Why is there a debate on social media regarding Malayalam pronunciation?

A section of Tamil-Malayalam audience in Kerala and on social media allege that the diction and pronunciation of the Malayalam lines included in the song is not correct. Netizens say that Anirudh and the singers did not present the tone of the words properly, which affected the original meaning and local flavor of the words.

Mixed reaction on Anirudh’s music

Anirudh Ravichander is known for the fusion of different regional languages ​​and folk beats in his songs. Many fans argue that this is a fast-paced commercial mass track, adapted to cinematic needs, so the grammar or harsh pronunciation of the language should not be an issue. At the same time, critics believe that it is important to take care of the correct pronunciation of South Indian languages.

There is a huge buzz at the pan-India level about ‘Jailor 2’ being made under the direction of Nelson Dilip Kumar. ‘Jailor’ had made a historic earning of more than Rs 600 crore at the box office.
