Ramya Krishnan during one of her interviews with Galatta.com on Panchathanthiram mentioned "One of the important things I learnt and admired about him (Kamal Hassan) is his ability to make a very simple and ordinary scene look so important and interesting." Now magnify the scene into a whole movie and that is exactly what Kamal has done again. A simple plot of a suspecting wife, a playboy husband, a dead hooker and some missing diamonds. This is something that a typical masala movie might carry but what makes it different is the ability of Kamal to continue to hold the audience in their seat for three hours without heaving a sigh of discontent when they finally leave the theatre. |
