Tamil Nadu State Govt has announced the Cine awards for the years 2007 & 2008. This is one best example to show the extent of how Politics has corrupted and crept into everything in this State.
Best actor for the year 2007 goes to Rajinikanth - for the movie "Sivaji" - which was a huge hit but a third rated crap movie as per standards !! Rajini's acting in that movie was far below mediocrity !! The "awards" comedy does not end here - the creaming on the cake is the 'best dialogues' writer award for 2007!! The award goes to.......goes to.... the Chief Minister himself !! CM, Karunanidhi bags the award for the movie "Uliyin Osai" which was a super-dooper flop and the dialogues were widely criticised for being lengthy and boring at the time of its release !!
Ok - let me make a suggestion here. From now on - the State Government awards will NOT be based on performance. It will be quota based. Ruling party supporters & sympathizers (sometimes to the rulers themselves) will get 85% of the awards. 15% of the awards will go to movies based on "Periyar", "Anna", "Karunanidhi" and other such 'stalwarts' of Tamil Nadu -or- movies based on "forward community - especially - Brahmin community bashing" themes. "Performance based awards" ????? - come on, you must be kidding - This is Tamil Nadu, Man !!!

I dont think this is new to our system. All these awards need great lobbying power. Central govt awards too are biased to a great extent. Remember 'AGNEEPATH' awarded best movie, when better movies were in contention.
