| Good Review http://avyukta.blogspot.com/2008/06/blog-post_12.html
அன்று முதல் இன்றுவரை, இப்படியிருக்குமோ..!!. இல்லை அப்படியிருக்குமோ என்று பதைபதைத்து மண்டை காய்ந்து, ஓய்ந்து.. ஒருவழியாக இரண்டே காலே கால் வருட காத்திருப்பு, இன்று முடிவுக்கு வந்தது. கமல்ஹாசன் ஒரு பேட்டியில் "ஒரு படத்தை உங்களிடம் கொண்டு சேர்ப்பது கலைஞர்களுக்கு பிரசவ வேதனை போன்றது" என்று சொல்லியிருப்பார். இரண்டு வருடங்களாகக் காத்திருக்கும் இரசிகனுக்கும் அது பிரசவ வேதனை போன்றதுதான். இன்று பிரசவமாகிவிட்டது. சந்தோஷச் சமாச்சாரம் என்னவென்றால், குழந்தை நல்ல திடகாத்திரமாக, ஆரோக்கியமாக இருக்கிறது. தாயும் சேயும் நலமாக இருக்கிறார்கள். படம் முடிவானதில் இருந்து இன்று வரை தசாவதாரத்தின் மார்க்கெட்டிங் வார்த்தையாக இருப்பது "பத்து வேடங்கள்". இந்தியனில் தாத்தா கமல் பார்ப்பதற்கு கொஞ்சம் நெருடலாகவே இருப்பார். அப்படி ஏதாவது சொதப்பியிருப்பாரோ என்று பயந்ததற்கு நேர் எதிராக இப்பொழுது வியப்பாக இருக்கிறது. ஒவ்வொரு மேக்கப்பும் கனக்கச்சிதம். தாவாங்கட்டை மட்டும் சில கதாபாத்திரங்களில் வீங்கியிருக்கும். பத்து நிமிடங்களில் நமக்கு பழகிப் போய்விடும். ப்ளெட்சராக வடும் கமல் முதலில் "என்னடா ! இப்படி வேஷம் எல்லாம் போட்டுத்தான் செய்யனுமா ?" என்று முனுமுனுக்க வைத்தாலும், கதை நகர நகர "இந்த ப்ளெட்சரா நடிச்சிருக்கரவர் நல்லா நடிச்சிருக்காருப்பா !!!" என்று முனுமுனுக்க வைக்கிறார். ஜார்ஜ் புஷ் கெட்டப் அசரடிக்கிறது. இதுவும் முதலில் நெருடல்.. பின் ஆஹா கொட்ட வைக்கிறது. புஷ்ஷை சகட்டு மேனிக்கு கிண்டலடித்திருக்கிறார்கள். அவர் கண்ணசைவு, அவரது ஸ்டுபிடிடி எல்லாவற்றையும் படித்து ஹோம்வர்க் செய்து அதகளம் செய்கிறார் கமல். பலராம் நாயுடு கமல் கலக்கல் பாத்திரம். ப்ப்பா !! என்னமா மேனரிஸம் செய்கிறார். பலராம் நாயுடு நடப்பதில், உரையாடுவதில், ஓடுவதில் எல்லாம் கவனமெடுத்து பார்த்துப் பார்த்து செதுக்கியிருக்கிறார். சிரத்தை. என்ன ஒரு உழைப்பு. Mr. Kamalhaasan. My salute !! பொன்னியின் செல்வன் படித்தபோது நான் வியந்தது அதன் ப்ளானிங்கை. கல்கி, பல இடங்களில் நடக்க்கும் விஷயங்களை ஸ்வாரஸ்யம் குறையாமல், டீட்டெயிலும் பிசகாமல் விறு விறுப்பாக கதையை நகற்றுவார். கமலஹாசன் இந்த திரைக்கதையை எப்படி ப்ளான் செய்தார் என்று நினைக்கும் போது பொன்னியின் செல்வனின் நினைவுதான் வந்தது. தசாவதாரம் திரைக்கதை எழுத அசாத்தியமான Planning வேண்டும். ஒன்றுமில்லை ! ஒரு சேலஞ்ச் ! படம் பார்த்துவிட்டு, அதன் திரைக்கதையை ப்ளாட் போட்டு சொல்லுங்கள் பார்க்கலாம். ஒரு பயலாலும் இந்தப் படத்தின் கதையை ப்ளாகில் அப்படியே எழுத முடியாது. ஏனென்றால் படத்தில் முழுமையான கதையே இல்லை. சீறிப்பாயும் திரைக்கதை மட்டும்தான் நம்மை கட்டிப் போடுகிறது. ரங்கராஜன் நம்பி கடலில் மூழ்கியதிலிருந்து, கடைசியில் கோவிந்த் அதே சிலையின் மேல் சாய்ந்து சுபம் சொல்லும் வரை விறுவிறுப்பு. ஏகப்பட்ட கார் சேஸ்கள். சண்டைக் காட்சிகள். எல்லாமே டாப் கியரில் பறக்கிறது. இதற்கு நடுவில் கமலின் வேடங்கள் புகுந்து நுழைந்து வாய் பிளக்க வைக்கின்றன. கிராபிக்ஸ் எல்லாம் கலக்கல். கண்ணில் அகப்படுகின்ற கிராபிக்ஸ் மட்டும் கொஞ்சம் குழந்தைத்தனமாக இருக்கிறது. பேக்ரவுண்ட் ஸ்கோர் , யூஸ்லெஸ். Devi Sri Prasad has not disappointed me (if you know what i mean). கேமரா ! - இந்தப் படத்தில் கேமரா சுமாராக இருக்கிறது என்று சில பேர் சொல்லலாம். ஒரே ப்ரேமில் மூன்று நான்கு கமல் நுழைந்து யூனிபார்ம் லைட் கொடுக்க வேண்டும் என்றால், கேமரா மேன் திணறித்தான் போவார். செய்தவரை திருப்தியாகச் செய்திருக்கிறார் ரவிவர்மன். டைரக்டர் - கே.எஸ். ரவிக்குமார். இவரது பங்களிப்பு என்ன என்று எனக்குத் தெரியாது. ஆனால் இத்தனை சுமைகளைத் தாண்டி கமலால் படத்தை நிச்சயமாக இந்த அளவுக்கு இயக்கியிருக்க முடியாது. அதற்கு உறுதுணையாக இருந்திருக்கிறார் - ரவிக்குமார். Job well done, for executing Kamal's Script. எடிட்டிங், சவுண்ட் மிக்ஸிங், பாடல்கள் போன்ற இன்னபிற தொழில் நுட்பங்களை உன்னிப்பாக கவனிக்க முடியவில்லை. நீங்களே பார்த்துக்கொள்ளுங்கள். டு சம் அப்.... மலைப்பாக இருக்கிறது. சிறு சிறு குழந்தைத்தனங்கள், சிறு சிறு சறுக்கல்கள், சில அதிமேதாவித்தனங்கள், சில திணிப்புகள் எல்லாவற்றையும் தாண்டி... மலைப்பாக இருக்கிறது. எங்கே குறைசொல்லலாம் என்று யோசித்துச் சொல்பவர்கள் இன்னேரம் எழுத ஆரம்பித்திருப்பார்கள். ஆனால், படத்தில் வரும் சில டெக்னிக்கல் உச்சக்கட்டங்களை இன்னும் அசைபோட்டு வியந்தபடியே இருப்பதால், குறைகள் இப்பதிவில் எழுதப்போவதில்லை. ஒரு அருமையான மேஜிக்கை நிகழ்த்திய கலைஞன் எதிர்பார்ப்பது கைத்தட்டலைவிட, அவர்கள் முகத்தில் தெரியும் மலைப்புதான். நீங்கள் கட்டாயமாகப் படம் பார்க்கலாம். பார்க்க வேண்டும். A roller coaster ride. You fully expect a surprise, and you will be surprised yet ! |

