Bharathiraja lashes out at explicit adult Tamil films

Ace director Bharathiraja has condemned the CBFC for allowing adult mainstream Tamil films to release. In his recent statement, the acclaimed director has vented out his feelings.


He said, "People used to say 'Films can bring the whole nation together'. But due to the recent degrading Tamil films, our state has lost its value.


Today, films with double entendres and skin show have dominated socially responsible films. Films which have to be celebrated are seen with no motive. Due to indecent creations, our Tamil film industry's situation is pathetic.


My dear Tamil audience, don't support third rated films, in the name of entertainment and likeability. Boycott those films. An adult Tamil film, which was released recently has totally diverted our Tamil youngsters minds, taking everyone's intelligence for granted. Only because the TFPC goes in support of this kind of films, we see an adult film, with vulgar scenes and title of this sort. Let this be on one side.


What is the Censor Board, appointed by the Central Government doing? Why are you permitting explicitly vulgar films like these? Is this a trick to suppress the Tamil people, who have just woken up to fight for their rights?


To the filmmakers who make films like these, will you take your family to the theatre to watch the film? Can you watch it alongside your family members? There are lots of other ways to earn money. Don't use the film medium.
 

Films are not just for mere entertainment; they are a form of life. All the filmmakers should realize this."
