Very interesting posts P_R, sakala, SS, wizzy. Thank you very much. I am even quite convinced now why he moved to chennai mainly because of better eduction for children and wants to get richer as SS stated. I think as P_R stated, we may have to extrapolate Krishnasamy's character from the words of lawyer, SNL, Dhanush. Even if I see, some brittleness in the earlier character of Krishnasamy portrayed, I take sakala's words; author defines the character that way.

Namba Cinefan kooda kettaaru, "Viswaroopam hindu name is written in Islamic font. Will kamal write an Islamic title in Hindu font?"

Point is, to both and even other belief sectors, avar adicha aLavukku kooda mathavanga adikkalai. so there is a neutrality, balance.

Cinefan, this is what i was trying to discuss with u!

Oh there should be no doubt about that at all.

Interesting questions by Roshan, SS and excellent answers P_R and sakala.
When I was in Mumbai, I showed this movie to some Mumbai friends. First question popped up their mind was the same as Roshan's. They liked it, but one question they asked was, Why Kamal has taken such as pessimistic movie?

Pessimistic.. yep ! Antha word antha samayathula vara maatenduchu. Though he kills the villain at the end - ivvaLvum izhanthuthaan antha villaingaLa azhikkanum avasiyam illa appadinnu I remember telling my brother who is a die hard fan of Mahanadthi. Having said that, the movie is still one of my favourites. It took a couple of years for me to get over the Kolkata episode. Oru kaalathula TV'la "sri ranga naathar' song vanthaa, channel udanae maathi irukkaen, because the song directly takes me to Kolkata episodes and leaves me with a very heavy heart (eppadi iruntha kudumbam ippadi aayiduchae type sOgam )

I don't think KH (or his team) ever claimed "this is the most, agmark, 100% realistic movie".

It's probably the "over-enthusiastic-others" that tried to portray this that way.

Agreed, SB claims in that interview that he liked to direct preachy movies and was happy that mahAnadhi had the chitfund message. However, that was only the 'message' part. The events / characters / surroundings ellAm one-off situation allAmal "average" illai.

Most of the complaints seem to center like, "it doesn't happen that way to 99% of the people". Yes, agreed. But the movie was about a person who happened to be that 1%. (People love Harischandra story, the play most liked by Gandhiji, didn't all bad things happen to him?)