an entertainment package with all ingredients!this is an entertainer ----taken just for entertainment!hitu kodukanumnu solli vechu edutha padam...dont expect the logic and other stuffs of other kamal movies!... 1.Rangaraja nambi - a furious vaishnavaite!pataasu look out for the initial "om namonarayana"part in the kallai mattum kandla song!...u would get goose bumps. 2.balram naidu - well...how would be a "sakthivel kavunder" of andra with a lot of kusumbu would be...thats balram ...this charecter is awesome! 3.christian fletcher - a hollywood villian in tamil movie 4.japanese charecter - just a cameo compared to other charecters...but the make up was wonderful.... the fight between the japanese charecter and the american christian fletcher should be the best i have watched in the tamil movies so far.its on par with hollywood. 5.kalifulla khan - u would adore this guy...innocent charecter...big by stature...child by nature(is this what kamal want to say abt the muslims?...though they seem to be rude to outside worrld...they are so kind and good hearted inside)...who knows?) 6.vincent poovaragan - well...many would put this charecter as the best charecter i believe...as a dhalith leader...his slang of the area,his body language!dialogues were sharp...a heroic charecer. paati,avtaar singh and bush to make it perfect ten! the graphics for making the charecters play on same screen...awesome...in no scene u would watch like double act...they loooked like different charecter...awesome work! but graphics should had been better in many other sequences like tsunami,throwing rangaraja nambi into sea...but u cant expect lord of ther ings type of ork for 60 crore budget! even the intro in the auditorium had a mediocre work of graphics...
the screenplay...jet speed! asin....shabaaaaaaaaaaaa...sari..padathuku oru heroine..avlothan dialogues - balram naidu dialogues ...as i said sakthivel kavunder baani comedy...pattaya kelupuchu for christian fletcher its so cool eg: christian fletcher(in climax to japanese charecter):do u remember hiroshima japanese:do u remember pearl harbour!
poovaragan dialogues are so sharp! music - BGM ...okthan..i can imagine the effect of arr in certain excellent sequences involving christian fletcher! a blockbuster movie which was made for the sole purpose of becoming a blockbuster |

Right on the money Vivasaayi. Your interpretation of kalifulla khan is wonderful. I wonder why this character was introduced, but you have justified. Absolutely fantastinc. Graphics - Tsunami itself was brilliant (i.e. the waves etc), but where they messed up is showing the objects being destroyed (like Car, house etc) and washed away. Screenplay - Yes. Jet speed. This is what will keep this movie running for months to come. Even kids can watch this. No obscure scenes or anything. In the theater y'day, most of the people came with whole people (6 lirundhu 60 varai) |

| In short, with unexpected twists and turns missing in the film, Dasavatharam is a make-up magic show that disappoints as drama and satisfies as a technical showpiece. Atheist Kamal seems to be indirectly affirming the existence of God here. |

Just back from 10A. It takes guts to come up with such movie. Only Kamal has got it. 3 hours, non stop (no interval) feast. There is no confusion etc. The story is running in a good thriller horse. For a change, Kamal (or KSR?) kept it simple. Amazing to see 7 characters introduced in first 20 minutes. Most of the scenes had atleast 2 kamal in the frame! There was about 10 minutes of pause specially with in minutes after Mughunda Mughundha song, but otherwise, rest of the movie is very fast moving. BGM- Not impressive. Graphics - Could have been better Make up - Very good (not excellent) Songs - Integral part of the movie. Doesnt come as a pop album popping up here and there. Very good usage of songs. Story-Original and extremely good Screenplay - One of the best in Indian movie. Dialogue - Very powerful. Acting - Well you dont have to talk about this. Comedy - Brilliant. KSR touch is there in many places. Kamal's "Crazy" touch is also there in many places. Stunt - Racy and entertaining. over all - 10A is going to stay in theaters for months to come, across all centers. Has everything for A, B and C center. I am already looking at 4th & 5th national award for Kamal (for Screenplay and acting). Also KSR might get his directional national award. Kamal's Viswaroobam. Proud to be a Kamal fan. |

Review from different centers (in my karpanai!) A Center - Hmmm... Its okay yaar. There is no link between 12th century and the latest happenings. The shouldnt have gone upto Bush. Graphics is not great. Titanic had better graphics. If I dont understand this, people in B and C center wont understand this. Lets see how it goes. B Center - Very good movie. Kamal's acting was good. Decent family entertainer. Good songs. C Center - Go back to the queue to get ticket for next show This is a "A" center subject, but given for "C" center audiance. This is 1000000% commercial winner. |

