We describe leading actors / actresses as 'heroes' and 'heroines'. Why? They are just drama artists of a higher order. What do you think?

  Hi guys and girls, this is me again. I wanted to elaborate on this heading a bit. We tend to address these insecure, eogistic bumbling fools as heroes and heroines. Are they in any way heroic? What do they contribute to society? We say ajith is the next Superstar or that Rajni or Kamal is the present? Superstar? Of what?
  
  As for the actresses, most of them dance with no clothes on and then we glorify them and call them heroines and actresses. They are just dancers and ocasional performers.
  
  Any comments on this?

  Posted on lighter note...
  
  Heroine - We describe actresses heroine probably because the word got derived from "Heroin" - the drug, and both does the same act.

  ha ha ha Krishnan. Except for that, I can find anything remotel connected to these b**** acting on screen that would qualify them for the term heroines. As for heroes, they are heroes only on-screen. We should call the soldiers heroes and stop idol-worshipping these idiots who just know to have s** and mouth fancy dialogue and have dupes perform their stunts for them.
