India is my country.

When a group of people are called together to discuss a common problem, an agenda would be a wise decision. The moderator of the group would be wise in getting the points beforehand to ensure that the 'dough is smooth'.
But what happened in the grand ensemble of kollywood stars for the 'hoganekkal issue' was exactly the other way.
From unknown actors to well-known actors, everyone had their chance with the 'mike' and anyone could say anything !
We had a few people trying to maintain 'secularism' , a few people going over the top with remarks which would probably end only in more violence and a few people trying to establish their 'tamil identity'.
When satyaraj vented his anger, all rumours over his 'verbal' denial of the villain's role for a rajni film seemed true. His speech this day appeared to be a volcanic eruption of his agony that he could'nt outsmart the 'badshah' of tamil cinema.
Rajni's position was and always has been difficult. But this man definitely seems to be goodish in nature. You feel sorry for him whenever he is attacked verbally by people. Have one look at his face and then you realise.
I happened to read this in another blog. When satyaraj mentioned and bragged about MGR's not touching a drop of water in a kannadiga's house; he probably forgot that all food needs water to be made. All this is unwanted speech.
Well, onething is sure. satyaraj's next movie will run well if he capitalises on this issue in that movie.
If only things were organised and people clearly spell out what they exactly need to target it would have served a good purpose.
Everyone in the scorching sun knew that this whole hogenakkal issue is because we have elections coming shortly in karnataka.
So this was'nt a big deal really. People use such meetings to lash out at each other and this look silly to people who understand the background of such events.
So what was all this issue about ? Water which rightfully belongs to tamilnadu is not given to them. Water schemes are not allowed to be developed. Politically, tamil cinema and tamil channels are targetted in Karnataka. You dont have any kannada movies running in tamilnadu otherwise even tamil groups would have given similiar replies in retaliation. So this is no big deal.
Tamils living in karnataka and kannadigas living in tamilnadu are the only unfortunate victims in this political drama. Wake up India !
