Khan Saheb Kamal Haasan's Jamaat/Jeba Koottam/Devasthaanam - Part 8

App, wrt to Kamal's ghost direction and he giving credit, for the movies he had written, its not necessary. Thevar Magan, Bharathan gave some some contribution but they are minor. Also, there is no way bharathan wud have been well versed with the operation of the Deep south Thevar community and their violence machinery. For Naayagan, not Kamal, but Mani himself had agreed many times that Kamal had enormously contributed to its script.

ada, ada...enna oru judgement :-)

Keep heaping more "praises" for all those hapless directors who did movies with KH! rasigar'nA ippadi allavA irukkanum!

BTW, did I ever say KH contributed nothing (other than acting) for those movies?

Well, Thamizharasan has brought in a "new spec / requirement" for a director - that he SHOULD HAVE penned the screenplay. Otherwise, he cannot be called director but fit only for the term jada iyakkunar.

innum mElE mElE sollunga, kEttukkaREn :-)

இயக்கம் என்பது பாத்திரங்கள் எப்படி வசனங்களை ஏற்ற இறக்கத்துடன் நடிக்கணும் என்பதுடன் முடிந்து போய்டுமா?

It is good to know that you translate everyone else writing in a way you want it. Did I say that it is must for director to write screenplay. Convenient translation. Anyway why don't you explain what is direction first and then we will talk about it. Because you always says SB is not a proxy then on what basis did you decide that from this movies. Atleast I had a chance to read Mahandhi's screenplay. I don't think any one else would have appreciated SB's interview except for you.

Two reasons :

1. SB had worked as assistant to the legendary Sridhar and then started with panneer pushpangaL which was good ; has also done other non-KH movies that were decent (one of them was actually produced by KH himself, kadamai kaNNiyam kattuppAdu)

2. IMO, as a true artist, KH himself won't want to take credit / debit for others' work, while being a whole-hearted team player. That's why SB is allowed to be in the title credits as director. (Not accepting / questioning that is same as questioning the honesty / integrity of KH).

Like MGR, KH involves in many aspects of the movie making - including music making for e.g.

Can we also call him "music director" for Guna, because we hear him call the shots in the cassette? (rAsA veRum tune pOttu & notation ezhudhi instrumentalistkaLai kai kAl Atta vaiththAr dhAnE?)

Very sound arguments. Nothing to discuss.

App, neenga kooda crappy arguments post pannuveengannu therinjikitten :lol:

Kadamai Kanniyam Kattuppaadi is a mallu remake. Other 2 films SB did, which icould recall, both are Prabhu films. One is Viyatnaam Veedu and another one is a Koodu vittu Koodu paayum story. Both had backing from crazy mohan dialogs. Both had Goundamani too. The point is, the general public never spoke anything high about his works.

Ur guna analogy, did KH compose tune?!? Involve aanaarunnu solreengaLe, did KH ask Raja to sit aside and took over the harmonium?!? KH involve in many areas, but he dont take over those areas. He will tell the requirement. THen he may ask for corrections/suggestions/modifications. Ithai, ippa uLLA pala directors kooda seyurathu thaane industry norm?
