Entertainment, vaasthavam dhaan.
My post was not exactly a rant but merely about my (selfish) longing to see Kamal in more meaningful movies/roles; simple yet gripping tales like Mahanathi, Devar Magan, Guna where there was more sincerity than compromises in the filmmaking. The fact that both of these mavericks are ageing, inevitable though it may be, is saddening, and it only pains me further, when time and effort gets eaten away in ventures like Dasa and Mambu (for Kamal; Raaja’s case is quite peculiar in this regard, where often a seemingly dud movie can have some really good songs and bgm!)
The track record of this combo is very evidently exquisite and Raaja seems inspired to bring out something special every time they work together.
Of course, we already have enough fodder from all that has been offered to us so far, but like I said earlier, its my naïve selfishness that leaves me yearning for more. Yen vekamketta peraasai!
