Nadigar Thilagam Sivaji Ganesan - Part-15

[Irene Hastings]

A suggestion to those friends who have the reach with movie Directors - People like Mr.Murali Srinivas, Mr.Raghavendran and others. Why cant we interview VVS and get the best out of him . Probably, we can get all points from members here and meet VVS . I wish to know some answers from VVS :

1. How the theme was conceived
2. Screen play
3. Characterisation
4. Choice of co stars
5. That our idol himself should play both Father and Son . who decided . whose idea was this
6. Any special moments while directing
7. Dress code for NT. The Dad's dressing was superb! The son's was mild
8. Whether shots were taken immediately whenever Father-Son scenes come
9. Kavignar's reaction when the song situations were explained . How much time he took to write
10. MSV's BGM in particular and of course the tunes
11. The special scene - Chess board with Barrister being shown like an Emperor. Whose idea was this ?
12. Why should the character of Dad had so many inconsistencies ! ( I am referring to Mr.Gopal's analysis . Pls use it as reference point )
13. Work of Cameramen
14. Make up plays a special role . How the 2 characters were thought of
15. The virtual Court arguments presented through dummy run with Nagesh-Neelu etc. Whose idea was this !

Many more.

We can extend this type of interviews for other great movies of Thilagam . Today, very few Directors and artists who were with NT are alive . So, lets do this before its too late.
