how can they not? when he calls other movie makers fools and talks as if he has been god-sent for thamizh makkal.

ok guys, I better

[Beerinkol]

Nov,
According to Cheran ,Movies must reflect the life,culture,social issues of the people of that region .I may not agree with him.

But I respect him since atleast he is the one follow(I mean in making movies) what he preaches.

I remember one group talk which Kumudam arranged with the young directors 2 years before

Cheran, Dharani and few more were chatting. That time Anbe Sivam flopped and Dhool was running successfully.

When they were discussing abt tamil cinema and its way Cheran was saying he felt too bad when a movie like Anbe Sivam flops and Dhool went on to become a big commercial hit. Also he said he is not against Dhool becoming big hit but he was very unhappy with the audience that Anbe Sivam flopped. Dharani was also there in that chat.

I felt it as putting his opinion straight forward.

thirumaran, apparently malaysia is the 2nd home for chEran and he comes here often.

whatever I have said is not hearsay and it came from the horse's mouth.

p/s: i am totally against artistes criticising fellow artistes. it is one thing for fans like us to criticise but absolutely despicable for someone in the industry to desecrate a colleague.

Any soecity or organization will not improve without self-critisism ..He belongs to that industry and he says his opnion to improve it ..what is wrong in it ? Did he abuse anybody personally?

chEran is not about self criticism but about self boosting and putting down others.

Agreed completely. Tamil cinema had so many talented people who never badmouthed others. People who "STEAL" the things from the past should also try to learn other good things from the past as well.

NOV,
1. I know u. Other than interviews in local channels and magazines, there are many other place people talk which many wont come to know. Seems i am one among the many.

2. Me too against this definitely. I am against even if someone says people dont have a good taste if a movie of their choice fails. But i will still go for his movies as long as the end product is good

[tgs]

I agree with NOV. The promos for his last film TT, were all focussed on him. I felt it was way too much, even for a director of great calibre

Why is everyone so obsessed about what Cheran says/does off-screen??
I mean, why Cheran alone?

Exactly, even I was wondering!

Cheran is much much better than other guys, both on and off screen!

I meant in the hub in general, not just this thread.
For e.g if i talk about somebody's inconsistency, deceit and tomfoolery between speaking through films or in public and in concrete actions on the ground, i would be warned not to indulge in personal attacks on the person etc but Cheran seems to be fair game.
