Having been homebound for sometime now and with enough clutter in the TV channels,watching movies suddenly has became very appealing. But I have to confess that am no longer in the rampant watch-any-movie age where I could digest anything from a Saajan to a Hero No 1 but clearly not also yet there to enjoy a Satyajit Ray or Pedro Almodvar movie.Anyways its regional cinema that I am talking here. All this movie watching started with me giving company to my mom and she restricts her staple of movies to only Tamil and Malayalam films. After a point of time comparison was just bound to follow... Best things first - Malayalam films are quite a revelation. From being funny,melancholic, enchanting, tragic, uplifting to plainly being entertaining the range and depth of malayalam films has simply awed me. And am not even talking here of the well-known, superhit mad capers of Mohanlal or Mamooty that the outside world knows of. Let me confess I dont even understand the language completely....

My kid fears people who are drunk on the street, eunuchs and men with beard ? Can i recomend killing them.
Your fear of the animal is personal to you and it is because of your conditioning. We cant blame the animal for it.
Man and animals have always crossed paths since time immemorial. Stray incident have happenend. Recently in kerala a mahout was lkilled by the elephant. Is the solution to kill the elephant justified ?
We hv taken the easy approach of eliminating the animals from our path. See where we are today. Human greed has ensured that we are living in a lonely planet where the most dangerous animal is US. Most killings thesedays are people driven. Can we now start eliminating US.
As for your child fearing bearded men, I would say your argument is flawed. Its not about baseless fears but about children who have actually been attacked and killed by a pack of strays.
Why isn't anyone thinking about the parents who lost their little son?
Invading human space...do we own the entire planet ? What is the limit of our boundary. What %age of land have ewe left for the animals.
Noah must be turning in his grave. he bouth all animals to live with humans.
Honestly am not advocating the culling of these stray dogs, but for any viable alternative it seems to be the only option.
Or do we ignore the whole problem since its just a child, once in a while?
ABC (Animal Birth Control) is definitely a humane and civilised way of tacking this issue.
This has to be coupled with certain basic civic behaviour (which we utterly lack in India).
Have you observed where and how the strays feed themselves. Remember to survive they need food. And this food is provided to them by us. We dump garbage int he open.
I find so many int he neighbourhood feeding the strays. I am not against this, but take additional responsibility of getting them neutered and vaccinate them.
My sympathies lie with the parents of the child , there is no doubt on that. But a knee jerk reaciton wont take us to the solution.
