@ Deepak
“Malayalees are people who used to read widely and more sensible.”
I used past tense to compare my father’s generation with mine. See obviously I am literate but insensible

Education has nothign to do with respectinig other human beings. If you have been to kerala you will find some of rudest of people there

When one is more educated, he/she knows how to commit a crime without being caught legally. For the same reasons Shakeela movie makers thrived.

@ gen12
Malayalam movie industry started to make Shakeela and Reshma (both from Andhra) famous by making movies with them, while Telugu industry used them only behind the scenes LOL

@ Deepak and @ gen12
What ever I expresses here is of my own opinon and has nothing to do with Malayalees across the globe. Each one has his/her own opinin and freedom to express it. I did it here!

why do want glossy songs in the film? i only want sincere, realistic and more variety of films. I dont think song as anything to do with films. songs can develop on its own..let them make albums and release it with glossy videos..micheal jackson has not sung in any movies i think…

It is time for Agni sharman to swallow his own words. He claims his clan is literate , sensible and blah blah ….. but by his own admission, they love only shakeela and reshma. That is the “best” these “literate, sensible” people could produce and watch. you should have explored the malayalees penchat for vulgarity and indecency instead of pretending to be a smart ass.

who said Telugu and Tamil movies make only visually stunning…complete entertainment.

they do make meaningful cinema…which are completely logical.

telugu and tamil cinema has all kinds of movies i.e MASS MASALA type,suspense thrillers(now many telugu movies r cming with these type)

MALAYAM cinema should also try every thing…making arty type of movies is not favour of this generation….those days r gone long back.

now commercial cinema rulzz

malayalam cinema have very good stories but the major entertainment value is missing.

For Tamil/Telugu movies Kerala means some extra income and so support from a section of audience is enough. Glossy songs and skin show will get that section.

But for a malayalam movie to be successful it need to attract multiple sections. MasalaAudience, Youngsters, Class and Family.

When a movie like Classmates attract Youngsters and family it succeeds. So does Mass+Family in Mayavi/Hello.

The debate is not if glossy pictures are required (Answer: yes), the debate is if glossy pictures will run well in Malayalam (Answer: No). Lajjavathiye definitely helped that movie, but after that how many movies have been pulled up by glossy songs? For Tamil & dubbed Telugu movies, it seems to be a different set of rules.
