    It didn’t solely take Valmiki Ramayana as the reference. Considered several other ones

    I precisely don't have any complaint against the ideas portrayed in the book. It is okay okay. I like the concept of an epic's underlying agenda of defaming a particular class, caste, creed, or a locality's people. Yeah. Dravidian's are at a disadvantage in the epic, agreed. But the other arguments which talked largely, but quite redundantly, about the character of the protagonist and his people of the epic is boring. But I know Periyar enough not to go with prejudice of him being ignorant or something. I just think he was aiming for the most normal of the audience that were there: people who blindly believed all that's told. May be he's trying to root out Ramayana from the Tamil land (for it was for them it was written), and for that, simply saying, "Don't worship a North Indian," wouldn't suffice, and the whole basis of the belief, that is, the morality of the epic, should be blemished. And to that end, he tried the best. And he did quite good, I should agree. But, that's it.
