-Tami people are not queuing up to watch Hindi movies.
-Still the best music director is doing music in Tamil for Tamil people and he shall do in Hindi for Hindi people...brrra obvious?
-The same music director spoke in Tamil when he won Oscar not in Hindi.
-Now about Vellore..it's my hometown and ironic now you just dragged it into discussion. why talk about Bengal when we arguing about Hindi? Begalis are not jumping to impose Bengali or to make it national language.
-If some Hindi movie critic is Tamil then even I can name whole bunch of other language speaking Tamil movie critics...
This is the very exact thing we don't want to hear. You want us to speak in Hindi just because we have to communicate with you?
What's special about you?
eventually Hindi can't and won't be national language and Chennai will always speak in Tamil.
Are we not chasing shadows here?
Hindi is not the national language, it is just the most widely spoken language both in terms of native speakers as well as non native speakers.
There is not one individual here who has talked about imposing any language on anyone else.
Yes, you don't have to learn Hindi if we have to communicate with you or vice versa.
It is great that every Indian takes pride in his native language and culture and also appreciates the culture of the rest of the Indians. There are many commonalities especially those coming from the shared Dharma.
Though it would help if all of us don't take the pride too far and become chauvinists.
Depends on how you define Aryans(, there certainly is no evidence for the whole of the Indo-European family having migrated from India. Also the linguistic case remains formidable. While it is an interesting hypothesis, that unfortunately is all it is. It is easier to blow holes in the conventional AIT than it is to offer an alternate hypothesis backed by evidence.
If at all there was a migration (in any direction), it won't be of people wholesale taking over new lands and displacing people. Primarily it was a movement of culture and languages and many Aryans became totally a part of their new lands and lost their own language and culture in short order.
Some key examples being the earliest datable Aryan records. They are found in West Asia for the Kassites, Hittites and the Mitannis. These people were clearly outsiders, they spoke Indo Aryan languages and they can be linked only to India as the records clearly indicate references to Surya, Marut, Indra, Bhaga etc.
They could not have come from anywhere else. Anyway, this topic still needs much more scholarship that is not motivated by a need to prove something that has already been decided (Aryan invasion in 1500 BC) and spin the evidence around it.
Not too many and his was an honest effort.
OK, I have seen some of these (honest?) mistakes in translation being used by motivated people endlessly.
