Abstract

The rule of ‘does not change’ in the world is not fixed. Various thought movements under that rule appear every day around the world. It is natural for a variety of ‘songs’ and ‘movements’ to appear and disappear in the wake of crises. They emerge on all platforms when they have a profound impact on people for a period of time. In particular, it manifests itself in various forms in the activities of the educated people, in the arts, in literary works, and so on. Are more evident in literary works than in works and aesthetics. The educated community disseminates the platform of thought in a literary way. Thus, when the racial ideology of ‘Dravidianism’ appeared on an Indian scale it emerged as a symbol of individuality. Its intensity brought about a change in the world thinking after the english accepted and disseminated the notion that the Tamil language and the people who spoke that language were independent and beyond the tradition of Indian aryan thought. Similarly, art and literature in the Indian landscape, especially in the south, became widespread. Had a profound effect on the writing. ‘Dravidian Thought’ is one of the most active thought movements in Tamil Nadu. It has an impact that transcends national sentiments. Dravidian thought was recreated from ancient Tamil sources. Concepts about dravida continued to take shape in the literature of the liberation period. Dravidian ideas can be seen in the objects of film, drama, dance, and literature, and the tendency of the state to seize power. This article highlights the fact that dravidian thought, which emerged half a century ago and took great shape, continues to thrive because it continues to be popular today.
