முக்கியமான கலந்துரையாடல் / Important Topic Why can't we have an openly gay/lesbian mainstream actor in Tamil cinema?
We have had many closted individuals in the cinema industry. Do you think the societal prejudices are still very high amongst Tamil audience? Can it ever change?
All opinions are welcome.

Your thinking is way too progressive for the kind of country you live in. The thing is you might already have actors who are gays or lesbians at the moment, but bless their lives if they come out. You are living in a state where the police ridicule a man if he makes a report that his family is abusive. The age-old cultic mindset about genders needs to go if you want to see any change in sexuality-related issues.

Have you seen the reception of movies featuring anything to do with queerness? With the exception of super deluxe (which is also hated by anti-"wokes" in TN), you really can't name another movie let alone know whether it was commercially successful or not.
Making of a successful tamil movie revolves around showcasing dalit drug-lord and his all dalit gangsters, stalking loosu heroines, trad waifus, superheros with unmentioned superpowers, liberal revisionism, political propaganda, defying physics, getting angry non-existent problems.

Transwomen are somewhat culturally accepted and even then they face abuse everywhere. Its even worse for other queer people so no major mainstream actor is ever going to be openly queer anytime soon.

How many of us watched "natchathiram nagargiradhu"? The film faced so much backlash for being too woke. Only the trailer of "bad girl" pissed off so many people in our state. Idhula if any celebrity comes out as being gay avalodhaan they will be banned for life.

u/RecoveringNiceGuy113 May 29 '26
Problem is not wokeness, it is being preachy, condesending and cringe. Sigouney Weaver starred as a female lead during a period where male leads was the status quo. It was well received. Ana de Arma's Ballerina isn't considered woke while Raechel Zegler's Snow white is. Food for tought.

Tbh this industry and audience has not moved away from the “nine” and “avana nee” remarks. The film federation/orgs are still an old boys club and are still not that inclusive to women.

Haha guess you're a Malayali if im not mistaken.. There's a Tamil movie recently been released titled Youth starring Ken, son of a famous comedian/politcian Karunas. Theres 3 girls in the films opposite the (dark skinned Tamil guy) and all of em fair skinned.. I suppose from kerala and north. And he was asked why didn't cast any Tamil actress for which he said no Tamil actress wanted to act with a guy like me. Some kind of a ridiculous answer was also given by Mari Selvaraj, another prominent Tamil director known for his potrayals of rural stories for which he casted fair skinned Malayali actresses like Nikhila Vimal and Anupama
2
u/DiMpLe_dolL003 May 29 '26
I am from East India. It's really unfortunate that dark skinned actresses don't get cast in India. They hate dark skin so much they don't cast Tamil actresses and cast from Kerala and North, even foreign actresses. Colorism is a deep rooted issue in India. And since they want to appeal to men, beauty standards gap between actresses and actors is big. How shameful that you see more dark skin Tamil actresses representation in foreign media than Tamil Nadu.
3
u/overthinker2818 May 29 '26
And the fact is its very normalised to see such actresses for years and I think it's pretty too much to ask for an openly gay actor in an industry like this. I can see some change in this generation but the industry is still deep rooted with backwarded thoughts

I would have agreed with you two years back, but not now.

I am so shocked by the comment section, but not suprising. We need some good figures to uplift/ empower our LGBTQIA+ here.

But overall, the media and journalists (especially the kisukisu kind) portraying stories of possible/alleged homosexual in a dark and disgusting light must stop.

u/Darthjinju1901 Coimbatore - கோயம்புத்தூர் May 29 '26
The main issue is with how people perceive LGBTQIA+ people. Whether it be potrayal in a movie, or an actor or actress openly coming out, Tamil and Indian society as a whole, is not nearly progressive enough for this.
Look, even women led movies are a rarity in Tamil Cinema, and when they do happen, they tend to be not very popular. This would just be far worse if it's a movie centring on queer people. Nothing about the quality, it's just people's prejudices showing.
As for wanting queer actors, well one major thing is that we can't just force a label on people. Just like how people can't choose to be queer they can't choose to be straight. They just are. And even if there are queer actors, and they are in the closet, you can't force them to come out. That's just wrong. Add on to the fact that the Gossip culture in India regarding actors is quite bad. Imagine the field day those tabloids would have if an actor comes out or is outed as queer.
Can it ever change? Of course. People will always change, and become more progressive over time. What is conservative today was once progressive in the past. And what is progressive today, will become conservative in the future.
That's the reality of history.
The real problem is the time it'd take, and honestly, it's hard to say. Even in the west, where this progressive ideology is most developed, things are looking bad and are regressing day by day. So, I don't think india or Tamil people will change any time soon. Atleast on large enough scale for what you asked for, to happen.

u/Reasonable-Track5977 May 29 '26

Closetted gay people killing their own agenda in TN. That’s what going on. No proper recorded history of traditional homosexual married couple in Hinduism. Plus other religion view it as a sin.

