I hate KB movies for his introduction of filthy concepts and disgusting relationships

[Hulkster]

KB's movies brought out the reality that was happening in life...that is the exploitation of women and the many relationships that they usually get in. Somemore he created a trend for portraying human emotions in such scripts. Good movies are not movies that are always aimed at making people happy..rather movies which highlight reality packed in a different script is what makes them good...and in that case KB is certainly a imayam.