Review: Kamal Haasan at his best in `Dasavathaaram` Spicezee Bureau Mumbai, June 13: Kamal Haasan has done it yet again with his much awaited magnum opus, Dasavathaaram, that hit the theatres on Friday. The film is such an extraordinary effort by the actor that makes it an excellent blend of politics, science and thrill. Not just for his phenomenal 10 avathaars, but Kamal indeed deserves ovation for the outstanding role of a scriptwriter for the movie. The actor has superbly weaved in such an incredible script, perhaps the best one of Kamal till date. Throughout the film, the actor, the writer, an atheist questions the very existence of God. It is impossible to pick Kamal’s best role out of the ten. Annachi or Padikkadha Medhai, or Naidu, or of the 100-year old woman Krishnaveni? That’s not all, there’s Punjabi pop singer Avatar Singh, the former CIA agent, Fletcher, President George Bush or the lanky Afghan merchant? The actor gets each one with brilliance, such apt is the make-up and voice modulation of all the ten characters. As for the female lead, Asin, Dasavathaaram is an extension of her admirable performance in Ghajini. All the other actors including the ever so young Jayaprada, and Bollywood damsel Mallika Sherawat have also performed very well. Mallika adds to the glamour quotient, making her debut in ‘Tamil’ Dasavathaaram. Technically, the film’s direction is absolutely ‘flawless’. The story banks on a perfect ‘rock-solid’ script, good camera work, and some exceptional performances by the actors. The special effects and stunt choreography give a tough time to Hollywood. Kamal is at his best in terms of acting, scripting and what not! Dasavathaaram sure glues you to the seat for complete 165 minutes. Hats off to Kamal Haasan! Four stars for this must watch! |

there r other flaws like makeup and grafics but i dont worry for them there is an grandness unseen before in other movies there is superb bodylanguage for all characters and bit less dialogs for non indian chars another minus i wud say is movie is complex. u r a A or c center audience dont matter here. what matters here is how perfectly you see a scene and how perfectly u remember and recall it. iam sure ther are ample ppl in villages who can do those. so the complexness wont alienate c center audience or so. eventho there is slight mokkais in dialogs the non dialog portions are too too amazing which will satisfy a dire commercial masala fan. no part is boring and ther is something for every category. like the villain char has style so that u really cannot dislike him |

Only -ve thing from Kamal movie perspective is that there are no romances, kissing etc |

Review from different centers (in my karpanai!) A Center - Hmmm... Its okay yaar. There is no link between 12th century and the latest happenings. The shouldnt have gone upto Bush. Graphics is not great. Titanic had better graphics. If I dont understand this, people in B and C center wont understand this. Lets see how it goes. B Center - Very good movie. Kamal's acting was good. Decent family entertainer. Good songs. C Center - Go back to the queue to get ticket for next show This is a "A" center subject, but given for "C" center audiance. This is 1000000% commercial winner. |

Review: Kamal Haasan at his best in `Dasavathaaram` Spicezee Bureau Mumbai, June 13: Kamal Haasan has done it yet again with his much awaited magnum opus, Dasavathaaram, that hit the theatres on Friday. The film is such an extraordinary effort by the actor that makes it an excellent blend of politics, science and thrill. Not just for his phenomenal 10 avathaars, but Kamal indeed deserves ovation for the outstanding role of a scriptwriter for the movie. The actor has superbly weaved in such an incredible script, perhaps the best one of Kamal till date. Throughout the film, the actor, the writer, an atheist questions the very existence of God. It is impossible to pick Kamal’s best role out of the ten. Annachi or Padikkadha Medhai, or Naidu, or of the 100-year old woman Krishnaveni? That’s not all, there’s Punjabi pop singer Avatar Singh, the former CIA agent, Fletcher, President George Bush or the lanky Afghan merchant? The actor gets each one with brilliance, such apt is the make-up and voice modulation of all the ten characters. As for the female lead, Asin, Dasavathaaram is an extension of her admirable performance in Ghajini. All the other actors including the ever so young Jayaprada, and Bollywood damsel Mallika Sherawat have also performed very well. Mallika adds to the glamour quotient, making her debut in ‘Tamil’ Dasavathaaram. Technically, the film’s direction is absolutely ‘flawless’. The story banks on a perfect ‘rock-solid’ script, good camera work, and some exceptional performances by the actors. The special effects and stunt choreography give a tough time to Hollywood. Kamal is at his best in terms of acting, scripting and what not! Dasavathaaram sure glues you to the seat for complete 165 minutes. Hats off to Kamal Haasan! Four stars for this must watch! |

They need not have spent so much for this makeup. The fakes on the internet were too good. |

2. Scientist 3. Rangarajan 4. Asin c. Chaos theory was well exhibited. How the tsunami "helped" in the climax, was well thought of. d. Although storyline was extremely thin, the 3 hours was not boring. Dasavatharam - will find favour with Kamal fans, more so the hard core fans.

positives: + Intro : One of the best ever intro + First 20 mins U have to watch breathless + Govind character Thalivar at his natural best + Graphics Many times we don't realize there is 'graphics'. That is how graphics should be. + Body language and 'style' of villain only problem is that we do not 'hate' the villain ! + Most importantly the screenplay negatives: - appuram sollalam... |

And the Screen Play. As Kamal said in a couple of interviews, his 11th role - story, dialogues and screen play - is the ultimate hero of the movie :twothumbsup: |

I will be very surprised if this film doesn't do well as both the fans and the general public sees to have caught on with the film.

I agree with positives here Roshan. What about negatives. I also wanted to write a honest review but not interested because Kamal fans are really upset with Many negative reviews here. My review will not be negative for sure. Overall definitely positive. Again good luck with this movie. Hopefully this movie still will be a huge hit. |
Obviously any fan would like to see positive things about the movie at the beginning. KH fans cannot be an exception. I am fan myself

| Not just the actor kamal is versatile ,the reviews for his movie Dasavatharam covers all possible ranges from *Worst* to *Extraordinary*
while expected Kamal fans looks not enthusiastic and in defense mood ,surprisingly unexpected non-kamal circle has much postive words to convey. I have never seen a movie got these kind of wide and opposite extremes responses and views. Hmm..I have to wait for tommorow to judge myself. |

Very very carefully thought about and executed movie. I am speechless after watching it for 2nd time. I am going to take some time (probably 2 or 3 days), read about Chaos theory, Butterfly effect and also bit about what truly happened during 12th century and some of the recent incidents (between Sep 11 and Tsunami). This is a well thought about, studied movie, executed with KSR masala in it. This movie will rock in B and C centers. Poornimas and other self proclaimed "A" center folks wont like it, and be it. I am tired of "A" center people liking movies (like Guna, Anbe Sivam) and failing in box office. For a change, this is a class subject (meant for A center) executed with B and C audiance in mind.

