The underlying issue is the unspoken racism of the Aryan north and some South Indian (who have invented an Aryan past for themselves), against the dravidian south in general. If you read the Ramayana carefully, its just a book on how the Aryan North went to war against the dravidian south. Look at the subtle racism here, an army of monkeys from the forest in the south help an aryan invader to defeat a dravidian army. The Ram/Sita story was later invented to justify to the uneducated mass- the domination of the Aryan over the south and the war. Come on it the 21st century, the mass is educated now. We are hindus, but some stories that is associated with the Hindus in the North has to be re-looked at.
