ஜெயிலர் கலெக்சனை இது தாண்டிடுமா? பைரசி வந்து பல நாள் ஆனபிறகும்... இவன் படம் ஹவுஸ் ஃபுல் ஆகுதே?
என் ரசிகர்கள் முகத்துல எப்படி முழிப்பேன்?
அரசியல், சினிமா ரெண்டுலயும் என்னை காலி பண்ணிட்டான்.
பேசாம நான்.. தமிழ்நாட்டை காலி பண்ணிட்டு.. இமயமலைக்கு ஓடிடட்டுமா?
As someone who rather foolishly underestimated the power of youth and social media (in Tamil Nadu) less than three months ago, I believe that the BJP and Modi have lost the plot on the student protests.
First, the cause appears just to almost everyone.
Second, the youth have the ability to bypass mainstream Godi media and get their message across through social media platforms.
Third, there is significant pent up anger against the Govt. already there to tap into.
Fourth and this I see as significant, when they start ridiculing and laughing at you on a mass scale, it is a sign that the end of your stint may not too far off. Earlier, only stand up comics used to do this. Now there are dozens of memes and songs every day from ordinary people/youth.
Fifth, when people decide to vote you out it does not matter who stands against you. Vijay was not voted to power because of his ideology or political prowess. He won because people decided they didn't want the DMK and AIADMK. And he was able to use social media to bypass the local Daddy media. So this, "there is no alternative" will not wash.
Will the Modi Govt overcome this protest? Of course it will. It has all the powers at its command and will not hesitate to use them. It is certainly not the end of the road for Modi.
But it may just be the beginning of the end. #Studentprotest
How is it there are cameras to conveniently capture each Minister crying? From morning I have seen at least 4 or 5 videos of different Ministers crying while watching the movie. Looks scripted for sure. 🤦🤦 #Jananayagan