The script is much better than 90% of the Tamil movies. Padathukku peyar 'Dasavatharam'. Not possible to give equal importance, build-up and footage to each of those 10. Even in the actual 'Dasavatharms' of Vishnu not each avathar has equal 'popularity' or 'lifetime'. Surface level intelligence is better than no inteliigence at all. This movie is not made for critcs. mix of masalas - yes this is our crowd wants and Kamal gives it this time. showcase the 10 characters - Yes, it is to showcase his talents - I find no problems with it. A script writer showcases his/her talents with a good script, a singer with his good voice, then an actor can do it be performing a variety of roles which no one else can even dare to do ! And it is obvious he needs the help of make up. May be make up was no upto the mark ! Graphics - if people expect (Dr. Rajashekhar kind of style) "ithu thanda graphics..." then no comments, graphics were good. "look-at-me-see-what-i-can-do" - This is what every artists do. |

| kamal has always been the most popular non-mal hero in kerala... with rajni now coming a close second... vijay and vikram are big hits with the college crowds, but i think they are by no means competition to kamal or rajni.
rajni's popularity in kerala took a leap with dalapathy... till then, he was largely looked at as a superhero who does outrageous stunts... after dalapathy, baasha and padayappa were monster hits in kerala and his latest chandramukhi did big business too... the fact that sivaji is sold for a record price (even by mal superstar film standards) shows that rajni is closing in fast on the race for the no 1 slot, which still, of course, rests with kamal. in terms of viewers' overall respect and adulation, kamal is miles ahead there... but the critical difference is the people who actually buy tickets and watch films... on that count, there's hardly anything that separates kamal and rajni... especially in thiruvananthapuram and the palakkad belt, where rajni has a distinct edge over kamal. |

Well packed. Few things to note 1. First time tamil movie released in 3 theaters in NJ and more than 40 theaters across US. As much Telugu version is also released. 2. Movie scheduled for 5 shows in most of the theaters and 7 shows in few theaters. 3. There were some noices in the beginning (the"others"), specially when they introduce the scientist, research center etc - Namma aalunga VB, .NET program panninalae "yaam yellaam arivom" vaanunga. So avanungalukku scientist characters was a joke, but just during intro. The were on the edge of the seat through out. 4. Every one liked "Balaram" character very well. 5. Whole theater was quite, pin drop silence after interval. 6. No one left until all final credits were displayed. 7. Kids in general enjoyed the movie. I dont know what they liked, but they liked, including my son and my friend's daughter (6 ad 7 yrs). Most of the kids didnt sleep till 2:30 AM!!! (went for 7th show - 11:30 PM show) Very good response in general. Ofcourse there were some "A" starers, who gave -ve reviews, generally about make up, graphics etc. Lot of people came out and were discussing various aspects of the film, which is a good news. |

Am not getting judgemental&Yes,I remember you praised Kamal for his performance in VV without the aid of make up. But the fact remains that you don't think very highly of him esp as an actor&I get a feeling that there is an element of prejudice when you review his movies. Anyways,it's your opinion&no point trying to change that. Also what's that between you&Urvashi?I f I am not wrong you watch all the movies that you post about there(if it's being screened )or the nearby Poornima theatre.

| Dasavatharam enthrals Kochiites
Staff Reporter KOCHI: Spectators shook their heads in disbelief and die-hard fans searched for superlatives as actor Kamal Haasan’s magnum opus Dasavatharam created a flutter across cinema halls in Ernakulam on Friday. Hundreds lined up hours before the inaugural screening to watch their favourite actor donning 10 roles in a movie that was termed as one of the ‘biggest’ in terms of money and pre-release hype. The same euphoria was last witnessed during the release of actor Rajnikanth’s Sivaji — The Boss. Satyakanth, a movie buff and Kamal fan, struggled for words when asked to describe the movie. “I am sure that it is going to be a hit. The film is worth the hype. Kamal Sir has once again proved that he is the ulaga nayagan (universal hero)”. Fans, who came to watch the movie on the first day, could not hide their excitement. Murukan, a labourer from Tamil Nadu, said that he had watched almost all the films of the actor. “I like him a lot,” he said. Youngsters, who waited for long in queues, wanted to know whether the hype would match the actual quality of the movie. Movie buffs who could not make it on the first day were worried but called up their friends in other places to know more about the movie. “I called up my friend in Coimbatore. He was really excited. And he told me that the movie has got a great opening in Tamil Nadu,” said Anantharaman, an employee with a private company here. In Ernakulam alone, the movie is being screened in 10 centres. http://www.thehindu.com/2008/06/14/stories/2008061461000200.htm |

| It's really hard to narrate complex subjects to the common man especially to the indian crowd. Indian crowd is very much used to masala kind of stuff and they cannot (atleast B&C center) watch a movie without these usual formulas. Don't you ever judge a movie just based on the comments from audience coming out of the theater. Every audient will give only positive reviews for even the worst movie when coming out of the theater. I've seen all this same kind of reviews for films like Aalavandan, Aathi etc. But you know what the box office fate of these movies were. We have to wait for a few more weeks to tell the fate of Dasavatharam. One thing for sure is that this film is not liked by critics. I feel that Dasavatharam is a prime example of movie which could fail to impress if the story line is bad, even though how much ever you spend on the gimicks portion of it. Let's see how far the gimicks shown in the movie could make it to stay in the theater. |

Positive comments coming from even guys who would be ideally a B &C center crowd. In fact negative words coming from a section of the so-called educated,thinking people. I will be very surprised if this film doesn't do well as both the fans and the general public sees to have caught on with the film. BTW,PM me on Bala's view.he said he will watch it one more time and call/message me yesterday evening.am still awaiting that. |

vincent was awesome with dialogues.

