Vishwaroopam conveyed many things even before its Release in TN !!



This is the day when for the 1st time, a Tamil film produced, directed and acted by a Tamilian is releasing all around the world (Muslim countries included) but not in Tamil Nadu.

This is the day when Tamil Nadu, the only state in India to have delivered two Chief Ministers from Cine Industry, has got another film banned by one among them.

This is the day that will be remembered by the Opposition Party in TN and will be quoted in their future rallies that 'if we had been in power, we would have released Vishwaroopam and had our whole family watch it in peace' !!

This is the day when we Tamils, showcase to the world that we are not as secular as we think and that some of our fellow brothers still face insecurity and that they still think our mindset can be changed by watching a single film !

This is the day when we realise that though with great difficulties, if someone brings us newer technologies (DTH & Auro 3D), we will accept it only after making him suffer in loss !!

This is the day when it is clear again that though how great a person can be, he will get screwed up and will have to face his difficulties alone because of the system that we live in.

This is the day when Kamal should think of moving to Global Cinema instead of still acting in Tamil film (Vishwaroopam Part 2) even after 'Lord of the Rings' producer has shown interest to work with him because Tamil people either get satisfied easily or entitled to watch only the recent 'Alex Pandian', and the upcoming 'Singham 2' & 'Power Star' films !!

One movie, even b4 its release here, has conveyed too many things !!!!

Ban on Vishwaroopam !!!



I am not here to judge whether getting a 15 day stay (again!!) on 'Vishwaroopam' movie is right or wrong!!

I eagerly booked the tickets & waited but this ban on the movie made me think that if the film had released, I would have watched it with my friends among whom 3 would have been MUSLIMS !!! This second thought which never occurred to me previously was provoked solely by the ban alone & I want to put this blame on them who banned it !!


Blaming a film picturised on Afghanistan's people as against all muslims is like blaming 'The Dark Knight' movie as against all Christians since 'Joker' blew up half the Gotham city !!
