cinema..cinema..cinema

It is a well known fact that the Tamil and telugu Film industry has been thriving so well due to the film fanatic public in the southern parts of India.These 2 entities have probably sucked out money like a leech all through the years from its ardent aficianados,who dont hesitate to watch a movie paying around half a day's earnings or even the entirety of their pocket money.Yeah!I myself knew of many of my fellow college mates who used to spend around 100 to 200 rupees a week on movie tickets.But the unbelievavble fact is that both these cinema industries whine time and again about the lack of funds and failure in box-office hits leading to some producer's suicide or distributor's disappearance.I feel the directors and the actors(the term encompasses the actresses too)should be made liable to the movie's failure.They should be paid based upon the collection that it gets.Anyway lets leave that issue.My point was something different,when I started to blog.
Well,I somehow feel all these years cinema has ripped us off some significant amount of money.Now its kind of payback time.That is being taken care of by the ever-increasing breed of M.S students in the U.S...Not a single movie is left unwatched and almost every movie gets downloaded,thanks to the innumeroul peer-to-peer file sharing(read as file stealing) hubs available.Although this is akin to the 'thirutu VCD' type of illegal watching of movies,this is not being given much of attention because it is beyond the understanding of the tamil film industry people and its operations are strewn all over the virtual internet world.
The last few months have been an entirely gruelling time for many M.S students.There are a lot of movies in the queue but not enough time to watch all of them.But then the sheer perseverence of the mind to endure through any kind of boring movie has made everyone watch almost most of them.The height of all records is the latest kamal movie.It was released around a week ago and this 'puppy' is already sitting pretty in my friend's laptop ready to be watched anytime today.
This might seem too wierd to hear someone expressing pride in having performed an illegal act,but then the movie makers don't deserve all that money they have been getting.
Anyway..Indian movies..Here we come to watchya'll.