If I were Aascar ravi chandran, I would be happy with five kamalhassans,few graphics which would have decreased the number of days of shooting,post production and money spent. I shud say.. Not even in one point of time we thought it was double act or same kamal.. the camera and character positioning were perfect. a lesson of future movies with multiple acts. If the following characters were done by following people..it would have been perfect: krishnaveni- manorama george bush - unwanted chiristian fletcher - kamal with better makeup or peter hain himself. japanese guy- unwanted |

(Villain - Irritating, Martial arts guy - pity, Naidu - comedy and so on) I thought the poovaraghavan character (both the characterisation and the way kamal did that) was awesome....... for me the pick of all characters......... probably bcoz this character was new for kamal unlike the other characters where we had seen better stuffs from him earlier
There is no story, the screenplay is torrid at times, the logic goes for a toss (kamal follows shankar and murugadoss here), the ksr touch is missing and there is too much of kamal's influence in the film's direction....... i was like wowwww about the tsunami connection to the movie........ i felt like clapping (but no one to give company @ Mayajaal) at that time..... at this point liked the movie inspite of its flaws..... but then the climax dialogue that kamal have with asin regarding the existence of GOD, that just made the feeling bitter..... and also the way the urchavar was handled in the movie..... enna than karanam sonnalum kandippa hurting the sentiments.......... otherwise irrespective of all flaws intha padatha ethanai thadavai venumnalum paarkalam |

| Just came from Dasavatharam
The theatre was completely PACKED. Definitely one of the most popular films out here in US. Lines and lines of people waiting. In one word, WOW! The story itself does not really compare to some of Kamal's previous gems and seemed forced, but again for Kollywood a film of this caliber is just amazing. Above all, it shows the sheer brilliance of Kamal and K.S. Ravikumar (to some extent - this is certainly KAMAL'S film ALL the way), to be able to put together all of these characters and happenings and create a smooth-flowing story. Truly amazing! Kamal: MAGNIFICENT. I am not really a Kamal fan, but I always walk away from every one of his films mesmerized and full of admiration. This time was no different as this is an OUT and Out Kamal film. Only he could pull of such a gutsy film like this. He is in a league of his own and Kollywood should be proud to have a legend like him. Of the ten roles, the memorable ones were the scientist (main protagonist so of course), the bad guy, George W. Bush (hilarious especially the NaCl scene), Punjabi pop star, and the Telugu police (this role was my and the audience's fav and showcased Kamal's amazing comic timing - got many laughs/claps). - Asin. I had to admit that I was surprised that she was able to hold her own ground in a film like this with someone as big Kamal (that too in ten roles). But she didn't get lost and was there with Kamal from the first frame to the last. At first, (esp in the first scene in the Chola period) she gave a powerful performance watching her husband die but as the cute, Iyengar girl, she eventually got annoying by screeching constantly. She and Kamal had some good comic moments, but there wasn't much "chemistry" compared to Kamal's other heroines. It would have been nice if there were more serious / romantic moments between the two to make up for no duet. All in all, she was good tho, especially her impressive dubbing in he own voice.
- Other characters were effective tho none really stuck in the mind except Mallika who was a surprise package, showing that she could also act well in addition to everything else she does
Songs: Kallai Mattum and Oh Oh Sanam were spectacular to view on screen. Kallai Mattum was one of the most powerful songs I have even seen and I couldn't take my eyes off the scene due to Kamal's and Asin's impeccable acting and Hariharan's voice. Oh Oh Sanam was catchy and grand with a the cute Punjabi Kamal. Minuses- - Asin's screeching and the lack of chemistry - Some roles seemed forced like the old lady Kamal - Too many fights that were too long Overall a film that only a genius like Kamal could pull off. Definitely an enjoyable film for anyone and everyone. |

| the way the movie starts and ends on the same shore,
the way how every body in the world has his own belief in life. p.Vasu, santhanabarathy, kamal's friend in US were money minded, beliefs of various persons like nambi on vaishnavism, napolean on saivism, govind on atheism, asin on her belief and obsession to get back the idol, patti on her grand son's return, boovaragan's communist thoughts, japanese's guys' revenge for his personal damage, balram singh on his family, yusuf on his emotions, bush's character on his motto and the most important and interesting thing is how one person's belief living in one part of the world is affecting some other other who is not related to the other is affecting. continued ... 3:01 pm (1 hour ago) Babu one of the interesting aspects of the film is the mixture of emotions, comedy, thriller, stunts, music, science involved and not being overdone. For those you ridicule DASA, have you ever seen a fight as good as the one between fletcher and the japanese guy? people will enjoy the anniyan karate fight which was an artificial one done just for fantasy, but this one was a real pleasure to watch. the nano motions, steps given by the japanese guy is something you should really thank kamal and not ridicule him like a stupid. The way the movie ends with kamal and asin conversing with each other on god standing in front of god is itself was something like a court with each person arguing on his belief in front of the judge ... come one guys, please enjoy such essence before opening your bloody mouth to make fun of the movie |

i thought poovaraghavan was the best role of Dasavatharam, but coming to think of it, it shud be Fletcher...... this villain has no style (ala Rajini's super stylish and enjoyable villainism) but kamal almost made everyone (atleast me) forgot tht it was kamal who has done that role...

There is no story, the screenplay is torrid at times, the logic goes for a toss (kamal follows shankar and murugadoss here), the ksr touch is missing and there is too much of kamal's influence in the film's direction....... i was like wowwww about the tsunami connection to the movie........ i felt like clapping (but no one to give company @ Mayajaal) at that time..... at this point liked the movie inspite of its flaws..... but then the climax dialogue that kamal have with asin regarding the existence of GOD, that just made the feeling bitter..... and also the way the urchavar was handled in the movie..... enna than karanam sonnalum kandippa hurting the sentiments.......... otherwise irrespective of all flaws intha padatha ethanai thadavai venumnalum paarkalam |

