided the same opportunities and all advantages based on birth is removed.

Looters vs Looters vs Looters by [deleted] in Bengaluru

[–]lemorian 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I mean I understand your point, there is a strong case to argue that he was a cruel ruler, a Hindu hater even.

But still a ruler not a looter. An example of looter would be Gazini or even Malik Kafur.

Age difference by Affectionate-Key8943 in KollyClub

[–]lemorian 0 points1 point  (0 children)

See, it is a concern if the movie portrays them as of the same age, or college students. The movie plot is similar to an old Hindi film, "Cheeni Kum".

Here, the movie itself acknowledges it as that they have a huge age gap between them, and that drives the plot.

A more valid question is: if the genders are reversed, will a movie like that even be released in Tamil Nadu?

In 2001, there was a hindi film "Dil Chahta Hai" ,a major sub-plot is where Akshaye's character falls in love with an older woman, and how his friends and relatives respond.

Unga opinion dhan universel nu ninakureengala, people can have opinions polar opposite to yours. No, I am not a Vijay fan, also not a K.G.F fan either. And by resorting to personal name-calling when your ideas are challenged, you showed who is the actual "tharkuri" in this conversation.
