vvvslaxman Posted June 2, 2012 Posted June 2, 2012 Vidya balan is Mallu but speaks Tamil at home:P palghat tamil iyer right? like Trisha though trisha mainly grew up in US.
Prakat Posted June 2, 2012 Author Posted June 2, 2012 Dude, don't tell me that Katrina Kaif can act. :winky: That's the level we are talking here. BTW, some on this board think even Aish can't act. Neither Kat nor kareena can act. But as stand-ins for a northie girl they are not out of place.
nikred Posted June 2, 2012 Posted June 2, 2012 Neither Kat nor kareena can act. But as stand-ins for a northie girl they are not out of place. So what you are saying is these northie actresses look out of place "acting" as southies, right?
Prakat Posted June 2, 2012 Author Posted June 2, 2012 So what you are saying is these northie actresses look out of place "acting" as southies' date=' right?[/quote'] I'm asking doesn't a southie find it strange to see northie actresses being passed off for southie girls in the movies? mattel makes black-haired, doe-eyed versions of Barbie to cater to the Indian market. Filling shelves with blonde, blue-eyed dolls in India would amount to cultural insensitivity and an attempt at imposing western ideals of femininity and beauty on India. What these movies do is the same but only the people doing it are themselves. Why?
akshayxyz Posted June 2, 2012 Posted June 2, 2012 Revenge of the southies. (you wont take southie heroines, and they will take all your northie heroines)
The Dark Horse Posted June 2, 2012 Posted June 2, 2012 palghat tamil iyer right? like Trisha though trisha mainly grew up in US. I think so...

What these movies do is the same but only the people doing it are themselves. Why? This. And if there are more & more of them being imported and accepted by viewers, then it only means that malyalee/telugu/tamil cinema is giving preference to skin-depth/superficiality over so called more classy/skilled local/southie actresses.
The Dark Horse Posted June 2, 2012 Posted June 2, 2012 Its true that the industries and most viewers like to see fair skinned women.
ganeshran Posted June 2, 2012 Posted June 2, 2012 audiences want fair and pretty women, regardless of whether the demand is fulfilled by southie or northie heroines.
bangladeshifan Posted June 2, 2012 Posted June 2, 2012 In south though actresses like Kajal Agarwal' date=' Tamanna Bhatia who know jack sh** about acting survive merely through exposing worse than item girls. Drop of the hat pallu will come off. Tamanna is worse in that department.[/quote'] r u trying to say kajal agarwal knows jack sh!t abt acting and survives through exposing body? :haha::haha::finger::thefinger:
Stuge Posted June 2, 2012 Posted June 2, 2012 audiences want fair and pretty women' date=' regardless of whether the demand is fulfilled by southie or northie heroines.[/quote'] In four words : Audiences want HOT CHICKS :giggle:

Filling shelves with blonde, blue-eyed dolls in India would amount to cultural insensitivity and an attempt at imposing western ideals of femininity and beauty on India. What these movies do is the same but only the people doing it are themselves. Why? Pravinbhai - there is no such thing as a blue eyed northie girl afaic. Somebody like Tapsee can pass off as a southie girl because there ARE southie girls as pretty/whiet whatever as her.
