Seen the movie. Best effort by an Indian movie to be on par international standards. Excellent i would rate 4/5, only the BGM could have been better. KH as taken maximum effort not show Muslims in bad lite .The movie as been structured as a mirror just showing whats happening in Afghanistan without adding or twisting or being judgmental.Kudos to Kamalji for movie well done.

from an online review
".....Now the most important question. Is there anything that inflames communal feelings that warrants a blanket ban?
No, absolutely nothing.
Even with a magnifying device, it is rather impossible to find portions that might offend Muslims. The bad guys in the film are not Muslims or even the stereotypes of radical Islamists. Instead, Kamal is quite specific about them – they are the Al-Qaeda terrorists.
Since he hasn’t invented the look, feel and behaviour of the Al-Qaeda radicals, the blame against him and the film is misplaced. It’s really surprising that a group of people have been able to stop the screening of the movie in Tamil Nadu on such flimsy grounds. Where does it “target Muslims and their beliefs”? I couldn’t tell......"
idhu podhum - only goes to show that the muttaal groups accusing Kamal of being anti-muslim are actually identifying themselves wholly, ideologically with al qaeda !

Watched it. Liked it a lot. The screenplay was very good in places and the way the Afghanistan parts were constructed across the length of the film ekes out brilliance. I was kind off disappointed with the way Kamal, the director played to the gallery a lot of times. But he made no bones about this film being a complete commercial entertainer, did he. This is no Hey Ram nor is it a Virumandi. Rather it is not even close. But is definitely a film that's not to be missed.

There are other ways of dealing with the film. It can approach the Ministry of Information and Broadcasting and finally the judiciary,” he said.
Gnani said the government could not cite law and order situation to invoke a ban, because it was its duty to give protection when there is a threat to law and order.
He also said it was an unhealthy trend to put pressure on film producers and directors and call them for talks when the movie was cleared for release.
Writer Manushyaputhiran agreed with Gnani and said it was unacceptable to ban a film just because a few groups behaved in an “extra-constitutional manner.”
“The government has set a bad precedent. Tomorrow, another social pressure group might raise its opposition against another film or book and we will reach a situation where we cannot make a film or write a book,” he said.

Fans in State robbed of Vishwaroopam ‘first-day, first show’ thrill
...
As fans from world over, and even neighbouring States, took Twitter by storm on Friday to pronounce their less-than-140-character-long verdicts on Vishwaroopam, fans in Tamil Nadu were left wondering what the fuss was all about and also had reasons to be angry on why they were robbed of the delight of catching the movie “first-day, first-show”.
It might sound flippant but to legions of fans of the iconic stars in Tamil film industry, it has been a ritual to make at times even make extraordinary arrangements to see their favourite star’s movies on the first day or the release, or at the very least within the first weekend. With the ban on Vishwaroopam by the State Government, and with the Madras High Court order on it expected on January 28, even by the best case scenario, most fans will be able to catch the movie only Monday afternoon – assuming that the order is delivered in the morning session.
“Absolutely nothing,” was how A.Manikandan, an IT employee from Hyderabad, reacted when asked if he found anything that could be construed to be hurtful of sentiments of any religious groups. “It is a typical Kamal Haasan movie that we have watched over years. Technically it is better but in terms of content, his movies have always had some dialogues on rationalism and atheism. But that apart there is nothing hurtful.” Vishwaroopam ran for a few shows in some screens in Hyderabad on Friday.
By evening, several reviews came up online, on media websites and personal blogs, that near unanimously said that the contents of the movie cannot be seen as denigrating any community.

Watched it last night in Sydney. Was released in the same cinemas where I saw Thenali with tamil speaking/non-speaking friends during my initial years here. Brought some pleasant memories. I may sound repetitive but I think that is what it is. Very entertaining movie with high production values...
Inta pre-production pre-production nu solluvaangale adha indha padatulerunda kattukanum. Script was tight and should give kudos to the technical crew especially the editor. Never felt like taking my eyes off the screen even for a second - was made so crispy. Was it offensive to any community - for sure not. If one goes with a clean mind, he/she would not even realise that there is such a big controversy happening in TN. Kamal stands very tall as a creator and protaganist. The supporting cast is apt to say the least and he has extracted correct mix of performances from them.
If there was no intermission, people would have definetely thought the end as intermission. Was so racy creating too much curiosity for the sequel. Wish the next one (let this get released first!) comes in the next 6 months
The movie received standing ovation at the end.

Ministry bans ‘Vishwaroopam’ to the dismay of many
http://thestar.com.my/news/story.asp...896&sec=nation
PETALING JAYA: The Kamal Hassan movie Vishwaroopam has been withdrawn from cinemas following a directive from the Home Ministry.
The film’s distributor Lotus Fivestar AV said it was told to stop screening the movie at noon yesterday.
The film, which opened on Thursday, has run to packed houses.
“We will refund those who purchased tickets through advance bookings, or allow them to use it for other films,” the company’s director Datuk R. Ramalingam said.
The film had already been approved by the Censorship Board.
The release of the movie, which focuses on international terrorism, has also been delayed in Tamil Nadu following complaints from Muslims.
Penang Muslim League president Datuk Najmudeen Kadeer had urged the National Film Development Corporation (Finas) to review the film as “it portrayed Islam in a negative light”.
P. Sinayah, who watched the movie on Thursday, said it was a fictional work.
“People should be given the opportunity to watch it and make up their own minds,” he said.
Those who tried to buy tickets were disappointed with the ministry’s decision to withdraw the movie.
“There has been so much publicity about the movie and I really wanted to see it,” said A. Chandran.
“I hope that the Government will reconsider.”
In a statement issued in Chennai, Kamal Hassan said he would take legal action after the film was banned in Tamil Nadu.
“I am appalled at how my film is construed to be against my Muslim brothers,” he said.
“My statements in favour of that community have marked me as a sympathiser.”

You are still making a 'there is a inherent difference in the degree of tolerance' between Islam and other religious cultures.redirected / forwarded to P_R and co to respond to this.
I choose to be a silent observer - have at least two books to read next one month - "The Caged Virgin: An Emancipation Proclamation for Women and Islam" and "Nomad: From Islam to America: A Personal Journey Through the Clash of Civilizations" by Ayaan Hirsi Ali
neenga solradhu unmaiyyaaga irundhu, mass petitions in HC nadandhadhu yendraal, we can continue to suffer from a clear case of mass self-delusion syndrome!
I would still disagree with you and we can have this debate elsewhere.
In any of the arguments consider the difference in the local cultures in various countries and how much loosening there is with religious orthodoxy.
The cultures that are progressive, accommodate change are the ones that are seen as 'progressively decadent' by the orthodox groups within Islam. The radical voices sound stronger and overscore the others - and indeed are more virulent than the radical voices in other religious cultures. But it would still be wrong to read this as a universal representative voice.
If we do so, then we end up sympathizing with people like the Oslo killer Breivik who publisheda 1000 page manifesto protesting against the Islamization of Europe - and the gradual decline of the liberal Christian ethos. He was critical of the govts appeasing the most radical voices in the Islamic immigrant communities (for political gain) thus making Europe to move away from political-cultural traditions to accommodate a regressive worldview.
Orthodoxy will fade into irrelevance in EVERY culture in the world and will shriek on its way out. It is important to recognize that the radicals of one religion have more in common with radicals of other religions than the moderates of their own religion.

P_R - a quick rebuttal - the Pew Research Forum conducts very-well organized polls on various issues with carefully laid out statistical inputs - their findings on the percentage of Islamists agreeing/saying 'yes' to jihad as a means of retribution through violent means, showed a shockingly high percentage of ppl saying yes - with the percentage very high in the islamic countries - there does appear to be a resurgence of radical islam and even in the most liberal Europe, France is facing a huge problem with immigrants from northern africa, who share similar sentiments. All indicative of the idea of jihad - as a means of liberation, both in metaphysical/spiritually metaphorical terms (waging a war against the evils of the human mind) as well as violent means in reality - spreading fast like a meme. I didnt know until a few hours ago that the same TMMK had actually protested against last year's infamous film in chennai - of all places in the world! - the same film that incited violence in the middle-east as well ! while the propensity to identify one-selves with other unrelated members of a certain clan is a social darwinian feature, the perinicious nature of a sense of persecution, combined with the acceptance of a concept like jihad does not augur well - I hope and fervently so, that the TMMK is truely doing what it is doing, for political gains only (donno how that can be justified if it were!) - but am not convinced. Rejection of moderation is a unique phenomenon prevalent amongst the modern revivalist radical islam. Why are the moderates amongst them maintaining an eerie silence now, even if it were after all a film/movie (trivialising the issue to a piece of entertainment) ? barring a Rushdie, who anyway is way too liberal, and Shabana Azmi, I dont hear other voices.
And i saw NOV's posting abt the Malaysian board withdrawing/stopping the screening - and hence adding/editing my posting! - so doesnt it appear as if what was initially a purely localised non-issue is spreading across borders even countries (thanks to the viral internet) and being perceived as a real issue ?

In today's Deccan Chronicle (Hyderabad) front page, an article on HYD and BLR release says:
"In most parts of Kerala, the Rs.100 crore film ran to packed theatres with screening being stopped in just a couple of places.
In Nellore in AP, senior district police officers viewed the film at a special matinee show and cleared it for public screening. 'There is nothing objectionable in the movie', said additional SP, L.T Chandrasekhar, emerging from the show at Narthaki theatre.
Another officer said the film was 'about the US govt. fighting the Taliban and how some misguided youth get sucked into the terror web, so we have no reason to object to its screening.'"
Can SKV/others ensure such info reaches RKFI/Kamal for their use today/Monday?
Can this (and such news) reach the HC Judge today, by noon, and release it today? And used on Monday as well, if need be. SHAME on TN Govt and vested (waste) groups.
The HC Judge should strongly reprimand TN Govt and the group that opposed the screening, and should sentence the TN Govt to repay (in crores) for the loss to RKFI.

Hindraf: Lift ban on ‘Viswaroopam’
Athi Shankar | January 26, 2013 The movement wants the government to screen the Tamil movie and urges the home ministry not to flip-flop.
GEORGE TOWN: Hindraf Makkal Sakti has called on the federal government to lift the suspension and allow the screening of Indian movie icon Kamal Haasan’s Tamil thriller Viswaroopam.
Hindraf chairman P Waytha Moorthy said the removal of the potential silver screen blockbuster from local cinemas was a blow to the freedom of artistic expression.
He said the suspension was uncalled for given that Viswaroopam’s theme on international terrorism was not different from many other Hollywood and Indian movies with similar themes, which were not banned.
“Why pick on this movie when so many Hollywood movies with similar themes were allowed screening?” he asked.
He said Kamal Haasan’s movie was based on today’s international reality and it contained nothing sensitive against any religion or community.
“It was simply an artistic expression via motion picture on international terrorism, the world’s major problem today, not against any religion, culture or community.
“Many governments are now setting aside special annual budgets to combat terrorism.
“Kamal Haasan was merely trying to illustrate the danger of international terrorism via cine professionalism,” stressed Waytha Moorthy.
He said Kamal Haasan’s movies were intelligent and mind boggling provoking right thinking, constructive discussions as well as promoted peace and harmony.
He, as other Tamil movie fans, were shocked with the Home Ministry’s sudden suspension of Viswaroopam until further notice after its first day grand worldwide opening on Thursday.
Film Censorship Board’s Control and Enforcement Division secretary Razak Derahman said the movie was suspended on the orders of Home Minister Hishammuddin Hussein.
According to Razak, the Malaysian Indian Muslim Youth Movement on Wednesday submitted a memorandum opposing the screening of the movie.
“The group cited religious sensitivities so the film will be sent back to Film Censorship Board,” he said.
The Penang Muslims League had also urged the National Film Development Corporation (Finas) to either suspend or review the movie, claiming that it portrays Muslims in a bad light.
Why such a hasty move?
Waytha Moorthy questioned how the ministry could act so hastily based on a memorandum from a group while depriving the rights of thousands of movie fans to view Viswaroopam.
“The movie was reviewed and cleared by the censor board. How can it be suspended now just because some group describes it as sensitive? The ministry has really flip-flopped again,” he said.
Like Malaysia, Sri Lanka and Singapore had also suspended the movie indefinitely on grounds of it being “insensitive to Muslims.”
On Wednesday, the Tamil Nadu government, headed by Chief Minister J Jayalalitha, a former top actress, banned Vishwaroopam from screening in the state for 15 days when 25 Muslim organisations objected the movie.
A day later, the Chennai High Court restricted the film’s release till Jan 28. A judge would view the movie today and decide on its fate.
The movie portrays the versatile Kamal Haasan in a single role of various personalities – a Barathanaattiyam dance master, an Indian anti-terrorist agent and an undercover agent masking himself as an international terrorist to uncover the operations of terrorist groups.
Meanwhile, Indian media reported Tamil movie superstar Rajnikanth calling for the suspension to be lifted.
“I request my Muslim brothers to sit with Kamal Haasan, discuss and release the film without hampering the storyline. He is no ordinary artiste but an extraordinary one who can take Tamil cinema to new levels,” he had said

Today's DC Hyd has an article that says Kamal Haasan's name was on the list of Padma Vibhushan until a day before, but was dropped at the last minute due to the unexpected ban on Vishwaroopam.
Correction: Looks like it should have been Padma Bhushan (and not Padma Vibhushan).

little spoiler alert - not the screenplay but the high level platform
yes he hit the nail @ 11.50 to 12.00( i meant prasanth's review - also agree with venki and LS on him geting better with reviews )
ejactly - the ruthlessness of the Jhih*i s and their background / their perception of america / their reason for war / their lack of judgement / failure to reason etc has nothing to do with islam...it was not even layered as in any other kamal movie ..ut sure the maramandais did not understand that...even if they did - their attention seeiking /vengence driven protest was bound to happen

Everytime I read a review/appreciation about Vishwaroopam from someone outside TN, it is like a child feeling when its mother is ignoring it and having neighbour's child.
But surely KH has lived up to his title 'Ulaganayan'. No one ever can dare to release a movie in this scale without it being released in home state. Surely he deserves the title

Some time back while reading Vikatan's Pokkisham section there was an article mentioning how Kamal vent it out on PVN, the then Prime Minister when a group of Film celebrities went to him and complained about Bombay riots. Kamal personally accused PVN of no action during that meeting and PVN got upset it seems. A person of that level of social consciousness will never do anything to create a problem in society.

Here is an article on a historic case about the controversial film orE oru grAmathilE http://india.blogs.nytimes.com/2012/...n-free-speech/
It was an anti-reservation movie that went under litigation and the court announced that it can't be banned and that maintaining law and order is the state's responsibility.
Note: unlike Viswaroopam, this movie makes a socially erroneous misrepresentation of the issue. It totally discounts the social strides made by TN due to reservation and makes an emotional point as if the most previleged classes are being victimized. Something that Gentleman also did later. It is intentionally misleading and can indeed influence the thought process of many in a socially unhealthy manner (in my opinion).
Compared to Aarakshan - which approached the reservation question more even-handedly - OOG does not confront the issue and make a dishonest emotional appeal (again, my opinion)
But in a democracy THAT IS PART OF THE DISCOURSE. Every side, even the most repugnant ones, have to be heard.
If people above 18 years can vote and elect their government, can't the watch a bleddy film and decide how to react to it??
You can't let the Jawahirullas decide because they threaten violence. Bowing to them is the worst precedent that can be set.
I heard the Kamal poem in MMA yesterday. Udayanidhi Stalin bowed to pressure by some Hindutva goondas - who claimed monopoly over representing Hindu sentiments. That time Kamal was quite miffed but could do nothing as he was not the producer. Now this

If JJ was in mu.ka's place I cannot imagine what would have happened to Ajith. And Rajini had the guts to stand up and clap for Ajith while mu.ka was just beside him. IppO antha Rajiniyae pammuraar. Given the reactions by cine world and other prominent people it is very obvious that JJ is behind this and people are scared. idhu pacha kozhanthaikkum puriyum.

As per my understanding this has nothing to do with Muslim vote bank (savukku has just spoke my mind with regard to the same). This is all because of Kamal's remark on Pa.Chi. TV rights issue gets added to it. She is using the Muslim groups that supported her in the last election and they are returning her the favour, mainly due to fear. If Jawahirullah had not got into this, PJ and all other adi podis could have been easily controlled. If Kerala can do, there's no 'other' reason why TN cannot do. This is the problem only with Tamil Nadu and there can be only two reasons for it. Either government is behind it or government is impotent, that they are unable to control these moronic adi podi religious groups. And I strongly believe it is the former.

I am merely telling that if the situation was the same he would have closed it long back..kaadhum kaadhum vacha maadhri. Because he likes both Kamal and Muslim vote bank.
And with respect to Ajith's issue read Roshan post again. Rest I will leave it to you.

Another word about the Minority Politics:
Nagercoil/kanniyakumari District is well-known for their fight to be with thamizhnaadu rather than kerala and also for the high % of Minortiy eligious people. But when it comes to elections they will vote mostly for a congress/congress kootani even if congress had directly sponsored thamizh genocide in eezham! - That is the way Minority Politics works!

உடனே ஈழம் , தமிழ்தேசியம் -ன்னு ஆரம்பிச்சுடாதீங்க .. எங்களுக்கும் அது பற்றி ஓரளவு தெரியும் .. ஈழ விஷயத்தில் கருணாநிதிக்கு வக்காலத்து வாங்க இங்கே யாருமில்லை .ஆனால் கருணாநிதியை மட்டும் குற்றம் சாட்டுவோரின் யோக்கியதை பற்றி எங்களுக்கும் தெரியும்.

I don't know what is he going to say. He is a former member of Tawheed Jamath (PJ's group). And when Vijay TV was about to air an episode about Women 'covering' in Muslim community; whether it is by force or by choice' in Neeyaa Naana program, it was Ameer who alerted PJ's group to protest against it, after seeing the promos (I have seen the promos too). And finally due to fear, Vijay TV did not go ahead with the telecast. And then PJ said - namma payyan Ameerthaan idha paththi namakku therivichaan - avan nammakooda oru kaalathula nallaathaan irunthaan - ippOthaan cinema adhu idhunuu kaedu kettu pOittaan (something in that line) Originally Posted by Phantom

Let us all accept the reality and stop expecting support from the political parties,film fraternity and individuals. Why would a political party come against these groups and lose the votes?Votes are their livelihood. Why would someone from film fraternity come in support of kamal,when there is a possibility of their future films getting targetted? Individuals like us will not be able to cut any ice.Only the courts can rescue the movie and no one else.If the court also fails, then let us accept that this is India and if you don't have mass on your side you are doomed.

the intensity of anti-muslim hatred which spread then)
3) He actually asks for another round of "Dialogue" where in Kamal has to sit with the Self-imposed Censors of Muslim groups, and asks TN Govt to "facilitate" that dialogue? - i mean - everyone who Knows what he means when he handles an Issue liek this - would know that this is Bull s**t!!

Im thinking Loudly now...
There are a lot of people here who say that Modi would have stopped the radical groups from Imposing this kind of Ban..
And Mu.Ka is also being propped up by Anti-tamil genocidal forces, in this issue, which support him precisely because, he aided these anti-tamil genocidal forces very well.
If it is okay that Mu.Ka actively aids and supports a genocidal regime, but Help Kamal hasssan - then how this kind of view ANY different from some Hindutva Guy who says - We want Modi to be in Power / to rule India so that he wont let these Muslim radicals to run amok??
It is absolutely the Same! Is Kamal Fans okay with a genocidal-abetter coming to save Kamal now - would that be any sweeter/bitter than a religious bigot like Modi saving Kamal?

Ameers Arikkai sounds like another Glorified BullS*t.
Ameer should be careful the next time he gets into a film with maRavar nAttu background; there would be a very real threat to a thulakkan showing maRavars in bad light!
Thats how serious this Mindless crap of the islamist radicals enraging common people now. I dont consider myself an expert but am certainly someone with my ears on the ground.
This should better stop.

This movie is nowhere close to his Virumandi or Hey Ram in my opinion.
Watchable once for the curiosity factor and production values.

What would be the decision of court from the following 1,The movie gets released without cut. 2,Movie passes through few minor cuts. 3,Movie passes but with major cuts. 4,Movie gets completely banned.Now to the second part of debate , since the movie is already available in the internet what would be what use of a ban or a cut going to really be not be mention its already released in other parts of India. Since the movie is already flooded in the internet what would be the result in the box office. Will the court order the govt to compensate for loss incurred by the producer.Lastly if court as to do a censor then why to we need a censor board? Please give your opinion of the above topics.

In so far statements, Bharathiraaja's one was very straight forward and talks only on creator's freedom. Rajini, Seemaan and Ameer and all endorse Kattapanjaayathu in a polished way. No way Kamal and Muslim groups' demands can meet in a single point and coming out with a cut version for this wonderful movie. Apart from censor board no one should have rights to talk about this. Period.

PPl in Blore,
Don't trust Vision cinemas. They have had online bookings open since friday but haven't screened a single show.
Unfortunately, innovative multiplex has not listed any shows for tomorrow.
Q ascendas have opened bookings for tomorrow. It is in whitefield. That part of Blore is in the outskirts and not prone to violence. So, the shows may run. You can check the link below. You can book and try out your luck. If the show is cancelled, they would refund the amount to your account automatically. Even Lakshmi in Tavarkere seems to be a good option to check out.

Most of these preachers have this 'oppressive' mentality when it comes to women. From what ever I saw in the promo of Neeya Naana program - there were only women (mostly Muslim women) who were representing both sides - covering by choice vs covering by force. It would have been an interesting show to learn and understand the different perspectives of both sides. PJ was saying they will never let Muslim women go forward and talk on such issues. And it was wrong on Vijay TV's side to approach Muslim women and he accused them of trying to mislead Muslim sagoatharigaL. He said it was unethical. He also said if at all Vijay TV wants a debate on the said topic it should be between Muslims and non-Muslims, represented by religious leaders. ennatha cholla ! Originally Posted by irir123

the only respite for Kamal would come - if the film gets released in a few days from now - with very minor to minor cuts.
but I have to agree with geno on this - it has gone beyond mere money - Salman Rushdie makes a statement on VR ban ! RUSHDIE !! it can only get bigger and nastier, and once this issue gets international media/attention (which my instincts tell it will), whoever is involved will try to get as much mileage out of it.
imagine an antelope walking past a herd of elephants, only to be ambushed by a lion pride, that has its teeth and claws deeply sunk in it - and a buffalo comes to the rescue (buffalo wud never do it unless it is one of their own!), coz the antelope is tied to a calf - the lion would gather more of its kind and sink the claws/teeth deeper - crude analogy, but that abt sums it up.
the fate will likely be decided next 2 days or so.
Kamal can go for an international wide release - through a big distribution company - and salvage his investment and pride.
but, if and IF only ppl of TN have any ounce of awareness of the seriousness of this incident, they will shun all parties involved. And be extremely aware/ conscious of groups like TMMK etc etc.

Kamal fans in TN, along with TN Artists (if possible), collectively should take this to the Police and appeal collectively. And do this tomorrow.
A hard copy of this must reach the Commissioner/DGP expressing fans' views/reviews, citing there are no "law and order" problems in Kerala, AP, Karnataka and other countries where the movie was released. Actually, Police and Court should handle the Govt/groups in such cases..as is being done now in Kerala and AP. Not sure if the TN police/Court can be woken up now But, you MUST give it a try now
Else, nothing different is going to happen and we all just have to forever.

Legends are not made but are born. From the time they get into what they do they keep creating something unique and special making a mark for themselves. The film industry has seen many such creative individuals and right now everyone is talking about only one man who is setting a new legacy of his own.
He is none other than Kamal Haasan and the reason for discussion is his latest offering ‘Vishwaroopam’ and his presence in that. Even in this age Kamal directed such a great film. Apparently, Kamal at the age of 58 doing such a thing is actually a phenomenal job.
‘Vishwaroopam’ is a class movie, may not be much for the B, C center audience but the action sequences are powerful. Most importantly, Kamal looks young and fresh with agile fitness. For undue reasons the film has been trapped in a controversy but when it comes out, it would leave that Kamal Haasan impact on the audience.

With the court verdict on Monday,obviously no fresh news.
Also as expected it's not been a simple worldwide release(except TN and Pondicherry).
Karnataka as is always the case(I say this despite being a kannadiga myself)has turned to be a coward.
For no reason,a release from Sunday was ordered and that too was not followed resulting in stopped screenings,friction,heartburn.
Hope atleast from tomorrow there will be no confusions.
No news from AP wrt to reception.I guess except some disruptions yesterday,it's been a smooth release across the state.
Kerala - for the way protestors have been chased.A lesson there on how to fight such elements.
That too I was expecting a ban there too with a Congress dependent on Muslim league support ruling.
No idea on the Tamil version in the North release.Read today the PVR did not release because of format issues
Also wrt to reviews,majority has been overwhelming except a few who have felt the 2nd half was underwhelming compared to the 1st and thus ended up as an average fare.
I have refrained from reading website reviews.
Hope nobody went in expecting Hey Ram,doubt Kamal will spluge 60cr on a critically acclaimed,award winning dud.
Can't predict the court verdict.If fair and by precedent,ban should be thrown to the dustbin but if there is indeed a very powerful force behind all this and the judiciary is compromised,SC dhaan gathi.
Hope it doesn't come to that as days,theatres and so collection will get hit.
As it is,what would have been a record breaking opening has been hit.
As for all the arikkais,too little,too late.Rajini for no reason suggests cuts,who is he to do that??????
Ajit doesn't even mention the film,Parthiban and BR are sensible while I understand Ameer called the media and said he will react after watching
What is required is a collective show of support and not press releases.
Am not bothered about the politician statements,fishing in troubled waters kind.
Waiting to see uf I can watch the movie here tomorrow and the court verdict the day after.
All the Best Kamal,a hell lot of people are wishing you well.Truth is on your side and am very confident you will come out unscathed.

Bharathithaasan has such amazing sense of humor and satire! Yes, i was reminded of that too - and i hazard a guess, probably kamal would have recalled this kavithai when he wrote that scene!
Another important note, is that People can look at bArathithAsan's flow and realise that he was the Guy who gave this kind of deadly thamizh nadai, karuthu vaLam to young turks (then) like Mu.Ka who used it to the hilt in their film writing.

The ONLY uncluttered, trouble less region for the film isUS. Its BO is showing more promise. Just Kamalhaasan visiting few screen cannot be a reason for jus the Tamil version to exceed Race2. Infact this US BO is an example for what wud have happened if floodgates were opened worldwide without any issues, inspite of few crappy Dristribution like singaporeஎனக்கு சினிமாப் பத்தி ஒண்ணும் தெரியாது. நம்ம நண்பர்கள் சொல்லும் மேக்கிங், திரைமொழி, மாண்டாஜ், ஆக்டர் கெமிஸ்ட்ரி, பிசிக்ஸ் ஒரு எழவும் தெரியாது. ஆனா பொழுது போகுதா இல்லை சீட்டில் நெளிய வெச்சு எப்படா முடியும்ன்னு அலுத்துக்க வைக்குதான்னு சொல்லத் தெரியும். அந்த விதத்தில் இந்தப் படம் பாஸ். வெறும் பாஸ் கூட இல்லை, பர்ஸ்ட் க்ளாஸ்.

This European overdrive of making public places clear of religious markers is something I find in poor taste. It is exactly the kind of 'secularism' I detest.
It is as if they insist everyone erase all their markers and become an indistinguishable beige and that is the ONLY way people can accept each other. Nothing can be a worse failure for civilization. Anyway, that's a topic for another thread.

really funny discussions going on regarding JJ involved in personally stopping the screening of the movie....there are lots of questions unanswered.
okay if at all JJ has stopped, if there is an iota of truth into it, then why not the opposition (Mu.Ka et all) take advantage of it and say that JJ is personally attacking KH. will Mu.Ka keep silent on such occasions. he will never let go of this chance.
okay if she is banning the movie in TN, then why do we see protests spreading to Andhra, Karnataka, Kerala and now there is a ban in Malaysia..I hear....is JJ the reason for it? We will have to wait and see if it spreads to north too...never heard till now any thing from Delhi Jama Masjid issuing fatwa against the movie...
okay now PMK Ramadoss is asking to lift the ban and supporting KH....but where was he when he protested against Sandiyar/Virumandi and against Rajini's Baba....Chameleon...

All aRikkais are 'enga aathukkaararum kachErikku pOnAr' types. Political and commercial expediences - useless.
I read Hasan Mohammed Jinnah's aRikkai - he has not said what his stand is. Instead he has written in a way to suggest only the majority opinion counts in a censor board. Does he mean he objected and was overruled? He has intentionally not clarified. Quite a sly statement from a lawyer.
indha Jawahirulla avvaLO periya aaLA? Why does even a DMK guy like Jinnah respond so meekly to accusations against him? TMMK suggested that Jinnah was biased towards Kamal, whom he knew personally (or something to that effect)

There is no resurgent prosperity in Gujarat in the last 10 years. This is not to say Gujarat is in bad shape - that'd be a silly thing to say. They have always been a good performing state. It is not like Modi lifted them from the doldrums - like Nitish is doing in Bihar. So we should subtract this "Modi made Gujarat vibrant" media drumming. We can talk about it in the other thread. Perhaps, the Rahul vs Modi thread - the terms of the discussion shall be this: neither shall call the other 'dynasty chamcha' or 'pogrom supporter' when making points supporting Rahul or Modi. Agreed? Originally Posted by irir123

His position defined him to be like that, as any wrong pharsing would be more fuel to the fire.
As for Ajith, he strictly put the threat to the existing system and not personalising it with Kamal or VR. Its understood, and the statement stands unique as many tried to mix everything, where as he stressed prevention is better than cure, just like BR's headache and stomach pain dramatisation of the issue. Also he got be careful Thanks to the hick-ups in the past.
here we seem to put in everything and want eveyone to mention Kamal atleast once in their statement is not wise. Each have their own way of expressing but the gravity is what it counts. For ex., its only after RK's statement did all the rabbits came out of the hat, some are really trying to push hard.
I give you an exemple from my professional experience, to explain to you how effective a statement non-explicative could be : We had an major incident - as usual all concerned support teams started to discuss whether its their reponsibility or not - time was ticking - then one person put the Director on copy in his reply - still confussion and its evening already - then suddenly the email was replied by the Director, and all that it said "I wish you all a very good evening" - 15 mins later the issue was solved.
Moral : I am aware and watching you

P_R - than vinai thannai chudum - so far as the moderate muslims choose to remain silent and allow these things to happen - no matter how much the liberal, secular, non-muslims try to say and do, with the sensible idea of maintaining a sense of sanity to prevailing situations - these things were bound to happen - it was/is the most logical pathway, dont you agree ? once again, why are the moderates representing the muslim minority keeping quiet ? Originally Posted by P_R

even there, I have my doubts - lets say someone like Asghar Ali Engineer (whom I adore especially for his reformist views on gender equality within Islam) makes a statement - the trouble is there exists a huge chasm between the kind of liberal reformist thought process endorsed and embraced by intellectuals like him, and the kind of pedestrian/mediocre orthodoxy of groups represented by TMMK or the Owaisis - a bridge that has shown no signs of being narrowed in modern India post-Ayodhya (the vicious loop goes back to the Shan Bano case) - that even if VR gets released this week, and the matter gets forgotten for the time-being - the issue has brought forth glimpses of a deep-seated problem that cannot be wished away - unless something miraculous happens to bridge this gap from within the Muslim groups
it is otherwise mere wishful thinking that everything is copacetic!
I rest my case

It's not that easy Prabhu. Hijab is not the issue but whether women are made to wear it by force or whether they do it by choice is the question. As long as my observation both in Sri Lanka and Afghanistan goes, majority of the women are forced, especially after marriage by their husbands. In my family and friends circle who ever wears a Hijab/Burqa have done it due to the insistence of their husbands (they were not wearing before marriage). Recently when I visited a family friend the mother of the girl was saying that her daughter was made to wear the Hijab by her in-laws and the girl's father who is sort of liberal was very unhappy about it. One of my cousins almost went to a point of breaking the marriage because of her husband's insistence to wear a burqa (it happened even after a pre-condition that she should not be insisted to wear a burqa). My cousin was strong and she never gave in and her husband had to stop insisting. But in most cases the girl's side is not strong to fight against. In Afghanistan it's even more worse. If the Muslim women are given a choice without any threats of Fatwas, I am dead sure the majority will not opt for Hijab or burqas. Originally Posted by P_R

Identity politics is all about playing victim and blaming the other. Can u name one leader who plays identity politics - religion, caste, language - who is moderate voice criticizing his fraternal groups. The other will brand him a traitor an steal his votes. No one can afford to be a moderate voice. Polarization is the name of the game.
It's only those who have nothing to lose in the political space who can afford to honestly speak the truth.

From: vikatan on 26th January 2013 11:48 PM [Full View]
Managed to watch the movie today...And feel very fortunate have done so, considering the overall volatile situation...
And I would say that Viswharoopam is a top class Hollywood movie made in Tamil. Kamal Haasan is fanta-fabulously brilliant. He has broken new grounds in this movie and we should be really proud of this man...
The guts of Kamal Haasan, the producer, who has entertained the wishes of Kamal Haasan the experimenting director, to make a movie of a genere, which is completely new to Indian audiences, should be celebrated...
I sincerely cannot understand , why the Muslim groups are protesting. There is not even a hint of mockery of Islamic customs or beliefs or faith in the movie.
And, compared to the one dimensional, robotic Islamic terrorists ...seen in our typical Indian movies...Viswaroopam's villains break the stereotype and are refreshingly more credible...
Now , coming to the good parts...
* Kamal Haasan the actor is outstanding...absolutely brilliant...in this movie..
I can safely say that the role of the effeminate dance teacher...could have only been peformed by Kamal.
As before, he has shown again that there are some roles...that only kamal Haasan can do justice to.
And I say this...even though I am a huge fan of Naseerudin Shah and Mohan Lal...
* The action sequences, and war footage, is of a quality never before seen in Tamil movies...
Kamal has consistently scaled new heights in action sequences in Kuruthipunal, in Devar Magan, and Virumaandi in the past.
and Viswaroopam is as as good as any of these movies...maybe even better..The action/fight sequences alone are worth the ticket price....
* Rahul Bose gives tough competition to Kamal in terms of performance....and that is the best compliment any actor can get.
Like Mohanlal in Unnai Pol Oruvan...casting Mr.Bose is an inspired and wonderful choice...
The ladies have done a decent job...Shekar Kapoor does not need to do much...
Kamal, in the past has been accused, of not giving sufficient screen space to his fellow artists...
I think Rahul Bose gets fantastic screen space in this movie...
The not so good parts...
* Viswaroopam is presented as an action thriller... but though there is a lot of action.
the edge-of-the-seat thrill is missing...A racier screen play could have helped.
* The portrayal of Taliban may be authentic and the Afghanistan portion is painstakingly shot, with a lot of attention-to-details..as we would expect from Kamal the director..
and result is visually breath taking...but unfortunately...all these details tend to slow the momentum of a thriller movie..( hopefully the Judges acts as an editor and cuts these portions!)
Kamal the director, could have made up his mind...if he wants to make a movie with a message ...trying to explain the terrorist perspective of things...like how and why exactly he became a Jihadi terrorist ?
Or he just could have weaved more twists and turns in the story line to make it a more nail biting ...thriller...
Trying to combine both...has resulted in a movie with a few open ends...and gaps...(hopefully the part 2 - if released can fill those gaps)
* For some one, who has experienced the magic of Ilayaraja in Nayakan, Mahanadhi or Hey Ram...the music of S.E.L will be a let down...
The BGM sounds pretty ordinary (just my opinion)...The Kathak Song...is great though...
* There are tongue-in-cheek jokes in the first half...which bring a smile...Crazy Mohan would be proud...
Overall...a completely different movie watching experience...And any movie lover (and not just Kamal fans) can be proud that Kamal has once again pushed the envelope and created something very novel..
At a time , when mediocre movies like the Dabanggs or even outright horrible movies like 'Son of Sardar' or a 'Bol Bachan' can make 100 crores business...
I believe Viswaroopam deserves to earn much more... And after all the trouble the man has single-handedly gone through...I hope he can come out victorious...and taste success.
PS..One small note or regret...There is one typical Kamal's Brahmin bashing dialogue in the movie...asking an Iyer girl to taste Chicken...as she would be the best judge to do so...
Now, I am not sure if it is meant to be comedy...but this comment has no relevance to movie or the story line at all...
Perhaps it is added to provoke the Brahmins ?... I wonder, if he does that to re-assure his Periyarist group of fans that he is on their side...in spite of having a 'faulty' birth of a brahmin (just my guess)
and by scoring such cheap points against the Iyers ...is he paying his respects to the Periyarist ideology ? One wonders...

To Ajay (Hi) : Bravo to Sac and Producers to have handled it by themselves. But the issue on hand cannot be settled with statements like "Kamal will act as a muslim in his next film"., when the creator does not wish to bend to any tom dick and harry and edit his creation.

Roshan, traditions will die by irrelevance. One can find tussles like this in every culture grappling with modernity.
Much as compulsion of hijab - like terrorists saying they will throw acid on girls who don't wear - I think a govt 'compelling to not wear hijab' is also unacceptable. France opposes it because in public spaces - like schools- there should be no sign of religion. I disagree with that approach. People should accept and respect each other's traditions. If they choose not to observe them, that's different. But to force them to abandon it because that is the only way to accept each other means a failure of civilization.

That statement of SAC is worth posting in the 'Funny things..' thread. But ultimately it helped the film with an uninterrupted run. Who knows? May be that is the best way to answer these 'No song, no fight. Hence not a film' groups.

I really wish that the movie comes out without any cut and the court orders financial compensation to KH .but i have a feeling that they will allow it only after major cuts just to please the minority(votes) ,i really wish this doesn't happen.but i will not be surprised if this happens.

I did not put it in provoking sense, but as I said the difference is that Kamal did not wish to bend. I dont know if such convencing statements could have solved the issue for VR, but it was Kamal's take and he stood his ground. Originally Posted by ajaybaskar

I can given an example the way Sam Harris puts it - but for now !
I had a summer student back in 2007, who was mightily pissed off that our research building DID NOT provide a room for her prayers! comeon, it was a place of work, not worship, for which there was/is already an inter-faith worship place in our campus - of course, this is an isolated example, and does not bear weightage in terms of any statistical evidence - but when something like the France hijab thing comes up, the same student goes 'see, our values are not respected!' - and she is in the US and identifies herself with someone in France !

Was the request to delete 'offending' scenes from 'Thuppaki' ...also due to the CM's instigation ?....I ask this because I see that there is one group of people who are staunchly maintaining that protesting groups are just politcal tools....And they themselves don't really have problems with the movie...

Saw it on Friday FDFS, in terms of camera work, direction, it was excellent. I am in the film industry, so I know a bit about editing, camera work, location selections, .... etc.
Story wise, the movie was just ok, wish kamal did not include the first half about the dancer bit, every thing involving the Persians Vs the Anglo Saxons were excellent. Did he really film them in Afghanistan?? I mean the locations looked convincing enough, but what about filming permission etc?? The brutality of Taliban extremism is known! (We do not need cinema to educate us). Kamal could have exploited the true colours of the Saxons as well? But he did not, why? We can't just blame the Taliban? After all it was the Americans who made (you know who) to fight the Russian invasion in Afghanistan during the 80’s, and it was the Americans, who killed him as well!
Some of the scene (esp Helicopters flying low) looked it came from Xbox games, looked so cheap, apart from that , could not find any technical faults!
Rahul bose was not good enough in his role, could not keep my eyes off Pooja kumar
It would have been better , if Kamal made a film on Eezham issue, oh well Taliban Vs Saxons would get him more recognition amongst the west (I guess), after all who cares about Tamilians ?
Verdict : a must watch!

So nobody has freedom speech or expression anywhere in absolute sense! P-R needs to learn that at first!

Compared to a faith..for example...which says "MY way is the only way- and even though you are in the wrong way now...I pray that My God will show you the right way... some day.." The second thought...has a much lesser chance to have a violent manifestation...
Note: This by no way , means that the other religions are great...For example, Caste IS definitely a Hindu religious phenomenon, because it is sanctioned in the Hindu scriptures..however much it is argued that it is a question of 'interpretation' ..

Besides I was told even the NY portions were not shot in NY but in Michigan and through visual effects they had changed it! Rahul Bose eye is another visual effects work and so as the pigeon! The car chase, the choppers etc too! The Manhattan, snow etc and the transformation stunts ; all are visual effects in the film! Some of my friends who worked for a studio said all these!!! Sheer Master class of visual effects!!!

Hi guys,
I've been observing this forum for a long time now with good enthusiasm and recently this particular thread has become a mockery to say the least. Wondering if this is being moderated or not. Anyways, on this same context I can say your so called Atheist Kamal has been doing the same thing for a long time now. I mean "MY way is the only way- and even though you are in the wrong way now". We all know he doesn't believe in God, he doesn't need to reiterate this fact each and every time. Be it any film, any audio release function or TV programme. What I mean to say here is if he doesn't believe then stay away, who is forcing him? Don't you think every time he does this, he is poking us? no , you wouldn't cos you are one of his fanatic follower. Can I call you an extremist? What has he done to you in your life to support him to this extent? Nothing!! and you all are so depressed, venting out frustrations and you are accusing us of protesting against our beloved Prophet's cartoons in one of your posts. Just for the sake of 3hrs of entertainment. To those who are getting a wrong impression from the post quoted above that our religion is any such thing here is the truth from the QURAN -Chapter-The Disbelievers, Atheists "Say : O ye that reject Faith! I worship not that which ye worship,Nor will ye worship that which I worship. And I will not worship that which ye have been wont to worship,Nor will ye worship that which I worship. For you is your religion, and for me is my religion.” This is the truth. Islam doesn't advise us to be violent against people of other religion. So please beware before spreading wrong messages from some unknown scholars. IF YOU WANT TO KNOW THE TRUTH, you can ask any of your muslim friends or there are interpretations from the QURAN. Do you want to seek the truth? Perhaps no, you would rather believe someone who shares your point of views and deny the truth. We call them 'Khafir', the one who denies the message given to him.
On this whole context of Viswaroopam, what I have to say is as a Muslim I feel this shouldn't have reached this far with regards to opposing the film, although I feel there is a political motive behind this. At the same time, a person like Kamal deserves this. This is just a reflection of his credibility in the recent years. He has been poking other faiths also. Does he really need to do this in the name of entertainment? We know that terrorism does exist in the name of Islam. Some extremists does this with a wrong interpretation of the QURAN and we all as Muslims face some hard times because of this. Mr Kamal, you do not have to reflect this in the name of entertainment. A film in India is being watched by people of all faith. We all go together for viewing a film in a cinema hall to ENJOY. If there is anything which shows something like terrorism especially anything related to QURAN(like in this film as I hear from ppl), I as a Muslim may not feel offended but definitely will not be comfortable viewing it. If you are adamant in doing this, then release a documentary. Don't expect us to watch these kind of films whole heartedly. We do not want you to show us bad neither do we want us to show us good. Does Mr Kamal's creative intelligence stop him from making a serious film without involving other faiths, religion?

I agree with paramasivam here. Because according to him if know something already then it should not be made as something for example. For example we all know Love is God then why do we need anbe sivam movie. We also know that Thevar community people then why do we need thevar magan and virumandi. We all know if you make wrong decision it leads to pathetic situation then why do we need Mahanadhi. thanks for letting us know all of the kamal movies are not required and we are better off just listening to punch dialogs because most of the dialogs we have not heard before.

ansa400, what I infer from your long post is, you basically not understanding / not willing to know the boundaries / freedom of creative , expression. When you have so many rules and regulations on how an art media should work/behave please stop watching those films that you do not like. There was a person named Voltaire lived in 17th centuary said "I disapprove of what you say, but I will defend to the death your right to say it." Simple.

Yes, definitely. I myself wouldn't watch such movies and thats what I advise my Muslim friends as well if they share the same feeling. That's my question to Kamal as well. When you have problems with faith, religion, then why express about it? I just raised my personal point of view and those of many of my Muslim friends with respect to Kamal's films recently. At the same time, I didn't want to play dumb when something wrong about my religion is being spread in this forum. Hence my post. I still feel this particular Muslim organisation has stretched too far with this controversy.

ansa400 - thank you for your posting
some questions for you - here are a few quotations from the Quran - correct me if am wrong and would much appreciate if you can enlighten me/us with how they are subject to interpretation.
“The unbelievers are like beasts which, call out to them as one may, can hear nothing but a shout and a cry. Deaf, dumb, and blind, they understand nothing” (2:172).
“Slay them wherever you find them. Drive them out of the places from which they drove you. Idolatry is worse than carnage. . . . if they attack you put them to the sword. Thus shall the unbelievers be rewarded: but if they desist, God is forgiving and merciful. Fight against them until idolatry is no more and God’s religion reigns supreme. But if they desist, fight none except the evil-doers”(2:190–93).
“Fighting is obligatory for you, much as you dislike it. But you may hate a thing although it is good for you, and love a thing although it is bad for you. God knows, but you know not” (2:216).
“They will not cease to fight against you until they force you to renounce your faith—if they are able. But whoever of you recants and dies an unbeliever, his works shall come to nothing in this world and in the world to come. Such men shall be the tenants of Hell, wherein they shall abide forever. Those that have embraced the Faith, and those that have fled their land and fought for the cause of God, may hope for God’s mercy” (2:217–18)
“Those that deny God’s revelations shall be sternly punished; God is mighty and capable of revenge” (3:5).
“As for the unbelievers, neither their riches nor their children will in the least save them from God’s judgment. They shall become fuel for the Fire” (3:10).
“Say to the unbelievers: ‘You shall be overthrown and driven into Hell—an evil resting place!’” (3:12).
“The only true faith in God’s sight is Islam. . . . He that denies God’s revelations should know that swift is God’s reckoning” (3:19).
“Let the believers not make friends with infidels in preference to the faithful—he that does this has nothing to hope for from God—except in self-defense” (3:28).
“Believers, do not make friends with any but your own people. They will spare no pains to corrupt you. They desire nothing but your ruin. Their hatred is evident from what they utter with their mouths, but greater is the hatred which their breasts conceal” (3:118)
maybe there is something here I either missed, or something profoundly compassionate and loving here that I am not seeing - either way, I would love to be corrected and educated.
there are other quotes as well - but these will suffice.
As for Kamal's personal beliefs, honestly, I wouldnt care less - if it is his belief that 'paper masala dosa' is awful and says so offscreen and also onscreen, I ignore it, but I like that 'dosa' - but am not going to gather all 'paper masala dosa' lovers and try to ban his film coz he says 'paper masala dosa' is bad!
when I watch his films, in particular, my sense of objectivity are far more sharper than it is with others - because, as an artist, he is special - and hence as someone who admires art for arts sake, want his art to succeed.
am yet to see VR and when I do watch it, will try to be as objective as I can.

