@ sharma. u are wrong, please keep the facts correct. south india has its own oldest tradition called dravidians,its different from aryans in north who migrated from central asia and persia( modern day iran) dravidians( south indians) are the original people of india. infact brahmins originated from south india. and during the culture mix, aryans and dravidians are mixed, now if u take any indian in any part of india, they have both mix of genes m2 halogroup. so any south india will have dravidian gene and aryan gene, and any north indian will have dravidian gene and aryan gene. so its difficult at this point who is migrated where?. at last we are all indians thats all it matters. no need to differentiate us north and south. all south indian actresses are not brahmins infact very few are brahmins @ mishra. if u take vyjantimala ( brahmin iyengar). waheeda( muslim), hema malini( brahmin iyer), rekha( not brahmin), jaya prada( not brahmin), sridevi( not brahmin), aishwarya rai( not brahmin) shilpa shetty( not brahmin) asin( not brahmins) vidya balan( not brahmin), meenakshi sheshadri( brahmin), padmini( brahmin), divya bharati( not brhamin and list goes on most south indian actress are not brahmins and even brahmin ones are dravidians, not entirely aryans.
