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

[hattori_hanzo]

Sippikkul Muthu ran 100 days in all major cities.






Indiran Chandiran - 100 days (single show). For a dubbed movie, this is a big feat.

ஆஹா சூப்பர் ஸார். அந்த மூன்று படமும் மிக சிறந்த படம். அவை தமிழ் நாட்டிலும் வெற்றி அடைந்ததை குறித்து மிக்க மகிழ்ச்சி. என் சந்தேகம் தீர்ந்தது. எப்பிடித்தான் உடன் பழைய போஸ்டர்ஸ் உங்களுக்கு கிடைக்கிறதோ!

I'm not sure what you meant here .. but Mohanlal is an actor par-excellence. I have seen quite a few of his performance movies ... if Kamal excels in acting, Mohanlal blends as the character itself ... Very natural without much effort. Only someone like Kamal can do what Mohanlal has done .. dont see anybody else .

Kamal can actually be a MohanLal (if he wants to) in being natural.
But of late he deliberately does not do it.
I am afraid that in Drishyam also Nammavar, though he is a middle class, not educated guy, may speak English with foreign accent (like in UPO )

Kamal has to put some effort to blend in as a commoner/uneducated/middle class compared to Mohan Lal for whom its a piece of cake ... When Mohan Lal walks with his 'Mundu' on the street, it will be hard to distinguish him from a commoner. You're very right, UN's English will give it away! Of course, the ultimate product will be pretty good and UN will make it happen, no doubt.

If you have seen ML's Kreedom and compare it with Ajith's remake, you'll see what I mean. Not to say the remake was not good but the original Kreedom was so natural/realistic and Ajith's remake was more cinematic.

It should take lot of guts to compare MohanLal and Ajith
(no offence to anyone)
Some of Lal's expressions cannot be done by anybody ! People who watch Malayalam movies will agree.
But Lal has limitations compared to Kamal.
Yes; MohanLal is "seen" as a common man. Many of his heroic characters also are based on common man background.
What I meant is Kamal, if he tries, can look natural as a common man; but I do not think he will try.
And for me, as I have watched the Malayalam version, anything less than it will be a disappointment (and also a hit on my ego/worship on Kamal)

They have their strengths. That 'common man' hero thingy is ML's forte .. thats were KH needs to put an effort but there're a bunch of things ML can't do what UN has accomplished. It also depends on how Jeetu J navigates it taking into account KH's strengths. We'll see.
