Unlike his other 'green' movies like Satya, Mahanadhi etc. , I remember very little of kalaigyan other than the song 'endhan nenjil neengadha thenral needhana'. Maybe time to take another look at it!Quote:

Nope. Unfortunately his 'karruthu' movies like this, anbesivam etc. don't seem do good in BO. But anybody who've seen them will say they're good movies! This movie carried a neat message and the title and other songs in the movie say it all.Quote:

At the end of the day it depends on as to how much of artistic expression you're ready to forsake for profit. Afterall cinema in one angle is just another business venture. Actually Kamal's quote in the Jaya TV Pattimandram on him wanting to make bengali (Ray) art films commercially viable comes to my mind.Quote:
