[Arvind Srinivasan]

my age old grievance..he loves insulting hindu belief and sentiments. now all hubbers seems to have become acclimatized to that banishing, so i too joined the party

The best way to judge would be to look at the context. Making a retired army major spew poetry with sarcasm ridden rants on religion would be just an attempt at inviting trouble. Though I enjoyed it, I found it to be very obtrusive . It should have been done away with right at the drawing board. But in Uttama Villain, it's about Hiranyakasipu. Ithuve Bhaktha Prahladanla Ranga Rao " Venkkam Getta Pandriyum Thaan thaan endravanaa Kadavul" soliruntha, applause kuduthirupom. I am a Vaishnavite myself but that doesn't stop me from objectively looking at things. As a matter of fact, the iraniya naadagam is one of the few versions that spells out the tale from Hiranyan's perspective.
