Kamal all the way in Dasavatharam

Hi all, We knew the story, screenplay and dialogue for the film were by Kamal. But, it should be no surprise to you all when I say Kamal was also directing the film as was evident from the film. Yes, the film lacked the usual masala style of K.S.Ravikumar. He has lent his name just to be counted as directing the film. According to one of my friends who acted in the film Dasavatharam though in a small role told me it was Kamal who calling the shots and cuts during the shooting of the film. Ravikumar was roped in by Kamal just to perform the organisational work in the film. So naturally he should have been the assistant director of the film!! It was well known fact that Kamal did same with Sundar C with Anbe Sivam.


One gets awestruck when watching the film. Kamal simply rocks in all the ten characters and the voice modulation for all the characters were precise and amazing. Hats off to Kamal for all his efforts and let us wish him all best for his next film which he himself will direct!!

Dasavatharam Story - A hint!!

Ulaga Nayagan Kamalhassan who has penned the story, screenplay and even written dialogues for his magnum opus Dasavatharam, has said that working on the screenplay was the toughest part, as the subject itself was very complex. This out of the ordinary story line should be another reason to draw the crowds to the theaters.

This movie will in all probability definitely pose a challenge to Hollywood movies and there is a negligible chance that it won’t be a box office hit.

He has revealed a hint about the storyline of the movie Dasavatharam recently. He says that his story telling techniques are time tested and would keep it simple. He mentioned that the film’s story deals with environment, science and religion. Kamal who is Busy with the post production work now, Kamal, took time off his hectic schedule to talk about the mega project to the "The Hindu". And for the very first time, the actor lets us know Dasavatharam is about putting all the speculations to rest. In his own words, “Dasavatharam has a lot of Al Gore in it, and also Ramanujar.” From Kamal’s statement it can be understood that he has explored religion at great length in the film.
