jaiganes, just chill man :)
I haven't watched "mozhi" but kalki review says it is quite decent. KB excelled in social themes like "edhir neechal", "iru kodugaL", "nizhal nijamagiradhu" and many more. It is relatively easier and safer to direct a movie on every day characters so that audience can connect to them .
Bala's selection of "kadhai kaLam" is unique,no doubt. But does he do justice ? "Pithamagan" had lot of "over the top" scenes. The movie could have done away with unrealistic simran kidnap episode , Laila's childish antics , the over sentimental surya death sequence etc. Laila's character itself was redundant , a complete misfit in that. The problem with these so called off beat movies is that they introduce few unwanted scenes due to commercial compulsions and they some how stand out as sore thumb . Bala has to do a tight rope walk . Reala kamikiren pervazhinnu he cannot also reduce it to a documentary .
piLLaiyar pidikka korangu aagaama irundha seri. But there is no denying that such unique themes can push MDs like IR beyond their creative limits
