In response to Pannvalan's note, my answer would be perhaps so. Vaishnavism, especially the version promoted by the Azhwars and later by Ramanuja, prided itself in its arguments favoring faith in a Personal God over superstition and ritualism. It also suggested the idea that Brahma-jnanam was available to all, an idea furthered by the fact that the Azhwars themselves came from different castes.

I think the fact that the messages of Vaishnavam speak to a largely Tamizh-based demographic would substantiate the Hindu's support of the school.