| Spectacular and hmm.. spectacular..
Finally, freed from the shackles of work, I watched the movie yesterday at Birmingham. And there is just one thing to say: spectacular. But did it have all that we have come to expect from a Kamal script? No, would be my answer. It is a Aboorva Sagotharargal meets Avvai Shanmugi kind of film, with a serious 'Crazy' Mohan hangover (BTW, story discussion team includes Late Sujatha and 'Crazy' Mohan). The starting scenes were supposed to be the best, but except Kamal, the entire crowd of extras looked like they have suddenly been told that the temple prasadam would not be issued that day. Rank bad acting in the opening scenes. It doesn't help that Nepoleon confuses 'na' with 'Na' (maNaivi for manaivi) and 'la' with 'La' (kadaL for kadal). The guy should have done a crash course on Tamil diction and told in no uncertain terms that he is in a historical part. But thankfully the movie moves on to its comfort zone with arguably some of the best adrelin pumping action sequences in any Tamil movie. The characters are then introduced, most of them witty and clever but one downright irrittating. All very good until the interval. The Kamal-Asin sequences were starting to get on my nerves (did I mention the 'Crazy' hangover?) and just when I thought that the movie was going to the 'chase mode' again, there comes Kaifulla Khan, changing the gears from 5th to 2nd, almost throwing us out of the windshield. Why the preachy tone of 'Muslims are good' in the middle of a masala movie? Why, why? And why the sardar character just to prove that chaos theory works wonders for him too? Kamal surely knows that less is sometimes good. As for the dialogues, they range from top-notch to downright cheesy. Cheesy when RAW interrogates the 'madam' and the muslim neighbourhood, class when Fletcher says 'you talking to me' (Travis Bickle anyone?). And talking of Fletcher, he is the highlight of the movie for me. Kamal as the villain is pure pleasure to watch. Watch out for the scene where he tries to get down the stairs of the building to pursue Govind, and then with an expression of "what the heck" decides to jump to the ground instead. 100% undiluted pleasure!! And then there is Balram Naidu, with a Balayya intonation, that just makes you wish he were given more screen time. I have never been a big fan of graphics, be it Hollywood movies or Indian movies, and it is no exception here too. Supposed to be the USP of the movie, but not for me. And the stock footage of Jayalalitha is so 60's. For the love of god!! The movie is entertaining, for the action sequences and Kamal, the actor. For the fans of Kamal the writer, it is a bit of a letdown. |

Will do, PR. Friday, someone here was asking if this film is as "bad" as AlavandhAn, to which I wanted to respond, and say, I quite easily preferred AlavandhAn to this one!

response is really good in north india when compared to any other TAMIL movie. weekend shows are houseful in bombay, (mind it, they have more than 60 shows per day in mumbai, more than 50 shows in tamil and around 10 shows for the telugu version) plz wait for the dubbed version before commenting abt the movie's fate in the north india | From: Prabhu Ram on Sun Jun 15 13:32:37 2008. |

| That's going to be my principal grouse. Ten roles meant each one competing with the other for screentime. This has come at the expense of the audience- er me - not being able to connect to the characyters. Depth of the characters - even the celebrated ones like BoovarAhan- have suffered IMO. So we have many interesting 'spectacles' lined up for display in the film. Which is how I see the 'spectacular' in the title of your post |
. We know it takes a genius like Kamal to interweave so many characters into the story. But at times I was wondering how much better the whole film would have been had he done away with the Sardar and Khan. Even make it a 'mummunai' chase with Fletcher, RAW and Balram Naidu. It would have worked like a charm. Forget chaos theory and all. Simple, pure masala it would have been and we would probably have been talking about it on par with AS.

More importantly, I hope this commercial success goes to Kamal's head and hopefully he will understand how to make "masala" dosa for indian ground. This is an intellectual masala movie and if he continues to give that, NO one can stop him. Sorry, got to go for my 4th show. Will post tomorrow. |

When ever the "Scientist Kamal" and asin were in danger , "Perumal" saved them from the danger in any of the way. 1.Kamal escaped from Villain Kamal thru the Lorry In Lorry We can see "Sri Ramajayam" 2.When Santhana Bharathi tried to rape Asin, She called "Narayana" and Boovaragan came and saved her. We can relate this in "Throubathi incidenet in Mahabaratham". 3.Kamal and Asin escaped from Santhana bharathy gang in Lorry. In that lorry you can see the "Krishna" in the front. |

So I am not aware of the fights. there . when I came here I shocked to see that the fight is still going.. My friends (all kamal fans) told me that V V would not run.. I am the one assured them that it will become a superhit.. |

http://ww.smashits.com/news/bollywood/movie-review/6744/kamal-hasan-s-ten-character-avatar-mesmerizes.html Some hightlights of this review: People in Hindi speaking belt of the country may have declared Amitabh Bachchan as the star of the millennium, but if one sees the quality of the films that Kamal Haasan has delivered in his career, Big B's film will have a tough fight in the comparison. Kamal Haasan can find a fan even in small centers like Meerut and Kanpur in Uttar Pradesh (completely north Indian). And lot more there please read. |

I think Kamal was also quite successful at taking digs at almost all current events (forgetting of course the 'madam' bit). Like when Avatar Singh talks to the press about 6.5 crore gods in TN, or when Asin says "summa friends'nnu solla naan enna cinema kaariya?". |
The commendable part is - all such lines had a natural flow. Nothing seemed to be forced in - including that one of Asins - 'naan enna cinema nadigaiyA'

| Dasavatharam deals with this brilliantly.
Assuming Govind is the rebirth of Nambi, they are totally the opposites. Nambi dies having faith in god,but Govind is an atheist. So it balances the so called Karma equation. This also applies to asin(though the other way round) 12th century asin is ready to give up her belief in Lord Vishnu for the sake of her husband. But andal is a stonch believer in god who always tries to safeguard the statue. |

Why go for that, they didn't even review the film. I really don't understand in what way regional films are inferior to Bollywood films. Regional films are being ignored like pigs in the gutter. Things should change and regional films should get national coverage. Language should never be a barrier for great works. Even the so called IIFA does not care about regional films but still they use the brand name India (as if south india is in Africa). |

| Ticket price rise fails to deter movie buffs
Web posted at: 6/17/2008 2:43:12 Source ::: The Peninsula/By RAYNALD RIVERA Movie buffs queuing up for tickets at the Gulf Cinema. Cinemas in Qatar have increased the ticket prices, but good movies continue to attract a large number of viewers. (SALIM MATRAMKOT) “I think people will be watching movies even if ticket price reaches QR100,” Abdulaziz said. Currently, the price of ticket at the cinemas has been raised from QR30 to QR35. “The rise in ticket price is not only in Qatar but all over GCC,” he added. But despite the extensive hike, movie buffs seem unfazed. In fact, a long queue was observed at the Gulf Cinema at 2pm yesterday. One movie-goer at the Gulf Cinema said, “We are buying tickets for the 8pm show of the movie Dasavatharam.” The movie, he said, was a long-awaited film which stars Indian superstar Kamal Haasan, playing ten different characters. “That makes it exciting," he said. Another man in the queue remarked that he wasn't able to get ticket the day before because of the rush. |

| Kamal Hasan’s Dasavatharam has taken flying start in Andhra Pradesh. Although the film has not received rosy reviews and feedback, the initial collections for the film are extraordinary. The film has got biggest openings in Kamal’s career.
In Hyderabad, the film has witnessed near 100 percent collections in the first three days - Friday, Saturday and Sunday. It has released in 34 theatres in Hyderabad and Secunderabad and all the shows recorded houseful at all centers. What is interesting to note that none of the cast from the film came to Hyderabad nor did a press meet or a promotional campaign held before the release, yet it garnered best openings for a Kamal film! http://www.telugucinema.com/c/publish/news/dasavatharam_june1508.php |

