Answer 2

Explanation:

Periyar railed against Brahmin domination and sought to mobilize the oppressed castes into a political collective into the identity of Dravidian as against the Aryans who included the North Indians and south Indian Brahmins who were together seen as the principal nemesis of the emancipation of the oppressed castes. To hammer home his point of Aryan hegemony and Dravidian subjugation, Periyar scorned religion and propagated atheism. His cultural movement gained huge support among humble Tamils in what was then Madras presidency and crystallised into a potent political force in the wake of independence in the form of the Dravida Munnetra Kazhagam (DMK). A Kannadiga by birth, Periyar articulated his ideas in his characteristically sardonic Tamil and the Dravidian ideology has dominated Tamil Nadu’s cultural and political life ever since.

It is in this lens that the Karuppar Koottam’s penchant for ridiculing long-standing religious beliefs must be seen.
