the songs got drowned in
first the release ban/controversy and
secondly, later on, in the release of VR itself (the 'appaadaa' feeling) combined with the near perfect screenplay.
post Thevar Magan, VR is the film that got noticed by even laypeople for its screenplay - Kamal the writer got the nod by even bloggers who usually criticize his 'over-indulgence'.
Post VR, Kamal can only get better - hence no PK remake please.
For me Devar magan is the best and outstanding screen play from Kamal..... Kamal has script writer easily out shined everyone behind the camera.....Be it a dialogues or character introduction, particularly Kaka radha krishnan and Nassar character..... I was fully awestruck while watching the movie in poonamalle sundar in 1992.... I watched it again three months back i felt the same feeling and now i understand the movie and dialogues better.....I also watched hindi version in early 2000..... both anil kapoor and amrish puri performance was big let down for me.... though the people in the north praised their performance......periya thevar acting pathi pesa periyvanga yaaravathu vanga....the bond between sivaji and kamal was outstanding..... this one among the movies where everything falls in to perfect place.....Thevar magan is an excellent adaptation of GOD FATHER in rural milieu.....
