Khan Saheb Kamal Haasan's Jamaat/Jeba Koottam/Devasthaanam - Part 8

[Arvind Srinivasan]

He would have been behind the bar for abusing a minor if he did do that in US and admitted that "he loved her" or whatever! He got away because he lived in "liberal India" where women are treated like trash!

With all due respects, thamizh, I believe the whole discussion is treading towards a different direction. All that I was trying to home were the analogies the movie shared with Balu Mahendra's life and his relationship with Shobha. Its a fact that it was her death that got him to write Moonram Pirai and that is pretty much evident from the characters on screen. I dont want to be judgemental nor do I want to comment on as to what transpired as for one I wasn't even born at that time. And Venki- I've read a couple of his interviews wherein he mentions Moonram Pirai and how Shobha's death was a driving factor for him write the movie.
