Sometimes you cannot ignore talent! For years many bollywood fanatics, farted around saying that ARR was repetitive! Just like they say things about KamalHaasan too. But ARR beat them in their own game-even if you ignore his Tamil compositions which are far superior to his hindi ones, you cannot ignore his genius! Rajni although he goes beyond language barrier is still doing only Tamil films. All of his best works are in Tamil/Telugu and not some lousy roles he did in Amitabh's shadow in hindi (it's a mistake he acknowledges) And that is something a north indian will never digest. According to North Indian fanatics (I refer to those who are fanatics) MS.Subbulakshmi is great only when she sings Meera Bhajans and not when she sings Annamacharya or Bhaja Govindam, Kamal is a good only when he does Chachi 420 and not when he does Anbey Sivam or Panchathanthram, SP Bala is good only when he sings for Salman Khan and not when he scales new peaks even after 30 years in Telugu, Tamil or Kannada, ARR is similarly best even if he does a mediocre RD Basanti and not when he does Jillendru Oru Kaadhal! Bottom line is according to hindi fanatics it is patriotic and Indian only if it is in hindi. Whether they love hindi that much or not they will use it as a stick to beat south indians always!
