Nair is one of the caste in Kerala. All human are same. In that sense, you can not say one caste is forward or other is backward. If you see the Caste System, Nairs are considered as Shudras who comes at the bottom in Hindu varna(color) system. First is Brahmins and then Kshathriyas(Mainly Verma) and then Vaishyas(Who does trace) and then Shudras who work for all the other three groups.

The Mudaliar caste in Tamil Nadu and the Nair caste in Kerala are distinct communities with different historical and cultural backgrounds. While both are considered influential in their respective regions and have similar status as forward castes, they belong to different ethnic and social frameworks. The Mudaliars are primarily associated with landownership and administration, whereas the Nairs have a different social structure, often linked to matrilineal traditions. Thus, while they may share some similarities, they are not equivalent.
