Tragedy...

is best explained in Tamil movies. The format is simple, hero is a happy-go-lucky, simple, mischievous, funny (or tries to be), loafer dude until a life changing tragic episode for self/family/friend turns him to a man with a mission who finally succeeds, not before lecturing bad guys with bunch of punch dialogues on values,morality etc. etc.
The headache is often increased with mindless songs, comedy (more messaging again!), some pointless senti-minti side story with no meaning except to irritate viewers further. Phew! No story seems complete without a tragedy!
Try this simple test if you don't believe me.... watch any channel for a sequence of 6-8 'hit' songs. It took me 4 to write this blog.