From: irir123 on 27th January 2013 07:05 AM [Full View]
kumarsr - am not making any such blanket statement abt Islam - let me put it this way - my deepest concerns are that any organized religion
1. scutlles rational thinking,
2. divides people,
3. indulges ppl in ritualistic BS,
4. claim facts abt reality that contradict many scientific findings,
5. thereby actively promoting intellectual dishonesty.
Islam came abt here thanks to TMMK and co !
there is a lot of intense discussion going on elsewhere - for instance Reza Aslan, a renonwed Iranian Islamic scholar, to my understanding is one of the few 'fighting' the irrational elements amongst the Islamic intelligentsia.
honestly, I would like to be educated - and corrected when am wrong.
to answer your question: religion by its very nature can be regressive, and history bears testimony to this!

Not sure I 'm correctly interpreting what you are trying to say. So in your books directing a film that is non committal about any serious issue is the only forward for Kamal? Can you not see that would be impossible for any worthy creator? I'm genuinely trying to understand here because what's comfortable for you(with respect to a movie) might not necessarily be comfortable for others. So where do we draw the line?

Other than personal bashing, we try to make nearly all topics debatable, contrarian points given space here.
And in the case VR, the role of moderation has already been performed by a censor board here. Bowing down to a bunch of self-serving politicos because they they threaten violence - is just not done. What's so difficult to see here!

Vikatan, no religion is only about what is written. Even those that say the written word is everything Originally Posted by vikatan
We should only concern ourselves with what plays out. What is the point in saying 'rituals are metaphoric' when people do exactly believe in the benefits they confer here and now. Similarly the converse is true.
You will have incantations in the hOmams that pray for most unfortunate and gory miseries on the opponents of those performing the hOmams. It is simply a throwback to the time such things were written thousands of years ago. One must only see the degree of intolerance and hatred directed at the Jains - who rejected the Vedas- that is there in the bhakthi literature. In a milder tone, there is a mutual putting down of Siva and Vishnu in Vaishnavite,Saivite literature. (This is just from what I know - there must be more throughout history). The sthala purANam of Thirupathi has the story of Vedics coming and destorying a simple temple built by a devotee for the Lord. Why? Because orthodox Vedic people back then were iconoclasts and rejected idol-worship. Isn't it mindboggling? Particularly when the Hindu right wing - who tries to hark back to Vedas also take collective offence (on behalf of an imagined homogenous Hindu whole) for invaders like Gazhni - for destroying idols!
There is nearly no way of delineating the source of what we hold to dear to us today. There is a good probability that it is something that our great great grandfather opposed tooth and nail. Something that right wing will refuse to acknowledge. They throw back to an imaginary ideal unchanged as it is handed through time.
Which is why an 'inherently problematic faith' argument quoting scriptures is uninteresting.
What 'true Islam' is, does not matter. The proof of the pudding is in the eating : the muslim world.
Just the same way that it does not matter what the 'true interpretation of' : chathur varNam maya srushtam, means. The fact of the matter is there is a rampant and oppressive caste system, whose supporters quote divine sanction for it.
That said, I do acknowledge the dangerous turns towards radicalism. (The term used is Wahabbism but I don't like it because Al-Wahab is a name for God that means 'the generous one'! To use that to denote something narrow is unfortunate). In every nation a religion can survive only by absorbing the local culture and traditions. But the radicals aim to impose a crystallized and unchanging Arabic form forever.
btw families that have been catholics for several generations in South India are disliked by the various protestant preachers who come in today. They consider them as having strayed away from 'how things ought to be' and thus reserve their special hatred for them! (Joe, correct me if my generalization is wrong)
It is unproductive to say there is something inherently problematic in a religion. That only makes the it easier for the radicals to prevent change.

A good question to ask JJ would be: "Have you or your administration seen the movie?"

I call upon all the shaivites, vaishnavites of TN to join hands with our muslim brothers (n sisters) to protest against this maverick man, who thinks he can convince us that the shivas, krishnas are one and the same.
this is the most important problem/issue facing not just tamilians, but all of mankind - far more important than any other problem that has been plaguing us for a long time and show no signs of being solved in the future as well.
after I see the film, I will do my best to post here every other hidden, real and not-so-real blasphemy Kamal has inflicted on the collective religious sentiments of all and sundry

The ban will be lifted but the judges are going to suggest to make some "modifications" for sure. Only that can help "pleasing the protesters" and screening the movie peacefully. Originally Posted by sakaLAKALAKAlaa Vallavar

Maddy, well said. But Govt and Law must not decide on the ban but the Censor board must have the powers to do so. if you know, Indira Gandhi/Central Govt during the emergency period banned a scene from Sholay where Sanjeev Kumar goes on to take law in his hands and mouths against the police. This is pure non-sensical. Originally Posted by MADDY

People have different opinions and it is upto them to take it in whatever manner they wish. Even in the movie, they show the characters from brahmin community (not to hurt them in any manner or so), I was just saying these to my friends that KH favours them but a couple of them came back saying the brahmins i.e. they are being made fun of which is not required....I was just...numb..for a moment. People have different points and it is upto us how we take it.

I have not seen the film - pls note: if its a bad film, I will be the first one to say so - art is subjective, and its tough to balance objectivity and subjectivity (for ex., I watched 'enthiran' without much hope - coz am not a shankar fan - but IMO, this is the best Rajini film - in terms of performance - in a long time - i had to take into acct many things to come to that conclusion including the way shankar underplayed last 10 min) - aanaa adhukkaaga, kurai sollanumennu sonnaa, its not healthy
my postings were all to do with not just the opposition to the film, but the actual threat to indulge in disruptive activities if the film is released - not just VR, i dont think any film or art work deserves such a treatment

the movie is in no way demeaning muslims and they are showing the humane side of the other family members of the muslim fraternity.
if we go by the protests of the muslims in our country, can we see any one girl/woman from the muslim community coming forward and protesting and asking for ban of the movie. why don't we see? they are clearly an oppressed lot.
you will find it if you compare against the protests against the gang-rape of a victim in delhi, where you saw people from all round the corner protesting irrespective of gender, caste, creed and religion. that was unity against the gang-rape.
but for VR, it is only the muslim community and that too the very core fundamentalists (please note that it is not the moderate or the educated class) against the movie for they don't want to admit how they oppress the family members..this is my opinion...and there could be a lot more.

I quoted an Ameer loving Muslim friend of mine, who just loved Paruthi veeran (as we all did), that after ameers arikkai, people will start abusing ameer with his religion, since he has abandoned Kamal (who supported FESI cause and South indian actor association name) in this critical juncture......
.....so dont shoot the messenger

The Poliical overview is - which many refuse to acknowledge
1) This Kamal issue has already been Politicised, when Kamal (KNOWING FULL WELL about JJ autocratic temper and outlook) bloopered in that chidambaram function
praising him as possible Future PM
2) The Tamil nationalist camp - has a poser : If Kamal is okay withCongress-DMK genocide abettors kootani, and Election Fraudster Chidambarams ascent to pM post and GENOCDIE/POGROM/DYNASTIC SUPPORTERS of congress - he should understand that tamil nationalist camp needs Jawahirull in next elections and so ....

OK. I'm going to stick my neck out to say this. But I still find it hard to believe that JJ is behind all these things even though that Savukku article provides some reference. JJ is quite expressive when it comes to launching an attack against someone she hates. In this case, she would have at least opened her mouth openly against the film or Kamal. That's her nature. I think she did that for the SAndiyar title issue as well.

“விஸ்வரூபம் படத்தை நிறுத்தினால், அனைத்து படங்களும் ஸ்டாப்!” கேரளாவில் ரசிகர்கள் அதிரடி! http://viruvirupu.com/2013/01/27/45547/ …
கேரளாவில் விஸ்வரூபம் படம் தொடர்ந்து திரையிடப்படும் என Kerala Film Exhibitors Association (KFEA)தலைவர் வி.மோகனன் அறிவித்துள்ளார். மத்திய தணிக்கை சான்றிதழ் பெற்ற படத்தை இடையூறு இன்றி திரையிடுவதற்கு போதிய பாதுகாப்பு வழங்க கேரள போலீஸ் முடிவு செய்திருப்பதாகவும், அவர் கூறியுள்ளார்.
படம் திரையிடப்பட்ட பின், கேரளாவின் சில பாகங்களில் தியேட்டர்களுக்கு வெளியே ஆர்ப்பாட்டங்கள் செய்யப்பட்டன. எர்ணாகுளம், இடுக்கி, பாலக்காடு மாவட்டங்களின் சில பகுதிகளில் ஆர்ப்பாட்டங்கள் செய்யப்பட்டதை அடுத்து, காட்சிகள் ரத்தாகின. இந்த நிலையில், பாலக்காட்டில் மாக்சிஸ்ட் கம்யூனிஸ்ட் ஆதரவு இளைஞர் அமைப்பு ஒன்று அதிரடியான காரியம் ஒன்றை செய்தது.
பாலக்காட்டில், ஒரு தியேட்டரில் விஸ்வரூபம் படம் ஆர்ப்பாட்டம் காரணமாக நிறுத்தப்பட்டது. இதையடுத்து, மாக்சிஸ்ட் கம்யூனிஸ்ட் ஆதரவு இந்திய ஜனநாயக இளைஞர் அமைப்பு, “விஸ்வரூபம் படத்தை நிறுத்தினால், அனைத்து படங்களையும் நிறுத்துவோம்” என அதிரடியில் இறங்கியது. பாலக்காட்டில் உள்ள அனைத்து தியேட்டர்களிலும், அனைத்து படங்களையும் நிறுத்த சொன்னது.
இதையடுத்து அனைத்து படங்களும் நிறுத்தப்பட்டன. “விஸ்வரூபம் திரையிடப்பட்டால்தான், மற்றைய படங்களுக்கு அனுமதி” என்றது இந்த இளைஞர் அமைப்பு. அதையடுத்து பாலக்காட்டில், மீண்டும் விஸ்வரூபம் திரையிடப்பட்டது.
மாக்சிஸ்ட் கம்யூனில்ட் கட்சியின் கேரள மாநில செயலாளர் பினரயி விஜயன், “படம் சரியா, தவறா என்பதை அதை பார்க்கும் ரசிகர்களே தீர்மானிக்கட்டும். அதை விடுத்து தடை செய்ய அனுமதிக்க முடியாது” என அறிவித்துள்ளார். கேரளாவில், சுமார் 25 சதவீத மக்கள், இஸ்லாமியர்கள்.
விஸ்வரூபம் படம் கேரளாவில், KFEA, மற்றும் கேரள அரசுக்கு சொந்தமான Kerala State Film Development Corporation மூலம் ரிலீஸ் செய்யப்பட்டுள்ளது.
கீழேயுள்ள போட்டோவில், திருவனந்தபுரம் கைராளி தியேட்டரில், கமல் ரசிகர்கள் சூடம் ஏற்றி பூஜை செய்கிறார்கள். அடுத்த போட்டோவில், அதே தியேட்டரில் இஸ்லாமிய அமைப்பு தியேட்டருக்கு வெளியே ஆர்ப்பாட்டம் செய்வதை பாருங்கள்.

'Vishwaroopam' leaks online, fans keep vigil
http://www.thehindu.com/arts/cinema/...cle4348772.ece
A good quality capture of Kamal Haasan’s Vishwaroopam leaked on an illegal website on Saturday, but the producers’ consultant said links to it were being brought down quickly.
Copyrights Media, a consultancy firm helping Raajkamal Films identify and bring down video pirates, said a complaint had been filed with the Police Commissioner’s office and that 85 links that showed up on Google search on the illegal content had been brought down.
S. Sudarshan of Copyrights Media said only 20 minutes of content had shown up on the website and they had filed a complaint with the Cybercrime division of the Chennai Police. They were also keeping a close watch on possible video links on YouTube and had the capability to shut them down within a few minutes.
Several fans of Kamal Haasan also turned vigilantes online to help Copyrights Media identify possible pirates who might upload the movie files on popular Torrent sharing websites. The email address of the firm — copyrightsmedia.in@gmail.com — went viral.
Several users, who changed their profile images to ‘I support Kamal Haasan,’ took a vow not just to wait and watch the movie at theatres but also help identify video pirates to ensure that the film, which has been facing delay in reaching the cinema screens in parts of South India, does not suffer further losses.
There were claims that some “camera prints” shot inside a cinema auditorium abroad were already out. But most of the files have been found to be fake.

Not a regular Tamil movie ... could be passed off as an English movie. Kamal's knowledge and attention to detail is amazing.
TMMK's logic:
Movie on Al-Qaeda terrorism ==> Al-Qaeda folks are muslims ==> We are also muslims. So you are showing us in bad light!
To TMMK:
What is the connection between you and Al-Qaeda? Why are you worried if Al-Qaeda is shown in a bad light?
By protesting they are basically creating the association with Al-Qaeda. Instead, they should condemn terrorism and say that they are different from the terrorists!

How come the movie is running in Kerala which as more Muslim population than T.N.. How come the Kerala govt which is coalition govt of congress and Muslim parties is allowing the screening and providing security if need. Is jaya heading a lame duck govt which can not handle law and order? To which the answer is no. So what are the real reasons behind the ban. I think the reasons are as follows 1, When first KH sold the satellite rights to jaya tv I think KH didn't clearly tell or explain his DTH preview plans to jaya.(satellite rights include all TV screening rights after the theatrical release).I think KH not only didn't explain this plan correctly to jaya but also he included her arch rival sun group in the DTH deal(here KH was forced to include sun group bec Tata sky which is one of the biggest dth providers initially didn't show interest in joining the the band wagon led by Airtel so KH included sun only at the last hour) this i think didn't go too well with jaya So I think she was behind all the drama when KH was forced to postpone the 11th release.2, I think if KH had completely dropped the Dth plan then i think the problem would have solved but he announced feb 2 as dth telecast date which directly infringes with jaya tv satellite rights bec after theatrical release all tv screening rights rests with jaya tv. So KH was forced to cancel the rights given to jaya tv and had to give to vijay tv which as very good relation with KH and were more agreeable to his dth idea. This i think this was the last straw for jaya patience ,she would have got furious with KH coupled by the KH wishing PC as PM. People like jaya operate largely by fear factor ,if she had allowed KH to get way with this then other people in the film industry will fallow suit and they will lose fear in her and for a megalomaniac like jaya this can be near allowed.So she nicely planed and stage played this drama which is going on now.By playing the minority card she as not only got their support (which will come in handy in the coming LS election) but also she knew no political party will dare support KH and alienate minority vote. Now KH finds himself cornered and pressed against the wall,i think there is only two ways from now on to KH, 1, surrender to jaya or 2, Come down from his moral high ground of trying to be apolitical get his hand dirty and fight against jaya tooth and nail by supporting or joining a party like congress or the dmk .What he can not be now is neutral anymore in my opinion.

Exactly !! This was my point as well, where do we draw the line because some group or the other will get uncomfortable with what's being shown. People's reactions to art is very subjective(esp when it gets to the level of being comfortable or not) and sometimes it can be hard to find a common denominator when it comes to these sort of things Originally Posted by lscain605

Every person who comes on streets to protest is not neccesarily patriotic, his intention could be wrong.
The few people who come to street at the drop of a hat to protest are just fraction of population

Muslims would feel uncomfortable no doubt. They can protest. But, the organisations have no right to threaten. When they have done so, the Govt should have taken action against them rather than giving in to them and banning the movie. Govt's action seems to be mere votebank politics, nothing else.

Why Indian Muslims would feel uncomfortable when a film shows the scenes which is happening in war zone day to day ?

I suspect there is more a DTH angle to these protests than JJ . JJ may have taken a generic stand that she does not want any trouble in the state.
The ownership of solving this issue is solely with KH. He should know that the place he is running the business is not clean and should be willing to negotiate and get the movie released. Like his song 'Anu vidaytha bhoomiyile Aruvadikum anu kadhirdhan', this place is sown full of corrupt/political practices for which he may have even contributed unknowingly. So no point in expecting sanity overnight. He has to know that this society rejected a movie like HeyRam and such standard of movie can never be reproduced even by KH
The more the case is extended, people would lose interest in the movie. So he should neogtiate (avoid cuts if possible) and release the movie. He has to stay in business and for that he has to play a businessman sometimes and not always a versatile film guy. Most importantly here after he should act only in movies produced by others

For people who are still trying to vakkaalathu vaangify for JJ - there can be only two scenarios behind this issue;
1. She is the one who has instigated this through her coalition friends' support
2. If number 1 is not true, then her government is impotent that it does not have the skill and power to maintain law and order.
If Kerala with a much bigger Muslim population and a coalition government with Muslim parties can handle the issue in such a remarkable way there is no reason what so ever why TN government cannot. In both cases above JJ is the only person who can be held responsible.

they are also going through the same legal process that JJ followed. Why should we single out her? I find it very hard to believe that she set the stage first of all by going to these groups to protest against the film. I think she is hesitant to control these groups since the opposition paints a different image of her by clubbing her with Modi. A small step her towards that direction will be blown out of proportion with efforts to paint a gujarat like image for TN. Originally Posted by jaypeenattu

In Sri Lanka the business is dealt through Distributors in TN and they are holding on only because there are issues in TN. Government does not interfere with this and they hardly bother about any Tamil movies that's screened. All chaos is because of the issues in TN. If not for this ban everything would have gone smoothly everywhere. And yestserday a twitter friend said even in Manasa theater b'lore there was no protest or sign of protest but it was stopped after 40 mins. All politics.

Thanks for the clarification on Srilanka. Any govt that makes an independent informed decision on this is OK. Malaysia is doing it. JJ had taken one the safe route by asking the groups to fight in courts. Why single out her? It is a nice imagination that she purposefully set the stage to trap kamal as if the other gruops were saints before. She is cautious not to get an modi like image painted on her. She is well aware of the fact. That could also be another reason for her to go against Sandiyar. If she didn't do that, they can easily say she is supporting the majority caste in south TN like she always does.

I heard a chilling and scary episode in Trivandrum...where an Evangelist was making derogatory remarks about Hindu Gods and Goddesses...and a group of thugs, allegedly belonging to the Yuva Morcha...after a warning or two, calmly went up on stage and chopped the hands of the evangelist....

Kamal need not be socially responsible and all that crap. He has the right to make 1000 movies showing muslims or people from any other religion without worrying whether that would cause national disintegration or anything like that.

Apparently, Ajith fans didn't quite go around asking/questioning other actors in film industry on why they didn't support Ajith during Mu Ka issue. Even informed kamal fans didn't do that. A tiny minority is asking/going after other actors whether they issue statements or not. This is another issue in this thread. Then they brand people. They have every right to do that.

Guys,
I am not saying there is anything offensive against muslims in the movie. But, we can't tell the muslim groups when to feel uncomfortable and when not to. They have the right express their feelings. But, their right stops there. They need to learn to be tolerant. The problem is with the govt. They have no business banning the movie. I am not sure if JJ has any hidden agenda since I don't have much knowledge about TN politics. But, going by the govt's actions, it seems there really is.

Amidst all this, was there any support for Vadivelu? He was 'orphaned' within film industry for 2 years inspite of having potential to attract crowds and make the movie a success. Anyone in the film industry supported him? Gave him a role ?(including KH)
When everone plays safe no point in blaming everyone for lack of support

and pls stop this, ippo support pannuravanga appo enga poneenga type questions. Its not mutually exclusive and all. It was said that he was even invited to a function JJ attended, to indirectly clear the air that ADMK is not opposing anyone to stop casting Vadivel. But he didn't attend that function

2.spread the good WOM with muslim brothers
clearly indicates that there is an intention to hit him financially

From here on they are going to make it further worst for him.After seeing to this movie release even if with cuts ,he should shift to hollywood were can try to act or direct or at lest he will get a AD job and work is way up to becoming a top hollywood director. He could be much more happy in his life instead of being in the treacherous Tamil film industry. Originally Posted by Nasc

If the movie releases after 15 days would the muslim groups feel less offensive? Not sure about the logic behind this.
I talked to some of my relatives in TN about this and they say that JJ is known for vengeful acts. I didn't discuss the details. Roshan told me that Kamal attended P.Chidambaram's function recently and praised him a lot. We all know about JJ's relations with PC. Maybe, JJ used this as an opportunity to put Kamal down for his comments on PC.

Bro, is your ID the short form for "genocide"? ( I ask this becoz 'genocide'is a oft recurring word/theme in your posts)
your signature is longer than quite a few of your posts, and since your siggy is very eye-catching, i thought of sharing a few of my thoughts in public domain itself...
I share your opinion regarding the Tamil genocide. But do you realise the root cause for the thorough mismanagement of the Eelam issue by the Indian Govt?
The root cause is the horrible foreign policy of the Indian govt. which is based on the two monumental blunders of Nehruvian times....
1) Annexing Kashmir valley with India. The fact is that india has NO moral authority to speak against SL in the Eelam issue as long as it continues to hold the Kashmir valley.
2) Political asylum to Dalai Lama.(temporary political asylum is one thing, but making someone stay for 50 odd years and making an enemy out of ur neighbour is a different thing. At best India could have given a temporary asylum and asked him to shift over to Japan/Srilanka/ Myanmar/ US in a few years time)
These two blunders made india fight a war with china, made india enter the Nuke-arm race when China went nuclear, made india spend thousands of crores worth resourses in maintaining an extra large army and ammunition, increased enimity with Pak, made us fight three wars with Pak, made the govts go in minority appeasement mode, had to side with the Sinhala govt to prevent "encircled" by Pak-China.....and so on.
The majority of kashmir valley dont identify themselves as Indians. How long can we forcefully keep 80 lakh people in a country against their wish?
The sooner INdia gets rid of Kashmir valley, the better for everybody. It would even enable the entire South Asia to have a common currency (akin to Euro)
and boost regional trade tremendously...In fact, the '90s would have been the best time to do it, and it would have enabled India take a entirely different approach towards the Eelam issue...If we attempt it now, then the maoists, bodos, nagas, people from malappuram etc, also would want their seperate country/merger with Pak. It is difficult, but still, achieveable.
Just thought of sharing this with you...

Vishwaroopam deals with complex issues - terrorism, threat of nuclear war, and international espionage activities. And all characters seem good and bad. The film starts off with an Indian classical dance teacher Vishwanath's (Kamal Haasan) much younger wife Dr.Nirupama (Pooja Kumar) trying to seek divorce. She is seeing her boss Deepak and plans to settle with him after getting divorce. She hires a detective to check whether Vishwanath has any extra-marital affair, so that she can easily get divorce. The detective finds that Vishwanath has another identity. An identity that he has kept as a secret from everyone! On the other hand, she also finds that her lover Deepak is closely linked with an international terrorist (Rahul Bose). Soon the film shifts to Afghanistan. And more unexpected twists and turns get the plot thicker and make audiences glue to the seats.
Analysis
We all know how great Kamal Haasan, the actor, is. Not many know (at least Telugu audiences) that he is one of the finest directors too. His earlier directorial venture Virumandi (Pothuraju) wowed the critics and movie lovers. With Vishwaroopam, he is transported into a higher level. Set in the backdrop of international terrorism, the film is far superior spy thriller than the ones that we have seen recently in Bollywood. Vishwaroopam is loaded with many layers. It is not mere superbly executed espionage thriller. It has subtext to ponder over.
The movie gives us the feel of watching a slick international movie; visuals, music, action and set pieces are on par with Hollywood action thrillers. In fact, pre-interval action episode is too good to believe that Indian technicians shot it. Enigmatic opening sequences, the entire episode in Afghanistan and the penultimate scenes are superb to say the least.
Well, now to the content. Kamal Haasan seems to have taken inspiration from Virata Parvam from Mahabharat, and the film is also on the heels of The Peacemaker (1997). The film also shows the perspective of terrorists and stresses on the futility of war. But the film's material is too heavy for a normal audience to comprehend it. Personally, I am disappointed with the climax sequences as it is too predictable. And the film ends abruptly with loose ends and asks us to wait for second part. But the second half has enough meat that engrosses.
Technical brilliance apart, the movie also holds the interest because of the impeccable performances by Kamal Haasan and other actors.
Performances
In his repertoire, Kamal Haasan virtually played all kinds of characters and sported getups from a Sikh to American White guy. Now in Vishwaroopam, he appears in two different getups - an aged Kathak dance teacher and the other one is surprise. His gait, expressions, and woman-like gestures as dance teacher are a revelation to watch. And in the other key role, he fits to the perfect.
Rahul Bose as menacing terrorist is superb. Like Kamal, he too has two different portrayals and he carries off them with equal aplomb.
Pooja Kumar is a good find. She looks matured. Only problem with her performance is her dubbed voice. A younger lady should have dubbed for her. The Telugu lines and diction used for her character don't go well with her frame. Andrea has good physique that suited for her role but hardly makes any impact. Sekhar Kapoor and Zarina Wahab appear in brief roles.
The first person we have to praise in the technical team, it ought to be cinematographer Sanu Varghese. His visuals, the tone selected for two different looks of the movie - Afghanistan and America - are perfect to the tee. His superb camerawork lends credence to the movie. He is supported well by art director. The sets created for Afghanistan scenes are realistic and provide a documentary feel. The huts, caves, etc are perfect. Editing and visual effects are marvelous. The frozen frame technique used in flashback sequences is a treat to watch.
Musical score by Shankar Eshan Loy is another advantage. More than the songs, it is their background score that has elevated the movie.
Bottom Line
Vishwaroopam is a complex spy thriller that explores the theme of nuclear terrorism with gusto. Made with topnotch technical values. The subject and some scenes may not go well with normal movie goer. For discerning viewers, it is joyful ride. Watch Vishwaroopam for its making, technical finesse, Kamal Haasan's effort and the detailing. In one word, Vishwaroopam is well-made spy thriller.
Rating: 3.25/5

Kerala is an exception. What happened to countries like Sri lanka and Malaysia? does this mean they have impotent govts?
Sri Lanka-Colombo has a very concentration of Muslims in cities.
Malaysia though a constitutional monarchy is in reality a Islamic state in many matters. The next general election is to held soon. The ruling would not take the risks. Even if the majority Malays remain silent on this as they do not watch Tamil movies in the cinema, we have our Indian Muslims to take the matter to the relevant authorities.
Singapore. The media and business is heavily controlled by Indian Muslims. Add to that they had an important by-election yesterday which they eventually lost i believe.
Thank God i live in the West to watch the movie and any other work of art that i want to.

My few puls about the movie ...... ( spoilers minimised to max extent )
# The "nalinam" shown by Viz as the kathak dancer ...... would force a smile into the cheeks of someone who doesnt smile even if his life depended on it.
# Obviously, that sets the background baseline for the so called Transformation
# "Transformation" scene ...... theater kulla oru "Transformer" vedicha effect
# Sound clarity not great in the theater ..... dialogues from non tamil actors were sometimes lost
# Read some reviews describing Afghan portions as a bit dragging. I totaaly disagree. Those for me were the best portions of the movie and left me longing for more.
# Its in the Afghan portions where KH stamps his directorial imprints ..... The oonjal scene , housefly on the gun tip, Rahul Bose's cold indeifference while lives are taken, etc
# Both the times I watched, the audience clapped when INTERMISSION ...... thats not because of some terrific twist just before the interval, but as a collective, holistic appreciation to the 80 minutes that had gone.
# Camera work , visuals, not to forget costumes ........ feel proud if you are a Tamilian. Period.
# The usual scientific detailing KH is known for ( which may not be readily understood by most people ) ..... Cesium, Faraday shield, Geiger Muller counter etc
# The fantastic way of leaving some questions unanswered, commiting on a sequel, and then showing some time spliced flash backs ..... hints that the sequel is going to cover events that happened before the timeline of this movie and also the future.
# Nirupama, the Nuclear Oncologist, who shows off her cleavage, wears the most trendy outfits, loves chicken, but speaks the most orthodox Iyer baashai. ( Me too Iyer, loves chicken and mutton and also beef for that matter, but I can speak normal Tamil ). In other words, Nirupama could either have been shown as a veggie, or she could been shown to speak normal tamil.
# Having said that, Pooja Kumar = 100 times better than Dasa Asin
# Touching on the touchy part now ........ YES. There is nothing Muslim friendly about this film as KH claimed. Well, there is nothing Christian / Hindu / Jain etc friendly too. the focus is on Jihadi extremism only. Unfortunately, how does one make a movie about Jihadi outfits and not show the passioante religiousity that is integral to their lives. ( and death, of self and others too sometimes).
Therefore, the only options left would be to make an unrealistic movie showing Taliban or to make movie on some other thing such as saffron terror, ethnic killings, racism, corruption, xenophobia, motion sickness, voyeurism, sexual promiscuity, imperialism, recession, alcohol manufacture process, natural disasters, etc etc etc.
Accusation number one ...... Jihadi terrorists shown as praying frequently. ( Fact only being shown )
Accusation number two ..... in that case, why dont u make a movie on ethnic homicide that happened , or saffron terror and all. ( Ithu enna kodumai sir ?? Naan daily lunchukku biriyani thaan saappiduven. Naan yaaroda biriyaaniya thirudi thinnaalo, illa biriyaani thinnuttu elumba unga mela thookki adichaalo, illa fulla biriyaani kattittu unga gardenla vanthu aai ponaalo, condemn me. \but how can u ask, why biryaani again ? why dont u eat pasta or sambar satham or bhel puri ??? )
Ok ..... so the threat is if you choose that topic and show some reality, disharmony will erupt. ( Remember the collector who comes to reopen the temple ? Maayan to collector ..... " Thiruvizha yaaru edukkanumnu neengale sollunga ? illainna athukkum thagaraaru varum." Collector answers "Thagaraaru varanumnu nenaichaa thaane varum ? Nenaikkatheenga sir. "
MOVIE RATING ( Acting 7 on 10, writing 8 on 10, direction 9 on 10, technicalities 9 on 10, music 6 on 10 )
TOTAL AVERAGE --- 7.8 ON 10. ( would rate Dasa 7, Nayakan 7.5, Thevar Magan 8, Hey Ram 8.2 )
By the way, I am quoting Biryaani example to express my anguish against Kamal's softness towards the potential protestors, asking for that Biriyaani non sense and all from his "brothers".

Hi guys! I know few guys who worked in the film in visual effects! Entire Afghan portions were filmed in Chennai and it was complete visual effects work to make it look like Afghan! Besides I was told even the NY portions were not shot in NY but in Michigan and through visual effects they had changed it! Rahul Bose eye is another visual effects work and so as the pigeon! The car chase, the choppers etc too! The Manhattan, snow etc and the transformation stunts, Matrix kinda shots etc; all are visual effects in the film! Some of my friends who worked for a studio said all these!!! Sheer Master class of visual effects!!! We should be proud of Indian film meets up Hollywood in visual effects!!!!!

Listen, the verdict is at the court to decide! I am a hardcore fan of Kamal and it hurts me after seeing the film there is not even a single dialogue or shot which could insult Islam and or their religion! It's a surprise! However rather debating here what could have gone wrong lets share and enjoy what we liked in this film! In this storm we are intending to overlook the class of the film in every aspect! As a tamilian am so proud that a Tamilian could lift his head high and walk through Hollywood crowd! Why can't we encourage and talk about the positives of the film than keep debating about things that is not in our hands at this moment! What I mean is it is in the court! Let the justice decide what vishwaroopam deserves! We can smile happily and handle these issues much more objectively once the verdict comes out...! Just keep repeating about all censor boards; not only in India but worldwide had given clearance! There should be something else behind this saga! We will know by tomorrow!!! Until then we enjoy talking about a history in the making which will make every Indian proud especially every Tamilian for making this film with such high standards!!!! Lets stand up and salute an Indian called KAMAL HAASAN!!!!

Unless the movie is released without any cuts, the people will claim he offended the muslim community hence the cuts.
Unless the people of the muslim community especially the youth who defend such actions understand they are being used for gaining political mileage and the moderates within the community gain more voice the public perception is irrelevant IMO.
Did you see some of the pages on fb demanding a ban n Vishwaroopam?
Its disheartening and frightening to see young people repeat whatever nonsense is spouted by these demagogues.

Thank you for the informative and insightful discussions. Idhellaam fine.
If the Judge revokes the ban tomorrow without a single cut (going by the unanimous +ve reviews from across the world that nothing is so offensive deserving a ban/scene cut), that would be the ideal judiciary - respect to Judicial system and true victory for the artistes. The ruling should mention about the loss incurred (apprx.), and reprimand the fringe group/Govt with a warning. I'll be surprised and if TN turns out to be such an ideal place.
If the verdict is to release with cuts, RKFI has two options:
1) Accept the cuts, release and get back whatever RKFI can, letting go of the loss incurred for Fri-Mon, unless fans can make up for it. Difficult but possible.
2) Else, approach higher court while the ban continues atleast upto Feb 10th (and beyond!). DTH (Tamil) will also get put off then. That means more loss initially. Hopefully, NI will still release..inspite of protests.
Option 1) is more practical that any other artist would opt for. Kamal might too, living up to Anbe Sivam's climax dialogue and Anbe Allah (as told during the US premier) approach.
Option 2) is the path never taken before in India..which is Kamal's strength With fans support from worldwide and NI release, he/we should make it the 1st hit/BB in Tamil without releasing in TN. That should make him feel proud (and shame on the TN Govt./politics) and worth all these difficulties.
Personally, I would prefer this option (2). But, hoping our Judicial system is strong enough (inspite of the politics) and revoke the ban and release the movie with no cuts.

radiochandra sir,
that was an good review.
உச்சந்தலையில ஆணி அடிக்கிற மாதிரி சொல்லிடிங்க. அந்த குதிரையின் உயிர் ஊசலாடிக்கொண்டு இருப்பதைப் பார்த்து கருணைக்கொலை செய்துவிட்டுப் போவது.. பல வருடங்களுக்கு நினைவில் நிற்கும் காட்சிப் பதிவு. கடுகளவு வந்துபோனாலும், அந்த இமித்யாஸ் பாத்திரம்.. எவ்வளவு அழகா ரத்தினச் சுருக்கமா கைளாளப்பட்டிருக்கிறது. ஆமாம். ஆப்கன் காட்சிகள் நீளாதா என்ற ஏக்கத்தை ஏற்படுத்துகிறது. அடர்த்தியான கதை நகர்வுகள்.Read some reviews describing Afghan portions as a bit dragging. I totaaly disagree. Those for me were the best portions of the movie and left me longing for more.
# Its in the Afghan portions where KH stamps his directorial imprints ..... The oonjal scene , housefly on the gun tip, Rahul Bose's cold indeifference while lives are taken, etc

Legends are not made but are born. From the time they get into what they do they keep creating something unique and special making a mark for themselves. The film industry has seen many such creative individuals and right now everyone is talking about only one man who is setting a new legacy of his own.
He is none other than Kamal Haasan and the reason for discussion is his latest offering ‘Vishwaroopam’ and his presence in that. Even in this age Kamal directed such a great film. Apparently, Kamal at the age of 58 doing such a thing is actually a phenomenal job.
‘Vishwaroopam’ is a class movie, may not be much for the B, C center audience but the action sequences are powerful. Most importantly, Kamal looks young and fresh with agile fitness. For undue reasons the film has been trapped in a controversy but when it comes out, it would leave that Kamal Haasan impact on the audience.

Viswaroopam saga: National laureate pens a poem
National Laureate A Samad Said questions the suspension of the Tamil movie when the ministry saw no issues with screening a violent Hindi flick.
http://www.freemalaysiatoday.com/wp-...id-300x199.jpg
PETALING JAYA: National Laureate A Samad Said today questioned the logic in suspending the screening of Tamil movie Viswaroopam while allowing the screening of Hindi film Race 2.
Penning a poem on his Facebook page, he said that Viswaroopam is alleged to be sensitive to Muslims in India whereas Race 2 showcased violence.
The poem reads:
“Vishwaroopam’ didakwa hina komuniti Islam di Madras;
‘Race 2’ pula dedah jenayah niagawan yang paling atas.
Satu tidak sempat kutonton; yang ditonton sangatlah gerun.
Terhimbas wajah masyarakat— nafsu gelojoh paling dahsyat!
Viswaroopam is a spy thriller movie directed, co-produced and starring South Indian film star, Kamal Haasan.
The movie revolves around international terrorism and Kamal Haasan dons three roles – an Indian classical dancer, Indian anti-terrorism agent and an agent who infiltrates a terrorist group.
Viswaroopam was screened before it was suspended.
Race 2 is a sequel to Race that showcases the crime underworld in Turkey. The film stars Saif Ali Khan, Deepika Padukone, Anil Kapoor, John Abraham, and Amisha Patel.
Yesterday, Fim Censorship Board’s enforcement and control division secretary Razak Derahman told FMT that the screening of Viswaroopam was suspended on the orders of Home Minister Hishammuddin Hussein.
According to Razak, the Malaysian Indian Muslim Youth Movement sent a memorandum to the Home Ministry on Wednesday to oppose the screening of the movie that is alleged to hurt the religious sensitivities of Muslims.

