Actually being a keralian as well as a local resident of bengal n a colossal fan of both bollywood malayam movies, i feel the nuances, emotions and the dialects of both hindi n malayalam audience r different. A certain dialogue which may be a deeply rooted sentiment of mallu audience may not have tht lasting effect with a hindi audience.. Thts d reason a subtle class movie like 'thondimudalum drikshashiyum' wont win the hearts of a hindi audience as it did for the south industry...