Yes - this movie is similar to Navarathiri, where the need for shivaji to play 9 different characters isn't there . In alavandaan, MMKR, Aboorva , the characters are atleast twins - hence it is acceptable. But i did'nt find it necessary for Kamal to act in all 10 roles - unless you accept the perception of shivaaji acting in all 9 roles in Navarathiri . It is a new genre as i see it . |

He got injured (some say he pretended to escape playing that role) and Kong was eventually played by someone who had a natural western drawl - i.e. the accent was not put on. Perhaps Peter Sellers may not have been able to do the accent as well - but what is more interesting. Boils down the egg-and-magician example Kamal gave when the same question was asked wrt Indian.

The difference (which is also true of MMKR) is that we had sufficient time and scenes to relate to the characters. Dasa was just too packed. Most roles don't stick. To a lesser extent, this is true in Navarathri. Some roles, IMHO, don't make as much of an impact as others and are spectacles for display. |

Not that he can't be connected. adhukkum ippidi ellAm sollalaam: No Shingen - Fletcher would not have been pushed to the edge ---> no 'after-me-the-deluge' suicide attempt ---> no Andal-type justification for Tsunami ---> no resurfacing idol ----> no Nambi Some of the events, connections seemed very fragile and engineered. And characters-for-a-purpose is too one-dimensional for a writer of this calibre. 10-9 roles in 180 mins is a challenge. IMO even Sivaji couldn't make all roles memorable in Navarathri. |

It really made the people realise the effort and hardwork by Nammavar kamal ,so when they leave the hall ,most of the people forget the flaws of the movie and talk about kamal's hardwork. Most of the people acknowledge ,irrespective of many negative aspects ,it is kamal's hardwork stands out and non-kamal fans tend to appreciate it . Ulaganayagane song maynot be a choice for elite audience ,but it helped a lot for movie's commercial success. |

| Economic Times box office report
Kamal Hassan’s Dasavataram raked in Rs 3 crore in Chennai, and Rs 21 crore for the whole of Tamil Nadu. In the non-Southern markets, which got about 80% occupancy, the film grossed about Rs 60 lakh in the first three days of its running. The film is anticipated to rake in close to Rs 100 crore as its theatrical revenue at the end of this week, as Chennai theatre owners state that the bookings for the next 10 days are house-full. If compared to Rajnikant’s Sivaji the film grossed over 25 crore in its first one week. Given the current figures, Kamal Hassan is currently one up. http://economictimes.indiatimes.com/News/News_By_Industry/Media__Entertainment_/The_Happening_grosses_315_mn_in_US/articleshow/3135416.cms well, we can take this as authentic, atleast to an extent.. |

There were quite a few instances of trademark Kamal-style dialogue delivery in the film that instantly reminded me of Sakthivel Kounder. And, as he also speaks quite slowly in that film (considering how fast it's usually spoken), I didn't quite realise the usage of chaste Nellai dialect.

But, I also see some sort of condescension from the other side.

That's a completely baffling stance. Let me ask one question. I see that just about everyone here is pooh-poohing Mumbai Xpress. So, by this logic, they'd also not be true-blue Kamal fans?

The way I see it, Dasavatharam is not a film in which Kamal incidentally plays ten roles. Dasavatharam is a film which is about Kamal playing ten roles. This comes squarely in the tradition of Sivaji. Just like how Navarathiri was about Sivaji playing nine roles. And, it's not necessarily an uninteresting thing to do. |

Chennai Box-Office (June 13-15) Tuesday, 17 June , 2008, 15:53 Kamal Hassan's big budget extravaganza Dasavatharam rules the Chennai box-office. From 17 screens in the city it has netted a record 95.5 lakhs in three days, a new record. The Chennai Corporation had given the producer special permission to hold five shows daily, which helped the film to garner the extraordinary opening. Actually Dasavatharam on CBO should be from No: 1 to 5, as the second highest collecting film does not have even one-tenth its collection this weekend. All other earlier releases which were holding on collapsed. At number two for the sake of having a rating list is Santosh Subramaniyam, in the third position is Priyadarsan's Mere Baap Pehle Aap which had a good opening but fell by Sunday due to negative word of mouth. In the fourth place Kuruvi and in the fifth place is last week's number one, Sarkar Raj, which has fallen badly Note : Ratings are based on the box office collections and the cost of the film |

And I read some comments that MX is better than 10A (MX pattae kuppai). Aalavanthaan is better than 10A ( give me a break ). May be, reviews like this might help the audience have a better experience at the theatres |

-deleted- If kamal was trying to upping-middle-finger (ala neengaL kEttavai), why say I LOVED my 11th role? Thats what took me to the theaters. And if people want to talk about albert last year (that too just one show - Monday matinee I think, also I posted it), can they also let the all important hubbers know what happend (has been happening) in vetRi/Rakesh! I don't have much info this time on other theaters.. |

I did get confused with Avinasi, if you remember. There were quite a few instances of trademark Kamal-style dialogue delivery in the film that instantly reminded me of Sakthivel Kounder. And, as he also speaks quite slowly in that film (considering how fast it's usually spoken), I didn't quite realise the usage of chaste Nellai dialect.