Junior Vikatan Article Excluding the Movie Story. That apart, most of the things are known, and some things looks like JuVi's own Gupsaa! and some parts(esp Rajini) are outdated!
விஸ்வரூபம் - முழுக்கதை!
'விஸ்வரூபம்’ என, கமல் என்ன நினைத்துத் தலைப்பு வைத்தாரோ... பிரச்னைகளும் விஸ்வரூபம்
எடுக்கிறது. 'சட்டம்-ஒழுங்கைப் பாதிக்கும்’ எனச் சொல்லி தமிழக அரசு இந்தப் படத்துக்கு
15 நாள் தடை விதிக்கும் அளவுக்கு விவகாரம் செம சீரியஸ். திரைக்குப் பின்னால் நடந்த கதை,
படத்தின் திரைக்கதையைவிட பரபரப்பானது. கோலிவுட் முதல் கோட்டை வரை விசாரித்தபோது
வந்து விழுந்த தகவல்களை அப்படியே தருகிறோம்.
*கமல் அலுவலகத்தில் நடந்த பேச்சுவார்த்தை! *
*துப்பாக்கி’ படம் ரிலீஸ் ஆனபோதே முஸ்லிம்கள் போர்க் கொடி தூக்கினர். அப்போது, 'விஸ்வ
ரூபம்’ படத்திலும் முஸ்லிம்களைத் தவறாக சித்திரித்து இருக்கிறார்கள் என்ற பேச்சும் கூடவே
கிளம்பியது. 'முன்கூட்டியே எங்களுக்குத் திரையிட்டுக் காட்டிய பிறகுதான் படத்தை கமல்
வெளியிட வேண்டும்’ என குரல் கொடுக்க ஆரம்பித்தன முஸ்லிம் அமைப்புகள்.
*' 'விஸ்வரூபம்’ முஸ்லிம்களுக்கு எதிரான படம் அல்ல. அப்படிச் சந்தேகப்படும் இஸ்லாமியர்கள்
படம் பார்த்துவிட்டு, தேவை இல்லாமல் கமலை சந்தேகப்பட்டு விட்டோமே என்று மனதுக்குள்
வருந்துவர். சகோதரனைச் சந்தேகப்பட்டதற்குப் பிராயச்சித்தமாக அண்டா அண்டாவாக முஸ்லிம்கள்
பிரியாணி விருந்து போட வேண்டும். அந்த விருந்தில் கலந்துகொள்ள நான் பசியுடன்
காத்திருக்கிறேன்'' என அறிக்கை விட்டார் கமல். *
ஜனவரி 11-ம் தேதி படம் வெளியிடப்படும் என்ற அறிவிப்பு வெளியான நேரத்தில், 24 முஸ்
லிம் அமைப்புகள் மற்றும் கட்சிகளின் கூட்டமைப்புப் பிரதிநிதிகள் ஆழ்வார்பேட்டையில் உள்ள
ராஜ்கமல் அலுவலகத்தில் கமலை சந்தித்தனர். வெளிநாடுகளில் விநியோகஸ்தராக இருக்கும்
முஸ்லிம் ஒருவர்தான் இந்தச் சந்திப்புக்கு ஏற்பாடு செய்தார்.
அப்போது சுமுகமாகப் பேச்சுவார்த்தை நடந்தது. ''முஸ்லிம்களோடு நல்ல நட்புஉணர்வு கொண்டவன்
நான். அவர்களைக் கொச்சைப்படுத்தி படம் எடுக்க மாட்டேன்'' என்றார் கமல். ''துப்பாக்கி படக்
குழுவினரிடம் எங்களைப்பற்றி கேட்டுப் பாருங்கள். எங்களின் செயல்பாடு பற்றி நீங்கள்
வைத்திருக்கும் பிம்பம் உடையும்'' என்று, கமலிடம் சொன்னது முஸ்லிம் கூட்டமைப்பு.
இறுதியாகப் பேசிய கமல், '' 'விஸ்வரூபம்’ இஸ்லாமியர்களுக்கு எதிரான படம் அல்ல. இந்து
முன்னணியினருக்கு எதிரான படம். ராமகோபாலன் படத்தைப் பார்த்து விட்டு எதிர்ப்பார்'' எனச்
சொன்னார். பேச்சு வார்த்தையின் இறுதியில், திரைக்கு வருவதற்கு முன் படத்தை போட்டுக்காட்ட
ஒப்புக்கொண்டார் கமல்.
அதன்பிறகு, 'விஸ்வரூபம்’ படம் பற்றி தலைமைச் செயலாளருக்கு கோரிக்கை கடிதம் ஒன்றையும்
கொடுத்தது முஸ்லிம் கூட்டமைப்பு. அந்தக் கடிதத்தின் அடிப்படையில் முஸ்லிம் கூட்டமைப்
பினரை உள்துறைச் செயலாளர் ராஜகோபால் 15 நாட்களுக்கு முன் அழைத்துப் பேசினார்
. ''படத்தில் இஸ்லாமியர்களைக் கொச்சைபடுத்திக் காட்சிகள் இருந்தால், அதை நீக்க வேண்டும்''
என ராஜகோபாலிடம் கூறினர் முஸ்லிம் பிரதிநிதிகள். ''மதநல்லிணக்கம் எந்த வகையிலும்
கெட்டுவிடக் கூடாது என்பதில் தமிழக அரசு உறுதியாக இருக்கிறது. எந்தச் சமூகத்தையும்
இழிவுபடுத்தி, அவர்களைக் காயப்படுத்துவதை அரசு வேடிக்கை பார்த்துக்கொண்டு இருக்காது''
என்று சொன்ன ராஜகோபால், ''ரிலீஸுக்கு முன்பே படத்தை நீங்கள் பார்க்க விரும்பினால், அதற்கான
ஏற்பாடுகளை அரசே செய்து தரும்'' என்று உறுதி அளித்தார். ''கமலே படத்தைக் காட்டுவதாகச்
சொல்லி இருக்கிறார். அதனால் தேவைஇல்லை'' என்று சொல்லிவிட்டுக் கிளம்பினர்.
*படம் பார்த்த முஸ்லிம்கள்!*
படத்தை இரண்டு நாட்களுக்கு முன், போட்டுக்காட்டுவதாகச் சொன்னார் கமல். ஆனால், 'ஐந்து
நாட்களுக்கு முன்பே காட்ட வேண்டும்’ என்றது முஸ்லிம் கூட்டமைப்பு. இறுதியில், நான்கு
நாட்களுக்கு முன் என முடிவானது. தேதி குறிக்கப்பட்ட தினத்தில் படத்தைப் பார்க்க
முடியவில்லை. 'டி.டி.ஹெச் பிரச்னை காரணமாக ரிலீஸ் தேதி தள்ளிப்போகிறது’ என,
முஸ்லிம்களை பொறுத்துக்கொள்ளுமாறு கேட்டுக்கொண்டார் கமல். அப்போதும்கூட,
''இஸ்லாமியர்களைப் புண்படுத்தும் வகையில் படத்தை எடுக்கவில்லை. படத்தின் ஹீரோவே
முஸ்லிம்தான். படத்தைப் பார்த்துவிட்டு நீங்கள் சந்தோஷப் படுவீர்கள்'' என்று பீடிகை போட்டு
இருக்கிறார் கமல்.
படம் ரிலீஸ் தேதி ஜனவரி 25 என அறிவிக்கப்பட, 21-ம் தேதி படத்தை முஸ்லிம்களுக்குக் காட்ட
முடிவு செய்யப்பட்டது. ''தொழுகை பாதிக்கும் என்பதால், காலையில் படத்தைக் காட்ட
வேண்டும்'' என்றனர் முஸ்லிம் கூட்டமைப்பினர். 'மாலையில்தான் பார்க்க வாய்ப்பு இருக்கிறது.
தொழுகைக்கு என் அலுவலகத்திலேயே ஏற்பாடு செய்து தருகிறேன்'' என்று சொன்னார் கமல்.
மாலையில், ராஜ்கமல் அலுவலகத்தில் முஸ்லிம் கூட்டமைப்பு நிர்வாகிகள் கூடினர். அங்கேயே
மாலை நேரத் தொழுகையை முடித்துவிட்டு, படத்தைப் பார்க்க ஆரம்பித்தனர். அலுவலகத்தில்
இருந்த ஹோம் தியேட்டரில் 'விஸ்வரூபம்’ திரையிட்டபோது கமலும் அவர்களுடன் அமர்ந்து படத்தை
முழுமையாகப் பார்த்தார்.
படத்தின் முதல்பாதி முடிந்து இடைவேளை விட்டபோது, படம் பார்த்த முஸ்லிம்கள் கொஞ்சம் அப்செட்
ஆனார்கள். 'படத்தின் காட்சிகள் ஒவ்வொன்றுக்கும் என்னிடம் 300-க்கும் மேற்பட்ட ஆதாரங்கள்
இருக்கின்றன’ என்று, இடைவேளையின்போது சொன்னார் கமல். தாலிபான்கள் பிரத்யேகமாகப்
பயன்படுத்தும் தொப்பி, ஆர்ட் டைரக்டர், காஸ்ட்யூம் டிசைனர், படத்தில் ஹெலிகாப்டர்களுக்கு
அடிக்கப்பட்ட பெயின்ட் பற்றி எல்லாம் பேசி இருக்கிறார்கள்.
இரண்டாம் பாதிப் படத்தைப் பார்த்த முஸ்லிம் கூட்டமைப்பினர் கோபத்தின் உச்சத்துக்குச் சென்றனர்.
படம் முடிந்ததும் சொல்லிவைத்ததுபோல கமலிடம் ஒரு வார்த்தைக்கூட பேசாமல் அவர் பக்கம்
திரும்பிக்கூட பார்க்காமல் கிளம்ப ஆரம்பித்தனர். அப்போது, அவர்களின் கருத்தைக் கேட்பதற்காக
வாசலில் நின்று இருந்த கமலுக்கு, அவர்கள் எதுவும் பேசாமல் போனதால் முகம் மாறியது.
கடைசியாக வந்த இந்திய தவ்ஹீத் ஜமாத்தின் செயலாளர் முனீரிடம், 'படம் பிடித்திருக்கிறதா?
எதுவும் கருத்து சொல்லாமல் போகிறீர்களே?’ என்று கமல் கேட்க, 'எதுவும் சொல்வதற்கு இல்லை.’
என்று முனீர் சொன்னார். 'ஏற்கெனவே நிறைய சங்கடங்களைச் சந்தித்து இருக்கிறேன். இன்னும்
சங்கடங்களை உண்டாக்கி விடாதீர்கள்’ என்று கமல் சொல்ல, 'அல்லாஹ் உங்களைக் காப்பாற்றுவார்’
என்று சொல்லிவிட்டுக் கிளம்பினார் முனீர். அப்செட்டான நிலையில், 'விஸ்வரூபம்’ பிரிமியர்
ஷோவுக்காக அன்றைய இரவே அமெரிக்கா கிளம் பினார் கமல்.
*கமிஷனர் அலுவலகத்தில் கொந்தளிப்பு!*
இரவு 10 மணிக்கு படம் முடிந்து கிளம்பிய டீம், அப்போதே ஒரு ஓட்டலில் நள்ளிரவு வரை
ஆலோசித்தது. 'முஸ்லிம்களுக்கு எதிராகக் காட்சிகள் இருந்தால், அதை மட்டும் நீக்கிவிட்டு
படத்தை வெளியிட சம்மதிக்கலாம்’ என முன்பு முடிவு செய்து இருந்த முஸ்லிம்
கூட்டமைப்பினர், 'மொத்தப் படத்தையும் தடை செய்ய வேண்டும்’ என்ற முடிவுக்கு வந்தனர்.
அடுத்த நாள் 22-ம் தேதி, 'படத்தைத் திரையிட அனுமதிக்கக் கூடாது’ என்ற கோரிக்கையுடன்
சென்னை போலீஸ் கமிஷனர் ஜார்ஜை சந்தித்தனர்.
அவர்களோடு மனிதநேய மக்கள் கட்சி எம்.எல்.ஏ. ஜவாஹிருல்லாவும் வந்தார். கிட்டத்தட்ட ஒரு
மணி நேரத்துக்கும் மேல் நடந்த சந்திப்பில், படத்தின் ஒவ்வொரு காட்சியையும் ஜார்ஜிடம்
விவரித்தனர். 'தொழுகை நடத்தி விட்டு தீவிரவாதச் செயல்களில் ஈடுபடுவதாகப் படத்தில்
அப்பட்டமாக நிறைய இடங்களில் காட்டுகிறார்கள். இஸ்லாமியர்களின் புனித நூலான குர்-ஆன்,
தீவிரவாதிகளின் கையேடாகச் சித்திரிக்கப்பட்டு இருக்கிறது’ என் றனர். 'பைபிள்
படித்துவிட்டு சர்ச் சுக்குள் இருந்து வரும் ஒருவர் குண்டு வைப்பதாக காட்சி இருந்தால்,
நீங்கள் எப்படி உணர்வீர்கள்?’ என்று கிறிஸ்தவரான ஜார்ஜிடம் ஒருவர் கேள்வி எழுப்பினார்.
சந்திப்புக்குப் பிறகு, வெளியே வந்த முஸ்லிம் கூட்ட மைப்பினர் படத்தைப்பற்றி முதல்
முறையாக மீடியாவிடம் பேசினர். ' 'விஸ்வரூபம்’ வெளியிடப்பட்டால் தேவை இல்லாத
பிரச்னைகள் ஏற்படும். மாமன் மச்சானாக வாழ்ந்து வருபவர்களிடையே தேவை இல்லாத சங்கடங்களை
உண்டாக்கி, சட்டம்- ஒழுங்குக்கு பாதிப்பு ஏற்படலாம். இந்தப் படத்தை அரசு தடை செய்ய
வேண்டும். இல்லையெனில் உயிரைக் கொடுத்தாவது முஸ்லிம்கள் தடை செய் வார்கள்’ எனக் கொந்தளித்தனர்.
*படத்துக்கு 15 நாட்கள் தடை!*
இந்த விஷயங்களை எல்லாம் அமெரிக்காவில் இருந்தே விசாரித்துக் கொண்டு இருந்தார் கமல்.
அதற்கு அடுத்த நாள் 23-ம் தேதி உள்துறைச் செய லாளர் ராஜகோபாலை கோட்டையில் சந்தித்தனர்
முஸ்லிம் கூட்டமைப்பினர். 'உங்கள் பக்கம்தான் அரசு இருக்கிறது என்ற நிலைப்பாட்டில் எந்த
மாறுதலும் இல்லை’ என்ற ராஜகோபால், 'பட ரிலீஸ் தேதிக்கு நெருக்கத்தில் வந்து இப்படி
முறையிடுகிறீர்களே...’ என்றும் கேட்டு இருக்கிறார்.
'கமல் சினி மாவில் நல்ல நடிகர். நிஜ வாழ்க்கையிலும் அவர் நடிகர் என்பது இப்போதுதான்
புரிந்தது. ரிலீஸ் தேதிக்கு நெருக்கத்தில் படத்தைக் காட்டி அவர்தான் எங்களை இக்கட்டில்
தள்ளிவிட்டார்’ என்று பதில் சொன்னார்கள். 'வழிபாட்டு முறைகள் தீவிரவாதத்தைத்
தூண்டுவதுபோல இருக்கிறது’ என்று காட்சிகளையும் ராஜகோபாலிடம் விவரித்தனர்.
'கோரிக்கைகள் நியாயமானதாக இருந்தால், நிச்சயம் அரசு பரிசீலிக்கும்’ என்று வாக்குறுதி
கொடுத்தார் ராஜகோபால்.
காலையில் இந்தச் சந்திப்பு நடந்து முடிந்த பிறகு, கொடநாட்டில் இருந்து ஜெயலலிதா
கோட்டைக்கு வந்தார். 'விஸ்வரூபம்’ பட விவகாரம் தொடர்பாக தலைமைச் செயலாளர் ஷீலா
பாலகிருஷ்ணன், அரசு ஆலோசகர் தேபேந்திரநாத் சாரங்கி, உள்துறைச் செயலாளர் ராஜகோபால்,
டி.ஜி.பி. ராமா னுஜம், உளவுப்பிரிவு ஐ.ஜி. அம்ரிஷ் பூஜாரி, சென்னை போலீஸ் கமிஷனர்
ஜார்ஜ், அட்வகேட் ஜெனரல் நவநீதகிருஷ்ணன் எனப் பெரிய டீமோடு ஆலோசனை நடத்தி இருக்கிறார்
ஜெயலலிதா. அதன்பிறகு, படத்துக்குத் தடை என்ற பேச்சுகள் கிளம்ப ஆரம்பித்தன. 'விஸ்வரூபம்’
படத்துக்கு 15 நாட்கள் தடை என்பது இரவில் உறுதியானது.
''படத்தை தடை செய்யாவிட்டால் படம் ரிலீஸ் ஆகும் வெள்ளிக் கிழமை அன்று கமல் வீட்டை
முற்றுகையிடுவோம். தியேட்டர்களில் படத்தை வெளியிடாமல் தடை செய்வோம். சென்சார் போர்டு
அலுவலகம் முற்றுகை என அடுத்து போராட்டக் களம் சூடு பிடிக்கும்'' என முஸ்லிம் அமைப்புகள்
அறிவித்ததால், சட்டம்- ஒழுங்கு பாதிக்கும் என்பதால் தடை விதிக்கப் பட்டது என்கிறார்கள்.
'இன்னொசன்ஸ் ஆஃப் முஸ்லிம்’ படத்துக்கு எதிர்ப்புத் தெரிவித்து சென்னை அமெரிக்கத் தூதரக

சொன்ன பெரியாரின் கருத்தை கமல் மூலம் உண்மை என அறிய முடிகிறது'' என்கின்றனர் முஸ்லிம்
கூட்ட மைப்பினர்.
'விஸ்வரூபம்’ என்ன விஸ்வரூபம் எடுக்கப் போகிறது என்பதைக் காத்திருந்து கவனிப்போம்!

''இஸ்லாமியர்களுக்கு அனுதாபியாகவே நான் இருந்து வருகிறேன். மனிதாபிமானம் என்ற
முறையில் ஒரு படி மேலே போய் அவர் களுக்காகக் குரல் கொடுத்து இருக்கிறேன்.
இந்து-முஸ்லிம் ஒற்றுமைக்காகப் பாடுபடும் 'ஹார்மோனி இந்தியா’ அமைப்பில் உறுப்பினராக
இருக்கிறேன். சில சிறிய குழுக்கள் அரசியல் லாபத்துக்காக இரக்கமே இல் லாமல், என்னை ஒரு
வாகனமாகப் பயன்படுத்தி இருக்கின்றனர். தேசபக்தி உள்ள முஸ்லிம் இந்தப் படத்தைப் பார்த்து
நிச்சயம் பெருமைப்படுவார்'' என உருக்கமாக அறிக்கை வெளியிட்டு இருக்கிறார் கமல்.
''கமலின் பிறந்த நாளை ஒட்டி சில வருடங்களுக்கு முன்பு அவரது ரசிகர்கள் ஒட்டிய
போஸ்டரில், 'நடிப்புலகின் நபிகள் நாயகம் கமல்’ என்ற வாசகத்தைப் பார்த்து அதிர்ந்த கமல்,
இரவோடு இரவாக அதை அப்புறப்படுத்தி விட்டு, நடந்த செயலுக்கு வருத்தம் தெரிவித்தார்.
முஸ்லிமை உயர்வாகச் சித்திரிக்கும் 'மருதநாயகம்’ படத்தை எடுக்க கடும் முயற்சி
மேற்கொண்டார். பாபர் மசூதி இடிக்கப்பட்ட நேரத்தில்கூட கடுமையான கண்டனத்தைப்
பதிவுசெய்தார். இப்படி முஸ்லிம் மக்கள் மீது அன்பு செலுத்திய கமலா, அவர்களுக்கு எதிராகப்
படம் எடுத்து இருப்பார்'' என்று வருத்தப்படுகிறார்கள் கமலின் அபிமானிகள்.
கமலின் நெருங்கிய நண்பரான ரஜினியும் இந்த விஷயத்தில் மௌனம் காப்பது அவரது ரசிகர்களை
வருத்தப்படுத்தி இருக்கிறது. ''ரஜினிக்கு ரொம்பவும் பிடித்த படமான 'முள்ளும் மலரும்’
படத்தின் கிளைமாக்ஸ் முடிவடையாமல் நின்றது. அப்போது விஷயத்தைக் கேள்விப்பட்ட கமல், தனது
சொந்தப் பணத்தைக் கொடுத்து படப்பிடிப்பை நடத்தி பிரச்னையை சுமுகமாகத் தீர்த்தார்.
ஆனால், 'விஸ்வருபம்’ விஷயத்தில் ரஜினி ஏனோ கண்டுகொள்ளவில்லை. ரஜினி நினைத்து
இருந்தால், 'விஸ்வரூபம்’ படப் பிரச்னை முதலில் தலைதூக்கியபோதே தலையிட்டுத் தீர்த்திருக்க
முடியும். ரஜினி ஏனோ இன்றுவரை மௌனச் சாமியாராக இருக்கிறார். 36 ஆண்டுகளாக சினிமா
உலகில் நெருங்கிய நண்பராக இருக்கும் ரஜினி இதுவரை 'விஸ்வரூபம்’ குறித்து விசாரிக்
காமல் இருப்பது கமலுக்கு மிகுந்த வருத்தம்தான்'' என்று ஆதங்கக் குரல்கள் கேட்கின்றன.
* ''டி.டி.ஹெச்-சிலாவது ரிலீஸ் ஆகுமா?''*
'விஸ்வரூபம்’ பிரச்னை முதலில் டி.டி.ஹெச். அறிவிப்பு மூலமாகத்தான் தொடங்கியது.
'தியேட்டரில் ரிலீஸ் செய்யப்படுவதற்கு 24 மணி நேரத்துக்கு முன், டி.டி.ஹெச்சில்
ஒளிபரப்பாகும்’ என்று கமல் அறிவித்ததும், 'அப்படி என்றால் நாங்கள் தியேட்டரில் ரிலீஸ் செய்ய
மாட்டோம்’ என்று தியேட்டர் அதிபர்கள் முரண்டு பிடித்தனர். ரிலீஸ் தேதியைத் தள்ளிவைத்த கமல்,
'டி.டி.ஹெச்-சில் ஒரு வாரம் கழித்து ஒளிபரப்பாகும்’ என அறிவித்து பிரச்னைகளுக்கு
முற்றுப்புள்ளி வைத்தார்.
பாலிவுட்டில் கிட்டத்தட்ட எல்லா டி.டி.ஹெச்-சுமே இந்த வகை வசதியை வழங்குகின்றன.
தமிழகத்தைப் போல தாங்கள் வாங்கும் புதுப் படங்களை பண்டிகை நாட்களில் ஒளிபரப்பிக் கொள்ளலாம்
என சேட்டிலைட் சேனல்காரர்கள் காத்திருக்க மாட்டார்கள். எவ்வளவு விரைவில் ஒளிபரப்பி
விளம்பரங்கள் மூலம் காசு பார்க்கலாம் என்ற போட்டிதான் நடக்கும். இதைப் பார்த்த
டி.டி.ஹெச்-காரர்கள் படத்தை முதலில் ஒளிபரப்பும் உரிமையை வாங்கி, அதற்கென 'ஸ்பெஷல்
வீடியோ ஆன் டிமாண்ட்’ என்ற முறையை ஆரம்பித்தனர்.
இந்த முறையில் ரிலீஸாகி ஒரு மாதத்துக்குள்ளாக ஒளிபரப்பும் படங்களுக்கு அதிகபட்சமாக 75
ரூபாய் வரை வசூலிக்கப்படுகிறது. டி.டி.ஹெச்-சில் ஒளிபரப்பாகும் தினத்தில் 24 மணி
நேரத்துக்கு அந்தப் படம் தொடர்ந்து ஒளிபரப்பாகும். எந்த இடத்திலும் படத்தை நிறுத்திவிட்டு,
அடுத்தடுத்த முறை ஒளிபரப்பாகும்போது பார்த்துக்கொள்ளலாம்.
உண்மையில் கமல் அறிமுகப்படுத்த முயன்ற, 'தியேட்டருக்கு முன்பே டி.டி.ஹெச்’ திட்டம்
இந்தியாவிலேயே முதல் முறையானது. தியேட்டருக்கு முன்பே டி.டி.ஹெச். என்பதால் படத்தைப்
பார்க்க டிமாண்ட் அதிகம் இருக்கும் என்பதை கருத்தில்கொண்டு, அதற்கு தகுந்தாற்போல கோடிகளைக்
கொடுத்துவிட்டு ரசிகர்கள் தலையில் கைவைத்தது டி.டி.ஹெச். நிறுவனங்கள். தமிழில்
'விஸ்வரூப’த்தைப் பார்க்க 1,000 ரூபாயும், பிற மொழிகளில் காண 500 ரூபாயும் கட்டணம்
நிர்ணயித்தன.
தியேட்டர் அதிபர்கள் பிரச்னை செய்ததை அடுத்து, தியேட்டரில்தான் முதலில் ரிலீஸ், பின்னர்
டி.டி.ஹெச். என்று கமல் பின்வாங்கினார். இதனால், ரசிகர்கள் எண்ணிக்கை குறையும் வாய்ப்பு
ஏற்பட்டது. அதற்கு தகுந்தாற்போல கமலுக்கு டி.டி.ஹெச். கம்பெனிகள் அளிக்கும் தொகையையும்
குறைத்துக் கொண்டு, 300 ரூபாயாகக் கட்டணத்தை குறைத்தன.
'விஸ்வரூபம்’ டி.டி.ஹெச்-சிலாவது ரிலீஸ் ஆகுமா? அதிலும் சட்டச்சிக்கல் ஏற்படுமா என்பது
இனிமேல்தான் தெரியும்!
* ''சென்சார் போர்டை சீர்த்திருத்த வேண்டும்!''*
'விஸ்வரூபம்’ விவகாரம் பற்றி கவிஞர் மனுஷ்ய புத் திரனின் கருத்து என்ன?
''இஸ்லாத்துக்கு எதிரான கருத்தியலை உருவாக்குவது போல, தொடர்ந்து திரைப்படங்கள்
வருகின்றன. ஏற்கெனவே கடுமையான நெருக்கடிகளை முஸ்லிம்கள் எதிர்கொண்டு வரும் நிலையில்,
இதுபோன்ற படங்கள் அவர்களை அன்னியப்படுத்தும் நிலையை உண்டாக்கும் இந்த விவகாரங்களை
அரசியல்வாதிகள் கையில் எடுத்துக்கொண்டால், ஒவ்வொரு திரைப்படத்தையும் முன்கூட்டியே
திரையிட்டு காட்டவேண்டிய புதுக் கலாசாரம் உருவாகும்.
தீவிரவாதமும் இஸ்லாமும் ஒன்று எனத் தொடர்ந்து சித்திரிப்பதில் சந்தேகமும் எழுகிறது.
இதுமாதிரியான படங்களுக்கு அமெரிக்கா பணஉதவி செய்கிறது. ரஷ்யாவுக்கு எதிராக முன்பு
இதே மாதிரியான திரைப்படங்கள் எடுக்கப்பட்ட நேரத்தில், அமெரிக்காவின் நிதியுதவி
பின்னணியில் இருந்தது. அதே போக்கு இப்போது இங்கு நடந்து வருவது நாட்டின் இறையாண்மைக்கு
எதிரான நிலையை ஏற்படுத்தி விடலாம்.
சென்சார் கமிட்டி அளவிலேயே இந்தப் பிரச்னையைத் தீர்க்க முடியும். சென்சார் போர்டில் அரசியல்
பின்புலத்தோடு இருப்பவர்களை அப்புறப்படுத்திவிட்டு சிந்தனையாளர்களையும் பத்திரி
கையாளர்களையும் எழுத்தாளர்களையும் கொண்ட விசாலமான அமைப்பு உருவாக்க வேண்டும். இதில்
அரசும் அவர்களோடு இணைந்து செயல்பட்டால் பிரச்னையைத் தீர்க்கலாம்.''

From all this happening i can understand that if you live in India then you should follow the same pattern of film making like having kuthu paatu,comedy track extra IE take films which have nothing to do with truth or reality. If you deviate from this and take realist film or based on real life happenings then they will ask for ban or ban it or the film will be a flop. This is very sad indeed.

But not out of love for Kamal or even to protect the freedom of expression.
Looks like they want to settle scores with the protesting Muslim outfit - PFI... and dont want them to win.

Malaysia a ‘coward nation’
Taslima Nasreen, a controversial writer has sent out a scathing twit about Malaysia's move to ban Vishwaroopam.
PETALING JAYA: Controversial Bangladeshi author Taslima Nasreen has described Malaysia as a “coward” nation following Home Minister Hishamuddin Hussein’s decision to suspend the screening of Tamil movie, Vishwaroopam.
“Malaysia banned Vishwaroopam. Coward countries will ban it, coward cinemas will not show it.
“This fear of Muslim fanatics is just plain stupid,” said Taslima on Twitter after news of the suspension was reported by the Indian media yesterday.
Taslima courted controversy in 1993 after a book that she wrote entitled Lajja criticised the implementation of the sharia law.
Muslims in Bangladesh called for her death and this led to her decision to live in exile in India.
Taslima is not the first to criticise Malaysia’s decision.
Yesterday, Malaysia’s National Laureate A Samad Said questioned the rationale of the suspension by the Film Censorship Board (LPF) since it saw no harm in allowing Hindi film Race 2 from being screened.
Vishwaroopam was suspended last Friday after cinemas began screening the movie.
The movie has also been banned in Singapore and several other countries
Lift ban, says Hindraf
Vishwaroopam is a spy thriller directed, co-produced and starring South Indian film star, Kamal Haasan.
The movie revolves around international terrorism and Kamal Haasan dons three roles – an Indian classical dancer, Indian anti-terrorism agent and an agent who infiltrates a terrorist group.
LPF’s enforcement and control division secretary Razak Derahman told FMT that the screening of Viswaroopam was suspended on the orders of Home Minister Hishammuddin Hussein.
According to Razak, the Malaysian Indian Muslim Youth Movement sent a memorandum to the Home Ministry on Wednesday to oppose the screening of the movie that is alleged to hurt the religious sensitivities of Muslims.
Meanwhile Hindraf has called for the ban to be lifted.
Hindraf chairman P Waytha Moorthy said the suspension was uncalled for given that movie’s theme on international terrorism was not different from many other Hollywood and Indian movies with similar themes, which were not banned.
“Why pick on this movie when so many Hollywood movies with similar themes were allowed screening?” he had asked.

விஸ்வரூபத்தைப் பொருத்த வரையிலும், இது ஒரு நல்ல பெரிய தொழில்நுட்ப நிறைகள் கொண்ட ஒரு பெரிய வர்த்தகப்படமாக இருக்கவேண்டும் என்பதுதான் ஆரம்பநோக்கம். இது அவார்ட் வாங்கணும். நான் யாரு'ங்க்றதை காட்டிக்கணும் என்பதை விட, இது ஒரு பெரிய வெற்றிப்படமாக வரவேண்டும் அதே நேரத்தில் தரம் குறையாத, வளம் குறையாத விஷயங்கள் இதில் இருக்க வேண்டும் என்பது தான் ஆசை. அப்படித்தான் வந்திருப்பதாக நாங்கள் நம்பிக்கொண்டு இருக்கிறோம்.

Good to know from the horse's mouth that it is NOT a movie where he is putting his best foot - or much of his self- forward.
Kindly recalibrate your expectations accordingly. People are all praise for the effects and stunts - I think I may end up enjoying the movie after all.

2) People who ensured that the fire rages on probably included some double agent Hindutva thugs, who have all along been enraged by kamal's atheism/Rationalism outlook in his films and in his life. Killng Kamal with the very same "constituency" that he loved/cared for is an obnoxious plan created by rightwingers and probably aided well!
3) But, the Muslims have now proved that they are atleast as a Political/Social organization - Mindless Herds, who would listen to any cr*p mouthed by their janaab mullahs.
This was created by Jaya, But definitely this is a Muslim Jihad now against Kamal. Im pained that now - this might become a nationwide Muslim issue against Kamal.

He needs some political backing or at least the TFI backing, if he has to salvage this one...
Even, if he gets a favorable decision (from the High court ), if the protests continue to spread...
the Central Govt will not hesitate to ban this...fearing law and order problems...
This will also affect the Hindi release...of the movie.
A truncated Viswaroopam will be a tragedy...but not to release the movie at all will be a disaster...
And it will also ensure that in future...there will be a deep fear in film makers to make any movie that has anything to do with Islam...
On a separate note, it is wonderful that Amir Khan has come out in support of Kamal.... I wish there are more such influential voices like him...

irir, once again I don't see why you are calling my attention to this. I am not at all surprised by that poster. PJ type radicals are like that. Even among Muslims he drowns out the voices of others who are different. He hates Nagore dargah or for that matter any of the Indian sufi traditions.
All I am saying is, one shouldn't equate him with Muslim community or Islam itself. They is under threat of undue influence by radicals like him who stand to gain from polarization.

2) People who ensured that the fire rages on probably included some double agent Hindutva thugs, who have all along been enraged by kamal's atheism/Rationalism outlook in his films and in his life. Killng Kamal with the very same "constituency" that he loved/cared for is an obnoxious plan created by rightwingers and probably aided well!
3) But, the Muslims have now proved that they are atleast as a Political/Social organization - Mindless Herds, who would listen to any cr*p mouthed by their janaab mullahs.
This was created by Jaya, But definitely this is a Muslim Jihad now against Kamal. Im pained that now - this might become a nationwide Muslim issue against Kamal.

Great Analysis ! But I am not so sure about Point (2) - Correct me if I am wrong ...Is the Hindutva bandwagon so influential in Tamil Nadu that they can fan the fires ? Seems a bit far fetched to me....I am not sure if Kamal Haasan and his Periyarist ideology is so well known in Nagpur that they ask their agents to ensure the fires spread...

DIG:
I know some hubbers here would blame Mahatma Gandhi for agreeing to the split in 1947 (Kamal too?). Now you must realize (including Kamal) how difficult it must have been for Mahatma Gandhi to agree for the split. There were many lives at stake then, not one. Let us see if Vishwaroopam can release in TN without any cuts..and how much our man bends..inspite of the Indian Judicial system and his fans/artists/people in TN/India/worldwide.
I would not like to prolong this discussion.
END DIG.

If you find something distateful - grow a skin- is all one has to say
Remember the poem in MMA?
பிரபந்தம் சொல்லும் அத்தனை சேட்டையும்
வாஸ்தவமாக நடப்பது உண்டோ?
அதுவும் இதுவும் உதுவும் செய்யும்
இனிய கணவர் யார்க்குமுண்டோ ?
You must check out his actions when he says அதுவும் இதுவும் உதுவும்
The usage is from a famous metaphysical poem by the great NammAzhwAr - held in esteem by Tamil Vaishnavites.
I can totally understand if many where upset by it. I found it naughty, even if strained.
And someone used my name, took offence on my behalf and armtwisted it to snipped out. That is unacceptable.
That's what will happen.
There is no need for any unity within Hindu religion. It invariably leads to a misleading opinion of internal homogeneity glued together against an 'other' who is a threat. That has always produced disastrous results.

Sheetal Talwar stands up for Kamal Haasan's Vishwaroop:
http://in.omg.yahoo.com/news/sheetal...123204528.html
This is the best kind of support I have come across. This is what our Tamil producers/distributors/TN Artists need to do. Talk boldly and make it happen. If not, only 
"Sheetal Talwar, who produced "Dharm", has not only come forward to defend Kamal Haasan against religious fundamentalism but also offered to release "Vishwaroop", the Hindi version of the controversial multilingual film, here and in North India, if required."
"Why are filmmakers in Mumbai not speaking up for Kamal Haasan? Just because he is from the South? Don't they realise, this can happen to any of us? ... I condemn the attack on a film that I am sure redefines popular entertainment, as Kamal's films always do," said Talwaar, who is keen to see "Vishwaroop". "
Spot on. An Indian woman is saying it so strongly. Can't our men/women in TN stand up at least now?
"Kamal Haasan is right. This is cultural terrorism. And the fact that the Tamil Nadu government is endorsing it by banning the film, makes it even worse. I am with Kamal Haasan all the way. If he needs, I'm willing to release the film in Mumbai and other centres. All he has to do is ask," said Talwar."

It makes sense...if Afghanistan wants to ban this movie...why Tamil Nadu ?

I was always annoyed with the time such a movie has detracted from his life at this stage of his career. But I can also get the kind of films he wants to make now. His ambitions etc. Quite off the golden 90s based expectations I had.
That said I really regard action movies highly. In terms of 'control of the medium' it is a huge challenge. It is really 'pure cinema'. And it looks like Kamal has challenged himself here. With such kind of expectations one can approach this movie better.
Or so I speculate based on the hearsay...

P_R , IRR and other great hubbers , small request sirs pl avoid including Hindus in your broad based discussion about why Vishwaroopam " a Movie" is not being released. None of us have required qualification to make sweeping remarks just because we have a keyboard. If an Hindu extremist movement had blocked the release of vishwaroopam, I would have surely joined your fight. But Pl not now.
Lets continue to hope / believe that instead of 1857 , 1947 was the rite thing happened to this country. Which forced us to live like race horses in British Constitutional frame work which was painted as our own by adding religious/ castes based importance along with our fundamental rites, rather than human rights, womens rights, child labour laws, equal educational rites to all etc. Now this is the judicial system we are facing, which is ready pick up any case in the name of religion , castes and not on its judicial / legal merits.
Until we the people demand for an overhaul of this system. Nothing will change. If not JJ tomorrow it will be someone else. They are doing these acts because our so called
constitution provided them with this vague powers, which they are not hesitating to use against very people , which its suppose to protect.
so gentlemen , point your arrows at the rite target.

yes - have seen that - every time Sam Harris probes with questions like "what is the punishment in Islam for apostasy ?", Reza does not give a direct answer - the punishment for apostasy is death - watch this - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BCsV6QbWvsk - i got the 'Red Herring' example from this discussion.

replace Reza or Sam Harris with Kamal Hassan - from what i understand Kamal has NOT EVEN TOUCHED UPON any of the serious theology-related literature issues handled by Harris, Reza or Dawkins, right ?!

I would like India to have similar conditions for free thought and exchange of ideas - not the kind of the situation that has cropped up now !

Well not Harris perhaps, who is extremely objective...but the likes of Mark Steyn or a Robert Spencer will have to be more circumspect...in their arguments against Islam.
Anyways....this perhaps calls for a separate discussion (outside this thread)...
I am not a big admirer of Kamal's philosophy and vehemently oppose some of his views....
But I really pity and support him on this issue...He has consciously tried not show Islam & Muslims in bad light...
and yet he is being penalized...that is the real tragedy... Enough said...

he goes on to paraphrase from Manushyaputhran -"that man talks abt Shruthi Hassan's 'aalumai' - Shruthi wanted to pair opposite her father - for manushyaputhran, shruthi sleeping with her father is 'aalumai'" - 'appan koodavey padukka poradhu yenna oru aalumai'
!!!! cant this man be sued by Kamal ?
his anti-american hatred is so obvious in his more than rhetorical talk.
and if this man and his likes are the ones being abetted by JJ and co, in this whole VR ban, I have no words.
much worser, if this issue becomes a national issue - submitting petition to PMO etc etc and the worst imaginable thing happens, India has no future as a secular democracy.

Why Viswaroopam should be banned...
By Indirani Narayan
How dare you Mr. Hassan? How dare you make a technically brilliant movie with a smart plot without truly hurting anyones sensibilities and try to bring Tamil cinema to the next level?
You should be criminally charged for refusing to settle down and make run of the mill mass masala entertainers. How can you dare to make movies of the calibre of HeyRam? How could you choose to make a movie like Virumaandi (which in my humble opinion even surpassed HeyRam)
And all this by investing your own money????? UNBELIEVABLE.... Apparently you do not know that you could have invested your hard earned money in real estate and gold bonds or even better started a political party . You were stupid enough to try to give back to cinema what you made from it....UNBELIEVABLE
How could you dare have a single creative original thought ? For the last 51 years you have entertained , made us laugh made us cry & have practically been part & parcel of the better part of most of our lives ....ofcourse you should be punished for that .
Let us simply take a look at your track record ....
you made HeyRam ...the ultimate tribute to the Mahatma from Tamil cinema and you were labelled as a Gandhi hater even before the movie released ..
You made Virumaandi ... an unparalleled movie about capital punishment which brought a whole new depth of meaning to the phrase ...and ended up running from courthouse to courthouse to get its Title sanctioned..
You made Dasavatharam ...& got labelled as a Hindu hater by people who had of course decided they knew what the movie was all about by looking at the "POSTERS " nonetheless...
Why for the love of god won't you quit???
Viswaroopam should infact be banned to teach a very important lesson to you & all the other brilliant minds of Indian cinema...."Quit making Masterpieces if you truly value your Health, Life & Sanity"

From friend "Ramiah Ariya" whom I respect and admire.. ( இவரின் சிறுகதைகள் சமீபத்தில் சொல்வனம் இணையததளத்தில் இடம் பெற்றிருக்கிறது. http://solvanam.com/?p=23073, http://solvanam.com/?p=23470, http://solvanam.com/?p=23487)
-------------
I want to comment on a link between the Vishwaroopam case, Kamalhassan's problems; and the facebook/twitter arrests recently. …Whichever way the High Court decides, the Muslim groups have already effected a ban on such expression in the future. This is similar to how the twitter arrest of Ravi Srinivasan prevents anyone from commenting on any politician, for a long time. …some Muslim commentors said this is the actual purpose - to make Kamal Hassan run from pillar to post, thus setting him as an example for others.
Let us see what may happen in the USA or other constitutional republics, for such a ban or prevention with INTENT to deter everyone in the future:
First, Kamal Hassan would sue the TN government, for a sum of may be 80 crores as potential losses for abridging his constitutional rights.
Such a case would be won in any country, just based on the facts here. On top of this, the court will enforce Punitive Damages or "exemplary damages". This may run to tens of crores of rupees.
Indian law does not have Punitive Damages.
What is the purpose of Punitive Damages? They are not just compensation the victim. Punitive Damages make sure that anyone, anywhere in the future would be terribly frightened of asking for such a ban again. No government would dare to ban a movie unless they were sure they would not face Punitive Damages. They are called "exemplary damages" that are not merely compensatory, but make sure society is protected from any such future action.
Indian civil law does not consider this. In India, if you ask for damages, you have to file a certain amount first to the court (10%, I think).
If Punitive Damages were awarded to Kamal Hassan, he would never again have to fear the government. Not only him, no film maker or artist needs to.
These damages would be familiar with those who watched the movies "Erin Brockovitch" or "The Insider".
By any lack of Punitive Damages, the government or private citizens can drag anyone to court and the damage is for the victim. In the twitter arrest, if the police were punished by awarding 20 crores to Ravi Srinivasan, you can bet no police officer would dare to lay a finger on a citizen again.
I think Indian law has to be amended to include Punitive Damages, so that such frivolous bans or lawsuits do not damage free expression.

oh yeah, i have to grow thick skin as said by PR.......but kamal fans have no rights to call TMMK radical grps if their fans also indulge in such name calling and casteist provoking.....i know geno doesent represent kamal fans as a whole but he is a kamal fan too just like TMMK, whole muslims equation, rite?

Well..cycle gappule this guy seeds his anti brahmin stance . And you expect ppl to be innocent about such sinister motives. Genocides start with such 'words' and end up in human losses. To score points, this guy constantly denigrates Tamil Brahmins and athe nyayama thatti ketka thuppilai and you are worried about pheelings of Muslim 'brothers' ..superr appu...dravidian dakalty is getting peeled faster than anticipated..

This tweeter is one of the censor board. Actually he is the one who got blessing from both Kamal and Rajini, during last 2011 elections. To add, he says tamil version was censored last, and hindi version 1st and 2nd telugu version. all version censor board has muslim members, he says

Just my opinion : I guess most of the brahmins are periyar supporter now a days, because they have been pushed to minority and treated like untouchables in tamilnadu now and periyar voiced against that. Apart from brahmins, you have few politically interested parties who are also periyar supporter. Originally Posted by MADDY

Really sad to see the thread totally deviating from the movie, its content, its brilliance, its flaws, its fate, its future, its impact, etc and progressing into personal attacks, casteist or otherwise. What happens as a result is we lose the place where we can get some authentic reports or opinions or news on the movie itself.
MOST SINCERE REQUEST TO CREATE ANOTHER THREAD FOR THAT ---- " Political motives, Religion and caste .... The Vishwaroopam issue" ( Etho ennaala mudinchathu ... title suggest pannen ).
Coming back to questions by Kalyan and few others on the "finding out in the night" thing ....... yes I think they never went to that level any night ...... or may be even if they had a couple of times ...... there is always the possibility of a medical explanation. Please remember that the religious custom of Jews and Muslims is also a surgical treatment for children with certain urinary problems.

<Dig>I agree that DMK and ADMK has stopped TN from going the way of other Congi ruled states. But any movement that is anti-something ( remember hitler??) is bound to end up in genocides and fail in the longer run . These guys fail to realize that if Sinhalas have committed a sin (which they indeed have) by oppressing & suppressing tamilians, Dravidian movement attempted to do that to Brahmins and words like 'Pa**thy' are sowing the seeds for such genocidal tendencies. Even Geno's signature is frothing with his brahmin hatred. In a more sane country he would be behind bars longtime back. I dont understand onething..Budhism is supposed to have sprouted as an anti-brahmin movement. Now if those Buddhists become racists and kill Tamilians in SL, how come Brahminism is again responsible for that? Except MKN, all the names mentioned in geno's sig are Mallu NON BRAHMINS even MKN is a mallu. If ppl like Geno constantly alienate a small (but influential) minority of Tamilians (Viz. Tamil Brahmins), how do you expect them to support any pan-tamilian cause? Inspite of such constant ridiculing most Tamil Brahmins are more tamil than these dravidian fraudsters.

2. i expect this movie to highlight/expose few people within the country who played key role in the attack. they are not new to north india (daewood ibrahim links), so they wont mind. infact they may be proud to be behind this.
3. since this is against killing many indians, if anyone want to protest, they will be treated alongside kasab, so they wont explicitly oppose.
Had Kamal taken the movie in the backdrop of Coimbatore bomb blast, things would have been slightly better (still the movie would have faced opposition, just like every other kamal movie.. tamilnadu is passing a strong message to kamal and he is not listening... he should just quit making tamil movies)

1. This whole issue is NOT about Vishwaroopam but much beyond that. hereafter, including kamal, no one have the guts to touch the religious terror both inside and outside india. The sheer genius of kamal is misunderstood, banned, questioned, misinterpreted and painted black.
2. Even the Judge and JJ are afraid of the Islam groups. She is not a Modi, but opposite. she don't have the guts to act upon the violence inducing statements they say. Good that she arrested them on 24th but that and all very easy thing for a govt. She cannot do the real law and order act upon them and always will push the ball to others court, this time to kamal and court
3. The only option kamal has is to Silence the fringe groups democratically by talking to them. They shoid go silent and run out of words. I am sure kamal can do this and ONLY kamal can do this. Becos so far, both in interviews and in his Films he has always much damaged Hindus(brahmins) then thevars and Islam stands last. He can recollect each and every dialog he has written in films and spoke in interviews. He shud very clearly show that he had talked about both good and bad guys in hindu religion and same goes to Islam. Atleast the good hindu characters had shades of grey, either starting as good and becoming bad in end, or vice versa. But his Islam characters are either white or black. He shud clearly pinpoint them and make the fringe groups go out of words. He shud do that debate Live, and once done, and once they are silenced via argument, thats the most valid and strong way to both expose them and also make every others realise that all the violence they are talking about to start, has no meaning and Govt can clearly go to roads to stop/arrest/ban/punish them. Thats the only way to straighten and strengthen the heavily bent spinal chords of the JJ and Judges. This also will clear the doubting minds who hasen't seen Vishwaroopam.
4. finally release the movie as it is, get whatever possible to collect and kindly stop Vishwa2 and go ahead with the hollywood project. And also move to hollywood. Not that our Cine field brothers are unsupportive, thats not a mistake, and the maturity levels of this fringe group is much much lower and they will stoop to any levels ( http://goo.gl/OxLUi ) that these supportive ppl cannot handle. Infact no body can handle those crap. tAHts why I say it IS the time to Silence them by words and Thalaivaa ONLY you can do it!

I am sure even the shows running in Karnataka/Hyd too will die soon, and will run only till there is no violence there and authorities/muslims don't know that the movie is running there, or they lack unity/crowd in that area.

irir - marudhanayagam is a muslim warrior again, fighting against british rule. certain group within tamilnadu may not like muslims fighting against british, so they will seek ban. Either he stop taking (not acting) tamil movies or just work with directors like perarasu, lingusamy, murugadaas. Originally Posted by irir123

Kamalji - Why dont you start a political party. Your narpani mandram will stand behind you. you need this power to atleast release your movie. With a strong vote bank, you will get support from any leaders. Think about it.

Pushpak, what ur talking?! Legally and according to censor board there is no issues at all, thaan. yes. but isn't those fringe groups asking to re-write the censor rules itself na?! And they clearly said before itself that if ban lifted, they will invoke violence which clearly means this is not a legal one. I still maintian that he shud do a open debate with all concerned parties, judges, Govt, Media and relay it LIVE on TV. Anga ellaam intha koottam vaayai mattum thaan thorakka mudiyum maththathai ellaam moodittu ozhungaa thaan pesi aagaNum. And he shud win the debate hands down and make them run out of words. atleast legally and according to censor board. And also he shud make clear that there is no need to make changes in censor board / legal system wrt this issue. He can quote examples fromall other countries. Originally Posted by pushpak
And in that meeting he shud very clearly expose before the whole country that this Jawaharullaah is a Criminal according to books and pinpoint the criminal records on him, found on wikipedia. That group may say that even Modi is a much bigger criminal than him, but he shud pinpoint that everybody know that and Modi is a well known/discussed case nationwide but most doesn't know that this guy is a kaLi thinna paya

விஸ்வரூபம் தடை சரியா ?
விஸ்வரூபம் திரைப்படத்துக்கு இஸ்லாமிய அமைப்புக்கள் மறியலில் ஈடுபடும் அதனால் சட்டம் ஒழுங்கு பாதிக்கப்படும் என்று பயந்து தமிழக அரசு தடை விதித்திருக்கிறது. இன்று வந்த ஹிந்து தலையங்கம் இந்த தடை ஏன் தப்பு என்று அழகாக சுட்டிக்காட்டியுள்ளது. ஆனால் கூடவே DAM 999 என்ற படத்துக்கு தடை சரி உச்ச நீதி மன்றம் தீர்ப்பும், ஞாநி அவர்கள் நாடகங்களுக்கு போலீஸ் அனுமதி பற்றிய தீர்ப்பும் வந்துள்ளது.
உலகில் பயங்கிரவத செயல் நடக்கும் போது அதையும் இஸ்லாமியர்கள் இந்த மாதிரி கண்டிக்க வேண்டும். பாகிஸ்தான் எல்லையில் நம் ராணுவ வீரர்கள் தலையை துண்டிக்கும் போது இவர்கள் எங்கே போனார்கள் ? ஆனால் துப்பாக்கியில் விஜய் தீவிரவாதிகளை வீழ்த்தும் போது உடனே பொங்கி எழுகிறார்கள்.
ஆந்திரா மாநிலத்தில் ஓவைசி என்ற ஒரு பயங்கிரவாதி இந்துக்களை அழித்துவிடுவேன் என்று சொன்ன போது எங்கே போச்சு சட்டம் ஒழுங்கு ? ஆனால் அவர் ஜாலியாக வெளிநாடு, ஆஸ்பத்திரி என்று சுத்துகிறார். அவரை பற்றி தினமும் டிவியில் விவாதிக்கும் எழுத்தாளர்கள் கண்டுகொள்ளுவதே இல்லை.
மேலே சொன்ன செய்திகள் எல்லாம் நிஜம். ஆனால் கற்பனையாக சினிமா எடுத்தால் ( இத்தனைக்கும் சென்சார் சான்றிதழ் கொடுத்திருக்கிறது ) சட்டம் ஒழுங்கு பாதிக்கப்படும் என்று சொல்லுவது காமெடியாக உள்ளது.
விஜய் மாதிரி அடுத்த படத்தில் கமல் தன்னுடைய பிள்ளையை நடிக்க வைப்பேன் என்று சொல்லி சமாதனமும் செய்ய முடியாது.
நம் முன்னாள் முதலைமைச்சர், பெரியார், கமல் ... இந்துக்களின் உணர்வுகளை பல முறை ஒரு ஃபேஷனுக்காக தங்களை முற்போக்கு என்று காண்பித்துக்கொள்ள புண்படுத்தியுள்ளார்கள்.
கமல் என்ற 'கலைஞரை' இட்லிவடை சப்போர்ட் செய்கிறது.
இந்து மதத்தினரின் சகிப்புத்தன்மைக்கும் பயங்கரவாதிகளுக்கும் உள்ள வேறுபாட்டைப் புரிந்து கொள்ள வேண்டும்

கே..ஜவாஹிருல்லா - தமிழக முஸ்லிம் முன்னேற்றக் கழகத்தின் அரசியல் முகமான மனித நேய மக்கள் கட்சியின் தலைவர். ராமனாதபுரம் தொகுதியின் சட்டமன்ற உறுப்பினர்.
எல்லாவற்றும் மேலாக இன்று எல்லா மீடியாக்களிலும் 'விஸ்வரூபம்' பேசப்படுவதற்க்கு மூலக்காரணமாக இருப்பவர். அப்படத்தின் தடைக்கல் இவர்தான்.
“விஸ்வரூபம் படத்தில் தீவிரவாதியாக காட்டப்படும் நபர் முஸ்லீமாக காட்டப்படுகிறார். எந்த ஒரு தீவிரவாத செயலையும் செய்யும் முன்பு அவர் நமாஸ் செய்வது போல காட்டி விட்டு பின்னர் கொலைச் செயலைக் காட்டுகின்றனர். இஸ்லாமியர்களின் புனித நூலான திருக்குரானை தீவிரவாதிகளின் கையேடு போல காட்டியுள்ளார் கமல்ஹாசன்.
இஸ்லாமியர்கள் கழுத்தை அறுப்பது போன்ற காட்சிகள்,தீவிரவாதிகளின் தலைவர் 'மதுரை, கோவையில் நான் தங்கியுள்ளேன். தமிழ் ஜிஹாதிகள்தான் சிறந்தவர்கள், நம்பிக்கையானவர்கள்' என்று கூறுவது” என குற்றச்சாட்டுக்ளை அடுக்குகிறார் ஜவாஹிருல்லா.
"கமலின் விஸ்வரூபத்தை எதிர்ப்பதன் மூலம் நீங்கள் விளம்பரம் அடைய முயற்சி செய்கிறீர்களா?" என்ற கேள்விக்கு,
"என் முகம் உலகம் முழுவதும் உள்ள முஸ்லீம்களால் அறியப்பட்டது. கமல் மூலம் பிரபலம் அடைய எனக்கு எந்த அவசியமும் இல்லை"
என்கிறார் ஜவாஹிருல்லா.
"விஜயகாந்தின் பல படங்களில் முஸ்லீம்கள் தீவிரவாதிகளாக சித்தரிக்கப்பட்டு இருக்கிறது. அப்போது ஏன் இது போன்ற எதிர்ப்பை காட்டவில்லை." "துப்பாக்கி படத்தை எதிர்த்து ஏன்" போன்ற கேள்விகளுக்கு,
"அவையெல்லாம் கமர்ஷியல் படங்கள். துப்பாக்கி பார்த்துவிட்டு, நாங்கள் எதிர்ப்பு தெரிவித்ததும் எங்களிடம் இயக்குனர் மற்றும் தயாரிப்பாளர் தயாரிப்பில் மன்னிப்பு கேட்டார்கள். நாங்கள் குறிப்பிட்ட காட்சிகளை உடனே நீக்கிவிட்டார்கள்." என்று 'புதிய விளக்கம்' அளித்து இருக்கிறார் இவர்.
ஹேராம் படத்தில் முஸ்லீம்கள் கமலின் மனைவியாக வரும் ராணி முகர்ஜியை கூட்டமாக சேர்ந்து கற்ப்பழிப்பதாக வரும் காட்சியையும் சுட்டிக்காட்டி பேசி இருக்கிறார் ஜவாஹிருல்லா.
கமல் வேலை மெனக்கெட்டு இவருக்கு பிரிமியர் ஷோ காட்ட, அதை பார்த்துவிட்டு படத்தை பற்றி ஒரு வரியில் விமர்சனம் செய்து இருக்கிறார் ஜவா.
"படத்தில் பாடல்கள் இல்லை. காமெடிக் காட்சிகள் இல்லை.அதனால் இஸ்லாத்துக்கு எதிரான ஆவணப்படம் போல இருக்கிறது. மக்கள் பொறுமையாக இப்படத்தை உட்கார்ந்து பார்ப்பார்களா என்று சந்தேகமாக இருக்கிறது".
படத்தில் குத்து பாடல்கள் எதையாவது எதிர்பார்த்து ஜவாஹிருல்லா பெரிதும் ஏமாந்துவிட்டார் என்று தோன்றுகிறது.
"தொலைக்காட்சிப் பெட்டி சாத்தானின் பெட்டி" - இது இவர் அடிக்கடி மத பிரச்சாரக் கூட்டங்களில் பேசும் டயலாக். "இஸ்லாமிய மதப்படி டிவி, சினிமா பார்ப்பது போன்றவை பெரும் குற்றமாகும்" - இதுவும் இவரின் கூற்றுதான். .
இதே ஜவாஹிருல்லா, 'ஹே ராம்" படத்தில் வரும் 'அந்த மாதரி' காட்சிகளை கண்டு இருக்கிறார். கஜோல் அகர்வால ஆட்டம் போட்ட 'துப்பாக்கி' பார்த்து இருக்கிறார். 'விஸ்வரூபம்' பார்த்துவிட்டு எதிர்க்கிறார். போதாகுறைக்கு படத்தை விமர்சனம் வேறு செய்கிறார்.
இஸ்லாமிய அமைப்புகளின் தலைமைப்பொறுப்பில் இருந்துகொண்டு சினிமா பார்ப்பது, அதை விமர்சிப்பது போன்ற இஸ்லாமிய சட்டங்களுக்கு எதிராக செயல்பட்ட இவர்களுக்கு இஸ்லாமிய மதப்படி என்ன தண்டனை? இவர்களுக்கு எந்த "ஜமாத்" தண்டனை தரப் போகிறது?