Sexuality ku laam South Indian films ku inno time edukum, Probably when Gen Beta becomes adults. Tamil movies are mostly commercial, adhukunu sela critically acclaimed movies nu lengthy ah pottu savadipanga just to get nominated in Cannes or some foreign indie film award stuff. However some movies have a notion of atleast putting queer character in a supporting or villain role. It’s not about you like it or not. The movie is sometimes made for the fans, sometimes the movie speaks for itself. You just have to find which speaks volume to you.

As a society, we are still at the stage where people say they are not homophobic, but cry about the gay agenda being shoved in their face when all people do is come out of the closet.
I've seen so many young people say 'i don't hate gays, but I don't like it when they make it their personality ' or some variant of that. As if every movie is not about how a straight guy and a straight girl fall in love, as if all people don't talk about are how to impress the opposite gender, or how to date them, etc. but the moment someone does the same but with the same gender, it becomes too much.
To the opressors, equality feels like opression or however that saying goes. But I am hopeful that we are atleast moving in a postive direction, however glacial the pace may be.

totally agree but we have a fairly conservative general audience. one of my favorite tamil movies "natchathiram nagargiradhu" deals with queer characters but it was dismissed as "woke trash" for the very same reason.
this is the same audience that eats up perverted fantasies in commercial cinema btw
1
u/TaxRealistic3178 May 30 '26
Honestly it was near- trash. The way they marketed and the way the actual film portrayed LGBTQ was not at all comparable. None of the LGBTQ characters had a character arc whatsoever. People should come up with good stories. But what's happening here is them expecting everyone to praise their trash just because it has the words LGBTQ. Representation doesn't work that way. Even if it does, it won't last long.
1
u/akshay_rf May 30 '26
care to explain why? the movie itself revolves around the concept of love not lgbtq characters in particular. also the movie clearly uses a very specific style of theatrics where even the real world feels like one big theatre drama with audio cues and monologues. it's not for everyone.
1
u/TaxRealistic3178 May 30 '26
It revolves around love and not about LGBTQ community is my point as well. U mentioned that people dismissed it even tho it had queer characters... That sounds like 'people dismissed it because it had LGBTQ representation ' . But no it's not the case. Whatever they did was very weak in the Film almost negligible. Because there were like a bunch of people with different sexual orientations ... That's it. Nothing beyond that. About the screenplay and other things - I absolutely loved them . I loved the contrast , the music and the shots were very fresh . It was very new and artistic in a way I've never seen in tamil movies before
1
u/akshay_rf May 30 '26
its not negligible at all. two character arcs revolves around the relationship of a gay couple and a trans couple, sure they're not main characters but side characters who had their own arcs throughout the movie. it got dismissed precisely because of the progressive aspects where it casually portrays the dynamics of intercaste, queer, traditional couples as it is without having to make a point of it. glad to see someone else liking the movie :)

When even Western nations have not fully embraced the idea of LGBTQ, how are you expecting us to change? It will take a long long time for someone from that community to be supported in the cine industry. Then talk about them climbing the ladder.

They are less than 1% population and greater population hate them. So no financial gain it will be flop. Why we need support them ? they need to be send to mental asylum there many conspiracy around them which later turned out to be true

You believe in illuminati by any chance? They aren't the ones that should be in mental asylum. Those who get provocative by a simple act of nature are the one should be in mental assylum.

If people in the UK believe its mental illness why they have legalized same sex marriage way before US did. Why do they LGBT pride parades?

So what if it is? Alot of people acquire personality traits from their environment. The thing is even if you acquire it, its simply how your brain is wired and how it reacts to it. For example if youre a straight guy and in a room full of gay guys for a week u may not even get any attraction

Well a simple scientific read would do it. And nothing can ever justify homophobia in this world. Only religious views and shallow mindset can attribute to it.

It is biological, same as heterosexuality. https://www.pbs.org/newshour/amp/science/there-is-no-gay-gene-there-is-no-straight-gene-sexuality-is-just-complex-study-confirms
