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

[pushpak]

Talking about box office, I'd like to ask this question to the other Kamal fans here. Am I the only person who finds it extremely tough to convince someone from the general public that Dasavatharam was NOT a box office disaster? I mean, they don't just call it a flop. It is termed disaster by at least 7 out of 10 people I talk to(idhu south. In case of north indies, it is worse - 10/10). Forums, blogs, coffee time chats - its the same everywhere. Forget making them believe that it was a genuine blockbuster. The moment I say it made a huge profit, I am being mocked at. Appidi indha padam enna paavam senjuchu therila. If one person talks about Vishwaroopam, the very first comment we hear is - Let this not become a dud like Dasavatharam. Ippove ippidinna future'la nelama mosama thaan irukkum

I reflect the same opinion. There was no hype about its success. Was Nammavar not interested in celbrating the success? Confusing !!!