ஏன் இந்த புதிய மனு?
கமல் தரப்புக்கு சாதகமான அம்சம் ஒன்று உள்ள காரணத்தாலேயே, தீர்ப்பு நாளை கூறப்படும் என்று சொல்லப்பட்ட நிலையிலும், இந்த புதிய மனு தாக்கல் செய்யப்பட்டுள்ளதாக, நீதிமன்ற வட்டாரங்களில் கூறப்படுகிறது.
நாளை தீர்ப்பு வழங்கப்படும் என்று இன்று கூறிய நீதிபதி, “சட்டம் ஒழுங்கைப் பராமரிக்க வேண்டிய கடமை மாநில அரசுக்கு உள்ளது. அதே நேரத்தில் பெரும் பொருட் செலவில் படத்தை எடுத்துள்ள மனுதாரர் நஷ்டப் படக்கூடாது” என்றும் கூறியிருந்தார்.

Kamal's recent recital of Naaladiyar's words come to my mind!
anyway, to deny that such radicalisation exists is a mistake for which the country is going to suffer greatly.

it was more of a frustrated and sarcastic comment (about donation)
But i was (am) serious about seeingit multiple times.

Sivaji wasnt fit to be a political leader. He was the best actor. His political launch in Erode was pathetic. he showed his acting talent to those waiting to see him come out of EVKS Elangovan's house in Erode.. He asked the crowd at 3 PM (most of them gathered since 10 AM) "Neengallaam saapiteengala?"...Remember, these crowd are used to MGR and they would have expected a similar answer. Sivaji's answer was "Naan nallaa sapittaen - with his facial expression, showing his tongue out and also rubbing his belly". I was unfortunately one of those standing outside (ofcourse not for sivaji, but my friend happened to be a youth leader) and thought his political career was over before the launch itself.

I am not a legal expert...But I believe a judge will check whether there is 'malafide intent' in the movie...in other words...Is there a deliberate attempt by Kamal Haasan to denigrate Islam and Muslims...? ..In my opinion, there is no such thing .. in fact it glorifies a 'patriotic' Indian Muslim fighting against the bad guys... Originally Posted by lscain605

The same applies to 'hurting' Hindu sentiments...If my film shows a Hindu character accepting a bribe..., that cannot be a basis of protest by Hindus...saying that it offends Hindu sentiments... We cannot have any creative expression at all....then.
But to play the devil's advocate here...
Kamal Haasan can be accused of 'malafide intent' by a certain community...they have ample evidence to do that...
The latest being the Paapathi joke in 'Viswaroopam' . which has been added ONLY for the purpose of ridiculing/ provoking the Brahmin community.

He shows how innocent young muslims are forced into terrorism by leaders of radical groups like Al-Qaeda in Afghanistan. This is more a case of sympathizing with them rather than degrading them. The problem is that the people from these fringe groups wouldn't understand these things even if they see the movie. Originally Posted by vikatan

Kamal has to move court or govt, says his brother- TOI
"As a common man, we have only two options: One, we can appeal to the state government. Two, we can approach the court." This was how Chandrahasan, actor Kamal Haasan's brother and co-partner in the actor's film production company Rajkamal International, described the actor's predicament with his big ticket film struggling to release in Tamil Nadu-- Vishwaroopam.
Emerging out of the Madras high court, which is hearing the actor's plea to stay the state authorities' prohibitory orders against the film, he said they estimated the loss, due to the delay in the film's release in Tamil Nadu, to be in the region of about Rs 30 crore to Rs 80 crore.
Denying that the film had anything which would hurt the sentiments of any community, Chandrahasan said only Kamal can decide on whether to cut or not to cut any scene in the film.
"It is a writer's or director's prerogative to cut something or not to cut," he said.
Noting that Kamal had just returned from the U.S., he said he would wake up the actor from his jet lag and inform him about the court developments.
On Monday morning, Justice K Venkataraman had advised the actor to try to negotiate and arrive at an amicable settlement of the issue. He is scheduled to hear the actor's petitions against the prohibitory orders on Tuesday.

I am from San Diego and the movie was houseful this weekend (thu,fri,sat and Sunday). San diego does not have high indian population liek bay area or LA inspite of this the movie went houseful. I was the only person there among my friends to be happy for watching it in the front row. We reached the theatre 30 mins before the screening and the front row seats were only left. I am very positive that they will screen next weekend also.
The Audience thoroughly enjoyed the movie. I told a couple of my friends and my women friends after the movie that the movie is banned in TN... they were baffled and innocenlty asked me what was the reason for the ban. This just goes to show how the movie did not evoke any sense of communal hatred to neutral fans.
My review - The movie was brilliant... Direction,Cinematography, Stunts were breathtaking... I felt kamal has really evolved as a director from Hey Ram and Virumandi.
Casting was perfect - Rahul Bose, Jaideep and Pooja kumar. One needs to mention also editing.. lots of non linear editing cuts- really done well.
Negatives- Second half chasing scenes was a bit incoherent (atleast for me).
PS: lots of Kamal Signatures as a Director. I was reminded of Hey Ram Photo session Scene while watching the photo clicking scene with Kamal and Rahul bose co.
The scenes after the movie ended where he shows how Kamal escapades and Training was a good commercial idea simillar to dasavatharam make up song at the end.

Vasanta Balan
நேற்று இரவு கொச்சினில் விஸ்வரூபம் படம் பார்த்தேன்.
கதை முழுக்க சூடான்,ஆப்கானிஸ்தான்,அமெரிக்காவில் நடப்பதாக அமைக்கப்பட்டுள்ளது.
ஒஸாமா பின் லேடனின் அல்கொய்தா தீவிரவாதக்குழுவின் நடவடிக்கைகள் குறித்து விரிவாக பேசுகிறது.
அவர்கள் அமெரிக்க போர்க்கைதிகளை அடைத்து வைத்திருப்பது.
அல்கொய்தாவின் ஆயுதம்,திட்டங்கள்,போர் பயிற்சிமுறைகள்,வாழ்க்கை,அவர்களின் குடும்பம்,குழந்தைகள்,வழிபாட்டுமுறை ,தண்டனை முறை இவை பற்றி படம் விவரிக்கிறது.
படத்தில் வரும் தீவிரவாதிகளின் துணைத்தலைவன் தமிழில் பேசுகிறான்.எப்படி தமிழ் தெரியும் என்று கமல் கேட்க கோயமுத்தூர் மதுரையில் தலைமறைவாக இருந்த போது கத்துக்கொண்டேன் என்று கூறுவான்.
இதைத் தவிர தமிழகத்தைப்பற்றி தமிழ் முஸ்லீம்களை பற்றி படத்தில் எதுவும் இல்லை.
உலகின் அதி பயங்கர தீவிரவாத அமைப்பான அல்கொய்தாவை பற்றி பேசுவதாலே
ஒட்டமொத்த தமிழ் இந்திய முஸ்லீம்களை பற்றி பேசுவதாக கற்பனை செய்து கொண்டு
ஒரு படத்தை தடை செய்வது வருந்தத்தக்கது.
படத்தை முழுதாக சரியாக புரிந்து கொண்டு
நீதிமன்றம் நல்ல முடிவை தரும் என்று உங்களைப்போல நானும எதிர்பார்க்கிறேன்.

I really don't understand why our cousins are making a "Big deal" about it! The film has no elements to degrade their "Belief system". In fact the film has few elements to mokkaify the Brahmins and Hindus (After all it was our Persian cousin who invented this word). Take the scene in which, kamal asks the Brahmin girl to taste the chicken, implying Brahmins eats meat but pretends not to do so, so should not the Hindu fanatics like Cho & co be making noises about it ?? so when the majority in a state is keeping quiet what is "Our cousins" problem ??
The life of PI mokkaified all Religions, esp the Hindus, saying Hindus have 3 million gods, monkey god, snake god, flying god etc. Why did it not get banned in TN ???
Wish people come out of their "bubble" and see the world! This film is technically brilliant, just learn to appreciate kamal's talents!

Would have felt happy if such activity was about the movie.
Late response(enna seyya,kadamai,kanniyam,kattupadu),am still baffled by the Judge's recommendation(would not call it a order as it is deferred till tomorrow).
Would have sounded logical if he had deferred his verdict and asked the government to try and negotiate with the producer/director for an out of court settlement.Instead he has asked the aggrieved party to negotiate.
Enna vidhamaana logic-idhu.People threatning/carrying out violence,spewing venom,hitting below the belt are not touched and the rape victim is being asked to spread the legs again(pardon the language,can't help,this is what it is)
Sorry,can't help but conclude that the government is behind all this is not speculative but fact.
OTOH,can't see much options before KH.Either he risks a write off or tries a negotiation which will help get the film out without too much mutilation.
Don't see a BB happening all over except TN and Pondy.These guys have a great network and random incidents of theatre ransack,clashes with people,stone throwing,burning shops,buses etc will take the film right out of the theatres into the cans.
Negotiate panni dhaan aaganum.If they ask for public apology,mutilation of the film then he has no choice but to await the verdict,move SC if it goes against him here and look at the gamble of winning there and still managing a wide release without incidents.
Nadakkara kariyam maadhiri theriyale.
Better to bend and escape the lathi now than stand on self respect.
If the financial stakes were lower and there was wide spread support among his peers,he could have taken the risk.
@sakala,
Enna solreenga.Has he disagreed to meet the government.I hope not.

If that is true, the verdict will be against Kamal - NO - against democracy and freedom.
Many times,in the interest of fairness and justice and to avoid lifelong friction and bitterness,courts do try to push fighting parties to settle out-of-court.
This is especially true wrt divorce cases and property disputes.
Infact the Bangalore HC has a seperate mediation centre where lawyers have been trained by US legal experts on the art of negotiation/mediation.
They frequently refer cases to this centre and try to resolve issues mutually.
In this case,if government intervention is ruled out,probably the Honourable Judge felt that even if the ban is revoked,there is a very strong possibility of random incidents causing law and order problems which might force the government's hand to pull the film out of theatres.
Hence he might have asked to check out if this can be mutually solved.
I am not ruling out the chances of the above being the truth at all.

He describes angrily : "....intha pAyum kadi nAi pOlice-kAra pAppAnukku undu idhilE peesu (fees)...."
Should we ban bArathiyaars poetry too?

Malaysia and UAE are not part of Indian Union but Kerala is a neighboring state with significant Muslim population. Further the movie was due ly certified by the Proper authorities IE Censor board of India. All the Judge can do is to keep on deferring the judgement or he send it back to the censor board for revaluation but I don't think he can ban it. Originally Posted by Cinemarasigan

Did they write any such letters on bArathiyaar's poetry? - actually they did one better. The shining crown of the Holy cows would usually write in Ananda Vikatan. Kalki (of ponniyin selvan fame) used to work in Ananda vikatan and he had written some unsavoury remarks on bArathiyaar describing bArathi as a mediocre writer and there are a lot of Disgusting / unruly poems of bArathi and so he cant be extolled much! This was during late 1920s to 1930s. Originally Posted by vikatan

she is a pAppAthi! in tamilnadu assembly house itself!
"ஆமாம் நான் பாப்பாத்திதான்" she had thundered! (this was during her 1991-1996 rule)...
...Why would she do so? would she denigrate herself if it was a derogatory word? You guys should use these circumstances to update your socio-political-literary understanding. Must go a long way though.....

bArathiyaar has used this pAppAn word quite a few times - apart from "pAppanai iyer enra" there was another incomplete poem of bArathiyaar - which you can find in a Complete works of Barathiyaar collection of works ; there is one poem where bArathi is angered by the Intelligence / CID wing of the British Police, which usually had pArppanars during those days, when he was expelled to Pudhuchery:

Should we ban bArathiyaars poetry too?
By the words 'She had thundered' dont you realise that she has been ridiculed and she took it in her stride? If you dont, you are abnormally stupid or abnormally perverted. In fact, there are several dalits these days add their castes to their names as a mark of pride (Emmanuel Paraiyar, Dalit Ezhilmalai and so on). What would have otherwise meant as a derogatory word, these people managed to make it as a proud identity. The same was the case with Jaya. That doesnt mean that the word itself loses its derogatory nature.
Regarding the second part of your statement, I have already answered it. In Bharatiyar's time, it was just colloquial (and not derogatory) to refer Muslims as Thulukkan and Thulukkachchi. Try going out and calling someone that way today and you witness the consequences. Clearly, the world has changed in a 100 years and what was acceptable 100 years back is not so today.

He translated extracts from his history, the Chronicum Syriacum into Arabic, and added extra material from Arab sources. In this Historia Compendiosa Dynastiarum[34] he describes a certain "John Grammaticus" (490–570) asking Amr for the "books in the royal library.
- " Amr writes to Omar for instructions, and Omar replies: "If those books are in agreement with the Quran, we have no need of them; and if these are opposed to the Quran, destroy them."[35]
- Al-Maqrizi (1364–1442) also mentions the story briefly, while speaking of the Serapeum.[36]
- There is also a story in Ibn Khaldun (1332–1406) which tells that Omar made a similar order about Persian books.[37]

1) Jaya wants to make kamal come begging to her. he wont do it, unless he is forced to do that for his finances/family kind of extreme reasons.
2) Kamal would try and explain that since everywhere in the world the film has been seen, it should be allowed to release, to the officials.
3) Incase, Kamal doesnt come around to Jayas position, Tomorrow, the entity who passes orders (who some unverified sources are rumoring that the concerned person - has personal integrity, but someone who is very soft and would easily budge if there are threats from very higher up!) might rule - that Govt can suggest cuts to uphold law & order (implying there are some objectionable scenes cant be ruled out!)
4) In any case, Kamal wont go to SC, until after tomorrows judgement is over, i guess.
5) Going to SC means, the respondent (TN Govt.) will do all delaying tactics to ensure this film doesnt release until after next weekend (if at all that is) and might be argued that this Viswa can be refered back to censor board!
6) Meanwhile, if kamal doesnt go to Jayas kangaroo court, then Viswa will be freely available in all DVD shops without police protection is a possibiltiy!
7) Also Kamal would henceforth would be on Jayas hit list.
8) If any chance, this issue gets flared up into a full pitch or half pitch Political battle (Kamal if in case he meets Mu.Ka or the PM!) - then this issue will take a further Nasty turn. This wud be the worst case scenario for Kamal - he would then have to accept that this will be handled at the Political Soccer level Game! He should not regret the consequences then.
9) Some mediators working on behalf of Kamal to soothe the islamic groups can be a possibiltiy. Harmony India - Hindu Ram, Prince of Arcot nawab may get involved in this. (JJ persecutes Kamal, so Hindu Ram might want to background work for Kamal!)
10) In which ever case, Kamal as soon as he escalates to supreme court, will have to accept and realis that whether he likes it or not, he has entered atleast quasi Political ground.
Other possibilites are - Amir Khan , Shah rukh khan, DIleep Kumar, Shabana azmi, Javed Akthar, Amitabh bachan - migth help some mediation in NI (all pure speculation)
------------------------
Periyarists within Film industry and in general will have to come forward for Kamal now. They should not quote his FEFSI, South Indian film actors, mullai periyaru silence, eezham genocide silence et al. now - that can wait for later.

geno has listed out all possibilities.
Earlier today,I wrote that if he decides to fight,even assuming JJ or any other political power is not involved,the chances of him winning the court battle but losing heavily financially is very high.
If political forces are indeed involved,then he is on a much more weaker wicket.
If he fights then it will be because
a)His self respect is the most Important thing
b)The demands to release the film can never be met - Public and private apology,mutilation of the film,heavy bribe etc etc etc.
Also he should be clear that he cannot make another film here till this government is in power and shifting base to AP,Kerala,Bollywood,Hollywood will be the only options available.

Some comments from three of my close **** community friends on this topic (all are "educated" and very nice/friendly people)
1. What to do. Some idiots are spoiling our reputation and creating a perception that we are also like them.
I hate them and don't have any respect. But if some of us oppose they will corner us also as anti-**** !!
2. Why can't Kamal delete the sensitive scenes?
(on asking whether he watched the movie) - If those folks feel some scenes insult ****, it should be true !
3. If some terrorists read our holy-book, it does not mean all who read the holy-book are terrorists.
(on explaining there is no such generalization in the movie) - We treat our religion as pure and no direct/indirect humiliation can be accepted.
(this went on and because the person's listening capability went to a zero level, I stopped)

Just came back from my second darshan to VR. In spite of pouring rain for the entire day, all the shows today were also sold out in advance. I went for the night show. My elder son who normally sleeps early was awake for the entire movie and really loved it. He wanted to stay back for VR2 thinking that they are gonna show it right after that
This time around I was able to appreciate the dialogues and the humour more. That oonjal scene will stay in my mind forever. Actually UV, the first song set the mood for the transformation scene nicely. The slow-mo action action scene was a beaut. Without that it would have become another typical action sequence. Kudos to the team.

The delay in the screening of Kamal Haasan's Rs.95 crore film " Vishwaroopam" in the wake of a ban after some groups tagged it as anti-Muslim is likely to result in an estimated loss of Rs.30 crore, say industry experts.
"A film like 'Vishwaroopam', which was promoted at a huge scale, will perhaps have to bear a loss of around Rs.20 to Rs.30 crore. But it also depends on the fate of the film. If the film again gets delayed, then the loss might even cross more than Rs.30 crore," Mumbai-based distributor Rajesh Thadani of Multi Media Combines told IANS.
After the ban on the international espionage drama, directed and produced by Kamal, in Tamil Nadu, Andhra Pradesh, Karnataka and Kerala, distributors and theatre owners are worried about recovering the cost.
Karnataka distributor Gangaraju said that when a star's film gets banned, the losses are heavy.
"If a single-screen theatre shells out about Rs.5-Rs.10 lakh for a film involving a big star, then only good opening can help break even in two weeks' time," he added.
A theatre owner said: "By Jan 22 we started bookings for 'Vishwaroopam' and removed all other other films that were playing. But the ban has come as a shocker and we had to fill the screens again with old films such as 'Alex Pandian' and 'Samar'."
The Tamil and Telugu versions of "Vishwaroopam", which deals with the adversities of war, were scheduled to release Jan 25, but couldn't come out on the schedule time as a ban was imposed by the Tamil Nadu government following protests from Muslim groups.
A day later, the Madras high court restricted the film's release till Jan 28.
On Friday, some theatres in Andhra Pradesh and Kerala screened the film, but had to stop the run after religious leaders approached Home Minister Sabita Indra Reddy and urged a ban.
Prakash Reddy, a distributor, said: "A Kamal Haasan film is bound to have a good opening but sadly, that was not in the case of 'Vishwaroopam' as the shows were disrupted."
Now "Vishwaroopam" is substituted by "Race 2" and "Akaash Vani" in the multiplexes, while single screen theatres are playing Pongal releases like "Naayak" and "Seethamma Vakitlo Sirimalle Chettu" in Hyderabad.
It was the same in Karnataka.
"We definitely missed the box-office opening of the film. But our biggest problem now seems to be the reimbursement of tickets that were bought and booked online. Some said they don't need their money back and demanded screening of the film again," Gangaraju said.
To watch a film in a multiplex, viewers have to shell out somewhere between Rs.120-Rs.150 for a film. In cities like Bangalore, multiplexes some times charge Rs.250 per ticket at the weekend.
In single-screen theatres, the tickets are priced at Rs.70 to Rs.100 in the region.
Some audiences, who booked online, demanded instant reimbursement and made a ruckus at the theatres.
"Usually, a third party vendor takes care of online booking and it usually takes a few days for the money to get credited into their account, but since the shows were cancelled, most of them were disappointed," added Gangaraju.
In Karnataka, multiplexes are now playing new Hindi releases along with Sudeep-starrer "Varadanayaka". Some are also showing "Alex Pandian" and "Samar".
In Kerala, "Vishwaroopam" released on 82 screens Jan 25, but soon after the first show, most theatres were forced to stop the screenings.
But on Jan 26 the film was shown in some theatres in Kerala with the help of youth wing members of certain parties.
"In places likes Trivandrum there was tension but members of Yuva Morcha and Hindu Munnani opposed the ban against the film and ensured a smooth run," said Arvind.
But those who can't run the film in the state are showing the Mammootty-starrer "Kammath & Kammath".
Initially, the film had a peaceful release in the overseas market, where distribution price is reportedly Rs.1.5 crore.
"'Vishwaroopam' collected Rs.57.13 lakh in Britain in the first three days," tweeted trade analyst Taran Adarsh.
But now the trouble has travelled abroad with a ban on the film's screening in Malaysia.
Confirming the same, A. Ramalingam, distributor of the film in Malaysia, said: "The film ran to packed houses on the first day but following a request from the ministry, we had to stop screening on Saturday."

HYDERABAD: Muslim politicians and religious heads demanded a ban on Kamal Haasan starrer Vishwaroopam alleging that it portrayed Muslims in the wrong light.
An all party meeting was called for on Sunday by politicians and religious heads who had watched the movie on Saturday. Amjadullah Khan of MBT alleged that the characters in movie portray Muslims as terrorists. "Portraying Muslims as terrorists is not just anti-Islamic but it is also against the democratic and secular fabric of the nation," he said.
Maulana Habeebul Hassan Siddiqi, condemned the movie and said that it should be banned. He said that showing Muslims as terrorists does not represent facts and should not be encouraged. Leaders also said that they sent a petition to the home ministerSabita Indra Reddy and the city police commissioner who responded by preventing the release on January 25. They added that they would approach the court if movie is not banned. An effigy of the actor was later burnt by the group in Dabeerupura.

திரைப்பட தணிக்கைக் குழுவைச் சீரமைக்க வேண்டும்:
திருமாவளவன் கோரிக்கை
சென்னை: விஸ்வரூபம் திரைப்படப் பிரச்சனையை முன்வைத்து திரைப்பட தணிக்கைக் குழுவைச் சீரமைப்பதற்கு அரசு முன்வர வேண்டும் என்று விடுதலைச் சிறுத்தைகள் கட்சி கோரிக்கை விடுத்துள்ளது. இது குறித்து விடுதலைச் சிறுத்தைகள் கட்சி தலைவர் தொல்.திருமாவளவன் எம்.பி. வெளியிட்டுள்ள அறிக்கையில் கூறியிருப்பதாவது, விஸ்வரூபம் திரைப்படம் தொடர்பாக எழுந்துள்ள சிக்கல் சமூகச் சிக்கலாக இப்போது உருமாறியிருக்கிறது. படத்திற்குத் தடை விதிக்க வேண்டும் என்று இஸ்லாமிய அமைப்புகளும், படத்தை அனுமதிக்க வேண்டும் என்று ரஜினிகாந்த் போன்ற திரைப்படக் கலைஞர்களும் பேசி வருகின்றனர்.
இதனால் தமிழ்ச் சமூகத்தை மத அடிப்படையில் பிளவுபடுத்தக்கூடிய ஆபத்து உருவாகியிருக்கிறது. எனவே, தமிழக அரசும் மத்திய அரசும் உடனடியாக இப்பிரச்சினையில் தலையிட்டு சுமூகத் தீர்வு காண வேண்டும். கமல்ஹாசன் அவர்கள் இந்தியாவிலிருக்கின்ற சிறந்த நடிகர்களில் ஒருவர் என்பதை எவரும் மறுக்க முடியாது.
அதனால் அவருக்குக் கூடுதல் சமூகப் பொறுப்பு உள்ளது. திரைப்படத்தின் தாக்கம் எத்தகையது என்பதை நன்கு அறிந்த அவர், ஒரு திரைப்படத்தை மிகுந்த பொருட்செலவில் தயாரிக்கும்போது வணிக நோக்கைவிட சமூக நோக்கைக் கூடுதலாகக் கொண்டு உருவாக்க வேண்டும்.
இந்தத் திரைப்படம் இஸ்லாமிய சமூகத்தைத் தவறாகச் சித்தரிக்கிறது என்ற குற்றச்சாட்டை தமிழகத்தில் மட்டுமல்லாது இந்தியாவின் பிற மாநிலங்களிலும் இருக்கின்ற இஸ்லாமிய அமைப்புகள் தெரிவிக்கின்றன. இதனால் தற்போது கேரளா, ஆந்திரா, கர்நாடகா என்று பல மாநிலங்களிலும் இத்திரைப்படத்திற்கு எதிரான கிளர்ச்சிகள் நடைபெற்று வருகின்றன. இந்த அளவுக்கு பிரச்சனை ஏற்படாமல் திரு. கமல்ஹாசன் அவர்கள் தவிர்த்திருக்கலாம். அவ்வாறு செய்யாதது நமக்கு ஏமாற்றமளிக்கிறது.
ஒரு திரைப்படத்திற்கு தணிக்கைக்குழு சான்றிதழ் வழங்கப்பட்டுவிட்டால் அதனைத் தடுக்கக் கூடாது என நீதிமன்றங்கள் ஏற்கனவே தீர்ப்பளித்துள்ளன. திரைப்படத்தைப் பொறுத்தவரை தணிக்கைக் குழுவின் உறுப்பினர்களே நீதிபதிகளாகக் கருதப்படுகிறார்கள். அவ்வாறிருக்கும்போது, தணிக்கைக் குழு உறுப்பினர்களை நியமிப்பதில் அரசு கூடுதல் கவனம் எடுத்துக்கொள்ள வேண்டும். நீதிபதிகளை நியமிப்பதற்கு எத்தகைய கவனம் எடுத்துக்கொள்ளப்படுகிறதோ, அத்தகைய கவனம் தணிக்கைக்குழு உறுப்பினர்களைத் தேர்ந்தெடுப்பதிலும் காட்டப்பட வேண்டும். அரசியல் கட்சிகளைச் சேர்ந்தவர்களை தணிக்கைக் குழு உறுப்பினர்களாக நியமிப்பதை அரசு கைவிட வேண்டும்.
ஒடுக்கப்பட்ட மக்கள், சிறுபான்மையின மக்கள், பெண்கள் உள்ளிட்ட சமூகத்தில் நலிந்த பிரிவினரை திரைப்படங்களில் எதிராகச் சித்தரிப்பதால் சமூகத்தில் மிக மோசமான கருத்து பரவுகிறது. இருப்பதிலேயே மிக வலிமையான ஊடகமாக இருக்கும் திரைப்படம் குறித்து ஆட்சியாளர்கள் கூடுதல் கவனம் எடுத்துக்கொள்ள வேண்டுமென்பதையே விஸ்வரூபம் திரைப்படம் தொடர்பான சிக்கல் நமக்கு உணர்த்துகிறது.
டெல்லியில் நடைபெற்ற பாலியல் வன்கொடுமையை முன்வைத்து பெண்கள் தொடர்பான சட்டங்களில் சீர்திருத்தம் செய்யப்படுவது போலவே 'விஸ்வரூபம்' திரைப்படப் பிரச்சனையை முன்வைத்து திரைப்படத் தணிக்கைக் குழுவைச் சீரமைப்பதற்கு அரசு முன்வர வேண்டும் என்று விடுதலைச் சிறுத்தைகள் வலியுறுத்துகிறது என்று அவர் அதில் தெரிவித்துள்ளார்.

Vishwaroopam’ – the latest Tamil film by South Indian actor Dr. Kamalahasan, has been temporarily banned from being screened in Sri Lanka as the movie 'will affect social harmony,' Media Minister, Keheliya Rambukwella said at the cabinet briefing.
The Tamil movie was scheduled to be released on Friday after reaching the Censorship Board. However, the minister said he would want to watch the movie once more, so as to 'avoid communal tension.'
Vishwaroopam was banned for 15 days in South India.
However, the main actor, Kamal Hasan, who is also the director of the movie, managed to have it released through a satellite known as Direct to Home (DTH).
However, Kamal Hasan has said to the Indian media that 'any neutral and patriotic Muslim will surely feel proud on seeing his film, and it was designed for that purpose.'
"Now I will rely on law and logic to come to our support. This kind of cultural terrorism will have to stop," the actor had said.
Minister Rambukwella said, "Kamal Hasan has managed to release the movie through satellite. Half the Indian population has already seen the movie. By now the balance of the population would have seen it. This is the trickiest part of advanced technology."
Pathetic jokers, I am provoked to swear, but will not cross my boundaries, as I have never done that in my 12th anniversary with the hub. These pathetic retarded fools are mourning over some "Moghul" elements in the film, when Channel 4 released "Srilanka killing fields" what were their answers? These Moors were weeping over the be heading of the girl in Saudi Arabia (which I highly condemn), where we they when their own so called "adopted" cultured people were under genocide ???

for a serious / heinous incident such as the above, the politicians used the same as if it were a soccer game!
cinema, eh ?
poor Kamal - he should have stuck to either 'anbe sivam' kinda films, or, continued to make films on the evils of the Indian history carefully avoiding any mention of muslims completely - but how dare he make a film like VR that showed the taliban as muslims ? it was entirely Kamal's fault, given the prevailing conditions in the country and given the kind of 'peaceful' means with which groups representing the muslims even approach anything related to them.
andha Kathak dancer urumaari oru mexican drug cartel azhikkara RAW officer aaga kaamichhirundha prachanai irundhirukkaadhu - except maybe he stepped into Mexico, he would have to fear decapitation ! but adhaiyey thaana taliban 'anbu sagodharargal' are doing (using opium drug as a front to bolster afghan economy!).
idhellaam kekkaradhukku yaarukkum urimai kidayaathu - adha Kamal modhalla purinjikkanum.
but one thing needs to be appreciated - I am in total awe at this sincere efforts on the part of muslim leaders towards rapid talibanisation of their followers, even before pakistanisation - thats a huge leap of 'faith' I must admit ! bravo! wonderful !

- Abd'l Latif of Baghdad (1162–1231) states that the library of Alexandria was destroyed by Amr, by the order of the Caliph Omar.[32]
- The story is also found in Al-Qifti (1172–1248), History of Learned Men, from whom Bar Hebraeus copied the story.[33]
- The longest version of the story is in the Syriac Christian author Bar-Hebraeus (1226–1286), also known as Abu'l Faraj. He translated extracts from his history, the Chronicum Syriacum into Arabic, and added extra material from Arab sources. In this Historia Compendiosa Dynastiarum[34] he describes a certain "John Grammaticus" (490–570) asking Amr for the "books in the royal library.
- " Amr writes to Omar for instructions, and Omar replies: "If those books are in agreement with the Quran, we have no need of them; and if these are opposed to the Quran, destroy them."[35]
- Al-Maqrizi (1364–1442) also mentions the story briefly, while speaking of the Serapeum.[36]
- There is also a story in Ibn Khaldun (1332–1406) which tells that Omar made a similar order about Persian books.[37]
Link:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Library_of_Alexandria
P.S:
And this Caliph Omar was - Umar ibn Al-Khattāb, Umar Son of Al-Khattab, (born 579 CE – died 6 November 644 CE), was one of the most powerful and influential Muslim caliphs (rulers) in history.[3] He was a sahābi (companion) of the Islamic prophet Muhammad.

We never have any intention of not releasing any film for that matter. Films are the source of our revenue. We can never afford to stall release of any film.

Pushpak,
Send them a stinker.They are bound by the laws of Karnataka and not TN.
Wrt the article posted by paramu a couple of pages back,exactly the kind of report I was looking for.
It's not having a smooth run anywhere in India as expected.
If the TN govt had thrown their "manu" into the dustbin,warned of severe action if they turned violent and carried out the warning if they crossed the line,situation would have been different.
Now they have tasted blood and will not relent.
Utopian situation will be court coming down heavily on the thugs and government,film releasing big,RKFI suing the goons for damages and character assasination,court deciding in his favour in a reasonable TAT and all of us feeling happy.
But in this great nation,none of this is going to happen.Going by the tone of the judge,he will uphold the ban,matter will go to the SC,will revoke the ban,government will provide security at select theatres for a few days and then bring them back,random incidents will happen and off goes the movie from theatres.
Can RKFI arrange private security in every theatre??????
If I was Kamal,seriously I will not know what to do.
But will have to admit the influence these guys carry.Enna network across countries and how governments are bending backwards to please them
Negotiation is the only way out but should be restricted to a disclaimer,small cuts.1 hour footage ellam too much.Don't think he will kill his own baby.
But there is silence from RKFI today,don't know what's cooking.

Vishwaroopam has emerged as a big grosser in the US and Canada. As per the weekend estimates, Vishwaroopam collected a total of $659,000 (Rs.3.5 Crores) during the opening weekend from 84 screens in Tamil and Telugu. Vishwaroopam also ranked 25th in the North America Box Office and had the highest per screen average of $7,850 among all the movies screened during the weekend.
Vishwaroopam enters Top 3
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Vishwaroopam has entered top 3 opening weekend collections of all time in the US and Canada. Vishwaroopam's collection is less than half of top ranked grosser, Endhiran, which collected a total of $1,520,108 [~Rs. 6.81 crores] on 64 screens. Kamal's Vishwaroopam is touted to have surpassed his previous blockbuster Dasavatharam which was estimated to have collected roughly around $600,000 from Tamil and Telugu. Sivaji's box office collections are also estimated to be in the same range and the exact figures were not officially maintained by trade sources. The biggest grosser of 2012, Thuppakki, had collected $420,400 from 7-day Diwali week.
With Vishwaroopam proving to be a winner in international circuits, fans in India are eagerly waiting to watch the movie on big screen as soon as the court clears the movie for release.

தமிழரின் வாழ்வில் சோகம் படிந்த சம்பவங்களில் கொக்கட்டிச்சோலை படுகொலையும் ஒன்று. 1987 தை 28 ஆம் நாள் பலரது உயிர்கள் காவுகொள்ளப்படப் போகிறது என்பதை யாரும் அறிந்திருக்கவில்லை.
அன்று பாதுகாப்புப் படையினரால் நூற்றுக்கு மேற்பட்ட அப்பாவி குடிமக்கள் கொடூரமாக கொல்லப்பட்ட போது கொக்கட்டிச்சோலை பிரதேசமே இரத்த வெள்ளத்தில் படிந்தது.
காலங்கள் எத்தனை கடந்து போனாலும் பிரதேசமக்கள் இப்படுகொலை நடந்த நாளை கரிநாளாக பிரகடனம் செய்து வருடாந்தம் துக்கதினமாக அனுஸ்டித்து வருகின்றனர்.
இன்று கொக்கட்டிச்சோலை படுகொலையின் 26வது ஆண்டு நினைவு நாள். இறந்தவர்களின் ஆத்மசாந்தி வேண்டி படுவான்கரை பிரதேசங்களில் உள்ள அனைத்து ஆலயங்களிலும் விசேட பூசைகளும், மகிழடித்தீவு சந்தியில் அமைக்கப்பட்டுள்ள இறந்தவர்களின் நினைவுக்கோபுர முன்றலில் உறவினர்களால் தீபமேற்றி அஞ்சலி செலுத்தும் நிகழ்வும், கொக்கட்டிச்சோலை கலாசார மண்டபத்தில் பாராளுமன்ற உறுப்பினர் பாக்கியசெல்வம் அரியநேத்திரன் தலைமையில் இரங்கல் கூட்டமும் இடம் பெறவுள்ளன.
இப் படுகொலை கொக்கட்டிச்சோலை படுகொலை என பேசப்படுகின்ற போதும் உண்மையில் அது நடந்தது முதலைக்குடா மற்றும் மகிழடித்தீவு கிராமங்களை அண்டிய இறால்பண்ணை அமைந்திருந்த இடத்திலும் அதனை அண்டிய பகுதியிலுமாகும்.
இறால்பண்ணை, கொக்கட்டிச்சோலை கமநலசேவையின் சேவகப்பற்று கண்டத்தில் மட்டக்களப்பு மண்முனை வாவியை அண்மித்த முதலைக்குடா, மகிழடித்தீவு கிராமங்களின் கிழக்குத் திசையில் ஆற்று அருகாக நீண்டு பரந்த பலநூறு ஏக்கர் விசாலம் கொண்ட விவசாயக்காணியில் அமைந்திருந்தது.
முனைக்காடு, முதலைக்குடா, மகிழடித்தீவு கிராமங்களைச் சேர்ந்த போடிமாருக்கும், தான்தோன்றீஸ்வரர் ஆலயத்திற்கும் சொந்தமான காணிகளை மட்டக்களப்பை சேர்ந்த வழக்கறிஞர் ஒருவரின் ஏற்பாட்டில், வெளிநாட்டு முதலீட்டாளர் ஒருவர் 1984 ஆம் ஆண்டு “செரண்டிப் சீ பூட்ஸ் லிமிட்டெட்” என்ற பெயரில் பாரிய பண்ணை ஒன்றை அமைத்தார்.
1983ல் யூலைக் கலவரம் இடம்பெற்று இனமுரண்பாடு தீவிரம் பெற்றிருந்த இக்காலப் பகுதியில், இப்பிரதேசம் இயக்கங்களின் செயற்பாட்டில் இருந்தது. இறால்பண்ணைத் தொழிலாளர்களில் பெரும்பாலானோர் இப்பிரதேசத்தைச் சேர்ந்த படித்த இளைஞர்களாக இருந்ததோடு, காரியாலய கடமைகளில் எழுவான்கரையைச் சேர்ந்த சிலரும் ஈடுபட்டிருந்தனர். முதலீட்டாளர்களின் கூடிய வருமானத்தை ஈட்டக்கூடிய பண்ணைத் தொழிற்பாடுகள் அமைந்திருந்தது.
இவ்வாறாக பண்ணைத் தொழில் முன்னெடுக்கப்பட்டு வந்தபோது 1987 தை 28 ம் நாள் அதிகாலை படுவான்கரையின் வான்பகுதியில் என்றுமில்லாதவாறு வானூர்திகள் பல வட்டமிடுவதை பிரதேச மக்கள் கண்டனர். ஏதோ நடக்கப் போவதாக நினைத்தது பொய்யாகவில்லை.
விடுதலைப்புலிகளின் கட்டுப்பாட்டில் இப்பிரதேசம் இருந்த நிலையில் அன்றைய நாள், வலையறவு பாலத்தினூடாக கொக்கட்டிச்சோலையை நோக்கியும், வெல்லாவெளி பாதை ஊடாக கொக்கட்டிச்சோலைக்கும் பாதுகாப்பு படையினர் நகருவதாகவும், அவர்களது வரவை தடுக்கும் நோக்கில் விடுதலைப்புலிகள் கைரிமடுப்பாலம், மணற்பிட்டிசந்தி மற்றும் மாவேற்குடா பாலம் ஆகிய இடங்களில் கூடி நிற்பதாகவும் செய்திகள் பரவின.
ஒரு சில நிமிடங்களில் துப்பாக்கி ஓசை காதுகளை பிளக்கும் அளவிற்கு பிரதேசம் எங்கும் கேட்டவண்ணம் இருந்தது. அது இருதரப்பினருக்கும் மோதல் நடப்பதை உறுதிப்படுத்தக்கூடியதாக அமைந்தது.
மோதல் தணிந்த நிலையில் முதலைக்குடா சந்தியை அண்மித்த படையினர் பண்ணைத் தொழிலாளர்களையும், அதனை அண்டிய பொதுமக்களையும் ஒன்று சேர்த்து கொக்கட்டிச்சோலை பிரதேசத்தை இரத்தக்கறை படியச் செய்தனர்.
கொக்கட்டி மரத்தில் குருதி வடிந்த அதே புனித பூமியில், நூற்றுக்கு மேற்பட்ட அப்பாவி குடிமக்களின் குருதி ஆறாக பாய்ந்தது. பிரதேசத்தில் முதலாவது வைத்தியர் என்ற பெருமைக்குரியவரும் மருந்து மரம் என மக்களால் அழைக்கப்பட்டவருமான டொக்டர் கந்தையா உட்பட அத்தனை பேரினதும் பூதவுடல்கள் படையினரால் எடுத்துச் செல்லப்பட்டதோடு அவை எங்கே தகனம் செய்யப்பட்டன அல்லது எங்கே புதைக்கப்பட்டன என்று அறியாமலே போயிற்று.
மட்டக்களப்பில் இருந்த எரிபொருள் நிரப்பும் நிலையங்களில் இருந்து அதிகமான எரிபொருட்கள் குறிப்பிட்ட இறால் பண்ணைக்கு எடுத்து வரப்பட்டமை பாதுகாப்பு தரப்பினருக்கு சந்தேகத்தை ஏற்படுத்தியது என்றும் இதன் காரணமாகவே அப்பண்ணைத் தொழிலாளர்களை இயக்க செயற்பாட்டாளர்களாக கருதி அவர்கள் கொலை செய்தனர் என்று ஒரு பகுதியினரும், பண்ணை நடவடிக்கைகளினால் உண்டான முரண்பாடும் காட்டிக் கொடுப்புமே காரணமென்று, வேறு சிலரும் பேசினாலும் கொல்லப்பட்டவர்கள் அப்பாவி பொதுமக்கள் என்பதை இன்று வரையிலும் அப்பிரதேச மக்களின் கண்ணீர் சாட்சி கூறும்.
இறந்தவர்களின் நினைவாக அமைக்கப்பட்ட நினைவு தூபி 2007ம் ஆண்டு முற்பகுதியில் இடம்பெற்ற இடப்பெயர்வு நேரத்தின் போது அழுக்கு நெஞ்சங்களின் செயற்பாடு காரணமாக சேதமாக்கப்பட்டாலும் பிரதேச மக்களின் மனங்களிலிருந்து இப்படுகொலை சம்பவத்தை நினைவிலிருந்து என்றுமே அகற்ற முடியாது.
இறந்தவர்களின் ஆத்ம சாந்திக்காக பிராத்திப்பதே நாம் அவர்களுக்குச் செய்யும் அஞ்சலியாக அமையும்.

