Iruvar



In case you don't know tamil, there are subtitles. In case you know, there are subtitles. Even tamilians would need subtitles to make sense of Iruvar. The scene, the script,the background score and the way the camera moves is genuinely admirable. The below scene is considered to be one of the best in Indian cinema *by some*. Scene is explained here. Vairamuthu, Santosh Sivan, A R Rahman, Mohanlal and Mani Ratnam at their best.

ahhhhhh, now i HAVE to watch that movie again.

so much lost in translation in the sub titles.... nothing comes close to the raw passion in the original words.... i am so lucky to be able to understand the original.:)

Iruvar was indeed a classic movie. Both in terms of technical finesse as well as in terms of story, plot and acting..!

Thanks, bvn for reminding..! :)

With Best Regards,
Srijith Unni.
