Recently,khusboo was in malaysia for the launch of IntenationalTamil Film Awards.When asked about the controversy caused by boys, she felt the detractors of boys were unfair..
'These people are bunch of hypocrites.They do far worse things but keep them confined within the four walls of their bedroom and homes.I've known people,mothers at that,who have gone and seen the film with their daughters.One family saw the film three times and they thoroughly enjoyed the film.Most women have an open mind and i'm sure the movie will have a good run(agreed).I don't find anything wrong with boys.It's a simple story of boys growing up and it captures the experience they go through.There's no sexploitation to make a quick buck.If shankar wanted to make a sex movie ,he could have made it for a few lakhs.There's no need to spend crores and take huge risk'..(concluded)

Finally there is a sane person in tamil nadu..I agree on what khusboo said..I still feel that boys is a sincere effort from shankar without any bad intentions..Anyway,for ur info,boys is the top movie for 2003 in malaysia.It rejuvenated cinemas in malaysia..distributors made money..and an interesting fact..girls are enjoying the movie compared to guys..

Boys haters,any comments??

  Good that Malaysians like that movie..
  
  But we, the Indians of the Mainland dont like because the 'culture' you enjoy, which is not common in India now,
  is wrongly depicted as the common behaviour of youth, We are seriusly afraid of the culture you enjoy..
  
  Kushboo is great 'Family women'.. The family which enjoyed seeing Boys three times are none other than Vineetha family..
  
  Good People to tell and Great people to clap...

  The Great Indian Culture?.Raping of Dalit women.Inter caste murders.Setting fire to daughter in laws for not bringing dowry.The most atrocious crimes both physical and emotionally are committed by indians daily in India.These sort of brutal and vicious behaviour are a rarity in the western world.We may like sex more but is that a big crime.What is this great indian culture you are talking about.Get a life man.

  "The most atrocious crimes both physical and emotionally are committed by indians daily in India"
  
  Ha Ha Ha, i laugh outside but feel sad inside, bcos, the above statement is TRUE.
  
  Then about boys, there are many movies which i wonder how it wasnt removed by sencor, compared to that, boys is not a full length "A" class movie, juz it has some thing in 1st half, and i dont feel wrong, people who oppose this film, where did they go before??????? Can i point out more vulgar in previous films?

  If this movie had been directed by a Selvaraghavan,Selvamani or Selvaa ,this sort of controversy would not have aroused , but since this came from a director who created an impression of dealing with "samooga seerthirutha stories" and being a settled director...all these controversies.

  i ve not seen the movie but few clippings of girlfriend song in which
  boys touching female private parts and peeping onto cleavage ..all these stuff are not unusual but could have been shown in a more decent way.
  all these will only motivate the movie watching 'boys' to try it..

  என்னை பொருத்தவரை குஷ்பூ சொல்லுவது 100% சரி. பாய்ஸ் படத்தை பற்றி குற்றம் சாட்டுபவர்களுக்கு ஒரு கேள்வி? நீங்கள் எல்லாம் சுயமாக நியமிக்கப்பட்ட அறநெறி காவலர்களா(self appointed moral police)?