இலங்கையில் விஸ்வரூபம் திரைப்படத்தை வெளியிடுவதற்கு விரைவில் அனுமதி வழங்கப்படும் என்று இலங்கையில் வெளியாகும் திரைப்படங்களுக்கு அனுமதி வழங்கும் தணிக்கைச் சபை தெரிவித்துள்ளது.
எந்தவொரு சமூகத்துக்கும் பாதிப்பு ஏற்படக்கூடிய கருத்துக்கள் அந்தப் படத்தில் இல்லை என்று தாங்கள் கருதுவதாகவும் இலங்கை தணிக்கைச் சபையின் தலைவர் காமினி சுமனசேகர பிபிசியிடம் தெரிவித்தார்.
எனினும் வெளியிடுவதற்கு முன்னதாக முஸ்லிம் தலைவர்களுக்கு திரைப்படம் போட்டுக் காண்பிக்கப்பட்டு அவர்களின் கருத்துக்கள் பெறப்படும் என்றும் அவர் கூறினார்.
அமெரிக்கா, பிரிட்டன் உள்ளிட்ட பல வெளிநாடுகளிலும் இந்த மாதம் 25-ம் திகதி வெளியான கமல் ஹாஸனின் விஸ்வரூபம் திரைப்படத்தை தமிழகம் மற்றும் இலங்கையிலுள்ள திரையரங்குகளில் வெளியிட முடியாமல் தொடர்ந்தும் தடை உள்ளது.
படத்தை வெளியிட முடியாதவாறு தமிழக அரசு இருவார கால தடைவிதித்த நிலையில், அடுத்தக் கட்டமாக இலங்கையிலும் படத்தை வெளியிடாது நிறுத்தி வைத்திருப்பதாக இலங்கை அரசாங்கமும் சில தினங்களுக்கு முன்னர் அறிவித்தது.
இந்த நாட்டில் இந்தப் படத்தை வெளியிடுவதில் தடைகள் ஏதும் இருக்காது என்றுதான் நாங்கள் கருதுகின்றோம். ஏனென்றால் இந்தப் படத்தில் எந்தவொரு மதத்தவர்களுக்கோ இனக்குழுக்களுக்கோ அநீதி ஏற்படுத்தும் விதத்தில் ஏதும் இல்லை என்பதுதான் எமது கருத்து' என்று பிபிசியிடம் கூறினார் இலங்கை தணிக்கைச் சபை தலைவர்.
படத்தில் ஆட்களைக் கொல்லுகின்ற வன்முறைக் காட்சிகள் உள்ளதாகவும் அவற்றை நீக்கிவிட்டே படத்தை வெளியிடத் தீர்மானத்துள்ளதாகவும் இலங்கை தணிக்கைச் சபை கூறுகிறது.
இந்தியாவில் விஸ்வரூபம் படம் தொடர்பில் நீதிமன்றத்தில் வழக்கு இருப்பதனாலும் இலங்கையில் உள்ள சில முஸ்லிம் அமைப்புகள் எதிர்ப்பு தெரிவித்ததாலும் படத்தை வெளியிடாமல் நிறுத்தி வைத்ததாக காமினி சுமனசேகர தெரிவித்தார்.

Please don't get into the fight here. Because vishwaroopam is facing bigger problem here. But just to state the fact. Enthiran was bought for 1.5 million dollars for all three versions and it made 3.2 million dollars at the end of the run with a profit of 1.7 million dollars. Many people did not know that movie was going to be screened on Friday for Vishwaroopam, so as expected Vishwaroopam had a slow start but heard it has been doing very well on saturday and sunday. If it crosses 3.2 million dollars in all the versions, then I will be the first one to accept the fact that Vishwaroopam does break the Enthiran's record. But Kamal Sir needs support here and all Rajini fans should watch this movie only on theatres to support ulaganayagan. Originally Posted by Avadi to America

over time, they all change - evolve - some are stubborn and refuse to - when things dont change and evolve, they dont adapt to changes around them - and whey this conflicts with the rest of the people's evolved beliefs then it becomes a problem. Present day Islam in particular is facing this crisis.
Religion caters to our most primeval instincts of being in a clan / group identity - and self-preservation - which also helps/aids in the propogation of genes, since under the protection offered by the security of a large group, one can reproduce in larger numbers in safety - the chances of survival increases that way for the progeny - if one looks at packs of hyenas and lion prides - lions kill hyena newborns and vice-versa - hyenas produce more cubs to ensure survival - and importantly, hyenas work better as a group than lions do - hence have better chances of survival - at the 'higher' level of evolutionary heirarchy, chimpanzees work in clans as well - they fight over territory, kill, maim chimps that dont belong to their group.
we are close relative of the chimps - organized / institutionalized religion somehow, under the pretext of liberating ppl, actually strengthens deeply embedded traits described in previous para. Therefore, we fight in its name, coz it gives us a strong sense of identity and hence better chances of producing more of our kind.
Religious leaders understood this basic trait common to people, and knew how to exploit it - most followers are like sheep following the shepherd - 'aattu mandhai' - the crowd acknowledging/cheering that lunatic PJ every time he made obscene (obscene again maybe for us - for him, its not - in his subconscious, he is simply playing out his evolutionary part) is one such example.
Islam is the fastest growing religion in the world - not because of ppl voluntarily converting - but because the population growth rate is the highest amongst muslims. This is a fact.
The genocide against eezham tamils was possible because a tiny group of ethnic tamils could not be organized enough - they failed to understand their own darwinian impulses - and hence perished - hyenas, lions, cheetahs, leopards all had a field day - but in an ecosystem, even if some animals are on top of the foodchain, a balance is maintained - when lions die in large numbers due to distemper viral infections, it causes an abnormal increase in the population of other species - in the case of eezham tamils, it became convenient for everyone to slaughter them - since others were either profiting off it or were unaffected by the same. The remaining few who managed to survive have ran off to many parts of Europe and Canada (in particular), having lost their roots, cultural and otherwise and their pain and anguish can never ever be erased - but they will not forget, forgive maybe, but their survival instincts will ensure that they wont forget!
Its a jungle we live in - we are just that - as nihilistic and cynical i might sound, thats the way things are and will be - the age of enlightenment and reason gave us everything including this internet through which we are communicating - and yet, some groups of our species do not want to accept changes and will continue to pose a threat for themselves and others as well.
this is where collective democracies have the danger of imploding within - while the rest of the collective wants to move on, one group voices dissent on the most trivial of issues and forces the rest to sacrifice their hard-earned freedom - as it is happening now with VR
PS: most ppl here may not be aware - but in Darfur, Sudan, a profoundly militant Arab group (the Janjaweed) has already wiped out 10s of 1000s of innocent, poor subsistence farmers whose only fault lies in their being non arabs (http://www.hmh.org/au_geno_darf.shtml). Anbu sahodharar PJ and co should be happy/lucky that they are not in Darfur, or, in northwestern Pakistan, where their lot would have probably been constantly under attach for not being something other than what they are !

செல்லாது செல்லாது கமல் திட்டவட்டம்!!! இஸ்லாமிய தலைவர்கள் கோரிக்கை நிராகரிப்பு - படம் வெளிவருவதில் மீண்டும் சிக்கல்.
My assumption that the Sequel is already shot, is kinda assuredon 28 January 2013.
நடிகர் கமலஹாசனின் விஸ்வரூபம் படம் தொடர்பாக இன்று வழக்கின் தீர்ப்பு வெளியாகுமென எதிர்பார்க்கப்பட்ட நிலையில், தீர்ப்பு நாளை வரை தள்ளிவைக்கப்பட்டது.
இந்த நிலையில் இன்று மீண்டும் இஸ்லாமிய தலைவர்களுடன் நடந்த பேச்சுவார்த்தை சுமூகமாக நடக்கவில்லை என்றே தெரியவருகிறது.
இஸ்லாமிய கூட்டமைப்பை சார்ந்த தலைவர்கள் படத்தில் சுமார் ஒரு மணி நேரம் காட்சிகளை அகற்ற சொல்லி கேட்டிருக்கிறார்கள்.
விஸ்வரூபம் படம் ஏற்கெனவே கிட்டத்தட்ட 4 மணி நேரம் 45 நிமிடம் ஓட கூடியதாய் இருந்தது, அதனை நடிகர் கமல் திறமையாக இரண்டு பாகமாக உருவாக்கி வைத்துள்ளார்.
இதன் காரணமாகவே விஸ்வரூபம் படத்தின் முடிவில் அடுத்த பகுதி ஆரம்பிப்பதற்கான குறிப்பினையும் கொடுத்திருப்பார்.
இந்த நிலையில் இஸ்லாமிய கூட்டமைப்பினர் கேட்பது போல செய்தால் இரண்டு பாகங்களையும் ஒன்றாக இணைத்து வெளியிட்டால் மட்டுமே அது ஒரு முழு திரைப்படமாக இருக்கும் இல்லையெனில் சம்பந்தமே இல்லாத ஒரு குறும்படம் போல ஆகிவிடும். படத்தின் வியாபாரம் கண்டிப்பாக படுத்துவிடும் என்ற காரணத்தால் இதனை நடிகர் கமல் ஏற்க மறுத்துள்ளார்.

But looks like even there some retarded is going to create problems. I really don't know why they should show it Muslim leaders. I'm pretty sure government or censor board is not going to ban it for religious reasons. Tawheed Jamath is not a prominent group in SL in fact they are sort of a 'banned' group by Jamaithul Islam Board, but you never know, when it comes to such thing all religious bigots would get together.

Roshan - that brings to the original question - why did Kamal show VR to these jokers in the first place ?
I know he was playing it safe - but in hindsight, its almost like he sacrificed himself for absolutely nothing but the gain of a bunch of savages
intha kaattu mirandigalukku padathhaa kaattaamavey irundhirukkalam - padathha kaattinadhu Kamal oda perunthanmai - but that fact is something only very few seem to understand /realize.
on the part of the muslim groups, the scenario has played out something like this:
1. you make a film,
2. we dont care how much you have worked for it,
3. but before you screen, you better show it to us,
4. we found something objectionable,
5. therefore, we will do everything in our capacity to ban it,
6. we dont care the consequences to you from this - we only care abt how the film depicts us, or, how the we THINK it depicts us,
7. no matter what you say, or, do, we will continue to THINK that it shows us in bad light,
and
8. therefore, go back to 2, 5 and 6 - all over again - its a big f*c*ing "DO WHILE T" loop that they are trying to force Kamal into.
If you ask me - I personally think, NOT offending them is the actual problem - someone has to call a spade a spade and ask them to shut the f*ck up.
tomorrow, if Kamal plays an astronaut landing on the moon, these ppl would find that objectionable, since the crescent moon is sacred for muslims !
there is no limit to these arguments - what is required is dealing with an iron fist.
the high court's statement that the 'unity of the country' shd be kept in mind is a further kick in the groin for Kamal - why ? most muslims (or hindus or anyone else) in india have not seen the film yet - and when the high court makes irresponsible statements like this, it only serves to spread the word that there is 'actually something in the film that might be disruptive to national unity' - that makes the court culpable in creating disharmony !

The nation’s unity was more important than individuals’ rights. Any action taken by the petitioner or the other side should not be at the cost of the unity of the nation. "
It is as if this movie is so flagrant that it threatens the whole unity of the country and hence it is more important than the rights of a mere individual. I am not hopeful of tomorrow

A. It hurts sentiments if a terrorist tells you he once hid in your city? Why would it hurt people's sentiments? Unless he hid in their bathroom when they were showering and watched!

Very true Arvind. Even if it is cleared by MHC today (hoping so), I dont think it'll get released sooner. As per CH, they need to talk to the theatres for logistics and also two other movies may have blocked them. Then why are they fighting in courts?

Nice article in Hindu BusinessLine...
Kamal’s espionage thriller has run into rough weather with some Tamil Muslim groups, who found the actor guilty of depicting Muslims as terrorists. The Jayalalithaa Government’s swift response to put a 15-day “ban” on Vishwaroopam’s release might puzzle some, and appear “political” to others in a State where the film industry is so closely tied to politics. But its decision could be linked to the siege of the US Consulate in Chennai last year by a mob of Muslims. At that time, the protest was over the ludicrous movie Innocence of Muslims produced by Nakoula alias Sam Becile, who got his moment in the sun through Muslim protests around the world.
http://www.thehindubusinessline.com/...?homepage=true
As we all know, this can only continue unless it is stopped with "IRON" hand!!!
Question - Wasn't the COP Chennai removed from the job after this incident? Whatz the accountability on govt part?

Very nice compilation of posts, Ir...Firstly, I just feel it would take a miracle for the movie to come out unscathed. It would definitely be an outright victory for our guy. But such good endings happen only in movies...Secondly, I feel even with the advent of VR and VR-2, tamil cinema would still be in the same rut. There are too many kennathu thavalais in this industry who are just happy with what they are doing. Another point to ponder will be as to how Kamal comes out of this. Film's outcomea vidunga. What effect is this controversy gonna have on Kamal, the film maker ? Sudish kamath said that Kamal is probably India's biggest indy film maker. How true.... Originally Posted by irir123

If Jaya (TV) had bought the satellite rights and her money is at stake, she wouldnt have let this happen. Would she? I have a strong feeling that she is behind this and has a motive.
1. I think Barathiraja, Kamal & Shruthi should file a defamation case against that PJ guy.
2. Like someone said, Kamal can put a disclaimer at the start of the movie and as needed (similar to smoking & Drinking warning) instead of making cuts.
3. So many folks have had a free screening. Why cant he show the movie to a group of Muslim individuals (randomly picked) and get them to air their opinion?
4. How come KB, BM, Lingu, ARM havent expressed any views on the so called ban? I'm assuming they have seen a good portion of the movie if not the entire movie.
5. Did Kamal show VR to his friend Rajini? His aRikkai seemed so bland to me.

PETALING JAYA: A MIC leader has urged the Home Ministry not to join the conspiracy against the much anticipated Tamil movie Vishwaroopam starring Kamal Hassan.
“Kamal Haasan is a victim of South Indian politics. He is punished for not selling the television rights of Vishwaroopam to certain politically-owned media groups at a cheaper price.
“Let us not be a part or assist a certain media group in South India to punish a true legend of the Indian cinema,” said MIC strategy director S Vell Paari on Twitter.
Elaborating further Vell Paari said the first stumbling block against the movie came about when a group of Tamil Muslims aligned to the All India Anna Dravida Munnetra Kazhagam (AIADMK) filed a case with the Madras High Court, Tamil Nadu.
The filing came about after Jaya TV group, owned by Tamil Nadu Chief Minister J Jayalalitha, failed to buy the television rights of Vishwaroopam at a lower price. Jayalalitha is also an AIADMK leader.
Vishwaroopam is a spy thriller directed, co-produced and starring South Indian film star Kamal Haasan.
The movie revolves around international terrorism and Kamal Haasan dons three roles – an Indian classical dancer, Indian anti-terrorism agent and an agent who infiltrates a terrorist group.
In Malaysia, Vishwaroopam was suspended last Friday after cinemas began screening the movie.
Film Censorship Board’s (LPF) enforcement and control division secretary Razak Derahman told FMT that the screening of Viswaroopam was suspended on the orders of Home Minister Hishammuddin Hussein.
According to Razak, the Malaysian Indian Muslim Youth Movement sent a memorandum to the Home Ministry on Wednesday to oppose the screening of the movie that is alleged to hurt the religious sensitivities of Muslims.
A few days earlier, the Penang Muslim League held a protest against the movie in Penang.
Since then, calls to lift the suspension have come from various quarters such as Hindraf.
Controversial Bangladeshi author Taslima Nasreen who lives in exile in India called Malaysia a coward nation after the Indian media reported the suspension.
Meanwhile, Vell Paari also extended an invitation to Hishamuddin and his officials to watch Vishwaroopam.
“I want to invite Hishammuddin and his officials to watch a special screening of Vishwaroopam which I can arrange with film distributor, Lotus Five Star,” he said.

If jayalalitha does not help to release this movie even now then her image is a total damage. I am not worried about Kamal too much, because Kamal can survive as artist in any other nation and for him the worst possible scenario is Tamilnadu. So things can only get better for him. But Jayalalitha will lose Kamal fans votes for ever.

A probable scenario-These goons will soon file a petition before the governnent that idol worship is against their religion and their sentiments are being offended by public display of idol worship in temples.
The government will order closure of all temples.A PIL will be filed against this and our honourable judge will say that Law&Order and Unity of this country is more important than individual rights and uphold the ban.

A small digression..
Several years ago, I had an Indonesian colleague ...who was a huge Shahrukh Khan fan...
But he would get extremely annoyed , when he sees SRK going inside a temple ( in Koyla) or a Church (in DDLJ)....
And say that the 'Harami' should behave like proper Muslim...or be taught lessons to behave like a 'True' Muslim...
This kind of thought process was completely new and disturbing to me...having been brought up in India ...with all it's diversity...
I would ridicule him for getting so worked up...
Then, I remembered the kind of magic that the combined genius of Naushad Ali, Mohd.Rafi & Shakeel Badayuni could create for - 'Baiju Bhawra'...50 years ago...
The Bhajans created for this movie ...still ranks among the greatest ever created... Seems like we were a more sensible society then ( in spite of a bloody partition).
Our past is not spotless...though... Yusuf Khan had to change his name to Dilip Kumar , and Firoz Khan's was asked to do a 'mother promise' to not reveal his religion, when he played Arjun in B.R. Chopra's Mahabaratha...In fact the credits call this Khan ...as 'Arjun'.
Salman Khan was threatened by some 'fringe' Hindu outfits, after he signed up to play Lord Ram in Ramayan ( the project is now shelved)
But the objections from these Talibanized groups ...objecting to Kamal doing Naamaz in Vishwaroopam , and making veiled threats has taken cultural terrorism to a completely new level...
Now, I don't feel like at laughing at my Indonesian colleague anymore... I feel like ..we are progressively moving back to the bronze age...

Kudos to the Hindu Editorial setting the example for media's role.
"The delay in overturning the unjustifiable ban on Kamal Haasan’s Vishwaroopam is beginning to appear every bit as unjustifiable. It is difficult to fathom the rationale behind the Madras High Court deferring its decision on the film’s screening. "
"But in this case, the court has not even attempted to resolve the dispute. It has simply thrown the ball back at Kamal Haasan, asking him to find a way out of a mess that was not his making. In doing so, it has risked the unfortunate perception that it is reluctant to take a hard and forthright decision based on law."
I was talking to a co-worker in HYD and he said media would never let anything like this happen in AP, not for a movie. It is time for TN media to really play its role effectively.
Kamal/RKFI needs to be strong and go to SC if need be, with support from fans worldwide and seek media's support, which he will surely get when/if he talks to them.

'Viswaroopam' doesn't demean anyone or any religion
I REFER to the suspension of the screening of the Tamil film Viswaroopam by acting legend Kamalhassan, who directed and acted in the movie.
Firstly, I am a movie buff who enjoys watching different varieties of movies. Throughout the years, I have been thrilled, excited and even exposed to many contents and messages from viewing movies in many languages.
I can safely say that I have not been influenced nor brainwashed to do anything that is morally wrong or against the rules of the land by the films.
Although I do not claim that all movies only showed positive elements, I strongly believe that viewers should be given the ultimate choice of making that decision between right and wrong after being given the chance to view it subjectively.
Coming to the matter at hand, I have watched Viswaroopam, which is simply a political spy thriller cum action movie, a fiction movie with real incidents interspersed in the backdrop.
The movie is a pure entertainer with taut moments to keep you focused and spellbound till the end.
I did not see any scenes which condemned or belittled any religion in any way, nor did the movie try to propagate any propaganda or cryptic messages.
I am, therefore, puzzled that there are those who claim to have watched it and say that it portrays religion in a bad light. What did they watch?
There are groups, which are really a minority, that usually crop up to object whenever a major film or a film which presents something that is different than the norm is screened.
These groups do not promote creativity, subjectivity and freedom. They cause nations to regress.
I am puzzled when people create controversies when none exists. I urge such groups to rather work to improve our country and her citizens. Our country is a multi-racial country and certain issues that intentionally incite controversy by negative comments on religion and race should be vetted and weeded out.
However, banning everything without even trying, or giving people a chance, to understand what is the content and intention is reflective of an immature mindset.
In future, are we also going to ban news of real events just because a minority of people believe it portrays religion negatively?
Malaysia is well known around the world as one of the countries which has managed to find a balance between progress and moderation. Bans and censorship without justification can mar that image.

Sometimes to win a war, you may have to lose a couple of battles. If massaging some people's ego is the only salvation point, why not consider it? Especially when the saatchikaaran will not backtrack until he has his pound of flesh.
If someone really powerful puts her foot down, all others will run helter-skelter and we will see an unmutiliated film.

Any of this might happen in court today:
1. time will be given to state govt to file replies in all the petitions or
2. court will refuse to grant interim stay of ban order stating the entire case has to be heard on merits before passing any order (in both the scenarios sir is doomed)
3. court dismisses the petitions stating govt is justified in imposing ban to uphold law and order situation in the state (in this scenario sir can immediately approach SC which will not only lift the ban but also reprimand govt as well as HC judge)
4. court grants interim stay of the ban stating there is no cause of action for imposing ban and the ban will cause irreparable injury to the petitioner (pray to almighty-by whatever name one wants to call-for this scenario to happen)

PIL seeks ban on Viswaroopam
A public interest petition was filed in the High Court on Monday seeking ban of the controversial film Viswaroopam, produced and directed by popular film-actor Kamal Haasan, on the grounds that it shows Muslims as terrorists and the community has been portrayed as the one breeding terror.
Petitioner Mohammed Haji, businessman of the city, urged the court to direct the respondents--state chief secretary, Broadcasting Corporation of India, Central Board of Film Certification, ministry of information and technology and Kamal Haasan--to stop exhibiting the film.
The movie linked Muslims with terrorism and depicted Islam as ‘poison’ for humanity. Screening of such movies will affect social harmony, the petitioner said.

Hyderabad bizman moves HC against screening of Viswaroopam
A writ petition was filed in the Andhra Pradesh High Court today seeking ban on screening of actor-filmmaker Kamal Haasan's movie 'Viswaroopam' for allegedly "hurting religious sentiments of Muslim community".
The writ was filed by a city-based businessman Mohammed Haji.
Contending that the movie was "anti-Islamic, blasphemous and hurting to the religious sentiments of Muslim community", the petitioner has sought ban on screening and suspension of its exhibition.
"In the movie, Muslims are shown in a manner which is highly offensive and objectionable. It is a direct assault on religious beliefs and sentiments of Muslims," Haji said, adding that screening of such movies is detrimental to social harmony.
The petitioner requested the high court to issue directions to respondents Andhra Pradesh government, Central Board of Film Certification (CBFC) and Broadcasting Corporation of India (BCI) to ban the screening of 'Vishwaroopam' and suspend its exhibition.
The high court has not yet admitted the petition.
The screening of Telugu version of 'Viswaroopam' was resumed in Hyderabad city on January 26, a day after it was suspended on order of police.

Don’t join Vishwaroopam conspiracy, minister told
MIC's Vell Paari says Kamal Hassan is a victim of South Indian politics, and Hishammuddin Hussein must not be a part of this.
PETALING JAYA: A MIC leader has urged the Home Ministry not to join the conspiracy against the much anticipated Tamil movie Vishwaroopam starring Kamal Hassan.
“Kamal Haasan is a victim of South Indian politics. He is punished for not selling the television rights of Vishwaroopam to certain politically-owned media groups at a cheaper price.
“Let us not be a part or assist a certain media group in South India to punish a true legend of the Indian cinema,” said MIC strategy director S Vell Paari on Twitter.
Elaborating further Vell Paari said the first stumbling block against the movie came about when a group of Tamil Muslims aligned to the All India Anna Dravida Munnetra Kazhagam (AIADMK) filed a case with the Madras High Court, Tamil Nadu.
The filing came about after Jaya TV group, owned by Tamil Nadu Chief Minister J Jayalalitha, failed to buy the television rights of Vishwaroopam at a lower price. Jayalalitha is also an AIADMK leader.
Vishwaroopam is a spy thriller directed, co-produced and starring South Indian film star Kamal Haasan.
The movie revolves around international terrorism and Kamal Haasan dons three roles – an Indian classical dancer, Indian anti-terrorism agent and an agent who infiltrates a terrorist group.
In Malaysia, Vishwaroopam was suspended last Friday after cinemas began screening the movie.
Film Censorship Board’s (LPF) enforcement and control division secretary Razak Derahman told FMT that the screening of Viswaroopam was suspended on the orders of Home Minister Hishammuddin Hussein.
According to Razak, the Malaysian Indian Muslim Youth Movement sent a memorandum to the Home Ministry on Wednesday to oppose the screening of the movie that is alleged to hurt the religious sensitivities of Muslims.
A few days earlier, the Penang Muslim League held a protest against the movie in Penang.
Since then, calls to lift the suspension have come from various quarters such as Hindraf.
Controversial Bangladeshi author Taslima Nasreen who lives in exile in India called Malaysia a coward nation after the Indian media reported the suspension.
Meanwhile, Vell Paari also extended an invitation to Hishamuddin and his officials to watch Vishwaroopam.
“I want to invite Hishammuddin and his officials to watch a special screening of Vishwaroopam which I can arrange with film distributor, Lotus Five Star,” he said.

Irrespective of the court ruling, earliest timeframe for releasing in TN is 8th Feb. We need to have over 450 screens again but the theatres are all booked from Feb-1. Otherwise KH would have initiated discussion with govt as 'advised' by court. Since we dont know what govt would do after 15 days hold, this ruling is very important to clear the legal hurdles (or appeal to SC) from our side. Theatres and the general public (not the fans) need to have confidence when booking screens / tkts - uncertainity would be a killer amongst the public.

Vikatan,
Maddy and some of the others here are the perfect example of how this opportunity is being perfectly used by <Dings> to pull down Kamal! We see an army of "holy cows" who just could not hide their glee at kamals plight now.
And you are forgetting what S.Gurumurthys, Cho Ramaswamys, H Rajas et al - are capable of churning! There is definitely a "ulai oothi, thuruththu oothi" effort going on from the Hindutva diabolical plotters to trap Kamal!
-----------------------------------------
While there is so much care taken to call the protesting Muslims...as 'fringe groups' and care is taken that the whole community is not blamed...
Why should any Brahmin or a Hindu who opposes ...Kamal's Periyarist views ...be branded as a Hindutvaadi ?
Speaking for myself...I am spending time to learn the Upanishads and Vedanta..and am over-awed by the kind of profundity of thoughts , my ancients had...
And in spite of all the problems of my religion...I am very proud of the heights of thought that the sages of Hinduism have gone to...
I am not the member of Bajrang Dal and don't support the Sangh ...but why I should unfairly be called as a Hindutvaadi ?
I am a Hindu....and not a Hindutvaadi..I hope your hatred against Brahmins can let you see the difference between the two...

Maddy,
Do you seriously want Kamal to do the rounds of political parties begging for support??????
Do you seriously believe PC,Sonia,Rahul are all worthy of meeting at all.Lousy,corrupt politicians.
Whatever be my personal differences with Kamal's political and ideological views,it's a fact that he has steadfastly stayed away from political games,ass licking etc etc etc.
Probably he should stay away from any book release,audio release,movie launch or even a marriage which has anything remotely connected to a politician.You know,stay in a shell,move from home to location and back to home.He should go the Mani Ratnam way,not talk at all.
But that's a shame because he is naturally not like that.
And geno,
Pls stop this thing about Brahmins,THIS IS NOT ABOUT THAT.
Why on earth would Cho or S.Gurumurthy get involved in this unless Kamal makes the first move?
And I believe he is better off fighting this alone,the Sangh parivar is not his natural ally and now he would have realized that NOBODY is his ally.A very costly lesson learnt.

There should have been no place for such temporising given the clear judicial precedents in such cases. It was only two years ago that the Supreme Court set aside the two-month ban on the Hindi film Aarakshan on the ground that States cannot proscribe films that have been cleared by the Central Board of Film Certification on the mere apprehension that screening them may cause a law and order problem...... THE HINDU..

Sakala, i said including the interval time of 10 mins means it should have run 2.39 min right... But it ran only for 2.30 mins. so there should be some cuts for amounting to 9 mins.. Probably someone who had seen the movie earlier could identify where the cuts are.. Originally Posted by sakaLAKALAKAlaa Vallavar

kalyasi,
Scheduled for 1st Feb.But Balaji films which is the Hindi distributor(which I thought was a smart move from RKFI)is not doing any promos plus this problem which is preventing kamal from concentrating on that.But he should ensure it gets a wide release there.This controversy and the all round good reviews have generated enough publicity in North India too.

தொடர்ந்த ஆறு நாள் பயணத்துக்குப் பின் இன்றுதான் வீட்டுக்கும் ஃபேஸ்புக்கிற்கும் திரும்பிவந்தேன். நான் தொடுத்த நாடகத் தணிக்கைச் சட்ட வழக்கில் கிட்டிய வெற்றிக்கு வாழ்த்து சொன்ன அனைவருக்கும் நன்றி. மனுஷ்யபுத்திரனுக்கெதிராக சில இஸ்லாமிய அடிப்படைவாதிகள் கேவலமாக நடத்தி வரும் தாக்குதலுக்கு என் கண்டனத்தை பதிவு செய்ய விரும்புகிறேன்.
கம்ல்ஹாசனின் விஸ்வரூபம் படத்தைப் பொறுத்தவரையில், அதை தடை செய்யும் உரிமை தமிழக அரசுக்குக் கிடையாது. படத்தைப் பற்றிய அதிருப்தி இருப்பவர்கள் தணிக்கைக் குழுவிடம் முறையிடவேண்டும், அதன் முடிவை எதிர்த்து நீதிமன்றத்துக்கு செல்லலாம் என்பதே சட்டப்படியான சரியான வழிமுறை. துப்பாக்கி பட வழக்கில் இறுதித் தீர்ப்பில் இதையே நீதிமன்றம் கூறியிருக்கிறது. தரம் கெட்ட முறையில் போராட்டம் நடத்தி வரும் சில இஸ்லாமிய அமைப்புகளும் அதன் தலைவர்களும் ஒட்டு மொத்த இஸ்லாமியர்களின் பிரதிநிதிகள் அல்ல என்பதை நான் அறிவேன். இவர்களால் சாதாரண இஸ்லாமியர்களுக்கு நன்மையை விட தீமையே அதிகம். இந்தப் பிரச்சினைகளைத் தமக்கு சாதகமாக பயன்படுத்திக் கொள்ள விரும்பும் இந்துத்துவா சக்திகளையும் சினிமாவின் வணிக சக்திகளையும் தொடர்ந்து எதிர்ப்பேன். எல்லா மதமும் மக்களுக்கு எதிரானவையே, எல்லா மதவெறியும் மானுடத்தை அழிப்பவையே என்ற என் கருத்து தொடர்ந்து வலுப்பெறுகிறது.

இந்தப் படத்தைப் பார்த்த பல இஸ்லாமியர்களே அதை வரவேற்றுள்ளனர். எனவே தடையை நீக்கி உத்தரவிட வேண்டும் என்று வாதிட்டார்.

விஸ்வரூபத்திற்கு தொண்டு நிறுவனங்கள் ஆதரவு
விஸ்வரூபம் படத்திற்கு தமிழக அரசு தடை விதித்திருந்தபோதும், சில முஸ்லிம் அமைப்புகள் எதிர்ப்பு தெரிவித்திருந்தபோதும் பொதுமக்களிடம் அந்தப் படத்திற்கு ஆதரவு பெருகி வருகிறது. வெளிமாநிலங்களில் படம் வெளியாகி இருந்தாலும் அதன் திருட்டு விசிடி பெரிதாக வெளிவரவில்லை. காரணம் அதனை பொதுமக்கள் திருட்டி விசிடியில் பார்க்க ஆர்வம் இல்லாமல் இருக்கிறார்கள். அதேபோல படத்தை பார்க்க முன்பதிவு செய்தவர்களும் அந்தப் பணத்தை திரும்ப பெற ஆர்வம் காட்டவில்லை. படம் எப்போது வெளிவந்தாலும் அப்போது பார்த்துக் கொள்கிறோம் என்று கூறுகிறார்கள். இது தியேட்டர் அதிபர்களையே ஆச்சர்யப்பட வைத்திருக்கிறது.
தமிழக அரசு படத்துக்கு தடைவிதித்திருந்தபோதும் காவல்துறை மூலம் படத்தின் திருட்டு விசிடி வந்து விடாமல் தீவிர கண்காணிப்பில் ஈடுபட்டுள்ளனர். வீடியோ கடைகள், இணையதள மையங்களில் அதிரடி சோதனைகள் நடத்தி வருகிறார்கள். முன்பு அமைதியாக இருந்த திரைப்பட கலைஞர்களும் இப்போது கமலுக்கு தங்கள் ஆரவை தெரிவித்து வருகிறார்கள். அரசியல் கட்சிகளும் படத்தை திரையிட்டு கமல்ஹாசனை பொருளாதார நஷ்டத்திலிருந்து பாதுகாக்க வேண்டும் என்று குரல் கொடுத்திருக்கிறார்கள். வெளிமாநிலங்கள், வெளிநாடுகளில் படம் அடைந்துள்ள வெற்றி தமிழ்நாட்டு மக்களுக்கு இன்னும் ஆர்வத்தை ஏற்படுத்தியிருக்கிறது. இப்போது எந்த அமைப்பையும், ஆதரவையும் சாராத தொண்டு நிறுவனங்களும் விஸ்வரூபத்திற்கு ஆதரவு தெரிவித்துள்ளன.
அகில இந்திய மக்கள் நலப்பேரவை, அகில இந்திய அறிவொளி கல்வி அறக்கட்டளை, தாமரை சமூக தொண்டு நிறுவனம் ஆகிய பெண்கள் அமைப்பினர் நேற்று போலீஸ் கமிஷனர் அலுவலகத்தில் விஸ்வரூபம் படத்துக்கு பாதுகாப்பு கொடுத்து திரையிடுங்கள் என்று மனுக் கொடுத்துள்னர். மாவட்ட தலைநகரங்களிலும் அங்குள்ள தொண்டு நிறுவனங்கள் மாவட்ட ஆட்சித் தலைவரை சந்தித்து மனுக் கொடுத்து வருகிறார்கள்.

விஸ்வரூபம்: கமல் தமிழக அரசுடன் போசாமல் ஒதுங்கிய காரணம்.. பிளஸ் பாயின்ட்!
http://viruvirupu.com/2013/01/29/45709/
விஸ்வரூபம் படம் தொடர்பான விசாரணை நேற்று நடைபெற்றபோது, நாளை (இன்று) விசாரணைக்கு முன், அரசு அதிகாரிகளுடன் கமல் பேசி சுமுகமான முடிவுக்கு வரவேண்டும் என்று சென்னை உயர்நீதிமன்றம் அறிவுரை கூறிவிட்டே, விசாரணையை இன்றைக்கு ஒத்தி வைத்தது.
அதையடுத்து, கமல் தலைமைச் செயலகத்துக்கு வருவார் என அங்கு செய்தியாளர்கள் காத்திருந்தனர்.
ஆனால், கமல் வரவில்லை.
இந்த படத்துக்கு தடை விதித்ததில் தமிழக அரசுக்குதான் சிக்கல் ஏற்பட்டுள்ளது என கமலுக்கு எடுத்துச் சொல்லப்பட்டதாக தகவல். டில்லியில் இருந்தும் இந்த விஷயத்தில் கமலுக்கு சிக்னல் கொடுக்கப்பட்டது என்றும் கூறுகிறார்கள்.
தமிழக அரசு சட்டரீதியான தகுந்த காரணங்கள் இல்லாமல் செய்த தடை என்பதில் கமல் தரப்புக்கு ஒரு பிளஸ் உள்ளது. எனவே இன்றைய விசாரணைக்கு முன், தேவையில்லாமல் தமிழக அரசிடம் போய் எதற்காக உங்களுக்கு உள்ள பிளஸ் பாயின்டை இழக்க வேண்டும் என அட்வைஸ் கொடுக்கப்பட்டதாம்.
தமிழக அரசை சந்திப்பது என்றால், இன்றைய விசாரணையின் போக்கை பார்த்துவிட்டு முடிவு செய்வது என தீர்மானிக்கப்பட்டதாம்.
அத்துடன், இந்த விவகாரத்தில் இழப்பீடு கோரி, சுப்ரீம் கோர்ட்வரை கமல் செல்ல முடியும் என்கிறார்கள்.

Yes,buying time is now the main aim.
Don't care too much about the line of arguments.After all they have taken a decision to temp ban the film for 15 days and the same has to be justified in court.
The A.G. cannot come and say they are not sure why the decision was taken
I still think KH has to make an attempt to resolve with the govt(not with these thugs).Repeatedly telling that even if the court revokes the ban,these terrorists can create havoc.Can the government make pre-emptive arrests,will that help?
If groups of goons go about attacking theatres,will it not justify the government's stand that L&O problems will get created???
If the demands are impossible to meet,he should drop theatrical release in TN/Pondy and go in for a DTH/television premiere.
Seperately,he can file a suit against these idiots and the government demanding compensation for losses.

இன்று நடந்து கொண்டு இருக்கும் விஸ்வரூபம் படத்தின் தடையை பற்றி வழக்கு விசாரனையில் தமிழக அரசின் வழக்கறிஞர் வாதாடும் விதத்தை பார்த்தால், படத்தை தமிழக அரசு வெளியிட கூடாது என்பதில் உறுதியாக இருப்பதையே தெளிவாக கட்டுகிறது.
அரசு தரப்பு வாதங்கள். சென்சார்போர்டு ஒழுங்காக செயல்படவில்லை என்றும். தணிக்கை செய்த அதிகாரிகள் யாரும் மத்திய அரசால் நியமிக்க பட்டவர்கள் இல்லை என்றும். விஸ்வரூபம் படம் தணிக்கை செய்யப்பட்டதில் முறைகேடு நடந்து உள்ளதாகவும் . படத்தை விற்றுவிட்ட கமலுக்கு வழக்கு தொடர உரிமை இல்லை! என்றும் தனது வாதத்தை அரசு தரப்பு வழக்கறிஞர் கார சாரமாக அரசாங்க தரப்பு வாதங்களை தொடுத்து வருகிறார்.

I wish ppl teach lesson to those groups in theaters itself, when they attempt to stop the film. TN court still didn't release the verdict at this moment, Karnataka lifted the ban from today morning itself. From Afternoon, more theatres were added, which means, it was never completely stopped and was running in few theaters w/out issues. We know Kerala/AP running the film widely throughout the state. All this are live examples that TN can easily run the film. Mostly, the ppl and theater owner themself will counter the trouble-makers and send them away! Originally Posted by Lat Sar

Vishwaroopam: Why the onus of secularism falls on Muslims too
Even as we wait for the Madras High Court’s verdict on the ban on Kamal Haasan’s Vishwaroopam in Tamil Nadu, one cannot stop thinking how a film on Taliban/Al-Qaeda terror and the American “war” against it can denigrate Indian Muslims.
Other than the main villain of the movie – ostensibly modelled on the Taliban spiritual leader Mullah Omar – dropping names of places such as Madurai and Coimbatore to tell the audience how he is conversant with Tamil, there is no reference to any militant activity in India.
Non-Tamil characters speaking Tamil, or any other Indian language for that matter, is not new in Indian commercial cinema. We have heard the entire senior brass of Indian Army or civil servants in Delhi speak in Tamil. These are inherently flawed situations that audiences don’t object to. Everybody does it, and everybody has to do it.
However, Coimbatore and Madurai are not figments of anybody’s imagination.
In Coimbatore (1998) 50 people died and 200 injured in a series of blasts across 11 places while in Madurai, a low intensity bomb went off in 2012. Since 2010, there were at lest six incidents of bombs exploding or being detected in the city. Even if Omar’s claim of connections to these two places in Vishwaroopam are taken at face value, it actually rules out an Indian terror design at these places and indicates a foreign hand.
The main objections of the groups protesting against the movie are that it stereotyped Indian Muslims as terrorists.
Did it?
The movie is not about Indian Muslims, it is about Taliban and Al-Qaeda. The rogues or terrorists in the movie are the Taliban and the Jihadi networks dominated by the Afghanis. If at all anybody has suffered an image issue, it should be the Taliban and not Indians.
Then as summarised in an article on twocircles.net , there are obvious charges about the beard, the salwar kameez, speaking in Urdu, evoking the name of Allah etc. But we have seen and heard this many times before – not from Vishwaroopam, but routinely from the Islamic militants’ propaganda materials themselves. Are those incensed by Vishwaroopam saying that Taliban and Al-Qaeda don’t kill people in the name of a religion? And their terror-propaganda materials don’t exist?
Images and other socio-cultural constructs are part of the grammar of cinema in establishing a milieu, the central characters and the plot. It of course leads to some stereotyping because that in itself is the technique used for the construct. Even some of the most sensitive and well-informed film makers are not immune to this, when they make movies about alien contexts and cultures. Take a look at Life of Pi – it’s full of stereotypes.
The Taliban and Al-Qaeda image has been shown to us first not by Kamal Haasan, but by the real images from the field by the terrorists themselves and various public sources, not just the imperial media. Kamal hasn’t done anything original on this, other than copying them. His costumer could have worked a bit in fixing the details, whether it is the salwar kameez, the beard and the pakul (the Pashtun cap that the Pakistani army guys wear when they appear live on Indian television news programmes)
The article also refers to Muslim names being commonly being misused in Indian films: “And the most of the characters that portray the role of underworld mafias are shown as Muslims. And these characters definitely say “Assalamalikum” and “Masha Allah” and indulge in killing, extortion, drugs smuggling and women trafficking.”
Yes, it’s true; but they originate from media reports on smuggling, distribution of counterfeit notes from Pakistan, sending recruits to Pakistan for training and fighting in Kashmir, and sometimes even spying for ISI. Most often, these reports are sourced to the government, the police, the NIA etc.
Taking the reference to Taliban in a popular film as a reference to Indian Muslims and militating against an artistic expression is perhaps a conscious effort at fomenting trouble. It’s not only against the principle of free speech, but also against the principle of secularism, which is about a social order that is free from religions without being critical of religious beliefs.
In a complex democracy like India with a million beliefs, it is certainly not easy. But that is the only sensible way people can live in harmony.
It has been the job of the secularists to justify the conduct of organisations and rabid individuals with flawed logic and suspect agenda, every time they resort to aggression and violence on the streets in the name of a belief or faith.
What is tiringly repetitive is that the people the secularists often defend are sometimes indefensible; and that the latter’s language of human rights and conflation of agenda with issues of Dalits and other marginalised groups is just a cover for fanning disruption.
Not surprisingly, their maze of confederated organisations, ranging from human rights NGOs to media, rival the complexity of shell companies involved in shady deals or money laundering.
And secularism is not about equating Islamic terror with saffron terror or justifying one for the other. Both are dangerous and inimical to the peace and harmony of the country.
Some of the organisations that are up in arms against the movie have faced charges of fundamentalist activities and violence, and some leaders have even spent time in jails.
The mere presence of the organisations, that have either been noted for past radical behaviour or have morphed out of organisations of disrepute, is a serious cause of worry. For instance, the march in Thiruvananthapuram – where the movie was running to packed houses peacefully – as well as in other locations in Kerala, was Popular Front of India (PFI), which according to the Kerala government had connections with SIMI (Students Islamic Movement of India), an oragnisation banned by the Centre.
The state government had reportedly said that its activity was a threat to national unity and security. Its activists have been allegedly involved in the hand-chopping of a college professor for a controversial question paper that the latter had set. The former Kerala chief minister and CPM leader VS Achuthanandan had charged that the PFI had plans to Islamise the state over a period of twenty years.
Similarly, the TMMK in Tamil Nadu, which in fact triggered the trail of events against the movie, had also been alleged to have had links to SIMI, and its leaders had been arrested in connection with the Coimabatore blasts.
The fear of minorities, of intimidation and marginalisation by the majority, is real and needs to be sincerely addressed, but that is where the Constitution and the State have instituted safeguards. In addition, the Indian citizenry has demonstrated remarkable and consistent responsibility in protecting the interests of minorities and maintaining at least a minimum standard of secularism.
However, the irresponsible and violent acts that exploit and misinterpret the idea of secularism, that too by groups and individuals with a questionable intent, can only vitiate the atmosphere. They have to be defeated with utmost political and social resolve.
Secularism is not about protecting the fundamentalisation of one faith or the other. It is also not about stifling free speech, whether by Kamal Haasan or MF Hussain.
Secularism is everybody’s responsibility.

I feel the judge is being overly cautious...some twist will be there in the judgement. Perhaps providing permission to screen the movie but only after a few days (with some unwarranted advice to discuss further among varipus parties) or allowing the screening of the film but providing govt. authority to stop screening if communal situation arises (thereby prompting more disturbance).
The recent consulate related violence seems to be the baromater for all this.

Additional solicitor general for south India P Wilson told Justice K Venkataraman on Tuesday that 'Vishwaroopam' had no words or visuals which could hurt sentiments of any community.
Justifying the censor clearance for the film, he said all mandatory requirements of the Cinematograph Act and its rules had been complied with by the censor board, which issued censor certificate to the film on October 17, 2012.
Earlier, Tamil Nadu advocate general A Navaneeakrishnan claimed that the film had not been duly certified by the censor authorities in accordance with law. Standing by the government authorities' decision to defer release of the film, Navaneethakrishnan said film certification by censor authorities was a big scam requiring full-fledged probe by a special committee. Producers of 'Vishwaroopam' have not come to the court with clean hands, and they do not have any enforceable legal right to demand its release, he said.
...
Kamal's senior counsel, P S Raman, made an impassioned plea that the Tamil superstar had invested his life time savings in the film, and that any further delay in its release will sullen the actor. To call it a total ruination (of the actor) is no exaggeration, he said.

Breaking News: Madras High Court lifts the ban on Kamal's Vishwaroopam
Jan 29, 2013
The ban on the release of Kamal Haasan’s Vishwaroopam has been lifted by the Madras High Court. The interim order has turned out to be in favor of Kamal Haasan and the Madras High Court has put the Tamil Nadu government’s ban in abeyance. The High Court has also said that the film can be released tomorrow.
But the Tamil Nadu government is planning for a re-appeal tomorrow and theater owners will have to wait for the green signal from the government before deciding on playing Vishwaroopam in theaters.

