------ Kaveri is being misused by Dhanush ( Kerala ) and Venkatachalam ( who speaks kannada with Manju ) ---- does that symbolise the river water dispute ?

i dont think too much of hanifa character there but a kannadiga "abusing" kaveri is undisputably tempting for kamal.......i have lot of disagreements with kamal's politics in movies including this one......

Hanifa's heavy accent suggests he is Malayalee. But any other suggestion in the story? It could have been Kamal (and groucho's) obsession with sondhakkural.
Venkatachalam kooda kannadiga demonization-nu sollamAttEn. oru line-ai vachchu overread paNNamudiyAdhu. If he wanted to do that he would have used more obvious markers. Heavily localized-A portray paNNiyirukka thEvai illai.

Linguistic politics side-taking, is something Hassar has not done. I am everyone's own 'nRa mAdhiri dhaan maindain paNNuvaar.
Hindi- adhu vERa department.

Mahanadhi might be among the best 3 tamil movies ever but Hey Ram would be the best, if not for udhiri pookkal. Decline after mahanadhi OraLavukku uNmai but the absolute peak of Kamal was Hey Ram. ippOdhakku ivLo dhAn solla nEram irukku

Kannada demonization is a paranoid reading

Guys, let's keep the discussions about readings possible in the film.

Plum, two fights-naala solreengaLA?

Over the years I have come to think of Mahanadhi is the best. romba deeppammA.
HeyRam paththi ezhudhunga. innoru thread aarambippOm.

Actually, if you are all fine I think this can be merged with the Sindhanai Selvar thread.
That's a good repository for such discussions.

P_R,
venkki brought up a good point about why Krishnasamy was left alone with no help from relatives/neighbours (of his village) even in acute situation. Neither he did any consultation with others (at least was not shown) before moving to Chennai, nor they helped him. I know sakala replied saying 'logic'laam romba paakkakoodaathu'.

I know for the kind of story he has to tell through this film, he has to compromise something, but since it is coming from Kamal, I think there should be more reason to this. I too feel it is glaringly obvious.

Would like to know your take on this, if you can please.
