Gotcha :-)
GMV's movies have taught me several things, although on the surface the dialogues may seem to have been foisted.
A case in point: Jyothika in Vettayadu Vilayadu goes to the US on H1B, leaving her new born in Chennai with her parents and after taking a bitter divorce from her sadistic husband. Good.
But, all of a sudden she recalls an incident in House of Sand and Fog movie, in which Ben Kingsley commits suicide by tying his face inside a plastic cover. She mentions this dialogue when our Inspector Raghavan overhears the muffled sound from her hotel room and breaks down the door. She profusely thanks him and mentions that she wanted to attempt suicide as depicted in the movie.
All said, I wonder who paid the door bill, and I also was happy that she didn't press charges on Raghavan since it is invasion of privacy in the US to break down others' doors :-)
Even a modicum of logic was missing in that movie :-)
Next Nadunisi Naygal: What's he trying to say ? Utter crass.
And now this :-)

Anbare,
You don't read newspaper? There's lot more worse things happening that cannot be portrayed even in films.
Ok, you didn't like the film and it was not believable. Cool. But blaming societal problems on films is short sighted. These problems have existed since the time immemorial. We humans from all parts of the world have to come up with different moral codes, religion, tribal gods to scare people long before even a proper stage play was put together. People were better in the past is a fantasy and rewriting history.
Not coming down hard on you just putting things in perspective.
PS: Pls put SPOILERS, if you gonna reveal the ending. Others may be still watching film, it is a basic courtesy. (I have not seen the film yet)

For a change a favorable review of the movie which is not so favorable about the music!

Wow. I also attended the function and was fortunate enough to see the GOD in close proximity. Am happy for these youngsters who were blessed by HIS presence!
Being an eternal optimist, I've hopes for BM's movie, although his movies have been most disappointing recently. My 2 cents only and not to offend any of BM's fans :-)
1. Julie Ganapathy: BM copied Misery to the scene, and although IR had shined in the BGM part, his songs didn't become as big a hit as his previous ones with BM. Even Jesudoss sounded jaded in the Minmini paarvaaigal song, and I was furious when I saw the picturization for that song---awful at best.
A low budget movie and BM missed the mark sadly. I wish he'd spent a little bit more and suited it to the Indian taste, rather than imitating the original one.
2. Adhu Oru Kana Kalam: IR's songs were good, although not extraordinary. I'm glad IR didn't produce extraordinary songs since the movie was just real crass--everyone falls in love, and there's no mistake in it. But, how can a cop let a convict elope with a girl since he felt that the person couldn't commit another crime... In any event, another low budget one.
Times have changed, and hence I hope the directors also change themselves to the changing needs of the public. I hope BM spends enough money on the songs to give a flavor to the songs from IR.
IMHO