As HC Judge seen the movie and given the verdict, SC will take note of it in final order... Also to note that HC judge did not mention any controversial scenes in the judgement atleast as of now we know..

if theatre owners main/only interest is recovering invested capital, they are likely to listen to JJ only if she reimburses them for the losses ! do you really think she is insane enough to do that ? does she have so much veritthanam to even pay off the theatre owners to postpone the film's screening /release ?

TN govt is basically appealing the interim order of HC lifting the ban. SC should not allow the TN govt to put back the ban while it hears the case.

1. If Vishwaroopam gets released tomorrow and Kadal/David get postponed, it will be a 5 day massive opening for us. It will recover more than half the investment in the first 5 days.
2. Kamal has nothing to lose now. Even if the K/D get released on Friday & eat into Vishwa's collections, Kamal still will not be losing 30-80 cr which he feared. It should break even in the long run.
3. What I feel if K or D get released on Friday, they are the ones who will be affected by the Vishwaroopam wave and not vice versa. Odhungiporadhu nalladhu.

JJ seems to be intent on digging a bigger hole for herself. When she banned the movie, she probably expected Kamal to run to her and take a photo falling at her feet. That didn't happen. The lame reasons given by the govt. lawyer exposes them thoroughly. She could have used this incident to show how strong she is by putting down the protesters and maintaining law and order. She didn't. Doubt she will give up easily now!
The judge, though he took his time, didn't bow completely to the political powers.
Kamal's handling of this issue has been impressive. No arikkais or emotional speeches. Just going by the law. He could have easily used his fan clubs to do something but didn't. Well done! Let's see what he does tomorrow.
Forget the press conference, just release the movie ASAP in whatever theaters are available. Once people see the movie, this whole farce will be exposed. Just one theaterful of people should be more than all the protesters put together.

these are head-spinning moments!
1. could it be possible - as 'comments' implies - that JJ wanted Kamal to fall down at her feet ?? what for ? she has not even directly said anything to him abt him praising PC has she ? it might be the truth - but how the heck would Kamal even know thats the case ?
2. so lets say kamal chooses to approach JJ - what is likely to happen ? just falling at her feet will get rid of the PJ et al groups who will immediately call off the protests ?? i dont see that happening
3. unless there was some deeper animosity between JJ and Kamal - or maybe am being naive

One question that may come up in many people's mind: Why can't KH take up some other theme? Such as, the same old good guy versus bad guy theme. The answer in my view is not that he cannot do that. It's obviously a lot easier to do that. What amazes me is that, in spite of knowing all this, he is steadfast in the kind of movies he takes up.
-
From: sakaLAKALAKAlaa Vallavar on 30th January 2013 02:13 AM [Full View]
@above, I guess hereaafter I strongly expect kamal to take a diversion! Or atleast reduce the intensty!Like he himself says in Anbe Sivam "வாழ்க்கை முழுக்க போராடிட்டு இருக்கமுடியாது!" He may have that energy but we fans, producers, and even his opposers won't have!
Also, i, even though remain one of his staunch ardent fan, some how feel that kamal shud thank the Hindu ppl who opposed him but never went to this level to torture him! He need not change his stand but he need to acknowledge that they are much civilized in showing their opposition! Surely they deserve a pat from kamal and kamal owe one to them!
Going by the trend, he may even change Vishwaroopam2 to make it more problem-proof script. Or even drop it and go straight to that Hollywood Film!

As I said earlier, the key is to ensure that the divisional bench (typically a 3 judge panel) does not put back the ban after hearing the TN govt appeal at 10.30 AM.

Whatever the original reason may be at both sides, Kamal shud be feeling that he shud not miss to win legally and honestly in the battle, becos he, as he himslef mentions, has been a victim of this small groups and If once he teaches a lesson to them via courts, next time, any fringe group would think twice before thinking of giving any problems to Kamal or any other ppl. Since, for good or bad, the State Govt too joined the oppn.side, whole thing took a Vishwaroopam and in a way, its good to see Govt getting its nose-cut and feeling the heat too, atleast in this issue! Becos it is never worrying for the real reasons it shud worry, like power-shortage, price rice etc.
The Islam outfits talking in media shows kept on highlighting that how they suffer in various things. One being not getting houses for rent, jobs etc easily. Well if vishwaroopam is banned, the situation is not going to improve. If its releasing too, the situation is not going to get much worse. The real solution cud be that these outfits shud keep on and loudly opposing Islam terrorism even out of Inda, such that all other religion ppl shud feel that you ppl are really opposing it loudly. And also its exactly these kind of problems they shud highlight and fight with govt, to get rid of. govt shud take steps for solving this issue. These outfits shud have noble intentions that its in same place that all ppl are going to live, and not jsut physically, but also mentally, all communities shud mingle. Means they shud take genuine steps.
but acts like opposing genuine artists like kamal, either intentionally or just to obey the orders of amma and acting before soceity, they shud think the gap is increasing much more. The funny thing is, these outfits clearly know the root problems they themselves are making to widen the gap. Then there is no use in bringing such issues and putting the blame on movies! Ppl today are much clever! Even in this issues, if 1000 ppl supported kamal, 100 ppl parallely doubted him with various mind-boggling reasons!

it is ridiculous if it is sold for 1.5 crores. Even Dasa was sold for 3 crores and if I remember it right UPO itself sold for bigger price than this. 1.5 million dollars price tag looks lot better than this. Kamal appeared with crew on fremont theatres and for those shows the charge was $40/ ticket. engEyO uthaikkuthu.

No sakala. Blue sky bought for entire north america I think. Even at 1.5 million dollars price tag they will make lot of money. This movie is a sure shot to cross 2 million dollars atleast at end of the tamil and telugu run. Blue sky is telugu distributors and I can find out from my friend who is distributing in southern california to find out what could be the actual amount. Originally Posted by sakaLAKALAKAlaa Vallavar

IRIR - the haste with which the govt acted, the lame excuses the lawyer gave and now, the visit to the chief justice to stop the release, all point to JJ's displeasure with Kamal. The "falling at the feet" is a standard technique that has been used often... not that Kamal would also do it. If she really didn't have anything against Kamal, after the judgement, the govt. could have said that they stand by the court's ruling and would provide protection but they didn't!

விஸ்வரூபம்: முதல் அமர்வு முன்னிலையில் இன்று விசாரணை
சென்னை உயர் நீதிமன்ற தலைமை நீதிபதி (பொறுப்பு) எலிபி தர்மாராவ் தலைமையிலான முதல் அமர்வு முன்னிலையில் "விஸ்வரூபம்' திரைப்படம் தொடர்பான மேல்முறையீடு இன்று காலை விசாரணைக்கு வர உள்ளது.
தீர்ப்பை எதிர்த்து தலைமை நீதிபதி அடங்கிய முதல் அமர்வில் புதன்கிழமை மேல் முறையீடு செய்ய உள்ளதாகவும், அதுவரை தீர்ப்பை நிறுத்திவைக்குமாறும் தமிழக அரசின் சார்பில் கோரிக்கை விடுக்கப்பட்டது. ஆனால், நீதிபதி கே.வெங்கட்ராமன் இந்தக் கோரிக்கையை நிராகரித்தார்.
இதைத் தொடர்ந்து, தனி நீதிபதியின் உத்தரவுக்கு தடை விதிக்கக் கோரி தமிழக அரசின் அட்வகேட் ஜெனரல் ஏ.நவநீதகிருஷ்ணன் தலைமையிலான வழக்குரைஞர்கள், நீதிபதி எலிபி தர்மாராவின் வீட்டிற்கு செவ்வாய்க்கிழமை இரவு 11 மணிக்குச் சென்று முறையிட்டனர்.
அவர்களிடம் பேசிய நீதிபதி இப்போது முதல் அமர்வுக்கான நீதிபதி இல்லாததால், இன்று(புதன்கிழமை) காலை 10.30 மணிக்கு முதல் அமர்வில் இது தொடர்பாக முறையிடுமாறும், இந்த வழக்கை முதல் வழக்காக விசாரிப்பதாகவும் அவர்களிடம் கூறினார்.

Kamal and Rajini were no less eloquent in praising her (this was long after the famous JJ-Rajini tiffs).
and inspite of all of that, JJ holds grudges against the TFI makkals ?

So it's just Vishwaroopam and Kadal. Has a Mani Ratnam and a Kamal Haasan movie clashed before ? Dont think any KH n MR movies have released in such close proximity either ( considering the fact that VR released a week ago on the 25th). But one thing's sure, 25th - 30th has to be the longest 5 day period in my life. It feels like a fortnight.......I felt kindoff the same when I watched Dasa 4 times in the first week. But this has got to take the cake.....

The dignity and composure that Kamal maintained throughout the episode... is simply amazing. No impassioned pleas...no unnecessary drama...no speeches inciting his fans...nothing. The man was so cool in his fan-interactions & press-meets. Did not look like somebody who had so much to lose . I did not hear single angry reaction or abusive word from him..in-spite of all the dirt that was thrown on him by the trouble-makers...
That is a lesson for some of the tantrum throwing emotional Bollywood stars, notably the Khans...who have silly tiffs with other Khans...Congrats Kamal! You faced it like a man...and have come out winning.

Vishwaroopam Movie To Finally Hit The Theaters In Tamil Nadu
NEW DELHI, Jan 30 (Bernama) -- The wait for mega-budget movie, Vishwaroopam, could have been the most painful one for adherent fans of Kamal Hassan in Tamil Nadu as well as those in countries like Malaysia and Singapore.
The verdict is finally out; the Madras High Court lifted Tamil Nadu government's ban on the movie.
Justice K. Venkatraman gave the green light for the movie to be screened in the Southern State at 10pm (IST) on Tuesday.
"The film can be released in theatres on Thursday and the Section 144 order issued by the district collector will be kept in abeyance," Press Trust of India (PTI) reported quoting Venkatraman as saying in an interim order.
The film would be released without any cuts or edits, it said.
"I have watched the film and it has no scenes that hurt the sentiments of Muslim community," Venkataraman had said earlier.
The state government however, has indicated that it would appeal against the lifting of the ban.
The movie was due to release on Jan 25, in Tamil Nadu, but a petition was filed, which resulted in two weeks's ban at the eleventh hour following objection from members of Muslim organisation that claimed that it depicts the community in bad light.
Accordingly, the screening of the movie, which was made in three languages - Tamil, Telugu and Hindi was suspended in several other states in India, namely Kerala, parts of Hyderabad, Karnataka and Andhra Pradesh Jan 25, soon after the first show.
The film resumed playing in as many as 40 theatres amidst police security in Karnataka Tuesday morning, said PTI.
It was released with the tagline included in the credits, "All Muslims are not terrorists and the characters depicted in this film are imaginary," said the report.
In Malaysia, the movie was released as scheduled on Thursday, Jan 24, but was pulled out on Friday noon onwards after a directive from the Home Ministry.
Screening of the movie in Singapore and Sri Lanka was also delayed.
The Rs95 crore (US$17.6 million) film has been written, directed and produced by Kamal Hassan.
Besides Kamal Hassan himself in the led role, other artists in the movie include Pooja Kumar, Andrea Jeremiah, Rahul Bose, Shekhar Kapur and Jaideep Ahlawat.
Its Hindi version Vishwaroop is slated to release on Feb 1.

PETALING JAYA: MIC has urged the Government to lift the suspension of Viswaroopam, a Tamil film directed by legendary actor Kamal Hassan, who also starred in the movie.
MIC strategic director S. Vell Paari said the spy thriller portrayed incidents of terrorism but had nothing to do with religion.
He joined the call by Hindraf Makkal Sakti for the Government to allow the screening of the movie.
Vell Paari added that he had extended an invitation to Home Minister Datuk Seri Hishammuddin Hussein and his officers to attend a special screening of the movie and decide whether it was anti-Islam as alleged by some quarters.
“I am sure the film distributors, Lotus Fivestar AV, will accommodate the request,” he said.
The Film Censorship Board of Malaysia had initially approved Viswaroopam for public viewing and Lotus Fivestar AV started screening the movie on Jan 24.
The approval, however, was withdrawn the next day following a Home Ministry directive.
The board’s control and enforcement division secretary Razak Derahman said the movie was suspended on Hishammuddin’s orders.
Meanwhile, Penang Hindu Association deputy president P. Murugiah said the Government must be consistent with their guidelines on the screening of films in the country.
He said the association had, in 2008, called on the Government not to allow the screening of the Mike Myers movie, The Love Guru, which allegedly had elements that were sensitive to Hindus.
“But there was no response from the Government,” said Murugiah, adding that the Hollywood comedy had defamed the beliefs and hurt the sensitivities of millions of Hindus in Malaysia and around the world.
The film, written and produced by Myers, who also acted in it, starred several renowned names, includ*- ing Justin Timberlake and Ben Kingsley. It was a flop at the box office.

As far as the court is concerned, there is no emergency. They have already ruled. Theaters are free to release. There is no legal reason to stop. Just the unofficial pressure.
Instead of trying to get all theaters onboard, Kamal should just find some brave theater owners and screen the movie. Maybe even for free. He should also arrange for as many shows as possible for celebrities and popular personalities. Just get it going. Even if one show is completed successfully, the whole thing will fizzle out.

If even after the order, the govt is not allowing the theaters to screen the movie, Kamal should file a lawsuit for disrespect of the judge.
The cowardice of all these guys is quite stunning. In the past, when there were protests by fringe groups, the govt kept quiet. So, if the film industry kept quite, it didn't matter. This is the first one where the govt is abusing its power. That's why the film industry needs to open its mouth ... not some appeal for talks!

காட்சி ஹவுஸ்ஃபுல்லாகி தியேட்டருக்குள் படம் பார்த்துக் கொண்டிருந்த ரசிகர்களை வெளியே போகுமாறு போலீஸ் கேட்டுக் கொண்டது.
ஆனால் ரசிகர்கள் யாரும் தியேட்டர் அசையாமல் தியேட்டருக்கு உள்ளேயே இருக்கின்றனர். படத்தை போடும்படி கோஷமும் எழுப்பி வருகின்றனர்.
இதற்கிடையே படம் திரையிடப்படுவது ரத்து என தியேட்டர் ஊழியர் ஒருவர் சொன்னதாக சொல்லப்படுகிறது. அதையடுத்து அங்கு பதட்ட நிலை ஏற்பட்டுள்ளது.

I dont need money. I have many houses to eat in tamil nadu. My friend says my name is ulaganayagan, so if I am kicked out of tamil nadu, I will find out another state where they support. From Kashmi to Kerala, if I dont have a state, I will go to different country where they dont have religious madness. I am not worried about house. I dont have religion, caste or money, but my talent stays with me.

I dont know whats happening, various reasons told to me, none of them make sense to me. I am about to get interim relief. Film start and stopped by Police again. Police is demanding physical evidence from the court. We are waiting for judge to give us a physical copy. I am not sure if we will get it. I dont believe in political game. Fact is, my history have proven that I am neither left or right. Judge in the interim relief has said that one man's work and money is more important than the nation. I agree with him, but for the sake of the nation, I spoke to my money lender who had shown great patience. He lost his patience now, so I have pledged all my properties in Chennai, so if I may loose everything if the movie is not released. I dont know how 1 movie may impact entire nation. I shall wait for afternoon judgement. After this, I have to seek a secular state for me to stay in. i have lost everything in this state, so I will look for a place from kashmir to kerala, so I will find a place. If I cant find this in India, which I will know in couple of days, I will find hopefully another country in the world. MF Hussain have done this, so Hassan can do. Only my passport will change, but nothing will change the fact that I am tamilian. I know Malayalam, Telugu and even Hindi, so I will seek a place in India. If not, I will move on.

We have every right to criticize Kamal movie or his beliefs, but he should be given enough freedom to make movies. In my opinion, Kamal is strong and carrying himself very well.

And now she keeps changing here targets. Now she is doing this crap fight becos she is confident this won't dent her vote bank.
That apart, nobody is asking some basic questions.
A. The Islams telling that already they are in worse condition, not getting homes, jobs,
1. Will stopping Vishwa improve that? Or releasing that worsen it?! No
2. Did those Dastards spoke about that and forced JJ to change this situation?!

படம் சுமூகமாக வந்தால் கண்டிப்பாக அப்படி நினைத்திருக்க மாட்டொம் !
ஆனால் இப்பொது நீங்கள் செய்த காரியத்தால் அப்படி நினைப்பதில் தப்பேதும் இல்லையென்றே தோன்றுகிறது.

I haven't seen the interview. I won't be able to see till I get home today - God knows when that will be.
I hear he was talking about leaving TN
Is there a way to send money directly Raajkamal films - like what we give to wikipedia, thiraipaadal etc.
I am not being emotional or saying this in passing. I seriously seriously mean it.
It will not compensate him anywhere close to what he is losing. But something - like one day's salary from each of the fans - may help temporarily hold things up.
It is vexing to see a man who I understand has put his last shirt in this being bankrupted by our govt.
It is NOT compensation of charity, but a feeble counteraction to what this govt is doing to him.

Nothing wrong with it.
As for comparison to M F Hussain.I feel Kamal has been pushed into a corner even more.Hussain had a lot of support incl from governments,Kamal has none.
And yes,from the posts it not looked like he has said anything about the people/state in general.He has only spoken about his predicament.

Point # 1 : HC orders yesterday has to be implemented i.e Collectors will have to withdraw their section 144 orders.Then film get can get screened in theatres if violence by thugs is contained.
Point 2 : Since govt has appealed against yesterday's orders,the intention is to see that collectors don't withdraw Section 144 on the assumption that division bench will stay yesterday's verdict.If the division bench does not stay,then the Collectors have to withdraw Section 144 or it will amount to contempt and collectors can land up in jail.
All RKFI needs is today's division bench not staying yesterday's verdict but telling that both parties can argue and then they will decide if the Single Judge was right or wrong.
This will clear up release immediately.
However,if the division bench rules against the single judge verdict,then off goes the film from theatres and RKFI will have to move the SC.
Appadi achunna,theatres will get vexed and tell RKFI,SC judgement-oda vaanga,release pathi pesalam.
Extremely tough times for him,hope he doesn't lose his cool and more importantly his assets.
His peers,come out in support guys,Shame on you.

Agree on the fund,it is not charity.He made a film for fans and so they have the right to make good the losses occured due to considerations other than the fact that people did not like the movie.
Somebody,pls take this up with RKFI.
Another way is to for RKFI to go public,fans will subscribe for shares.
But option 1 is better.In option 2,some JJ adiyaal will become a share holder and start asking questions

PETALING JAYA: Home Minister Hishammuddin Hussein’s officers along with officials from the Islamic Development Development (Jakim) viewed the controversial Tamil movie, Vishwaroopam yesterday.
“More than 10 people viewed the movie yesterday. They include the home minister’s political secretary Markiman Kobiran, Hishammuddin’s special aides and about three to four Jakim officers,” said Film Censorship Board’s (LPF) enforcement and control division secretary Razak Derahman.
A meeting was scheduled to be held today to decide the fate of the movie in Malaysia.
Markiman, when contacted, declined to comment.
The screening of Vishwaroopam was suspended last Friday due to a memorandum handed over by Malaysian Indian Muslim Youth Movement. This happened after cinemas began screening the movie.
The group sent the memorandum on Wednesday, claiming that the movie hurt the religious sensitivities of Muslims. Several days ago Penang Muslim League also protested against the movie.
Four LPF officers had initially given the green light for the movie be screened.
Vishwaroopam is a spy thriller directed, co-produced and starring South Indian film star Kamal Haasan.
The movie revolves around international terrorism and Kamal Haasan dons three roles – an Indian classical dancer, Indian anti-terrorism agent and an agent who infiltrates a terrorist group.
The movie also faced similar problems in Tamil Nadu, India.
Yesterday MIC strategy director S Vell Paari said that the hurdle to screen the movie in India was due to a television network’s failure in buying the television rights from Kamal Hassan.
The hurdle came in the form of a case filed by Tamil Muslims linked to the All India Anna Dravida Munetra Kazhagam (AIADMK) party. The television network is linked to Tamil Nadu Chief Minister J Jayalalitha, an AIADMK leader.
The ban on the movie in India had been lifted after the central government intervened today. However the Tamil Nadu state government has said that it would be appealing against the decision

Stochastic Probability Theory - Pregnant Deer Scenario
Consider this scenario: In a remote forest, a pregnant deer is about to give birth to a baby. It finds a remote grass field near by a fierce river and slowly goes there thinking it would be safe. As she moves slowly, she gets labor pain, at the same moment, dark clouds gather around that area and lightning starts a forest fire. Turning left she sees a hunter who is aiming an arrow from a distance. As she tries to move towards right, she pots a hungry lion approaching towards her.
Stochastic Probability Theory - Pregnant Deer Scenario
What can the pregnant deer do ….as she is already under labor pain ?
What do you think will happen?
• Will the deer survive ?
• Will it give birth to a fawn ?
• Will the fawn survive ? or
• Will everything be burnt by the forest fire ?
That particular moment ?
Can the Deer go left ? – Hunter’s arrow is pointing
Can she go right ? – Hungry male lion approaching
Can she move up ? – Forest fire
Can she move down ? – Fierce river
Answer: She does nothing. She just focuses on giving birth to a new LIFE.
The sequence of events that happens at that fraction of a second (moment) are as follows:
In a spur of MOMENT …a lightning strikes (already it is cloudy ) and blinds the eyes of the Hunter. At that MOMENT, he releases the arrow missing and zipping past the deer. At that MOMENT the arrow hits and injures the lion badly. At that MOMENT, it starts to rain heavily and puts out the forest fire. At that next MOMENT, the deer gives birth to a healthy fawn.
In our life, it is our MOMENT of CHOICE and we all have to deal with such negative thoughts from all sides always. Some thoughts are so powerful they overpower us and make us clueless. Let us not decide anything in a hurry. Let us think of ourselves as the pregnant deer with the ultimate happy ending. Anything can happen in a MOMENT in this life.
If you are religious, superstitious, atheist, agnostic… or whatever… you can attribute this MOMENT as Divine intervention, faith, sudden luck, chance (serendipity), coincidence… or a simple ‘don’t know’. We all feel the same. But, whatever one may call it, I would see the priority of the deer in that given moment was to give birth to a baby because...LIFE IS PRECIOUS.
Hence, whether you are deer or a human, KEEP THAT FAITH AND HOPE WITHIN YOU ALWAYS.
My instinct says this film will release so soon and surpass all records

I really don't understand how this legal thing works. Yesterday HC revoked the ban and again their banning. Does this mean they did not follow the procedures properly yesterday? If so who is responsible for this?

JJ is keen on dragging this beyond 15 days..as she had it banned for 15 days..to ruin him financially and hurt his ego/self-respect/faith..to satisfy her ego. Hence, next hearing on Feb 6..to prolong it further..
As simple as that. All other benefits (if any) to her are a bonus.
It is not that they don't know the movie is running successfully and peacefully in other state/countries. This is inspite of that....ONLY because people of TN are quiet. 50-100 TN stars/artistes - Actors Association (Sarath Kumar) together must write to SC immediately about this..if they have any spine.

ராமநாதபுரம்: ராமநாதபுரத்தில் விஸ்வரூபம் திரையிடப்படவிருந்த தியேட்டர் மீது பெட்ரோல் குண்டு வீசப்பட்டது. ராமநாதபுரத்தில் உள்ள சினிமா தியேட்டர் ஒன்றில் நாளை விஸ்வரூபம் படம் திரையிடப்படுவதாக இருந்தது. இந்நிலையில், இன்று அங்கு வந்த கும்பல் ஒன்று தியேட்டர் கண்ணாடிகளை உடைத்ததுடன், பெட்ரோல் குண்டுகளையும் வீசினர். இதனால் அங்கு பரபரப்பு நிலவுகிறது.
Who said there is no Law & Order Problem? Here it is. Hence it is banned. Superla.

'யார் என்று புரிகிறதா
இவன் தீ என்று தெரிகிறதா
தடைகளை வென்றே
சரித்திரம் படைத்தவன்
ஞாபகம் வருகிறதா’ - 'விஸ்வரூபம்’ படத்தில் வரும் பாடல் வரிகள் இவை. தடைகளைத் தாண்டி கமல் எப்படி வெல்லப்போகிறார் என்பதை தமிழகமே எதிர்பார்த்துக் காத்திருக்கிறது. விஸ்வரூப விவ காரத்தில் திரைக்குப் பின்னால் நடக்கும் சில விஷ யங்கள் இங்கே...
பிரச்னைக்குக் காரணம், தி.மு.க. நெருக்கமா?
''சென்சார் போர்டில் அசன் முகம்மது ஜின்னா என்ற முஸ்லிம் ஒருவரே படத்தைப் பார்த்து ஓகே செய்து இருக்கிறார். அப்படி இருக்கும்போது படத்தை எதிர்ப்பது எந்த வகையில் நியாயம்?’ என்று கமல் தரப்பில் கேட்கிறார்கள். இந்த ஜின்னா யார் தெரியுமா? கடந்த சட்டசபைத் தேர்தலில் ஆயிரம் விளக்குத் தொகுதியில் வளர்மதியை எதிர்த்து தி.மு.க. சார்பில் போட்டியிட்டவர்.
மனிதநேய மக்கள் கட்சி எம்.எல்.ஏ-வான ஜவாஹிருல்லா, ''முஸ்லிம்களுக்கு எதிரானகாட்சிகள் 'விஸ்வரூபம்’ படத்தில் இருப்பதாக செய்தி வந்ததும் அதற்குக் கண்டனம் தெரிவித்து அறிக்கை வெளி யிட்டோம். உடனே, கமல் சார்பில் என்னிடம் பேசியவர் ஜின்னாதான். 'படத்தின் டிரைலரைப் பார்த்து விட்டு எதிர்க்க வேண்டாம். கமல் பேசத் தயாராக இருக்கிறார்’ என்றார். படத்தை சென்சார் செய்வதோடு ஜின்னாவின் வேலை முடிந்து விட் டது. அவர் எதற்காக கமலுக்கு ஆதரவாகப் பேச வேண்டும்? அப்படிப்பட்டவர் எப்படி படத்தை சென்சார் செய்திருப்பார்?'' என்கிறார்.
தி.மு.க-வுடன் கமல் காட்டிய நெருக்கம்தான் விவ காரம் விஸ்வரூபம் எடுக்கக் காரணம் என்கிறார்கள் விவரம் அறிந்தவர்கள். ''படத்தின் சேலம் உரிமத்தை உதயநிதி ஸ்டாலின் வாங்கி இருக்கிறார். சென்சார் போர்டில் தி.மு.க-வைச் சேர்ந்த ஜின்னா, ப.சிதம்பரம் நூல் வெளியீட்டு விழாவில் கருணாநிதியோடு கமல் மேடை ஏறியது, இவற்றை எல்லாம் ஆளும் கட்சி ரசிக்கவில்லை. அதன்பிறகுதான், கமலுக்குப் பிரச்னைகளும் ஆரம் பம் ஆனது'' என்கிறார்கள்.
ஜின்னா என்ன சொல்கிறார்? ''எந்த மதத்தின் உணர்வும் புண்படுத்தப்படுவதை தணிக்கைத் துறை விதிமுறைகள் அனுமதிப்பது இல்லை. வழி காட்டும் முறைகளின்படிதான் தணிக்கை நடக்கிறது. சமுதாயத்தின் அமைதியைக் குலைக்கக்கூடிய வகை யிலோ, உணர்வுகளைப் புண்படுத்தும் வகையிலோ, வக்கிரம் மற்றும் ஆபாசம் நிறைந்ததாகவோ காட்சிகள் இருப்பின், அவை நீக்கப்படுகின்றன. ஒரு படத்துக்கான தணிக்கை முறைகளில் அதில் பங்கு பெறும் உறுப்பினர்களின் பெரும்பான்மை முடிவே இறுதியானது. நான் என் கடமையில் இருந்து ஒரு போதும் தவறியது இல்லை, இஸ்லாத்துக்கு எதிராக மட்டுமல்ல, எந்த மதத்துக்கும் எதிரான தவறான உள்நோக்கம் கொண்ட சித்திரிப்புகளை பலமாகவே எதிர்த்து இருக்கிறேன்'' என்கிறார்.
சேட்டிலைட் நிழல் யுத்தம்!
'விஸ்வரூபம்’ சேட்டிலைட் உரிமம் முதலில் ஒரு டி.வி-க்கு விற்கப்பட்டது. அதன்பிறகுதான், டி.டி.ஹெச்-ல் 'விஸ்வரூபம்’ வெளியாகும் என்பதை கமல் அறிவித்தார். 'இதை நீங்கள் முன்பே சொல்லி இருந்தால், நாங்கள் இன்னும் விலையைக் குறைத்துக் கேட்டு இருப்போம்’ என்று டி.வி.
தரப்பில் இருந்து சொல்லப்பட்டதாம். விலையைக் குறைக்கச் சொல்லி பேரம் நடந்து இருக்கிறது. கமல் தரப்பிலோ, 'இதைவிட அதிக விலைக்கு வாங்க வேறு சேனல் தயாராக இருக்கிறது. உங்களுக்கு விருப்பம் இல்லை என்றால் விடுங்கள்’ என்று சொன்னதோடு, வேறு சேனலுக்கும் படத்தை விற்று விட்டாராம். இந்த நடவடிக்கை அந்த டி.வி. தரப்பை கொந்தளிக்க வைத்து விட்டதாம். ''சேட்டிலைட் உரிமத்துக்கான நிழல் யுத்தமே, 'விஸ்வரூபம்’ படத்துக்கு எழுந்த தடை'' என தெலுங்கு நடிகர் பவன் கல்யாண் பகிரங்கமாகவே சொல்லி இருக்கிறார்.
'விஸ்வரூபம்’ பிரச்னை நீதிமன்றத்துக்குப் போனதும் நீதிபதி வெங்கடராமன் படத்தைப் பார்க்க முடிவு செய்தார். இதற்காக பிரசாத் ஸ்டுடியோவில் 'விஸ்வரூபம்’ ஸ்பெஷலாகத் திரையிடப்பட்டது. சம்பந்தப்பட்ட வழக்கறிஞர்களும் நீதிபதிகளுடன் படம் பார்த்தனர். வழக்கு விசாரணைக்கு வந்தபோது, அரசு அதிகாரிகளுடன் கமலைப் பேசச் சொன்னது நீதிமன்றம். அநேகமாக, இந்த இதழ் உங்கள் கைகளில் தவழும்போது நீதிமன்றத் தீர்ப்பு வந்திருக்கும்.
''நாங்கள் தேசத் துரோகிகளா?''
'விஸ்வரூபம்’ படத்துக்கு முஸ்லிம் அமைப்புகளின் எதிர்ப்பை அடுத்து கமல் வெளியிட்ட அறிக்கையில், ''நியாயமான தேசப்பற்றுமிக்க முஸ்லிம் யாரும் இந்தப் படத்தைப் பார்த்தால் பெருமைப்படுவார்கள்'' என்று சொல்லி இருக்கிறார். இதுவும் முஸ்லிம் கூட்டமைப்பினரை கொதிக்க வைத்திருக்கிறது. ''சிறு குழு எனச் சொல்லி எங்களை தேசப்பற்று இல்லாதவர்களைப்போல் சித்திரித்து இருக்கிறார். கூடங்குளம் தொடங்கி தர்மபுரி கலவரம், எல் லையில் இந்திய வீரர்கள் தலை துண்டிக்கப்பட்ட விவகாரம் வரை குரல் கொடுக்கும் நாங்கள் தேசத் துரோகிகளா?'' என கேள்வி எழுப்பும் அவர்கள், ''படத்தில் ஹெலிகாப்டரில் இருந்து அமெரிக்கப் படை தாலிபான்களை சுடும் காட்சி வரும். அதில் அப்பாவியான பெண் ஒருவர் பலியாவார். இதற்காக அமெரிக்க வீரர்கள் பரிதாபப்படுவார்கள். தாலிபான்கள் அமெரிக்காவின் தாக்குதலுக்குத் தப்பி ஓடும் காட்சியில் மனைவி, பிள்ளைகளை விட்டுவிட்டு ஓடுவார்கள். அப்போது ஒரு தாலிபான், 'குடும்பத்தினரையும் அழைத்துக்கொண்டு தப்பிச் செல்லலாம்’ என்பார். அதற்கு இன்னொரு தாலிபான், 'அமெரிக்கர்கள் பெண்களை குழந்தைகளை கொல்ல மாட்டார்கள்’ என டயலாக் பேசுவார். இப்படி படம் முழுவதும் அமெரிக்காவுக்கு வக்காலத்து வாங்குவதுபோல காட்சிகளை அமைத்து இருப்பது சந்தேகத்தை ஏற்படுத்துகிறது'' என்றனர்.
சினிமா மோதல்!
கமலுக்கு ஆதரவாக திரையுலகத்தினரும்அரசியல் கட்சியினரும் குரல் கொடுக்கின்றனர். ரஜினி, பாரதிராஜா, பார்த்திபன், அஜித் ஆகியோர் கமலுக்கு ஆதரவு தெரிவித்துள்ளனர். மார்க்சிஸ்ட் கம்யூனிஸ்ட் கட்சியும், பா.ம.க-வும் 'விஸ்வரூபம்’ படத்தின் மீதான தடையை நீக்க வேண்டும் என்று குரல் கொடுக்கின்றன. தமிழ்நாடு திரைப்பட இயக்குநர் சங்கத்தின் தலைவர் அமீர் ''யாரும், தனிப்பட்ட கருத்துக்களை வெளியிட்டு பிரச்னையை பெரிதுபடுத்த வேண்டாம். நீதிமன்றத் தீர்ப்புக்குப் பிறகு கருத்து தெரிவிக்கலாம்'' என்று சொல்லி இருப்பதை கோலிவுட் ரசிக்கவில்லை.
'கமலுக்கு ஏற்பட்ட பாதிப்புக்கு திரையுலகம் மௌனமாக இருப்பது ஏன்?’ என்று பாரதிராஜா கேள்வி எழுப்பி இருக்கிறார். இதற்கு இன்னொரு தரப்பில் இருந்து எதிர்ப்புகள் கிளம்பி இருக்கின்றன. ''ஈழத் தமிழர்களின் வலியைச் சொல்லும் 'காற்றுக் கென்ன வேலி’ படத்துக்கும் இதேபோல் தடை வந்த போது அந்தப் படத்தின் இயக்குநர் புகழேந்தி தங்கராஜும் தயாரிப்பாளர் வெள்ளையனும் மட் டுமே போராடினர். அப்போது, இந்த பாரதிராஜா எல்லாம் எங்கே போனார். மார்க்கெட் வேல்யூ உள்ள நடிகர்களுக்கு மட்டுமே குரல் கொடுப்பது அநியாயம்'' என்று குமுறுகிறது கோலிவுட்டின் ஒரு பிரிவு.
''இது கருத்துச் சுதந்திரத்துக்கு எதிரானது!''
கமல் ரசிகர்களும் கருத்து சுதந்திரத்தை ஆதரிப் பவர்களும் சொல்லும் வாதம் இதுதான்...
''நடப்பு விஷயத்தை படமாக எடுக்கும்போது தாலிபான் தீவிரவாதிகளை வேறு மதத்தின் அடையாளமாக எப்படிக் காட்ட முடியும். ஆப்கானிஸ்தானில் நடக்கும் விவகாரத்தை இங்கே இருக்கிற முஸ்லிம்கள் தங்களோடு ஏன் தொடர்பு படுத்திக் கொள்கிறார்கள்? ஆப்கானிஸ்தான் மற்றும் தாலிபான் தீவிரவாதம் பற்றி எத்தனையோ ஆங் கிலப் படங்கள் வெளியாகி இருக்கின்றன. அந்தக் காட்சிகள் எப்படி அனுமதிக்கப்பட்டதோ, அதே அடிப்படையில்தான் இந்தப் படத்துக்கும் சென்சார் சான்றிதழ் வழங்கப்பட்டு இருக்கிறது. படத்தை தடை செய்வதைவிட, அந்தப் படத்தைப் பார்க்காமல் புறக்கணிப்பது அதைவிட பெரிய தண்டனைதான். அந்த வழியில்தான் முஸ்லிம்கள் படத்தை எதிர்த்து இருக்க வேண்டுமே தவிர, தடை செய்யச் சொல்வது சரி அல்ல. பேச்சுரிமையும் எழுத்துரிமையும் ஆங்கில அரசு பறித்ததால்தான், சுதந்திரப் போராட்டமே நடந்தது. அப்படிப்பட்ட தேசத்தில் கருத்து சுதந்திரத்துக்கு எதிராக போர்க்கொடி தூக்குவது ஜனநாயகம் அல்ல'' என்கிறார்கள்.
நீதிமன்ற உத்தரவுக்குப் பிறகு நடக்கும் விஷயங்கள் என்ன அதிர்வலைகளை உண்டாக்கப்போகிறதோ?

Roshan, your expectations may be met..
விஸ்வரூபம்: மத்திய உள்துறை தமிழக சட்டம் ஒழுங்கு பற்றி கவர்னரிடம் அறிக்கை கேட்டதா?
மத்திய உள்துறை அமைச்சகம், “கமல்ஹாசனின் விஸ்வரூபம் பட ரிலீஸ் தொடர்பில் தமிழகத்தில் சட்டம் ஒழுங்கு நிலை எப்படி உள்ளது?” என தமிழக கவர்னரிடம் இருந்து அறிக்கை கோரியிருப்பதாக டில்லி அரசியல் வட்டாரங்களில் கூறப்படுகிறது.
இந்த விவகாரம் டில்லி மத்திய அரசில் ஓரளவு சலசலப்பை ஏற்படுத்தி உள்ளதாகவும் கூறப்படுகிறது.
உள்துறை அமைச்சக தொடர்பாளர் ஒருவரை தொடர்பு கொண்டபோது, இந்த விவகாரத்தில் உள்துறை அமைச்சின் சில விசாரணைகள் நடைபெறுவதாக தெரிவித்தார்.
அண்டை மாநிலங்களில் சட்டம் ஒழுங்கை அந்த மாநில அரசுகளால் கப்பாற்றிக்கொள்ள முடியும்போது, சட்டம் ஒழுங்கை ஒரு கட்டுப்பாட்டுக்குள் கொண்டுவரக்கூடிய நிலையில் தமிழக அரசு இல்லையா என்ற கோணத்தில் இந்த விவகாரம் ஆராயப்படுவதாகவும் அவர் குறிப்பிட்டார்.
கவர்னரிடம் அறிக்கை கொடுக்குமாறு உள்துறை அமைச்சகம் கோரியது என்ற செய்தி உண்மையாக இருந்தால், இது சீரியஸ் விவகாரம்!

This must be watched ! This clearly says that all issues are sorted between the Muslim groups and VR (Vairamuthu has mediated, nandri Thaliva ! ) . And the representatives of Muslim groups are agreeing to what Kamal is saying. Kamal is also raising concerns about the law and order. He says enathu Muslim kudumbathukkum, enathu Muslim rasigaRgaLukkum, enathu yaeneya rasigargalukkum entha aabathum varaamal paathkaappathu sattathin kadamai, arasin kadamai, kaaval thuraiyin kadamai. atharku ivargalum (muslim group) saatchi, ulagamae saatchi.

மத்திய உள்துறை அமைச்சகம், கமல்ஹாசனின் விஸ்வரூபம் பட ரிலீஸ் தொடர்பாக சில நகர்வுகளை மேற்கொண்டு வருவதாக, டில்லி வட்டாரத் தகவல்கள் உள்ளன என இன்று மதியம் செய்தி வெளியிட்டிருந்தோம்.
இப்போது, மத்திய உள்துறை அமைச்சர் சுசில் குமார் ஷின்டே, வெளிப்படையாகவே இது தொடர்பாக கருத்து தெரிவித்துள்ளார்.
மத்திய உள்துறை அமைச்சர் சுசில் குமார் ஷின்டே, “எமக்கு ஒரு அரசியல் சட்டம் உள்ளது. இது ஒரு சுதந்திர நாடு. கருத்துச் சுதந்திரம் உள்ளது. விஸ்வரூபம் படம் மாநில அரசால் தடை செய்யப்பட்டது குறித்து, மத்திய அரசு அதிருப்தி அடைந்துள்ளது” என்றார்.
மத்திய உள்துறை அமைச்சர் மேலும் தெரிவிக்கையில், “சில மாநில இரசுகளிடம் இதுபோன்ற பிரச்னைகள் உள்ளன. இவை தொடர்பாக நாம் கவனம் செலுத்த தொடங்கியுள்ளோம். குறிப்பிட்ட இந்த திரைப்பட தடை விஷயத்தில் என்ன நடக்கிறது என்பதை விசாரித்து வருகிறோம். சில தகவல்களை சேகரித்துள்ளோம்” என்றார்.
எமக்கு டில்லி வட்டாரங்களில் கிடைத்த தகவலின்படி, உள்துறை அமைச்சகம் இதை மிக சீரியசாக அணுக உள்ளது என்றே தெரிகிறது. தமிழக கவர்னரிடம் இருந்து அறிக்கை கிடைத்தவுடன், தமிழக அரசிடம் மத்திய அரசு விளக்கம் கேட்கும், அதன்பின் சில நடவடிக்கைகள் எடுக்கப்படும் என்று இந்த நடைமுறை தெரிந்தவர்கள் சொல்கிறார்கள்.

How nice would it be if all theatres stop screening all films and instead only screen RajKamal movies, thereby voicing their disagreement with the situation and at the same time ensuring RajKamal coffers are filled.
His fans and all others will make sure that they watch the movies as a form of support.
This is the Gandhian way of registering protest.

NOT here to teach or favor anybody. The following is just my view and opinion, if you think I am wrong, you have all the rights to criticize or present your view.
I can’t accept the fact that a community with so much harmony and synonymous to the word PEACE and SURRENDER would be in some way responsible for the downgrade of a person. SIMPLY STUPID. Before I say anything further here is a narration from the life of the Great Man ever lived on this earth Muhammad (SAW).
When Muhammad (SAW) used to pass through a street to perform his prayers, a lady used to throw waste on him, to degrade him and embarrass him. He would not mind it and just walk away. This continued for several weeks and one fine day He noticed that the woman did not come out and throw waste at him. This continued the next day also. He was curious, as to why this stopped. He enquired abt the woman, He was told that she fell ill and is bed ridden. Without a second thought, he went to the house of this woman, enquired abt her health and prayed for her well being and quick recovery.
Such was the greatness of this MAN who preached Islam to the world, and I am sure every other Muslim in this world would find any chance to follow his steps.
But the situation we see here is very sad. We are not practicing the correct way of Islam and we are not following the Teachings of Muhammad (SAW), instead we are provoked by and are following some extremist and political organization without analyzing the inside fact.
The situation Muslims today are in is just bcoz we followed some leader blindly. We did not learn the religion properly; we did not understand the teachings of Muhammad (SAW) correctly. We do not know to differentiate between Jihad and Mass killing. We have become blinded with the fact that we are a minor religion and the inferior complex that we are not getting proper attention globally.
Muslim we ourselves are responsible for what we are being portrayed today. Being a Muslim, I personally had to go through some difficult situations. My US visa was granted to me after 30 days vs to 10 days, after all background verification though my visa interview was a success. I was held up at the immigration in Newark (NY) airport twice, bcoz I was of a Muslim origin and they had to clear me off the terrorist list. I was not offended, bcoz it was their duty to safe guard their nation and they are instructed to carry out such back ground checks. Only thing I felt bad was the fact that we put ourselves in such a situation.
But we also should take into account the fact that just bcoz of some extreme organization’s hatred act, muslins all over the world are treated the same. This affects our day to day life. A person with a beard, tall, light skin, with a long wardrobe, is considered a Muslim. Nobody dares to get closer to him, and if he is in a railway station or airport, ppl's heartbeat skips; everybody would pray and just wish that he is not a terrorist. But the real fact, he would be a person of different religion.
Dignitaries like Abdul Kalam, celebrities like SRK and Kamal Hassan himself are stripped off at immigration checks. The fact being they are Muslims or have a name which sounded Muslim. Is this not double standard, Cant the world accept Muslims just as any another Human Being. Treat us equal; which can never happen. The fear has been imbibed into everybody's mind and will never change. WORLD; please understand that just being a Muslim, I cannot be a terrorist, Just bcoz I have a Muslim name, I should not go through strict security checks. I really feel ashamed for even asking you people to treat us the way you treat others when as a Human I should be treated fairly as others.
Finally; the ppl opposing the release of the movie Viswaroopam, are infact innocent Muslims. Political and extremist organizations are taking advantage of these people’s innocence to protest against the movie. People have to understand the fact that the reality is shown in movies (at least some movies). This movie portrays the life of Muslims in Afghanistan. Let’s think for a moment, if extremists in Afghanistan are Muslims or not. Yes they are and obviously the movie showed something connected to their way of life; the Islam that was built by extremists in Afghanistan. As a true Muslim, I would just ignore the world built by some extremists who are responsible for the situation of Muslims today globally. I know what my religion is and what it teaches. I try to follow the teachings of Muhammad. I do not boast myself of being an Ideal Muslim, praying 5 times a day and practice Islam at its entirety and hence I cannot preach. I need to be correct first to preach the right way of the religion.
So I can just request the people to analyze and understand what this protest is going to give us. It is just creating more hatredness, it is sending a wrong message of Muslims and Islam to the world. The man behind this making is not inclined to any political Party or any religion. He is just trying to show the unseen part of the world. If it shows anything against the religion, please note AGAINST the religion, let’s make effort to tell that it is wrong. Let’s not pop up just for the sake of showing what the real situation is because the real situation is so bad and we are already paying for it. When the movie is being showcased in theaters everywhere else apart from TN, and no report of communal disturbance so far, I am not sure how it would create disturbance in TN alone.
So let’s try to change the situation as much as possible. Live and let live.

