The Legendary Actor - Part 2

By -
    As I said Before Kamal is one of the Giant, Legendary, Luminary, Method actor in India. Kamal Life can be sorted in 2 Dimensions, Which is before and after nayagan.
Kamal’s portrayal of an underworld don (inspired by real life don Varadaraj Mudaliar) in the Mani Ratnam directed film 'Nayagan', won him his second National Award. It was his second film as India’s entry to the Academy Awards. The film also made it to the Time's All-TIME 100 Movies list.1987, That is the golden period of Kamal Hassan. I would say why this is the golden period of kamal hassan. After Nayagan he became choosy in scripts and characters. And certainly no two movies at the time. As a result, a well constructed Aboorva sagotharargal came, where kamal hassan went to the pinnacle of acting.The movie was a colossal hit and was dubbed into Telugu and Hindi too. As I said before this was his peak period. Following up with that, He gave another Legendary blockbuster Indran Chandran, Originally made in Telugu.The diabolical Mayor Rajendran and the simple man next door Chandran - a perfect contrast of double roles. Then came Michael Madana Kama Rajan experimenting with four roles. That was good slapstick comedy.
Kamal Hassan is extreme perfectionist, Who would do anything for a film to be good. We all know the movie sathya, for that movie he went to USA to see some Hollywood Stunt director to ask some techniques regarding stunts.While he was in peak also he gave plenty of blogbusters like, Michael Madhana Kamarajan, Guna, Thevar Magan, Mahanadhi, Kuruthi punal, Avvai Shanmugi, Indian (**** One of my favourite), Hey Ram. 
Then Happened Aalavandhan, the first indian psychopath movie gave mare variations and colours in its characters. To say, Quentin Tarantino got inspired of 10 minute graphical scenes in Kill Bill. Again he gave the series of hits like Panchathanthiram,Pammal K Sambantham, Anbe Sivam, Vasool Raja MBBS, Virumandi, Vettaiyaadu Vilayaadu. Then in 2008 Dasavatharam happened, Kamal Hassan portraying 10 different character, Which was directed by Ace Commercial Director, K.S.Ravi Kumar. Which was the pathbreaking Cinema in Kollywood. And then again some Hits like , Unnai pol oruvan, Vishwaroopam. Vishwaroopam is a landmark movie of kamal hassan where he was even threatened to thrive. This is what India gives to the one of the most refined actors in india. Shame on you People.The saga of Kamal Haasan will go on. He is, to borrow the title of one of his early films, a Sakalakalavallabhan. Now in his early forties and with more than 150 films under his belt, Padmashree Kamal Haasan's is one name which is sure to be printed in pure gold in the annals of Indian Cinema history.

Visaaranai Plot Analysis || An Absolute Classic

 The ancient Greeks probably had it right. According to them, gods were power-hungry pleasure-seekers who got their kicks by toying with human lives. It’s a fancy way of saying shit happens – but how else to explain away the mind-boggling randomness of, say, the recent floods in Chennai? Or the plight of the four Tamilian migrant workers tossed into a Guntur prison in Vetri Maaran’s powerful new film,  Visaranai ? The gods of this story, partly adapted from M Chandrakumar’s novel  Lock Up , are the gods of our time – the powerful people who make up the nebulous, all-pervasive, malignant entity we’ve come to call the System. And they keep hurling lightning bolts at Pandi (‘Attakathi’ Dinesh), Murugan (‘Aadukalam’ Murugadoss), Afsal (Silambarasan) and Kumar (Pradeesh), who are arrested when a local big shot’s house is burgled. The cops don’t care who committed the crime. They just want a confession.  Any confession. And who better to extract it from than these fou...

He is someone who literally gave a 'New' sound to music ever since he arrived on the Tamil music industry with the soundtrack of Mani Ratnam's Roja. Since then, there has been no looking back for A.R.Rahman who has been consistently delivering one hit after the other in Tamil, Malayalam, Telugu and Hindi cinema. His music in films like Roja, Kandukonden Kandukonden, Kadhal Desam, Bombay, Rangeela, Lagaan and Rang De Basanti have given us many chartbusters. The year 2008 was a particularly great year for all 'Rahmaniacs' as the music maestro gave us super soundtracks like Jodhaa Akbar, Jaane Tu...Ya Jaane Na, Yuvvraaj and Ghajini. On the same year his compositions for Danny Boyle's internationally acclaimed film Slumdog Millionaire has even fetched him the prestigious Golden Globe nomination. That is not the end then he done more and more Hollywood films, and some best music for him.  Roja versus Berklee Music School "I was in the backing band for t...