Yes, I understand. enakkuLLayum reNdum irukku 'nnu vechchikkOngaLEn. But, I also see some sort of condescension from the other side. Something on these lines: Those who didn't like Dasavatharam are armchair critics, aren't true-blue Kamal fans, and/or aren't "concerned" about the fate of Dasavatharam at the box office, and/or something to that effect. That's a completely baffling stance. Let me ask one question. I see that just about everyone here is pooh-poohing Mumbai Xpress. So, by this logic, they'd also not be true-blue Kamal fans? Unfortunately, in this big bad world, if one didn't actually like a film, the only way to put it is to say that -- one didn't like it. |

Again i have to repeat - The main reason why Aboorva is such a classic is that it is so in spite of being a commercial entertainer. Dasa might not match it but its one heck of an attempt and a different one at that. |

Hey Ram was so good that i can be proud of it in spite of its failure. MX does not quite reach that threshold IMO. |
As for me, I try to hold up films purely on the basis of how much I love it. (I find artistry in 'Pammal K. Sambandham' for god's sake. I don't think anyone can patronize me for being an "armchair critic," whatever that means!)

Dasa's release in the B and C areas is shocking, for e.g. its been released in just one theater in thanjavur. Also tamizh, this hub is a very very small sample of the outside world, so i don't think its worth fighting over the BO status of movies here, though I always do that |

cmm=53690&tid=5212725880820773781 The relation betwn ten roles of dasa & Lord Vishnu guys i found this interesting especially few ones of the naming.. http://sathyaphoenix.wordpress.com/2008/06/17/the-mapping-of- each-ten-roles-to-avatars-in-dasavatharam/ One thing we had noticed is why people didn’t get the real subtext and reason for the various roles and hence the title. If you knew the real dasavatharams of Lord Vishnu and their characters you can appreciate the script more. Let me explain, starting with the best adapted role: 1. Krishna avatar - Vincent Poovaraghavan Lord krishna is actually a dalit, he is dark-skinned [shyamalam]. He saved draupadi when she was being violated and he was the actual diplomat in mahabharatham. Lord krishna dies of an arrow striking his lower leg. Now look at how vincent was introduced.. he appears when asin is about to be molested and he saves her like draupadi. Vincent is the dalit diplomat, fights for land issue [soil issue to be exact] and dies from the metal rod striking his leg. Oh even five of vincent’s men are drugged at P. Vasu’s.. sounds familiar??? 2. Balarama avatar - Balarama naidu This is an easy given. as the name suggests and the role personifies you can easily get it. 3. Mathsya avatar - Ranagaraja nambi nambi is thrown into water in an act of trying to save lord from being thrown into sea, though vainly. what more clue do you want? 4. Varaha avatar - Krishnaveni paatti During the mukunda song, krishnaveni paatti does varaha avatar in the shadow puppetry. The frame freezes on it for a second. there is the clue. Moreover, in varaha avatar lord actually hides earth so as to protect life forms. Here too krishnaveni hides the germs - life form inside the statue so as to protect. 5. Vamana avatar - Kalifulla khan remember in vamana avatar, lord vishnu takes the vishvaroopa, that is the giant form! Hence the giant kalifulla here symbolises vamana avatar. 6. Parasurama avatar - Christian Fletcher Parasurama is actually on an angry killing spree and killed 21 generations of the particular kshatriya vamsa. Hence the real KILLER… Guess what thats what our Fletcher is! He comes around with the gun [modern upgrade for axe] and kills everyone around. I have to check if he kills 21 people though. 7. Narasimha avatar - Shingen Narahashi first of all the name itself is a play on the words singam [means lion in tamil] and narasimha [the avatar being symbolised]. Lord Narasimha manifests himelf to kill the bad guy and he also teaches prahaladha. In the movie, he shows up to kill the killer fletcher! and is also a teacher.. Lord Narasimha had to kill the asura with bare hands and hence the martial arts exponent here.. get it? 8. Rama avatar - Avatar Singh Lord Rama stands for the one man one woman maxim, kind of symbolising true love.. Here Avatar portrays that spirit by saying that he loves his woman more than anything and wants to live for her. 9. Kalki avatar - Govindaraj Ramasamy As you know, the hero in kaliyug can be none other than the Kalki avatar!!! 10. Koorma avatar - Bush This is the most loose adaptation I couldn’t clearly comprehend. But if you look at the real koorma avatar, the lord is the turtle/tortoise that helps in stirring the ksheera sagara and bringing out the amruth. This essentially creates war among the devas and asuras. Similarly today Bush facilitates war between you know whom… May be Kamal also indicates that this avatar is a bit dumb like the tortoise… |

| 1) In 1978, his tamil movie "Sivappu Rojakal" got released. He
played the role of a Psychopath killer . One year later, a guy called Psycho Raman was caught for brutally murdering people 2) In 1988, kamal played the role of a unemployed youth in the movie "Sathya". In 89-90's our country faced lot of problems due to unemployment. 3) In 1992, his blockbuster movie "Devar Magan" got released. Its a village based subject. There will be some scenes portraying communal clashes. Exactly a year later in 1993, there were many communal clashes in southern districts. 4) We all know in 1996 many people in our country was cheated by finance companies. Our Kamal Hasan has clearly depicted this in his movie "mahanadhi" which got released in 1994 itself. 5) In "heyram"(2000), there are some scenes relating to Hindu Muslim clashes . We all know 2 years later, godhra(Gujarat riots) incident happened. 6) He used a word called 'tsunami' in his movie "Anbesivam"(2003).The word 'tsunami' was not known to many people before. In 2004, 'tsunami' stuck the east coast of our country and many people lost their lives. 7) In his latest movie "Vettaiyadu Vilayadu "(2006) there are two characters called ila&amudhan who played the roles of psychopath killers. After 3 months of release of the movie, the noida serial killing came to light (moninder/sathish) And to add another point to the seven below 8 )He shows the outbreak of a biological weapon(virus/vial) in Tamil nadu --Dasavatharam(2008) |

How about other areas in terms of BO. Watched the movie finally,Padam is entertaining Balram(Chanceless),Vincent,Nambi,scientist and the villian made an impression for me. Songs gelled very well with the movie. Hats off to Ravi Verman. One thought which kept haunting me for a while was that the movie could have reached greater heights if the conflict between kamal the actor and kamal the writer was minimised. |

Does these arguments hold good for any movie / any story? Why only Dasa? In 12B it shows how missing a bus changes the entire life of that hero ! Can't we relate it to chaos theory? Any movie, u take... say Gilli.... the Kabadi match was organized in Trisha's home town... if it was some other place, everything changes ! In Dasa can we say a fisherman commited suicide by jumping into sea from his boat in 14th century and that created Tsunami? Though I am fairly clear about chaos theory, a bit confused how it is relevant only for Dasa story !! Can anyone throw some light on this? |
