Sanskrit vs Tamil: The Language War (1856–2025) | Harry Sahota

توضیحات:

This documentary explores the 169‑year cultural conflict between Sanskrit and Tamil, tracing how colonial manipulation and modern politics turned these ancient languages into tools of division. It examines the Dravidian‑Aryan debate, Sanskrit inscriptions in South Indian temples, the rise of anti‑Sanskrit movements in the early 20th century, and colonial propaganda that framed a North‑South narrative. The film also looks at Tamil‑Vedic harmony through works like Kamban Ramayanam and the Chola Empire, while questioning long‑held assumptions about Indian history with insights from DNA and archaeology.