Well, the last thing Periyarists require is some anecdotes about madha nallinakkam!
---------------------
Even today Kamal pointed out that he learnt from Periyar, but made it clear that the Muslim Blackmail (amply aided and manipulated and abetted by the Diabolical Hindutva double game plot of JJ), had forced him to even consider qutting thamizh maN.
This is unacceptable and what PJ and his group of islamic thugs did to break his heart to this level, has already altered the ground situation here.
The fight against fundamentalism of all hues have been made harder and nastier by these stupid Morons, manipulated by a cunning w*tch.
What congress sponsored mulim groups have done is coerce him to do cuts (which he was not at all accepting for - why should he? ven Malaysian, UAE govts had accepted his earlier film version) ... this is nothing short of political blackmail. THIS MUST BE RECORDED. The Muslim groups have been as devilish to Kamal as the demon queen Jaya was.
And smelling political blood Mu.Ka and his cohorts have rushed in.
I'd be very happy if Kamal rollbacks his decision to move out of TN....but im afraid this is now coming with a very great price on his artistic freedom, with politics looming large over his further moves and also in the future.

Home Minister Sushil Kumar Shinde backs Kamal Haasan and Vishwaroopam
New Delhi: The Centre today came out in support of film star Kamal Haasan, who is facing problems in releasing his mega budget film 'Vishwaroopam', saying everyone in the country enjoys the freedom of expression and artists have full liberty to continue their choice of work.
"We are a free society. There is freedom of expression. There is liberty for artists. We have a Constitution," Home Minister Sushil Kumar Shinde told reporters in Delhi.
He was reacting to a question on the actor's statement that Tamil Nadu does not want him to stay in the state and that he might leave.
Asked about the problems being faced in the release of 'Vishwaroopam', Mr Shinde said there was some problem in some states and he would look into it.
"We will see. We will enquire into what has happened," he said.
Upset over the hurdles caused by the ban on the release of 'Vishwaroopam', an emotional Mr Haasan today said Tamil Nadu does not want him to stay in the state and he might seek a "secular" place in the country or overseas.
Meanwhile, on an appeal filed by the Tamil Nadu government against the interim order of a single judge giving clearance for screening of the Tamil movie, the Madras High Court today set aside order lifting the ban.

Most people thought/think I am a Pakistani Muslim and some of the reception I got that day from passengers and the police (like searching me / checking my bags) were really depressing!
This is the kind of image people have of Muslims in the west. Instead of trying to erase such image "Our Moghul" cousins are making the situation worse!

I'm a Muslim Indian and I'm with Kamal Haasan
New Delhi: I have not yet seen Kamal Haasan's Vishwaroopam. I was waiting for its release since the promos went on air. Simply because I like Haasan films. They generally make a political statement. Today, I am all the more eager to watch the movie after the unfortunate controversy and bad publicity over the last week.
I feel sorry for Kamal Haasan. He's a great entertainer and by all accounts a good human being. He simply doesn't deserve to be in all this mess. I am angry that some fringe groups have got the film banned in the name of Muslims of India. In my name. And why should the Tamil Nadu government's insistence on banning the film gives legitimacy to these handful of people as the real voice of the Muslims of India. It's sad.
The Tamil Nadu Muslim Munnetra Kazagham (TMMK) President, M.H. Jawahirulla, who watched a special screening of Vishwaroopam, declared that the film is anti-Muslims. No, he actually said it's anti-Tamil Muslims and also anti-Indian Muslims. His logic: the one-eyed villian in the movie, modelled on Taliban chief Mullah Omar, speaks Tamil. What other language is a character in a Tamil film supposed to speak? And what's wrong with showing a terrorist who owes allegiance to Islam in a film on international terrorism?
Don't the Taliban or their comrades in arms in our neighbouring country do all sorts of crazy things in the name of Islam? Of course, the same can be true of people of any other faith. Also, why object to a Muslim agent, played by Haasan, saving USA? Is a good Muslim only supposed to save Muslims? And going by Haasan's illustrious track record, there is no reason to believe that he ventured on a "malign Muslims" project by choosing to locate the story in Afghanistan.
I would rather believe him when he says his film is not anti-Muslim, than Mr Jawahirulla.
It will be in order to mention that the TMMK is an ally of Jaya's AIADMK. But never mind. Even if, all considered, I did take the TMMK chief's word for it - who has given him the right to decide for me? It's for every one of us, the movie-goers, to see the film and decide for ourselves if it is a good film or a bad film. Well, many people hate so many films. If Vishwaroopam fails to impress the people or rubs one section of people the wrong way, so be it. But let it have its life at the box office.
And that's what Kamal Haasan is fighting for. To get his film released. To recover the money spent. To make profits for all those who put their money on him. And that's why he is today ready to cut scenes, apologise, and take it all with a smile. Because he is a weak man today. Many may argue that Haasan is giving in to the pressure, but sitting on a 95-crore film, he cannot afford to play an idealist, a crusader.
s for those who believe the film is anti-Muslim, please don't watch it. In any case, as any mullah would tell you, a true Muslim is not supposed to watch films. Films are bad; they are made by bad people for bad people. They can stay home and pray that the film tanks!
I hope the Supreme Court comes to Kamal Haasan's rescue. He certainly doesn't deserve this.
Dear Kamal Haasan, I am a Muslim Indian and I am with you.
- Mohd Asim

‘Vishwaroopam’ Ban Stays, Kamal to Move Supreme Court
CHENNAI, India
Screening of Kamal Haasan’s Vishwaroopam in Tamil Nadu has been deferred again with the Madras High Court on Wednesday setting aside a single judge’s order giving the green signal for the release even as the actor agreed to delete certain scenes considered offensive by Muslim outfits.
The actor now plans to move an appeal in the Supreme Court against the High Court order. The relief given to the actor by Justice K. Venkataraman on Tuesday night was short lived as a division bench comprising Acting Chief Justice Elipe Dharma Rao and Aruna Jagadeesan quashed it, effectively stalling its release.
The single judge had granted interim stay of operation of the ban order imposed by the State government prohibiting the film’s release across the State after protests by Muslim outfits, who claimed that it showed the community in negative light. The court order came on an appeal by the government against the interim order of the single judge.
Even as the judicial proceedings were on, Haasan said the issue had been “amicably resolved” during his talks with some Muslim leaders, after he agreed to delete “certain scenes and words” relating to the Holy Quran. “The film is not anti-Indian Muslims and it is pro-Indian Muslims. There is no difference between me and my Muslim brothers,” the actor, who spent nearly Rs. 100 crore on the multilingual spy thriller, said.
Upset over the hurdles caused by the ban on the release of the movie, Haasan, in an emotional outburst, said Tamil Nadu does not want him to stay in the state and he might seek a “secular” place in the country or overseas. During the hearing on Wednesday, Advocate-General A. Navaneethakrishnan said the single judge had passed the order without taking into account the fact that the petition (of Kamal Haasan) was not maintainable in law.
The AG also said the judge has not considered the ‘important aspect’ that the order passed under Sec. 144 cannot be assailed by the petitioner as it was done after elaborate and detailed consideration for maintaining public order, preserving public peace, public safety and communal harmony.

How come Kamal Hassan is nobody’s responsibility?
The silence of the talk-show jingoists and online hyper-patriots on Kamal Hassan is intriguing. Television anchors seeking the resignation of chief ministers at the drop of a hat have been surprisingly quiet ever since the controversy broke out. There have been no questions on the degree of culpability of the state government and the chief minister heading it and none on the role of communal groups stalling the release of the movie Vishwaroopam.
Perhaps, because the subject is not Narendra Modi or Hindutva or politics. An anguished actor contemplating to quit the country after being hounded from several quarters is, after all, a small matter, at least smaller than a minister committing a faux pas during a public meeting. It is interesting too that the film fraternity in Tamil Nadu and elsewhere has largely been muted in its reaction to the developments.
How come Kamal Hassan is nobody’s responsibility? Are cultural icons in the country nobody’s responsibility?
The sense of hurt in Kamal Hassan’s utterances today was telling. Here’s a man with enormous contribution to Tamil cinema in particular and Indian cinema in general over the last 50 years pleading for justice and fairness, which he always felt were his natural due as a citizen of the country and as a towering cultural figure. The part where he says he might shift base to another country may be an emotional outburst of a man feeling wronged, but even the fact that the thought crossed his mind should shame all of us.
Of course, most of us don’t care. When celebrated painter MF Husain left the country after being hounded out by the right wingers, hardly anybody gave a damn. There was politics over him and some familiar noise of disapproval but finally he was abandoned to his fate by the political class and others. When he died abroad pining for a last barefeet walk in Mumbai, the city he loved, the sense of collective guilt was conspicuous by its absence.
Nobody was ashamed then, there’s no reason why someone would feel sorry for Kamal Hassan. Cultural icons, in effect, are second rate citizens in the country, exposed to the whims and fancies of any group with ideologically blinkered views. Their imposing intellect might win them respect, but it never fetches them friends who matter. Would the actor be in a similar predicament if had powerful political friends? Obviously not.
His plight reveals one disturbing trend in the country. Too much of censorship has crept into our lives. It is being imposed if not by the ruling entities wielding power at the top then by private groups associating themselves with identities. There are vicious efforts to curtail intellectual freedom everywhere. By extension, it also means curtailing individual freedom. The controversy involving Ashis Nandy’s comment on corruption is a case in point.
We are creating a world that is increasingly being impatient with nuances and context. The media in hunt for eyeballs and sensationalism have virtually abandoned their role as the intellectual bridge between the thought leaders and the man on the street. The matter has been aggravated by courts involving themselves in every issue. In case of Vishwaroopam, the court had no business interfering when the Censor Board had cleared the matter. As this piece is being written the Madras High Court has stayed the release of the movie for some more days. Consider the loss to the producer of the more than Rs 90 crore movie.
The state was not playing its role by playing it safe. Had it been tougher on the protesters in the beginning itself, maybe the film would be in theatres by now and Kamal Hassan a smiling man. The film fraternity which wields considerable clout in Tamil Nadu has also decided to wait and watch. Clearly, there are failures on multiple fronts.
The problem nobody realises is, if it is Kamal Hassan’s movie today, it could be some other movie tomorrow. If protesters of all kinds are allowed to run loose, there won’t be any end to it.
For now, let’s feel sorry for Kamal Hassan.

New Delhi: Central Board of Film Certification (CBFC) chairperson Leela Samson is in state of shock after the ban on Kamal Haasan's film "Vishwaroopam", and says that the act is "an infringement on freedom of expression".
"This is hounding of an artist, a man who is an icon of Tamil Nadu. We are sensitive to issues. The group objecting to 'Vishwaroopam' have the freedom not to view it. We will object to the language used by the lawyer representing the Tamil Nadu government against the censor board," Samson told CNN-IBN news channel.
The Madras High Court Tuesday ruled in favour of "Vishwaroopam" and revoked the ban by the state government. It, however, said the administrative step was to be taken by the government. However, in the latest development, a two-judge bench of the high court upheld and re-imposed the ban on the film Wednesday.
"It is absolutely unacceptable. We have certified hundreds and thousands of films but only with 'Vishwaroopam', people find, it has not been done with due diligence? This is an infringement on freedom of expression," Samson added.
The mega-budget film was due to release Jan 25, but the Tamil Nadu government banned the film following fears of law and order situation. The ban was further extended to Kerala and Andhra Pradesh.

Vishwaroopam row: Why Kamal Haasan is being targeted
The ongoing row over Vishwaroopam is not simply due to some Muslims of Tamil Nadu alleging that the film shows the community in a bad light. At the root of the controversy lies a political angle that is much more intriguing. Kamal Haasan's speech at a recent book launch and his decision to release the film on the Direct-to-Home platform seem to have proved detrimental to the actor. Incidentally, the satellite rights of Vishwaroopam were first bagged by Jaya TV. A subsequent dispute between the channel and Rajkamal Films meant that the rights were given to Vijay TV. Kamal Haasan had by then entered into an understanding with Airtel DTH and Vishwaroopam was supposed to premiere at 9.30 p.m on Jan 10, 2013. However, objections raised by the Tamil Nadu Exhibitors Association and the Tamil Nadu Theatre Owners Association forced him to announce on Jan 14 that the film will be released on the DTH platform only on Feb 2. Prior to these developments, the actor who has so far stayed away from politics made a statement with significant connotations on Dec 30, 2012. That day, a book about Finance Minister P Chidambaram was released at a function in Chennai. After DMK patriarch M Karunanidhi handed over the first copy of the book to Chidambaram's mother Lakshmi Achi, the Kollywood icon remarked that Tamils are very capable of leading the nation and pointed to the finance minister. Kamal Haasan probably did not realise that by praising Chidambaram, he had unwittingly incurred Tamil Nadu Chief Minister J Jayalalithaa's displeasure. According to political observers, the AIADMK supremo was irked by the actor's words as she harbours ambitions of becoming the prime minister one day. This apparently contributed to the actor's present woes.
The alacrity with which the state government accepted the plea of pro-Muslim outfits to ban Vishwaroopam suggests that there is definitely a subtext. Last year, another film faced similar protests. Nevertheless, the Vijay-starrer 'Thuppakki' enjoyed a successful run even though a few organisations in Tamil Nadu railed against its unfavourable depiction of Muslims. Despite both megastar Rajinikanth and Karunanidhi urging members of the minority community to let people peacefully watch Vishwaroopam, the outfits which are opposed to its screening have refused to budge from their stand. The DMK chief is avowedly secular, he would not have backed Kamal Haasan if the latter is in the wrong. The actor believes he is being unfairly targeted. Considering the aforementioned aspects, one cannot help agreeing with him. Fanatics once forced renowned painter Maqbool Fida Husain to settle abroad. It remains to be seen whether Kamal Haasan would feel compelled to leave not only Tamil Nadu but also the country.

And though it is quite clear that has ballooned into a case of political vendetta, the religious angle of the issue cannot be ignored...The rot that set in 'Thuppakki' has spread as a cancer in 'Viswaroopam'...This has a set a terrible precedent...of religious groups able to determine the content of a movie...Adhibagavan, we hear seems to be next target by another set of lunatics...

KUALA LUMPUR: The nation’s Indian leaders have come together to show their support to Tamil Nadu’s legendary actor Kamal Haasan and his suspended movie ‘Viswaroopam’ by urging the Home Ministry here to lift a ban on the movie.
The call came after the controversial movie, which was banned in Tamil Nadu, was given the green light to be screened to the public by the Chennai High Court on Wednesday.
The Film Censorship Board of Malaysia (Finas) had initially approved 'Viswaroopam' for public viewing and Lotus Fivestar AV started screening the movie on January 24.
A suspension, however, came in place a day after the controversial movie was released here following a directive from the Home Ministry.
MIC information chief and Hulu Selangor MP P. Kamalanathan said the Home Ministry should reconsider the suspension on the movie.
“The Chennai High Court has lifted the ban and we should also follow suit. The movie was suspended here because of complaints by some quarters who claim the movie is anti-Muslim," said Kamalanathan.
“Don’t be too sensitive. Don’t base anything on hearsay. The movie was scrutinised by Finas. The board is very good in their work. If it is anti-religious they would have been able to spot it before allowing it to be screened.
“I hope the Home Ministry will release the movie and allow the viewers to be the judge,” Kamalanathan added.
MIC Youth chief T. Mohan said one has to look at a movie as merely a movie and not go overboard by believing it.
“It is just a movie. Why get all worked up about it? The censorship board has already approved it. I don’t see a problem in it.
“I urge the Home Ministry to release the movie in theaters,” Mohan added.
DAP vice-chairman M. Kulasegaran also wants the Home Ministry to review its suspension on the movie.
“The Indian court has lifted the ban. In the same spirit, we should follow suit," Kulasegaran said.
“As far as I know, Kamal Haasan never made any anti-religious movie. Movies should never be taken personally."
On January 23, the Tamil Nadu government, headed by Chief Minister J. Jayalalitha, banned 'Vishwaroopam' from screening in the state for 15 days when 25 Muslim organisations objected the movie.
A day later, the Chennai High Court restricted the film’s release till Jan 28.
On Tuesday, the High Court lifted the ban after a day-long hearing.
However, the well-known actor received another blow when the Tamil Nadu government today filed an appeal against the verdict.
In an emotional press conference in Chennai, Kamal Haasan did not rule out the possibility of leaving Tamil Nadu.
“MF Husain had done it (left the state), I may have to do it. But I will always remain an Indian," Kamal Haasan said.
The movie has been banned in Singapore too on grounds of it being ‘insensitive to Muslims.’
ttempts to get comments from the Home Ministry was unsuccessful.
Meanwhile, those who have watched the movie had this to say:
M. Surenthiran, 29, project engineer
"The movie depicts the crisis that is ongoing in Afganistan and America. They are just screening what is happening over there. If indeed films like this should not be allowed, then films like the Da Vinci Code should also not be allowed because it portrays Christianity.”
K. Suresh Kumar, 29, IT support assistant
“The movie is a historic documentary marvel. It shows the conflict between Afganistan and America. I think one should watch the movie with an open mind. The ban on the movie should be lifted so that everybody can watch it. If not for the movie, at least for the beautiful actress."
S. Vishalene, 24, student
"The movie to me does not potray the terrorist as good or bad. It potrays them as people who do not know any better. You can't tell a story about Al-Qaeda without featuring terrorists can you?"

As i said Kamal's Greek Tragedy has been written thru his passion for Mu.Karunanithi for his erstwhile artistich niche.
Now Kamal would be forced to play along the political tunes of the congress-dmk genocide abettors.

Geno, All cinemas are safe place only! Even there was one violence event mentioned few days before, which was said to be due to Clash for sceening this film but it turned out to be an accident! And Bangalore is very very safe and no need to worry to bring ur family! Vision Cinemas on Double Road is just walk away from Shanti Nagar Bus terminus which is the Last Stop for Out station buses from TN! Slightly nearer is another superb theater Urvashi. It has 70mm gigantic screen like Devi, 5K superb high resolution projector and 7.1 HiFi sound system which is almost Auro3D minus 2 speakers! Originally Posted by geno

All KH fans should find an effective way to channelize all our energy into supporting Kamal at this stage - emotionally, morally and financially. Not in a disorganized way but in a more structured way that sends a message to the powers that be.
Kamal and his brother should find a way to provide this platform which can be used by his fans for this purpose.

When the satellite TV rights to Jaya TV got cancelled on Jan 10th, Kamal in his press meet said, "This is my movie. I will decide when to release it, others should not (or not others)".
I strongly feel it "really" hurt JJ's ego (besides the other couple of reasons) and she is now showing Kamal that it is she who will decide when (date) and how (with/without cuts) Vishwaroopam will release in TN. that's why even though Kamal agreed for cuts in front of the media this afternoon, she got it banned and deferred to Feb 6 (after one week). As simple as that. There is no other reason why it had to be after one week
That is the sole reason, the Special Bench that heard the TN Govt in half-a-day's notice, has now deferred the discussions by a week (!) to Feb 6th (and will go beyond!). Simple delaying tactics to financially ruin Kamal.

Do not seek twist or racy screenplay. watch out for details, making, performance, some jaw dropping stunts and for mainly the lifestyle of jihadis.
Vishwaroopam is an action poem .. can be enjoyed genuinely if you are not seeking some cheap twists throughout the movie.

From: isaifan on 30th January 2013 07:49 PM [Full View]
SS,
Exactly. All fans must make Vishwaroopam a BB and Kamal should be told this by fans' (representative) that they will NOT let him down and will stand by him all the way to SC.
Once it goes to NI, JJ will not get support from media. I am sure SC will come down heavily on TN Govt, if not, it will echo loudly that India is not a secular country anymore(and Kamal may go out).
With Kamal heading this and Rajini and Salman Khan voicing their support openly now, we can say atleast half of India will watch it hehe!!

I believe that Kamal PUT in a lot of thought into this.. (SPOILER ALERT - Don't read further if you have not seen the movie)
Unnai Pol Oruvan's common man Kamal... gave an impression of being a Muslim (not explicit though ...but an Insha Allah conversation..and his beard gave that impression)...
I thought that the implied message was that of a good patriotic Muslim ...fighting Jihadi Muslims...
In Vishwaroopam...this fight between a good, pious and patriotic Indian Muslim...fighting the Taliban is more explicitly portrayed.
In fact, I believe that Kamal's message is that..Not all 'orthodox and pious' Muslims are terrorists..that there are far many more good Muslims...who lay down their lives for the country...which is why there is specific scene inserted ...where both the suicide bomber and the hero pray--simultaneously , the former for evil and destruction...and the latter for good and protection...So actually Kamal was trying to help the community...by trying to break a bad stereotype..
Any normal thinking movie goer would understand Kamal's message here....Which is why at almost all places around the world and India, people had no objections...or even wondered what all the fuss is about.Unfortunately , a few groups in TN...did not have the subtlety to understand this simple but beautiful message...
Or perhaps they were asked not to understand..
If the movie had really been taken with an intent to hurt Muslims...I think, there would have been a much bigger storm by now... and even Kamal's life would have been in danger....Remember the cartoons of Prohpet Mohamad and the movie ' The innocence of Muslims ?' ...Both these works of 'art' ...were done DELIBERATELY to offend the Muslims... and the whole Muslim world rose as one to condemn it...Kamal may believe in freedom of expression...but he is smart enough to know his limits...

I am not trying to defend JJ, she used the opposition from the muslim community to her own interest, she is the biggest culprit here. But the problem begins at the central government. If the congress continues its stupid minority appeasement for votes, we will soon be ruled by fundamentalists.
Why the helll is India considered to be the beacon of secularism while its clearly not. Secularism is not everyone can follow whatever law they want, everyone should follow the same law.
The precedent was set when the Uniform Civil Code of India was violated and its showing its ugly head now.
Sadly I cannot vote for the only party (BJP) which speaks about establishing Uniform Civil Code, this and my hatred for congress cannot be the only reason to vote for them. Dammit give me a better reason.

The issue is not about the movie's contents. It is about one woman's ego trip using govt. machinery.
Instead of focussing on the fringe groups, the focus should be on the adavadi activities of the govt. A govt. must not act in this manner. Such whimsical misuse of govt machinery for personal vendatta should be strongly condemned by one and all. If this is happening to someone like Kamal, imagine what must be going on for the average man who goes against a politician.
Of course, all this will be forgotten in a few months ...

I am sorry to say this but its time for people like him a good human being to enter politics and do some thing to correct this plight ,i know he cannot bring a massive change but any thing would be better then these set of politicians present in TN atm. If people like him do not stand up and do some thing about it then we can't complain at what we are getting atm.

Captain - has some backbone!
Kamal should go all out to release and make the movie a hit in Telugu and Hindi. In all this activity, hope he doesn't ignore that huge market.

the silence from the TFI is also a harbinger for something else - my biggest fear: when and if gumbals break into cinema halls, whats the guarantee that they wont attack Kamal himself directly ?? and still the TFI will keep quiet.
all the pseudo-secular voices keeping quiet now will either continue to do so, or, will make insane / inane remarks and shed crocodile tears if something like that happens.

My co-worker (a Pawan Kalyan fan) saw Vishwaroopam (Telugu) in Hyderabad today and said there was absolutely nothing that would offend anybody/community. He and many of my co-workers are shocked how one lady Jaya/JJ (CM of Taliban Nadu) can dictate terms in TN.
(After having seen many masala films here) He was really impressed with the movie and said the direction/taking/technicalities were of Hollywood standards He also said the BGM was very impressive.
Thanks to the rest of India, I am very sure Vishwaroopam will be a Big Blockbuster , with or without TN. TN earnings will be a bonus..and really hope Kamal will become double wealthy

Just to know, did i really mean anywhere that MuKa is a bad guy or doing bad politics etc?!? If you ask me, its really a smart and great move to pull one member in that 24 Org Group and make him come towards Kamal. Jawahirullah & Co who are under amma's camp are in no way the reps of whole muslims. So isn't it better to have someone from the same group come and agree for some changes kamal makes?!

Also, next to Amma, its ONLY Ayya whom the Islam leaders are not and cannot oppose. THey are trashing almost every other leaders and those who supported kamal.

Kamal should stay in Bombay and work on his Hindi release. Law will decide the fate of the movie in Tamil Nadu. He should not be dragged into the "final refuge of scoundrels". He is an extremely talented individual. He will come out of this. But i am afraid he will be changed man. His views on secular India, Muslims and the film fraternity will be very different though he might not admit it.

imho, Indian audiences in general are either NOT mature enough to understand/think through issues deeply enough, or, simply they dont accept cinema as just another mode of entertainment, or, simply take things way too personally.

Siddharth: Vishwaroopam must be edited beyond recognition if it wants to be screened in Tamil Nadu. This is the death knell for democracy, secularism and cinema. I see more conflict between Hindus and Muslims in Tamil Nadu because of the bizarre behaviour of the government than the film.
The ban on Vishwaroopam is regressive. It's a back-to-the-dark-ages blow by the Tamil Nadu government. How do we make a change?
My deepest condolences to Kamal Haasan. His service to our cinema and to shaping many creative destinies needed gratitude, not betrayal. Sad. In cinema as in other fields, your punishment is directly proportionate to how much you give.Godspeed, Kamal Sir.

Well....Kamal's ruined financially here...Hopefully the movie runs well in the North...Heard it's his widest release over there....Dont see anything happening even after the 6th of Feb...The impasse will continue. But one thing's sure...JJ's role in this has been completely exposed....

I think blaming her alone not going to solve the root issues. Dravidian parties have been sowing seeds of terrorism so far and we are reaping bad things. Our law and order are being controlled by politicians for self needs. Judicial system takes its own time to respond. Its vicious circle and no one can breath the honesty freely.

One thing you need to understand. Only in TN it is sold for high price. If tamil fans watching this film in karnataka and kerala and andhra pradesh will only benefit distributors because kamal has sold them for fixed price and they are going to make tremendous profit. This is case with Hindi and foreign countries also. All other guys enjoying because of the popularity of the movie and helpless tamil fans. Originally Posted by Lat Sar

but once I became aware/read abt how these fringe groups (2000 people - OMG!) attacked the Chennai US consulate - http://articles.timesofindia.indiati...zhagam-chennai, the reality begin to sink in - that is when I began having my doubts / fears and they have turned out to be true.
If these guys could get away with something like attacking a US consulate in Chennai - when was the last time, I have heard ppl attacking consulates in Chennai (or for that matter the rest of India) ?? - targeting a movie and its maker is nothing more than childs play.
notwithstanding the fact that JJ had a hand in this, it would be dangerously naive to even think these savages would have allowed the screening to happen peacefully, had it been released.
if ppl still deny that this is a problem and keep looking the other way - wait for a few years and see how TN becomes.
JJ may or may not go - but the after effects of this ban will be felt for years to come.
now, am seriously beginning to wonder / think if these groups DO HAVE LINKS with al-qaeda et al, after all ? and if the DVD/VCD piracy money is indeed being sent to AQ (one of the points PJ mentioned in his talk, as being anti-muslim) ? and if coimbatore / madurai sleeper cells do indeed have links with such groups ?
by repeatedly/steadfastky insisting on the ban, they have made themselves the principal suspects.

As he rightly said, it is the cheap TN Govt/politics that is playing with people's sentiments now. It is as if underworld need not exist only in Mumbai. Originally Posted by irir123

As a former Censor Board Chief I strongly CONDEMN Banning of Kamal Hassan’s #Vishwaroopam. We as People of India are Shamelessly SPINELESS.
We ‘The People’ are responsible for our SORRY State. We are used to Slavery & taking nonsense from all. Mughals, Britishers & now our own.
Kamal Hassan travelled with me to LA and kept talking passionately about exciting times in cinema in India. This is what we do to him.
My outbursts on certain issues r part of my convictions. It is important to stick ur neck out & speak what you really feel. It makes me, ME.

in all this mess, Kamal agreeing to the cuts on the film as demanded by the opposing groups - is something Kamal's harshest long-term opponents are likely to make use of, in his future films - whenever he tries to depict anyone from any community, that community is going to ask him to edit those scenes - thats the price not only Kamal, but everyone in the IFI will have to pay henceforth.
I cannot imagine anyone doing this to a Scorcese or a Tarantino - the thuggery so evident in this episode will stay on forever and can only get worser

Ramakrishna - Unfortunately we need to decide between JJ - who just deals in silly politics vs MK - Who is selling whole India in the interest of his family, so JJ is not a bad choice. Kamal too would accept that. Kamal should have just given the movie right to Jaya TV. JJ want to just show that the additional money he got by giving rights to Vijay TV isnt worth it for Kamal.

Only 2 places where Kuraan is referred. First scene is not a good cut, but wont affect the story line. Second scene is where he says "terrorist dont read kuraan" and by cutting the scene, he is just saying that terrorist read kuraan or muslims are terrorist. Looks like thats how TN muslims want to identify themselves. Basic issue is the quality of education among muslims. That will continue to affect TN and muslim community itself.

Did you notice that most (if not all) theatres that were atttacked were the ones that were ready to release the movie when DTH issue was raised.
So was the DTH issue (Kamal vs TNTOA) started by the same set of people who are against the release of the movie now? We know whom.

Many fans of Kamal Haasan literally went the distance to watch Vishwaroopam in Kerala, Karnataka and Andhra Pradesh over the weekend.
Bangalore was the most preferred destination given the five-hour drive. “We spent about Rs. 3,000 per person because we ended up staying overnight,” says Javeeth Ahmed, who works as a sales executive in a multi-national company. “But it was worth it. Four of us on a road trip to Bangalore, listening to Kamal Haasan songs all the way. We are all die-hard fans and generally catch the first day, first show. It’s a story we will tell our grandchildren.”
Did he find the ban warranted or anything objectionable? “Kamal has taken Indian cinema to the next level technically and story-wise as well. It was like watching a Hollywood film. It shows what happens with extremists. It shows terrorists who kill in the name of religion,” says Javeeth.
Sreedhar Pillai, trade analyst and film critic, had booked first day, first show tickets at Sathyam to watch the film with Auro sound. “On Thursday night, I realised the film was not coming out in Chennai. So I booked the first flight to Kochi. I was scared the film would be banned even before release. I went straight to Ernakulam and caught the film first day, first show.”
“There’s nothing objectionable in the film. This film is set in Afghanistan and New York. Of course, Kamal has taken the liberty to show the villain speak in Tamil. But overall, it was a great experience. I will never forget it. I always watch his films first day, first show.”
Rajthilak, a lawyer, who drove down with his friends to Bangalore, observes the irony: “He wanted us to watch the movie at home on DTH. And we ended up going to Bangalore. On going to Bangalore, we found there was a ban in some of the theatres. We found one on the outskirts of Bangalore, where the film was playing. There was nothing against Muslims in the film. They went on to increase the number of shows from three to five screens after the ban was lifted.”

I think the past events have taken a turn which probably no one anticipated. But a govt elected by the people, bahaving totally against the wishes of a lot of people is stupidity.
Kamal's late night speech to the fans at his home (most of which was inaudible) shows how careful he is - instructs them to go home and not to engage in any violence. He has really shown everyone his true nature. If it releases in the north smoothly and does well, the whole nation will laugh at TN, JJ and the High court.

Well said Kumar. Good news is that it is releasing very big in Hindi including multiplexes. Whether KH would be realising the monetary benefits of the success in Hindi is a big question though. Don’t really know the deal with the distributors. But it'll be a real shame in the way govt handled/handles this. Unless it is released in all territories / languages, it’ll be a big financial loss for KH. Originally Posted by kumarsr

'' 'விஸ்வரூபம்’ பட வெளியீடு தொடர்பாக கமலுக்கு...''''வேண்டாம்யா... வேண்டாம்! ஆத்தாத்துப் போயிருக்கேன். நெஞ்சு கொதிக்குது. கமல் ஒரு மகா கலைஞன்யா. எங்கே அவனுக்காகக் குரல் கொடுத்தா, நம்மளுக்கு எதுவும் சிக்கல் வந்துருமோனு பயந்து நடுங்கி ஒதுங்கிக் கிடக்குது சினிமா உலகம். எங்கேயோ வடக்குல இருக்குற அமீர் கான் குரல் கொடுக்குறான். ஏன்... அந்த உணர்வு இங்கே இருக்குற 'படைப்பாளி’களுக்கு வரலை?
ஏன்யா... உங்க அத்தனை பேரோட உரிமைக்கும் சேர்த்துத்தானே ஒத்தை மனுஷனா கமல்கெடந்து போராடிக்கிட்டு இருக்கான். அறுபது வருஷத்துக்கு முன்னாடியே கடவுள்
சிலையைப் பார்த்து 'இது கல்... பேசாது..!’னு கலைஞர் வசனத்தை 'பராசக்தி’யில் அனுமதிச்சு ரசிச்ச மண்ணுய்யா இது.
நான் எந்த அடையாளத்துக்குள்ளும் போக விரும்பலை. ஆனா, கமல்ங்கிற கலைஞனுக்காக பாரதிராஜா என்கிற கலைஞன் குரல் கொடுக்கிறான். அவ்வளவுதான்!''
''ஆனால், 'கலைக்கு எல்லை இல்லை’ என்று சொல்லி சிறுபான்மையினர் உணர்வுகள் புண்பட அனுமதிக்க முடியுமா?''
''உண்மை என்னன்னு ஊர் உலகம் முழுசா புரிஞ்சுக்காமலே, 'புண்படுத்திட்டாங்க’னு சொல்றது நியாயமா? 'அலைகள் ஓய்வதில்லை’ படத்தின்
க்ளைமாக்ஸில் பூணூலையும் சிலுவையையும் கார்த்திக், ராதா அறுத்து எறிவாங்க. அந்தக் காட்சி இந்து, கிறிஸ்துவர்களை எந்த வகையிலாவது புண்படுத்தியதா?
'வேதம் புதிது’ படத்தில் சத்யராஜ் கிட்ட ஒரு சின்னப் பையன், 'நான் கரையேறிட்டேன். நீங்க இன்னும் ஏறலையா?’னு கேட்பான். அந்தக் காட்சியைப்
பார்த்துச் சம்பந்தப்பட்ட சாதியினர் புண்பட்டாங்களா? ஒரே வார்த்தை - வெவ்வேறு இடங்களில், வெவ்வேறு களங்களில் வெவ்வேறு அர்த்தம் கொடுக்கும். அது
எந்த இடத்தில், எந்தச் சூழலில் ஒலிக்குதுனு பார்க்கணும் இல்லையா?சினிமா ஒரு அபூர்வ ஊடகம். அதில் படைப்பின் நேர்த்தியைப் பாராட்டுங்க.
அதை விட்டுட்டு, 'இது நொள்ளை... அது நொட்டை’னு வம்படியா குத்தம் சொல்லாதீங்க.''
''இது தொடர்பா கமல்ஹாசன்கிட்ட நீங்க எதுவும் பேசுனீங்களா? இந்த விவகாரத்தில் எதுவும் அரசியல் பின்னணி இருக்கா?''
''அவன்கிட்ட பேசலை. அவன் மனநிலை இப்போ எப்படி இருக்கும்னு என்னால புரிஞ்சுக்க முடியுது. ஆனா, இந்த விஷயத்தை உன்னிப்பா கவனிக்கிறப்போ எனக்கு
ஒண்ணு மட்டும் புரியுது. பாக்யராஜ் கட்சி ஆரம்பிச்சப்போ, டி.ராஜேந்தர் கட்சி ஆரம்பிச்சப்போ, விஜயகாந்த் கட்சி ஆரம்பிச்சப்போ எல்லாம் நான்தான்
முதல் ஆளா அவங்களைத் திட்டித் தீர்த்திருக்கேன். இப்போ யோசிச்சுப் பார்த்தா, அவங்க மூணு பேரும் ஏதோ ஒரு விஷயத்தில் பலமா காயம்பட்டு, மனசு
நொந்த பிறகே, அரசியலுக்கு வந்திருக்காங்க. இப்போ அந்த அரசியல் பாதையில் கமலையும் இறக்கிவிட்றாதீங்க.
கமல் மத்தவங்க மாதிரி இல்லை. எந்த விஷயத்தில் இறங்கினாலும் அதுக்கான முழுத் தகுதியையும் திறமையையும் வளர்த்துக்கிட்டுதான் இறங்குவான். அப்புறம் அவன் அரசியலை உங்க யாராலும் தாங்க முடியாது.''

New Delhi: In the backdrop of the controversy surrounding Kamal Haasan's 'Vishwaroopam', the Information and Broadcasting Minister Manish Tewari has indicated that the government may consider amending the law. He tweeted on Thursday that it's time the Cinematograph Act is revisited to ensure that state governments cannot question a certificate that is once given by the censor board.
He tweeted that this is necessary as each state would otherwise be its own censor. "Time Cinematograph Act revisited to ensure implementational integrity certification decisions Otherwise each state would be it's own censor 9sic)," Tewari tweeted.
Government sources have said that the Information and Broadcasting Ministry will set up a committee to study the amendments. The government wants to set up an appelate body where state governments can take appeals.

The Union government is committed to ensuring freedom of expression and liberty for artists, Home Minister Sushilkumar Shinde said on Wednesday amid the controversy over Kamal Haasan’s film Vishwaroopam.
Asked about the Tamil Nadu government’s ban on the film, Mr. Shinde literally supported the actor, saying: “We are a free society. There is freedom of expression. There is liberty for artists. We have a Constitution.”
All should respect the Constitution. Artists should have full liberty to continue their choice of work. The Centre would enquire into why there were problems in the release of the film in Tamil Nadu and other States, he said.

COIMBATORE: Disappointment, anger and helplessness loomed over Kamal fans after the state government reinstated its tough stand against the actor's latest movie, Vishwaroopam, preventing its screening across the state for yet another day.
Fans started crowding single screen theatres in western Tamil Nadu, following late Tuesday's single judge ruling in favour of the movie, hoping to catch a viewing of the much-awaited picture on Wednesday. However, their hopes were dashed when theatre owners expressed their inability to go ahead with the screening, for want of clearance from the district administration.
Frustrated fans spilled on to the streets, conducting minor road rokos in Coimbatore and Erode, leading to the arrest of five people in the city. The movie was screened for over 30 minutes at a movie hall in Erode in the morning but was terminated after the district administration intervened and started screening a 1998 Hollywood horror flick Deep Rising, instead of the Kamal film.
"We have to get permission from the respective district collectorates as the movie halls fall under their control. Despite the court ruling, the final clearance has to come from the district administration. As of now a 15 day ban has been imposed on the movie from January 25 and the screening will depend on further orders," said M G Rathinasamy, president, Theatre Owners Association (Coimbatore, Erode, Tirupur and Nilgiris region).
Out of the 400 prints of Vishwaroopam slated to be screened across Tamil Nadu, around 60 were to be screened in theatres across Coimbatore, Erode, Nilgiris and Tirupur. At least 32 prints were to be released in Salem, Dharmapuri and Krishnagiri districts. Fans started assembling outside the single screen theatres in these districts as early as 7am, and by 10am there was a huge gathering outside the theatre.
"I have already seen the movie in Kerala but I want to watch it here in Coimbatore. I want to replay Kamal sir's film 'Unnaipol Oruvan', and convey its story to people, especially to those who are opposed to the release of Viswaroopam," said Abu Tahir, a house painter from Ukkadam waiting outside Shanthi Theatre in the city.
Fans outside Central theatre resorted to a minor road roko after a group of right wing outfit leaders came into the hall premises and spoke in favour of Kamal Haasan and his movie. Five persons were arrested under section 143 for unlawful assembly. "We arrested five people for staging road roko outside Central Theatre this morning. All of them are fans who do not belong to any political outfit," said Muthumalai, inspector, law and order, RS Puram police station.
Mild tension prevailed near Shanthi theatre on State Bank Road in the morning as fans started demanding the immediate screening of the movie since they have already purchased tickets. The tickets were distributed ahead of January 25 when the movie was slated for release after its initial postponement from Pongal.
"We are not screening Vishwaroopam and are going ahead with Samar and Alex Pandian at the moment. We have to get permission from the authorities first," reiterated DN Ramasamy, manager, Shanthi theatre, Coimbatore.
Meanwhile one theatre in Erode city, VSP theatres which had already started screening the movie, had to terminate the screening after it was brought to the notice of the government authorities. President of theatre owners association, Rathinasamy, confirmed it was an isolated incident, where the movie got screened without prior permission. Police personnel were also deployed outside theatres in Salem, Dharmapuri and Krishnagiri.
"Kamal sir has the backing of all his fans. It is really unfortunate that he is being targeted and not allowed to release his movie here in Tamil Nadu," said R Thangavelu, President (in-charge), All India Kamal Haasan Fans Welfare Association.

New Delhi, Jan 30: Information and Broadcasting Minister Manish Tewari on Wednesday said states should implement the decisions of the censor board regarding screening of films but refrained from commenting on Kamal Haasan's controversial movie Vishwaroopam, saying the matter was in court. Haasan's much-talked about movie was banned by the Tamil Nadu government on charges that it projected a minority community in negative light. "Since the high court has once again taken the matter within its purview, it would be inappropriate to comment on it. We would allow the high court to take cognisance of the matter holistically and come to whatever conclusion it considers appropriate. Because it's been a tradition that we do not comment on matters which are sub-judice," Tewari said here. "I think the time has come to re-examine as to how states can be made to implement decisions which fall exclusively in the purview of the central government under the constitutional scheme of things. In terms of entry 60 of list one, it is the central government which exercises power through Central Board of Film Certification which does certify as to which film is appropriate for exhibition and which is not," he added. He said once the film certification board arrives at a particular conclusion, it is incumbent upon state governments to implement that decision and added the Supreme Court in the Prakash Jha matter had taken this view. "But now since the division bench of the high court has taken cognisance of the matter again, it would be better to refrain from making any proactive or any specific statement on Vishwaroopam," Tewari said.

EXCLUSIVE : MUSLIM ORGANISATIONS' REQUEST TO KAMAL
Finally, Muslim organizations have made a request to Kamal on Vishwaroopam and if the request is obliged then they are okay with the release of Vishwaroopam. They have asked Kamal to add a video clip at the begining and end of the film in which he should appear and speak that "all the characters in the film are imaginary and we have also portrayed the sufferings of Afghan people in war".
The organization said "we took this decision because we feel that the problem is between Kamal and the government and we do not want to be involved in this".
They also added that Muslim supporters are turning into haters and hence they are taking a decision to compromise with Kamal and would like to mention that the people of thier organizations are not involved in violence which took place yesterday.
They are also deeply moved with Kamal's statement of leaving the country.

Repeat post : A group of worried Venkat Prahbu fans have cautioned him to change the title of his movie from 'Biriyaani' to 'Puliyodharai'. However, some experts have cautioned that this too is not safe enough ...and have recommended 'Saadam'...But since this too close to 'Saddam' and may cause even more problems...the director may have to settle with 'Soru'...

Those fellows are just bulti adichufying as they know it has not turned out the way they wanted. Anyway whether it is one group or two groups am happy to see the Muslim groups having disagreements among them. Heard that two Muslim groups were arguing with each other yesterday on a show regarding the movie. Already PJ has contributed immensely to make these politically backed religious gundas look pathetic and this split even it if it is one group, is now making them look like jokers.

