Recently, in his website blog, the writer Jeyamohan made an editorial on modern cinema. He has clearly stated that he does not criticize it. He has said that, according to his view, cinema is not art or propaganda; it's purely business. That has emphasized that one businessman should not harm another's business, an inner norm.
He mentioned “ Yesterday morning, amidst the cheers and praises of hail, I was able to watch the Malayalam film "Manjnummal Boys." It is undoubtedly very important for North Indian publications in Tamil to consistently praise Malayalam cinema. But realities are always less valued amidst perfectionism.
Manjnummal Boys provoked a question about how these films would behave if released in Tamil. Even though it was released amidst great fanfare in Kerala, the villagers could not relate themselves to the significance of the "heroic" area. The portrayal of reality differs from region to region.
While "entertainment" is one classification associated with films, the conduct and behavior of people in films often represent society. Manjnummal Boys are indeed reflecting the sad truth of drunkard hysteria common among Kerala tourists. The conduct depicted in the film is not far from observations of drunk Malayalis creating disturbances in tourist spots.
Moreover, the scenes of police interaction with them reflected reality, as in real life, with language barriers, generally there is a misunderstanding and a scene of tiff. The complaint in the movie related to road rage and bad behavior during marriages has been turned into a broader issue in society.
While in these respects, Tamil Nadu seems to hold up the mirror image of Kerala, Rahul says there is a bit of a difference in their visuals. Kerala's films glamorously portray issues of drinking and violence, contrasting sharply with Tamil Nadu's strict stance.”
In this general background, Jeyamohan factually states how film shows social issues and what people have actually done massively in life, enthusing conversational topics of real-life issues and representing social values.
