Here’s how Sri Lankan Tamils reacted after watching 'The Family Man 2'

Although the Tamil Nadu government had demanded a ban on the 'The Family Man 2' series, many Sri Lankan Tamils, who've watched the show felt the thriller didn't really deserve to be shunned.

New Delhi: Those among Sri Lankan Tamils who watched 'The Family Man 2' have one thing to say in unison - “It’s a brilliant fiction thriller”. While some of the viewers did have differences of opinion and disliked some portions, none of them felt that the spy-thriller-drama series deserved a ban. It is notable that Naam Tamilar Katchi in Tamil Nadu and the ruling DMK Government have been demanding a ban, just after watching the trailer. Their demands for a ban continued even after the series released.  Playing the usual “anti-Tamil” card and stating that Eelam Tamils (Lankan Tamils) are portrayed in a highly objectionable manner, these parties sought a ban on the series directed by Indian duo Raj and DK. Many on social media were quick to call for the boycott of actor Samantha Akkineni’s films.
