There is no denying we cannot live without India on the South.We got almost everything from them but now China has moved in too. Remember we DO NOT get them for free. Keep in mind we pay. They have as much to gain from us, of course we have more, agreed. But there is absolutely no need to hate the Indians for that, as some here has done. Like someone pointed out why not learn the good quality from them than to waste time watching movies, each 3 hours or more, of theirs, millions of them. We (at least my generation) grew up watching few movies a week, some of my buddy watched 2 in a day. That is 6 hours of our time being wasted. Can you imagine if we put those hours to volunteer (a foreign concept in out culture of course) for something like to pick up trash in your neighbourhood, social work at school, library and other charity. Everybody makes mistake like my generations, what we can do is spread the knowledge that is was wrong. Is that wrong?I'm not saying we should boycott Hindi movies, instead put the youth for some productive work. Of course it needs a radical change in our values and culture.

We have always depended on India since the beginning and we payed money for those goods. Does that mean we should eat their garbage?

India is where they are now because of words like "Be Indian and Buy Indian" started by a smart leader. Why not we initiate something like that, not out of disrespect to them. We DO need the rice and the petrol from them to survive, no denying that, but we'll not starve or die if we limit how much our kids get exposed to their garbage (come on, most of them are). Bottom line, no matter what we say, our youth and even adults waste so much of time and energy watching Indian movies. We can prove it with statistics. There is nothing wrong to divert those energy for something else.

My 2 cents.
