Thanks to Venkiram. He deserves the credit for bringing up a very valid point 'against' the movie.Quote:

Perhaps the most pessimistic movie I've ever watched was 'thulA bAram' (the AVM Rajan / Saradha remake of a movie that is considered classic by both Keralites & TN-ers from 60's / 70's, the one with that 'kARRinilE perungARRinilE' song).
Compared to that, mahAnadhi is not that tragic / pessimistic :-)
If one looks at the 'pessimistic' thingy, there are many movies like that. Take mayilu's case, for e.g.
-loves a man who cheats her and walks away
-mother dies leaving her to a chappAni to take care
-chappAni (after rekindling love in her) goes to jail
traditional method for movie makers to get people cry for their fav character...
Personally, IMO (though no one cares for it), mahAnadhi had some great scenes but overall a disappointment.
Like I mentioned earlier, the jail scenes / Kolkota / kanavil alaRal are awesome from TF perspective. Matched or exceeded many of the "best old TF / 80's MF scenes" I've seen as well.
I grew up in an environment that most of the time "glorified" jail life. (sekkizhuththa semmal, Gandhi / Nehru / thalaivarkaL siRai vAsam etc). Even when people talked about criminals going to jail, it was more for 'correction', with kaLi thinnal etc.
Until I read a Sujatha story as a teen where he talked about the horrors of jail (forced homo etc), I didn't have any idea of how it was a great place for hardcore criminals / criminals becoming more hardened etc :shock: That way, no movie in TF (per my knowledge) showed some of the jail realities before, in such a shocking way! :thumbsup:
Same thing w.r.t. chitfund mOsadi & the impact :thumbsup:
Human trafficking - the worst crime that shocked me the most when I first heard about - is highlighted in a frightening way via Kolkota. :thumbsup:
Rest of the movie was average / not so satisfactory. Not a fan of the songs (below-average per IR standards). Some forced "shock-value" thingies (late-in-the-game intro of a paedophile villain / kai izhappu etc).

nothing wrong in kodaanjifying and asking questions but we guys are asking them sitting on a platform he built from scratch, he brought all of us there. Before, such platform wasn't available
Hope everyone agrees this, without any questions :)
