Appavum, Ammavum (Parents)

I was recently watching 2 tamil movies. 1) Varanam Aayiram and 2) Abhiyum Naanum
Both were potraying a Father-son and a Father-Daughter relationship from birth. That is when, I was thinking about the fast paced life in India now and gone are the days where mom/dad were living in the same house with their sons, Atleast for the most. India is built on Joint family structure and it is slowly breaking down. I am not going to argue that it is bad or good for our culture. At the least, these 2 movies will make sons and daughters think about their father's and mother's sacrifice. These 2 movies should change the current generation's mindset and they should spend some time with their Parents during festivals or try to maintain a Quasi-Joint-Family.
I have lot of theories about US culture and their behaviour at work life and Indian culture and our behaviour at work life, Thatz for another blog.