Some Strong statements in this interview.... He has decided to fight ... Hmmmmmmm
Kamal Haasan is at the centre of controversy with objections being raised about his latest film Vishwaroop (the Tamil version is titled Vishwaroopam). With Muslim organisations protesting about the depiction of their community in the film, the Tamil Nadu government stepped in to ban the film. This has come as a huge setback for the filmmaker who had meanwhile resolved the situation with the Muslim organisations. “They (The Tamil Nadu government) won't rest easy until they finish off my film and destroy me financially. I am willing to face financial ruination, but I won’t grovel and buckle under pressure. I never have. I never will. They can break me financially, but they can't break my spirit,” says Kamal Haasan.
http://images.mid-day.com/2013/jan/Vishvaroopam4b.jpg
Action man: Kamal Haasan
Q: Why would the Tamil Nadu government victimise you? You are an iconic actor who has done the state and country proud.
They do not think so. They feel I have been making too many controversial films and I need to be tamed and brought to my knees. So today I am being labelled anti-Islamic because the terrorists in my film owe their allegiance to Al Qaeda. They forget I made a film on Hindu terrorism — Hey Ram. They also forget that I was the first actor who stood up and condemned the demolition of the Babri Masjid. I am a friend of the Muslim community. In fact because of my name, I am often mistaken for one at international airports.
Q: Why do you become anti-Islamic by showing Islamic terrorism in Vishwaroop? After all so many good Hindi films like Subhash Ghai’s Black & White and Rensil D’Silva’s Kurbaan have shown the identity crisis of the Indian Muslim and his link to terrorism.
That means zilch to these people. The interesting thing is, not one terrorist in my film is an Indian. All the terror activity in the film is located in Afghanistan. Some Muslim brethren objected to references to Al Qaeda. I removed those.
Q: Why object to Al Qaeda being linked to terror activities?
Are we romancing rationality here? I have tried to reason with Ms Jayalalitha. After the court’s verdict I tried to meet her and explain my point of view. But she refused to meet me arguing that the matter is subjudice and that I should meet the Home Minister. Now, the Home Minister would have the same argument about the matter of being subjudice. I had met him and apprised him of my film and the situation before the court hearing. And there’s no way the powers-that-be would not know that I met the Home Minister. Not a leaf stirs in the state without her knowledge.
Q: This issue has taken on connotations beyond that of a film release…
The world is watching. I think the issue has gone far beyond my film. I am ready to face the consequences. I am going to take the print of the Tamil version of Vishwaroop and burn it in front of the relevant government office. They are aborting my baby. I might as well give it a proper cremation. I won’t bow down to fascism. This is a conspiracy to finish me off financially. To kill me. To make sure I am never able to make another film. And that is as good as death for me. Like I said, it is an irrational attack. But I’ve to fight it rationally because we artistes are rational people even if others are not.
Q: You realise that your fight-to-the-finish to premiere Vishwaroop via DTH (Direct To Home) and now your fight against fundamentalist forces and the TN Govt for the film's release, has made you a cause celebre in Bollywood?
Has it? About time (laughs). It should be something that should affect all of us. Some people have spoken up against the protests. I am touched. But these voices of protest don’t matter. They (the TN Govt) are going to continue targeting the film until I am finished. It’s about killing my baby even before it’s born. It’s a creative abortion.
http://images.mid-day.com/2013/jan/Vishwaroopam_1.jpg
Hairy tales: Kamal Haasan in a still from Vishwaroop
Q: Why would they target you? Is it because you took up the DTH issue?
It goes much deeper than that and we won’t talk about it. My phone is tapped.
Q: That sounds ominous…Can they finish you off?
They can finish me off. I am a very arrogant man. I have just returned from a very successful world premiere of my film in Los Angeles. From what I’ve been told it’s probably the biggest average grosser among all foreign films released in the U.S.
Q: When was the Hindi version of Vishwaroop going to be released?
We were looking at February 1. We had even planned a Mumbai premiere on Thursday. But I don’t know if I will be allowed to release it. I have a track record of women spoiling my premiere plans.
Q: Which woman do you hold responsible for spoiling your premiere plans this time?
I am not saying anything.
Q: The Tamil Nadu Govt banned your film even after the censor board cleared it?
Clearly then, the censor board is redundant at least in Tamil Nadu. They should shut their office in Tamil Nadu.
Q: The film has been banned in Malaysia where you have a huge fan following?
Yes, my Muslim brethren here in India have spoken to their Muslim brethren in Malaysia.
Q: How did the DTH issue that actually started off the protests against Vishwaroop get entangled with Islamic protests against your film?
Though I don’t share this opinion, some people whose judgement I trust believe that the DTH premiere of my film would totally invade the pirates’ market.
Q: You also have North Indian multiplex theatres standing against your DTH premiere for Vishwaroop?
Interestingly, by opposing my DTH proposal the multiplex chains are actually one with the pirates.
Q: So the plot thickens?
I hope my cop friends are listening in. I am sure police force is above religion. Or is the colour khaki a religion by itself?
Q: I see your sense of humour is intact.
I am enjoying all of this, just like many people are enjoying my downfall.
Q: That is not funny.
I am not joking. I am serious. I can tell you this even if my phone is tapped: all my property, everything is pledged. If I don’t obtain and provide financial relief before February 1, I lose all that I own.
Q: Did you mortgage your house to fund your dreams? That is old-fashioned.
Yes! It may be old-fashioned. But that’s what I've always done. Why old-fashioned? It’s the Satyajit Ray passion. He mortgaged everything to make Pather Panchali. I grew up hearing stories of how Ray saab put all his wife’s jewels into making Pather Panchali. I wanted to go many steps further. Okay, now I can be called a Ray Ban (laughs heartily).
Q: Are you joking?
This is no ….ing joke. I am serious. I lose everything if the film doesn’t release. I will be a pauper. I believe that no individual should own property. That it should be for the people. Whatever property I have came to me through cinema and I gave it back to cinema. That’s why I pumped it back into the cinema. If I don’t pay them by February 1, my financiers take all my property. And my financiers are not ones to yield to my plight. I might get arrested. But that’s okay. They arrested Gandhiji too.
Q: How do you know your phone is tapped?
I’ve been there before. I am a ‘tap’ dancer.
Q: How much love do you feel for cinema at the moment?
Oh, a lot. I implore every movie maker to give back all they earn to cinema.
Q: Why hasn’t the entire fraternity come forward to support you?
They don’t even know me! I do have some people from Bollywood by my side.
Q: Vishwaroop is your nemesis?
No. Vishwaroop is my child. Politics is my nemesis. They want to abort my child. I am supposed to talk to Christians, Muslims and politicians to save my child. Why would I address my creativity to fascism?
Q: Given your financial crisis, how would you make your next film?
I will collect funds through a public company. I will get like minded people to fund my dreams. But I won’t grovel. I won’t surrender to fascism.

Before caring and talking about world terrorism, violence etc.. isn't it important for him to be courteous about others feelings?
May be he should start respecting everybody irrespective of their cast,religion and habits!

Now , various muslim organisations and federations and some others - they had submited an memorandum for the government to ban the movie.Over ruling their protest,is not possible . These muslims organisdations has proposed demonstrations and these could turn violent. When Intelligence reports was received about these , the only option was to provide support for all 524 theaters . the total sanction of police force is 1lak, 13,718 . Of these , the vaccancies are 21K . So the actual strength is 91 K

That leaves a balanceof 9K . Assuming viswaroopam was released, the available Police force was 9K - is this adequate . The strength required is 20 /shift , 60 per day . Now 524*60 = 31K. In addition, there has to be patrolling . And in sensitive areas, atleast more will be required. And there has to be striking force required.So all in all, if viswaroopam will be released, the total man power required is 56K

Allowing violence and then trying to restore peace . particularly when you have limited force . What is the alternative ? We rely on intelligence force - if there is likely to be something, what wil be teh government will do ? TO take preventive actions . If a politican who causes racus enters the district , we prohibit him . Maintaining a law and order is not allowing violence and curbing it . the sensible way is to prevent violent occurence , esp when u know it is going to happen.

JJ : the muslim organisations send a draft to Chieft secretary . They wanted to see the movie > Giovernment asked kamal hassan to show the movie . Had he done that earlier , this trouble could have been avoided . But he didnt screen that day . Teh delay of release is due to DTH . At last moment , Kamal hassan called the representatives and showed the movie in his office and that was urging from government . On 22nd , the muslim leaders decided to have a ban. they met the home secretary on 23rd and at that time the muslim leaders had announced a serious of agitations and they said they will hold demontsrtations . Govt weighed the pros and cons . If we did allow , violence would occur , police had to restort to lathi charges and now media would say we have targeted muslim leaders and they would have jumped to other side

JJ : At that time , Kamal hassan was not prepared to take in a single cut . At that time , to preserve law and order , we had a ban /144. We choose to use only Section 144 , if Kamal hassan so wanted , could have approached us , he choose to approach the court and immediately file a case. Im not responsible for this - it has been banned in singalpore, UAE, malayasia etc .. There were several violent incidents in karnataka , mysore etc How can this be attributed to me ?

As far as DMK is concerned , he is politics guy . Yesterday there were many violent incidents . There was a chain of incidents after the ban lifting . It was only when the first bench imposed the ban again , the law & order came ok . Muslim leaders had announced a serious of propoganda . We are concerned with law and order . e have no reason to curbing KH's freedom of speech. if they are ready to sit together , we can release the movie

It is stupid to say about law and order issue.. how come it is getting screened in Kerela and other parts of states and country..
even if it is intelligence information.. it can be easily tackled.. by explaining to kamal and fringe groups..very early... inspite they leave this issue for weeks and wishing it to grow... .it clearly shows they want to make this issue big..and gain what they want..
As she decided to face the central poll individually.. she expects muslim community to totally support her..
If they hadnt made this issue.. the movie would be come just another kamal movie.. and wouldn't have talked much about community..
now these politicians are making common people to bring the community issue into forefront.. She is expecting some good to happen for her.. not bothering about common people.. She will loose respect what ever she gains..
it is soo cheap on TN govt.. when they have so many other top priority issues to solve..
And yea.. these politicians.. doesnt want any issues to be closed... otherwise they dont have ways to make money.. and thats what they are for..

She said her government decided to ban it for 15 days so that tempers could cool down and “both sides could have a discussion and come to an agreement”.
This is absolutely valid. But if this has been conveyed to both parties before the imposition of ban as the reason, this negotiation could have happened long back and could have been avoided long ago...

She pointed out that the movie had also been banned in neighbouring states as well as Qatar, the United Arab Emirates, Sri Lanka, Malaysia and Singapore. “Was I responsible for all that?”
All these countries I guess have a significant percentage of muslim population.. I could say all these countries banned because it started with TN first!!

Very funny! With all due respect to SRK for supporting he is also mentioning that his company Red Chillies have done visual effects work!!! The vfx was designed by a Tamilian called Madhu Sudhanan who had recieved National Award in Aalavandhaan and done some amazing Hollywood films like Lord Of The Rings, Spider-Man 3, Gulliver's Travels, In Time and the upcoming The Host in Hollywood! Kamal always prefer him for his talent and skills and Vishwaroopam Technicial brilliance is because of him! By the way SRK's company did 12 shots out of 1400+ shots in the film! Many Chennai studios who have worked in the film should get more credits!!!

True! I respect until he says he would like to support Vishwaroopam but why in that message he should talk about what his company did? That's irrelevant! That too a studio which did least number of shots and more over in conjunction with an American studio which did the work?!!! Guess he was not briefed well by his own staff as how many shots that they did and what actually they did!!! Well it's releasing in Hindi and he knows there will be a big opening! Rather than promoting for his own company please support for Kamal sir for what he is like how Salman Khan did! We still love you SRK for the support for Kamal sir!!! Thank you!!!

Yes they did under the supervision of Mr.Madhu Sudhanan!

Many of the guys in visual effects industry adore him a lot for his work! But now the focus is on Vishwaroopam and Kamal sir! Lets concentrate on that and I want every true Indian film artiste to support without any personal agenda in it! As I said we greatly appreciate for SRK to come forward and support Kamal sir but don't bring in business that too when his studio done the least number of shots! That is not important now!!!

OMG!...this is getting really ridiculous...
SP , who claim to be the champions of the Muslims in the state...and have come to power due to their support, are not letting go of an opportunity...here...
Seems like VR is becoming a tool for a lot of people..Hope Kamal also benefits from it...

சற்றுமுன் செய்தியாளர்களிடம் பேசிய தமிழக முதல்வர் ஜெயலலிதா, “இஸ்லாமிய அமைப்புகளால் வன்முறை வெடிக்கலாம் என்ற உளவுத்துறை எச்சரிக்கை கிடைத்த காரணத்தால் மட்டுமே விஸ்வரூபம் படத்திற்கு தடை விதிக்கப்பட்டதாக விளக்கம் அளித்துள்ளார். நேற்று ஒரு தினம், ஒரு காட்சி காண்பிக்கப்பட தொடங்கியபோதே, தமிழகத்தின் பல பகுதிகளில் ஏற்பட்ட வன்முறைச் சம்பவங்களை அவர் சுட்டிக்காட்டினார்.
விஸ்வரூபம் படத்துக்கு எதிர்ப்பு தெரிவிக்க நேற்று நடத்தப்பட்ட வன்முறைச் சம்பவங்களில், பெற்றோல் வெடிகுண்டுகள் கண்டுபிடிக்கப்பட்டன, படத்தின் பேனர்கள் தீக்கிரையாக்கப்பட்டன, தியேட்டர்கள்மீது கல்லெறி சம்பவங்கள் நடைபெற்றன என்பதையும் அவர் சுட்டிக்காட்டினார்.
விஸ்வரூபம் படம் தமிழகத்தில் 524 திரையரங்குகளில் திரையிடப்பட இருந்தது. இப்படத்திற்கு 24 இஸ்லாமிய கூட்டமைப்புகள் எதிர்ப்பு தெரிவித்திருந்தன. இந்த நிலையில், படம் வெளியிடப்பட்டால், வன்முறை வெடிக்கலாம் என்று உளவுத் துறை அறிக்கை கொடுத்திருந்தது எனவும் அவர் கூறியுள்ளார்.
இஸ்லாமிய அமைப்புகளின் எதிர்ப்பை பொருட்படுத்தாமல் படத்தை திரையிட அனுமதித்தால் அப்படம் திரையிடப்படும் 524 திரையரங்குகளிலும் 56,446 காவலர்கள் தேவை. அந்த அளவுக்கு போதுமான காவலர்கள் படை இல்லை. சட்டம் ஒழுங்கை பாதுகாக்கும் கடமை அரசுக்கு உண்டு. அதனால்தான், படத்துக்கு தடை விதிக்கப்பட்டது எனவும் அவர் குறிப்பிட்டார்.
இந்தப் பேச்சு, பல சர்ச்சைகளை ஏற்படுத்தப் போகிறது.
1) 524 திரையரங்குகளுக்கும் பாதுகாப்பு கொடுக்கும் அளவுக்கு, 56,446 காவலர்கள் இருந்தால், இந்தப் படத்துக்கு தடை விதித்திருக்க வேண்டிய அவசியம் தமிழக அரசுக்கு ஏற்பட்டிருக்காது என்றும், முதல்வர் பேசியதை எடுத்துக் கொள்ளலாம்.
அப்படியானால் மத்திய அரசு, நாம் மத்திய ரிசர்வ் போலீஸ் பாதுகாப்பு தருகிறோம், படத்தை திரையிடுங்கள் என்றால் என்னாகும்?
2) “விஸ்வரூபம் படத்திற்கு 24 இஸ்லாமிய கூட்டமைப்புகள் எதிர்ப்பு தெரிவித்திருந்தன. இந்த நிலையில், படம் வெளியிடப்பட்டால், வன்முறை வெடிக்கலாம் என உளவுத்துறை அறிக்கை கொடுத்தது” என்றால் என்ன அர்த்தம்? இஸ்லாமிய அமைப்புகள் வன்முறையில் ஈடுபடும் அமைப்புகள் என்கிறாரா? இதை அந்த அமைப்புகள் எதிர்க்க மாட்டார்களா?
3) இந்தப் படத்தை தாமும் பார்க்கவில்லை என்கிறார். தமது அதிகாரிகளும் பார்த்ததில்லை என்கிறார். அந்த வகையில் படத்தில் என்ன கருத்துக்கள் உள்ளன என அரசுக்கு தெரியாது. படத்தை தடை செய்யும்படி, ‘வன்முறை செய்யக்கூடிய’ அமைப்புகள் கடிதம் கொடுத்ததால் தடை செய்தோம் என்பது எவ்வளவு பெரிய ஆபத்து?
“படத்தை பார்த்தோம். அதில் ஒரு சமூகத்தை பாதிக்கும் கருத்துக்கள் உள்ளன என அரசு கருதுகிறது. எனவே நியாயமான கோரிக்கைக்கு அரசு ஆதரவு கொடுக்கிறது” என்று சொல்வது வேறு விஷயம். படத்தையே பார்க்காமல் தடை என்றால், நாளைக்கே மணிரத்னத்தின் கடல் படத்துக்கு எதிராக 500 தியேட்டர்களுக்கு முன்னால் மீனவர்கள் திரளக்கூடும் என்று உளவுத்துறை சொன்னால், தடை உண்டா?
4) இஸ்லாமிய அமைப்புகளுக்கு படத்தை முன்கூட்டியே போட்டு காட்டியிருந்தால், பிரச்னை வந்திருக்காது என்றும் முதல்வர் கூறியிருக்கிறார். ஆதிபகவன் படத்தை ரிலீஸ் பண்ணுவதற்கு முன் இந்து அமைப்புகளுக்கு போட்டு காட்ட வேண்டும் என இருவர் மனு கொடுத்துள்ளனர். போட்டு காட்ட வேண்டுமா? தேவையில்லையா?
முதல்வரின் பேச்சினால், இதுபோல பல சர்ச்சைகள் ஏற்பட சாத்தியம் உள்ளது.

Checked the postings here from CM's presser, real time.
Major issue which shows her in a bad light : As per her,Intelligence reports said the film's release will disturb peace.Then ,apart from temp putting the release on hold,is it not the government's duty to take the presumed mischief monger's into preventive custody.Why was it not done?
Another statement which was not in order : She reeled out statistics on man power to show protection to all theatres could not be given.
This is an open invitation for goons,dons,extemists,anti social elements to forment trouble.After all this state does not have the man power to control violence.
Other than that,all other justification was what you expect a government to give.
For me the very fact that she met the media to give her version is a climb down.

Also she says a person nearing 60 pledging properties to make a movie is a conscious decision.Yes,she is right.
If the film had released and flopped,then Kamal would have probably done the needful quitely.

At the end of the day, people will continue voting for JJ. Even some hubbers also saying that she is lesser of the evils and so they will vote for her. Do whatever you want.. we will still vote for you! That's what emboldens her and why most of the TFI folks are afraid to speak up.
Instead of voting again and again for the same culprits, why not vote for someone else? Even an independent? That will make these politicians behave a bit more responsibly.
Say what you may about the US, once a politician does something legally wrong or misuses govt machinery, no one will even be willing to be seen with him/her. No second, third, fourth,..., chances!
Pretty soon, we will see TFI (including Kamal) organizing a massive "nanRi" function for JJ. Anyone willing to bet against it?

India is a strangely weird (oxymoronish?!) country thats forcing itself to continually take the dangerous path.
While VR might after all be a movie, this whole nonsense of 'pecchu vaarthai' with muslim groups is beyond ridiculous.
1999 Khandahar hijacking resulted in a 'pecchu vaarthai' deal handing over some of the most dangerous men to have been convicted.
its happening over and over again - whether politicians are playing a huge part in it or not is a different story.
but this is a culture that has hit a new high with VR.
it can only scale further bigger heights.
instead of all of this nonsense repeating ad nauseam, it might be a better idea to have a law that says only hindus can make movies involving hindu characters/ cast / technicians etc; muslims make films abt muslims involving a muslim cast/crew etc..
given the nefarious way in which Kamal was referred to by one of the protesting groups as a periyarist brahmin who cannot be trusted, Kamal no matter what he does to claim himself to be a periyarist, a rationalist, an atheist, will always be looked upon through a brahminical 'prism'.
and Kamal can do his best to distance himself from stereotypes, write scripts giving himself a meaty role as a rational thinking atheist - he can even play the red-headed spaghetti monster (made famous by Richard Dawkins in many of his speeches) - but for all that, he will still be the brahminical red headed spaghetti monster - there is no getting away from that.
unless and until Kamal coverts to Islam, there is no way any of his hard-hitting future films that might possibly involve an intellectual dialog abt Islam (which is something I am fairly confident he is capable of - not just Islam, but socio-religious cultural idioms in general), will be accepted or even viewed without suspicion.
why I said that ? our people - particularly the Muslim community is way too hard-line extreme in its perceptions of its own religious beliefs, it just do not seem to have the ability to think deep enough.
in such a scenario, noone can successfully make claims of being neutral, secular, not even under the pretext of being an artist - thats the bitter truth thats constantly emerging.
we just do NOT seem to be mature enough to be secular and rational.

obsession with religion, culture, clan identity or the perceptions of all of these - are deeply embedded in our psyche, over millions of years of repeated hammering - its unrealistic on the part of Kamal to expect ppl to accept the questions he dares to ask without taking offence - we take offence to anything and everything - the prevalent political culture is only aggravating the same.
so Kamal can keep fighting a lonely battle - but his will become such a lonely voice at some point - his already was in this case wasnt it ? - that he either will have to live in an island of creativity, or keep making compromises - as a creative thinking artiste, he is not gonna make the cut here - especially, challenging dogmas.

Jaya explains 'Vishwaroopam' ban, Kamal thanks her
Chennai/Mumbai: A day before the Hindi version of "Vishwaroopam" is set for release, actor-producer Kamal Haasan Thursday thanked Tamil Nadu Chief Minister J. Jayalalithaa after she explained at length why she imposed a 15-day ban on the espionage thriller.
The versatile actor told the media that although he was angry when he threatened Wednesday to quit India, he would certainly leave the country if similar protests enveloped his movies.
Kamal Haasan's brother Chandra Haasan as well as Tamil filmmaker Ameer Sultan meanwhile met Muslim leaders in Chennai, a day after Kamal Haasan promised to cut parts of the Tamil-Telugu film that critics say portray the community in poor light.
There was a ray of hope for the Rs.95 crore film's release in Tamil Nadu after Jayalalithaa made it clear that "Vishwaroopam" was banned only due to fears of violent protests and not because of any grudge against the actor-producer Kamal Haasan.
"I have no personal grudge, no personal interest in banning the movie," the actor-turned-chief minister said, adding she knew nothing of the movie until it became controversial.
Reeling out statistics, she said it would have been impossible to provide police protection to all 524 cinemas in Tamil Nadu where the multilingual film was to be released Jan 25 after Muslims announced a wave of protests.
She said her government could have banned the movie completely but it banned it only for 15 days so that tempers could cool down and both Kamal Haasan and Muslim groups could reach an agreement.
She pointed out that it had also been also banned in Qatar, the United Arab Emirates, Sri Lanka, Malaysia and Singapore. "Was I responsible for all that?"
She said Muslim leaders had told her that they were ready to accept the film now as Kamal Haasan had agreed to delete some portions they had found objectionable on religious grounds.
"If (Muslim) leaders and Kamal Haasan work out an amicable agreement, the government will do everything possible to facilitate that ... and the deck will be cleared for screening the movie."
Kamal Haasan has written, produced and directed the movie and also features in the title role in "Vishwaroopam", which revolves around an Al Qaeda plot and an Indian couple in the US.
But the chief minister found fault with Kamal Haasan for not showing the movie early on to the Muslim critics.
In Mumbai, a visibly grateful Kamal Haasan thanked Jayalalithaa for her intervention and insisted there were no "bad Muslims" in his film that has already been released in the US and Canada.
It is also being screened in Andhra Pradesh, Karnataka and Kerala, where it was taken off the theatres earlier. The Hindi version, "Vishwaroop", will hit the cinemas Friday.
"I have not shown bad Muslims in my film. The good Muslims in my film are Indian Muslims and the bad ones are terrorists," Kamal Haasan said.
He added: "In anger and in an emotional outburst I had said I will leave the country. But if this happens again, I will seriously leave.
"I was angry (when I spoke earlier) and I am still angry," he added.
He thanked his fans, the media and the film industry for supporting him, and said the delay in the movie's release had caused a loss of Rs.30-60 crore.
In Uttar Pradesh, however, the ruling Samajwadi Party said it won't let "Vishwaroop" to release in the state until it ceased to be controversial.
The row over "Vishwaroopam" took a political turn after Jayalalithaa threatened to sue DMK leader M. Karunanidhi for alleging that she had once written against Kamal Haasan to then chief minister M.G. Ramachandran.
In response, Karunanidhi said he stood by his charge and would present the "evidence" in court.

She might be cunning but ppl of Tamil Nadu are no fools ,she would have lost a considerable amount of votes. Further going by her history,she will not keep quite with Kamal even after the release bec her ego is too big to let a setback go unpunished but doing so she will further go down and she would see results in LS election.

///விஸ்வரூபம் படம் தொடர்பாக ஊடகங்களில் நிலவிவரும் பல்வேறு கருத்துக்களுக்கு விடையளிக்குமாறு இருந்தது முதல்வர் ஜெயலலிதாவின் இன்றைய பத்திரிக்கையாளர் சந்திப்பு. ஆங்கிலத்தில் அமைந்த அந்த உரையின் தமிழாக்கம் பின்வருகின்றது.
"விஸ்வரூபம் படத்தை கண்ட முஸ்லிம் கூட்டமைப்பை சேர்ந்தவர்கள் இது தொடர்பான மனுவை தலைமை செயலரிடம் கொடுத்தார்கள். கூட்டமைப்பு சார்பாகவும், கூட்டமைப்பில் இல்லாத சில அமைப்புகள் சார்பாகவும், படம் வெளிவந்தால் போராட்டம் நடத்தப்படும் என்று அறிவிக்கப்பட்டிருந்தது. உளவுத்துறையின் அறிக்கையையும் இதையே பிரதிபலித்தது. இந்நிலையில், மாநிலத்தில் சட்டம் ஒழுங்கை நிலைநாட்டவேண்டியது என் கடமையாகின்றது.
படம் வெளிவர வேண்டும் தியேட்டர்களுக்கு பாதுகாப்பு கொடுக்க வேண்டியது அரசாங்கத்தின் கடமை என்று வாதாடப்படுகின்றது. ஆனால் உண்மை நிலையை அறிந்துக்கொண்டால் இதுப்போன்ற கருத்துக்களுக்கு இடம் இருக்காது.
தமிழகத்தில் மட்டும் சுமார் 524 தியேட்டர்களில் விஸ்வரூபம் வெளியாகவிருந்தது. தமிழகத்தில் உள்ள மொத்த போலீசாரின் எண்ணிக்கை (காலியிடங்களை தவிர்த்து) 91807 ஆகும். இதில் பல்வேறு பணிகளுக்கும் போக மீதமுள்ள போலீசாரின் எண்ணிக்கை 9226 மட்டுமே. மூன்று ஷிப்ட்களில் தியேட்டர்களுக்கு பாதுகாப்பு கொடுக்க வேண்டுமென்றால் அதற்கு 56,440 போலீசார் தேவைப்படுவர். இது சாத்தியப்படாத சூழ்நிலையாகும்.
அதுமட்டுமல்லாமல், அரசாங்கத்தின் கடமை என்பது, மாநிலத்தில் அசம்பாவிதம் ஏற்பட்ட பிறகு தடுப்பது அல்ல. சூழ்நிலைகளின் தன்மைகளை புரிந்துக்கொண்டு பாதுகாப்பு நடவடிக்கைகளை மேற்கொள்வதே ஆகும்.
தணிக்கை செய்யப்பட்ட ஒரு படத்தை தடை செய்வதற்கு மாநில அரசாங்கத்திற்கு உரிமை இல்லை என்று கூறப்படுவதில் உண்மை இல்லை. தமிழ்நாடு சினிமா சட்டம் 1955-ல், 7-ஆம் பிரிவில் இதற்கான அனுமதி உண்டு. டேம் 999 படம் இந்த சட்டபிரிவை பயன்படுத்தியே தடை செய்யப்பட்டது. விஸ்வரூபம் விவகாரத்தில் இந்த பிரிவை கூட தமிழக அரசாங்கம் பயன்படுத்தவில்லை என்பதை புரிந்துக்கொள்ள வேண்டும். பிரச்சனையின் வீரியத்தை குறைக்க, சற்றே ஆறப்போட 144 தடையுத்தரவு மட்டுமே கொண்டுவரப்பட்டது.
கமல் மீது எனக்கு எந்தவிதமான அதிருப்தியும் இல்லை. இந்த விவகாரத்தில் எனக்கு தனிப்பட்ட ஆதாயம் இருப்பதாக பல்வேறு ஊடகங்களும் கருத்து தெரிவித்திருக்கின்றன. அதில் அவர்கள் குறிப்பிடுவது, ஜெயா டிவியில் விஸ்வரூபம் திரைப்படத்தை குறைந்த விலைக்கு கேட்டதாகவும், கமல் கொடுக்க மறுத்ததால் தமிழக அரசு இப்படியாக செயல்படுவதாகவும் விமர்சிக்கப்படுகின்றது. ஜெயா டிவி அதிமுகவை ஆதரிக்கின்றது. இதை தவிர்த்து எனக்கோ, என் கட்சிக்கோ ஜெயா தொலைக்காட்சியுடன் தொடர்பில்லை. இப்படியான குற்றச்சாட்டுகள் ஆதாரமற்றவை. இது தொடர்பாக பொய் குற்றச்சாட்டு சுமத்தியவர்கள் மீது சட்டபூர்வமான நடவடிக்கை எடுக்கப்படும்.
மேலும் இன்னொரு விமர்சனத்தையும் கூறுகின்றார்கள். வெள்ளை வேட்டி கட்டிய தமிழர் பிரதமராக வர வேண்டும் என்று கமல் கூறியதற்காக நான் இப்படி செயல்படுகின்றேன் என்கின்றார்கள். தன்னுடைய அரசியல் ரீதியான கருத்தை கூற கமலுக்கு உரிமை உண்டு. இதில் எனக்கு ஏன் கோபம் வரவேண்டும்? முப்பது வருடங்களாக அரசியலில் இருக்கின்றேன். கமல் கூறியதால் மட்டும் ஒருவர் பிரதமராக வந்துவிட முடியாது என்பதை நான் அறியமாட்டேனா? அப்படி தனி மனித விரோதம் தான் காரணம் என்றால் கருணாநிதியின் குடும்பத்தினர் எடுக்கும் படங்களுக்கு நான் பல தடங்கல்களை கொடுத்திருக்க வேண்டுமே? அவர்களுடைய படங்கள் வெளியாகிக்கொண்டு தானே இருக்கின்றன?
1980-களில், கமலை பற்றி எம்.ஜி.ஆரிடம் கடிதம் வழியாக நான் புகார் செய்ததாக கருணாநிதி அபாண்டமான குற்றச்சாட்டை முன்வைத்திருக்கின்றார். 1980-களில் நாம் அதிமுக-வின் எம்.பியாவும், கொள்கைப்பரப்பு செயலாளராகவும் இருந்தேன். தினமும் எம்.ஜி.ஆரை சந்திப்பேன். தினமும் சந்திக்கும் போது கடிதம் எழுத வேண்டிய அவசியம் ஏன் வந்தது?
தன்னுடைய சொத்துக்களை விற்று படம் எடுத்ததாக கமல் கூறுகின்றார். அவர் அறுபது வயதை நெருங்கிக்கொண்டிருக்கின்றார். விவரம் அறியாதவரல்ல அவர். இப்படியான ரிஸ்க்கை எடுப்பதால் வரக்கூடிய பிரச்சனைகள் குறித்து அவர் அறிந்திருக்க வேண்டும். இதற்கு இந்த அரசாங்கம் எந்த விதத்திலும் பொறுப்பாக முடியாது.
மேலும் நடந்துள்ள பிரச்சனைகளுக்கு கமலே பொறுப்பு. படம் வெளியாவதற்கு பல நாட்களுக்கு முன்பே, படத்தை தங்களுக்கு திரையிட்டுகாட்ட வேண்டும் என்று கூட்டமைப்பினர் கோரிக்கை விடுத்த போது, அரசின் உதவியுடன் கமலின் இல்லத்தில் படம் பார்க்க ஏற்பாடு செய்யப்பட்டிருந்தது. அப்போதே படம் திரையிடப்பட்டிருந்தால் இந்த பிரச்சனை முன்னமே முடிந்திருக்கும். ஆனால் கமலோ, படத்தின் தேதி தள்ளிபோவதாக கூறி கூட்டமைப்பினர் படம் பார்ப்பதை தள்ளிவைத்து விட்டார். படம் வெளியாகும் நேரம் இந்த படத்தை கூட்டமைப்பினர் பார்த்ததால் பிரச்சனை வெகுவாக வளர்ந்து விட்டது.
படம் வெளியான பின்பும் கூட கமல் அரசை அணுகி கூட்டமைப்பினருடன் பேச்சுவார்த்தைக்கு சம்மத்தித்து இருந்தால் இந்த விவகாரம் விரைவாக முடிக்கப்பட்டிருக்கலாம். ஆனால் கமலோ, படத்தில் மாற்றங்கள் செய்வதை ஏற்றுக்கொள்ளாமல் நீதிமன்றத்திற்கு சென்றதால் விவகாரம் உச்சத்திற்கு சென்றுவிட்டது.
இஸ்லாமிய கூட்டமைப்பின் ஒவ்வொரு அமைப்பிலும் லட்சக்கணக்கான உறுப்பினர்கள் உள்ளனர். தமிழ்நாடு தவ்ஹீத் ஜமாஅத் இயக்கத்தில் மட்டுமே 7.5 லட்சம் உறுப்பினர்கள் உண்டு. இப்படியான சமுதாய குரலை சாதாரணமாக எடுத்துக்கொள்ள முடியாது.
தமிழக அரசு மட்டுமே தடை செய்தது போல விமர்சனங்கள் வருவது தவறு. சிங்கப்பூர், இலங்கை, மலேசியா, அமீரகம், கத்தார் போன்ற நாடுகளிலும், கர்நாடகம் புதுச்சேரி ஆந்திரா போன்ற மாநிலங்களிலும் தடை செய்யப்பட்டது கவனிக்கப்பட வேண்டியது. அங்கெல்லாம் என்னுடைய அரசா நடக்கின்றது?
சில இஸ்லாமிய அமைப்புகள் நேற்று கமலை சந்தித்ததாகவும், படத்தில் சர்ச்சைக்குரிய காட்சிகளை நீக்க கமல் ஒப்புக்கொண்டதாகவும் எனக்கு செய்திகள் வருகின்றன. இஸ்லாமிய தலைவர்களும், கமலும் கலந்து பேசி சமரசத்திற்கு முன்வர வேண்டும். இதற்கு தமிழக அரசு தேவையான உதவிகளை செய்யும். இஸ்லாமிய தலைவர்களின் ஒப்புதலுக்கு பிறகு படம் வெளியாகும்."
இவ்வாறு முதல்வரின் பேட்டி அமைந்திருந்தது. ///

Generally Arnob does not leave the show with a different viewe point from what he initially carried.
But Nammavar rocked. I could really feel that Arnob's body language changed.. initially he was skpetic and wanted to find fault with Kamal, but by the time the debate got over he felt some sort of admiration towards Kamal...
Those who watch 'Times Now' regularly may agree to this observation....

Infact Kamal could have waited (or can wait) for one more day to talk to Muslim groups.
If it clicks big time in Hindi, the financial aspect would have gone out of his mind.
Going by the advance booking (bookmyshow), it is better than what I expected. Tomorrow by noon we will know the results in Hindi.

Just now one of my friends from gulf called me up.
He says he feels so ashamed because of some extremists' behavior and is concerned that he will be treated as intolerant and stupid just because of some stupid actions from a few idiots.
Felt so bad....

...............................................
By Subhash K Jha
Starring Kamal Haasan, Pooja Kumar, Rahul Bose
Directed by Kamal Haasan
Rating: * * * *
First things first. Kamal Haasan’s enormously controversial film doesn’t hurt Muslim sentiments. In fact it doesn’t hurt the sentiments of any section of the people except those party-poopers who think having a ball at the movies went out of style with Sholay and Chachi 420.
Leave aside its sobering take on global warfare, Vishwaroop is one helluva entertainer. If you’ve forgotten what edge-of-the-seat entertainment meant, then it’s time to rediscover that pleasure.
Stylish and substantial the narrative weaves and winds its way into coherent and compulsive threads that bring together the theme of international espionage with the more sensitive issue of the Islamic and the personal identity of a man whose heroic stature grows out of a sense of commitment to the country and to world peace.
Personal interests, we are told, are easy to put aside if you can define heroism from a context far greater than your own good.
The deeper thrusts of Kamal Haasan and Atul Tiwari’s devious screenplay leap out of this compact epic drama which takes off into the Taliban terror outfit in Afghanistan and thence to the New York suburbia where domestic normalcy is replaced by a kind of ceaselessly renewable violence that has gripped working-class lives ever since the 26/11 attack on the US made it clear that international terrorism is here to stay. Deal with it.
Just about the only desirable thing that emerges from the horrific folds of global militancy are some great adventure sagas. And Vishwaroop is as gripping as it gets.
The narrative moves steadily and sharply to an inevitable nemesis. Maverick director Kamal Haasan (and this is his best directorial attempt since the grossly underrated Hey Ram in 2000) is in no hurry to tell his tale. Not that he wastes time. The mood for adventure is built quickly. The payoff is enormously satisfying.
With some remarkably austere and sharp editing by Mahesh Narayan and camerawork by Sanu John Verghese that captures scenes of violence with as much rugged candour as the sharply-drawn scenes from the hero’s personal life, Kamal Haasan’s tale of terror during the times of love, witticism, philosophizing and, yes, dancing comes alive in a huge adrenaline rush of adventure, action, drama and other related artistic tools which never come in the way of the actor-director’s primary concern.
Kamal Haasan means business. He is here to narrate an edge-of-the-seat story of international terrorism. The rigorous research that has gone into the plot never weighs down the narration.
Whether infiltrating the Al Qaeda (scarily real in the detailing and eerily cinematic in its visual sweep) or focusing on the hijinks of our hero, the creative crossovers in the narrative are achieved with the fluency of chapters in a deftly-written novel where Time is not squandered on superfluous detailing.
And yet Kamal Haasan avoids getting overly breathless in his narration. Shall we just say, Vishwaroop moves at the pace that it is meant to? Neither measured nor hurried the director negotiates the socio-political and cultural spaces in the plot with an elegant erudition.
Gone is the heavily cerebral over-studied atmosphere of Kamal Haasan’s earlier directorial epic Dasavatharam. Also gone is the over-indulgent footage-occupancy of this amazing actor’s recent screen outings. In Vishwaroop we see as much of Kamal Haasan as much as we want.
Yes, Kamal Haasan dominates the show with three different avatars whose destinies intertwine in ways that one can’t reveal without giving away the plot. But that’s the way the plot unfolds. That is the way it is meant to be.
The narrative in this case just can’t get enough of Kamal Haasan. Who but this actor can pull off heart-in-the-mouth never-seen stunts (action director Lee Whittaker and his associates have done a remarkable job) in the same range of vision as an elegantly performed Kathak number?
Pooja Kumar as Kamal Haasan’s beloved-Other is charming. She has a pleasant screen presence and yes, she isn’t in awe of her awesome co-star. However if anyone leaves a lasting impression after Mr Haasan it’s Rahul Bose who as an Al Qaeda chap swathes his persona in menace and terror without getting into the gritting-teeth mould.
Bose had last played a villain in Govind Nihalani’s Thakshak in 1999. It’s no coincidence that he returns to the colour black in a film that in many ways owes allegiance to the dark sinister angry anti-establishment tales of Nihalani. But Kamal Haasan adds a dash of warmth and humour to the intrinsically ominous saga. He is in terror-land with his tongue firmly in cheek.
The hallmark of this great adventure story is an intricate plot which wears its complexities lightly on its canvas, and a directorial dexterity that negotiates a journey from Afghanistan to the US in search of answers to the connundrum of terrorism, without becoming over-involved in the polemics and politics of the theme.
The sharply-drawn characters, the terrifying insight into the psyche of terrorism and the sumptuous mounting and packaging add up to a movie that is quite easily one of the finest adventure sagas in recent times. The action sequences are at last, on a par with Hollywood.
Insult to any community? Hah! It would be an insult to the filmmaking community to miss Vishwaroop. Miss this big-screen adventure your own risk.

The only thing needed to stop a movie is for some fringe group to go to this "sensitive" government and say that their feelings will be hurt. Amma would immediately put a 15 day ban. And,by the way, it's all Kamal's fault - does he not know to screen this movie to those terrorists much earlier?

I second that... Even KH is going soft and using careful words at this stage. We should not reignite (did it ever die!) the emotions. The focus now is to get the movie released with very minimal changes and give it a very big opening. As we said earlier, his profits depends on the theatrical release in TN.

yeah, specially considering the fact that they paid only a paltry 5C or something for this movie....race wud have been bought at a much higher price, for the Hindi market.

No, they must have paid way more. But, there might also be a revenue sharing agreement, beyond a certain threshold. details...no one knows. KH claimed that it has to get revenues of at least 150 C and in some interviews he has quoted a higher figure. This is not consistent with selling Hindi rights for 5C Originally Posted by kalyan

After all this ban, what can be more sweeter than more and more screens showing the film. Plus, more screens directly equates to more revenues. Films are increasingly a 1 to 2 week cycle. They get their major share in that timeframe.
If it releases in 1000+ screens smoothly, it will be a direct counter to JJ that she cannot protect all 500+ screens

So far:
Some muslim groups wanted to see the movie because they felt aggrieved that it will portray them badly.
They meet govt officials and are encouraged to see the movie and come back.
They return and are encouraged even more.
In the pretext of law and order, movie is banned for 15 days bringing KH to his knees. Note that at this time, none of the govt officials have seen the movie.
KH approaches the High court. Angers JJ even more.
Govt works overtime to prevent the ban from being lifted, even after the single judge removes it, citing that there is no real law & order problem, that all the district collectors could not have reached the same conclusion at the exact same time and suspended the movie in their respective districts
Citing the same law & order problem, intelligence reports etc (which no judge can immediately refute), judge has ordered to get back after a week, dealing a big blow to KH
Now KH can wait and deal with HC next week or go to Supreme court right away. But what's the point? Until JJ is given the role of problem solver, this problem will not be resolved. She can easily instruct police to not intervene if there are disturbances. She may even create some disturbance, to prove a point (a teaser was shown yesterday morning when some theatres started playing).
So KH rightly understands this dynamic and would thank JJ and get it over with. Even the muslim groups are ready for the compromise. Only thing missing is the grand arrival of Amma !

A loud thought- The muslim fundamentalists have seen the movie and clearly know they have nothing to object. at they same time they(muslims) want publicity. so the only way is to ask for ban before the movie is released and make noise.

Not sure if this was posted before. A very candid one:
http://www.mid-day.com/entertainment...-interview.htm
Q: Why would the Tamil Nadu government victimise you? You are an iconic actor who has done the state and country proud.
They do not think so. They feel I have been making too many controversial films and I need to be tamed and brought to my knees. So today I am being labelled anti-Islamic because the terrorists in my film owe their allegiance to Al Qaeda. They forget I made a film on Hindu terrorism — Hey Ram. They also forget that I was the first actor who stood up and condemned the demolition of the Babri Masjid. I am a friend of the Muslim community. In fact because of my name, I am often mistaken for one at international airports.
Q: Why do you become anti-Islamic by showing Islamic terrorism in Vishwaroop? After all so many good Hindi films like Subhash Ghai’s Black & White and Rensil D’Silva’s Kurbaan have shown the identity crisis of the Indian Muslim and his link to terrorism.
That means zilch to these people. The interesting thing is, not one terrorist in my film is an Indian. All the terror activity in the film is located in Afghanistan. Some Muslim brethren objected to references to Al Qaeda. I removed those.
Q: Why object to Al Qaeda being linked to terror activities?
Are we romancing rationality here? I have tried to reason with Ms Jayalalitha. After the court’s verdict I tried to meet her and explain my point of view. But she refused to meet me arguing that the matter is subjudice and that I should meet the Home Minister. Now, the Home Minister would have the same argument about the matter of being subjudice. I had met him and apprised him of my film and the situation before the court hearing. And there’s no way the powers-that-be would not know that I met the Home Minister. Not a leaf stirs in the state without her knowledge.
Q: This issue has taken on connotations beyond that of a film release…
The world is watching. I think the issue has gone far beyond my film. I am ready to face the consequences. I am going to take the print of the Tamil version of Vishwaroop and burn it in front of the relevant government office. They are aborting my baby. I might as well give it a proper cremation. I won’t bow down to fascism. This is a conspiracy to finish me off financially. To kill me. To make sure I am never able to make another film. And that is as good as death for me. Like I said, it is an irrational attack. But I’ve to fight it rationally because we artistes are rational people even if others are not.
and more ...

A timely tip-off from a retired police officer averted what could have possibly been a murderous attack on Kamal Haasan. Apparently, this benefactor, an old Kamal Haasan fan, advised the actor not to travel alone under any circumstance, as his life was in danger.
Haasan was warned Wednesday when the verdict on the screening of his banned film "Vishwaroopam" was awaited in Tamil Nadu.
Confirming this, Kamal said: "Yes, I was warned. I wouldn't want to name the kind gentleman since his life would also be jeopardized. But yes, I was told not to travel alone."

Just now saw the complete video of JJ's speech. Few thoughts
1. To me, it looks like she hasn't changed much from the days of Sandiyar when it comes to reacting to situations like this. But her approach has changed. Like I mentioned few days back, she refused to provide police protection to continue with the shooting of the film citing law & order problems back then.
2. Her arguments are totally on a side that Kalaignar would have taken but totally in a different way.
3. She had made her intentions clear that she only put a temporarily hold on the film till both the parties settle the matter amicably. Something which Kalaignar would have done by inviting the two groups and acting as a mediator [something few other hubbers mentioned sometime ago. Apparently Kalaignar can do what he did to Ajith even though the concerned person wasn't referring to him at all! Both operate on the same plane in this case. She has also mentioned clearly that she can't discuss it when Kamal had approached the court [Mind you politicians refuse to speak on anything if the matter is in court]
4. She cites law and order problem and to me it makes sense. But why adopt a different strategy for the caste festivals that take place in October in tamil nadu. Why not pull the plug for those functions as well?
5. She also mentions that she "has the powers" to put a permanent ban on the film but she didn't do as it wasn't her intention.
6. Agree with her comment on Kamal investing his property in the film. How come a govt be responsible for owning up the problem?
7. All said and done, people would have accused her of "being a Modi" had she gone ahead and then started oppressing the groups through police. As mentioned correctly by her, Kalaignar would have never let such an opportunity to go away.
I think JJ is changing over the last 5 years in terms of her core politics. If she was the old JJ, she would have never come out in the open to explain in detail like this. For Sandiyar, she didn't reach that much. In both the cases, she will be at a disadvantage. Had she approved Sandiyar, people would have claimed that she is anti-dalit for being close to the other caste. Here also, people would have blamed her to be another modi. She was correct about the other govt who have banned the films as well. If she is stupid, everyone else is stupid as well. No one used their brains.
Kamal had handled / is handling this matter in a chaotic manner. The only solution for this would be to win the case in SC. If he fails to win this, you can't blame JJ! You are blaming someone else for this problem.

And I think the review is actually for the Hindi version and they have mentioned "Vishwaroopam". (Not sure though)

Govt can not put ban on an already censor cleared film. Even if she decides to ban for 15 days, she has to step in voluntarily and solve with a group of members/officials in a proper way. Not just leaving both the parties to settle themselves even after knowing this is very religion sensitive matter where she really worries on law and order. If intelligence can inform law and order problem may arise if movie releases, then the same intelligence can pin point the bad elements who will step into bad activities.

Wrong. As per the Is ndian penal code, State govt has complete control to ban a film even after the censor. This was clarified by the lawyer in puthiyathalaimurai today. Also, just because a film is censored doesn't mean a govt has no control. Govt is the ultimate authority as per law Originally Posted by venkkiram

1. many of what JJ says appear to be sensible at the outset - and yet her comments on the L & O situation were damp squibs - so is she admitting her govts failure in curbing terror groups and actually bowing to terror groups demands to watch the film and later ban it, because these guys threaten to create havoc ?? then whats her govt for ??

by repeatedly harking on L&O situation and her foresight in preventing incidents and NOT focussing on getting rid of the elements threatening these incidents hasn't she abdicated her moral responsibility as a chief minister ?
3. back to the L & O situation based on intelligence reports - if I were in charge of national security, I would pull her up and demand an explanation - is there a serious internal security threat ? and is that the reason the ban was effected ? if so, whats the potential for this threat to become a national phenomenon ? if its a threat posed by islamic groups, and is real, whats the guarantee that this will not encourage other fringe grps to hold a govt at ransom ?
4. summaaa 'anbe sivam' 'aamanakkey thavam' nu oru tharappinar mattum koovi koovi amaidhiya nila naatta mudiyaadhu - it has to work both ways - she had the responsibility to tell the muslim grps to shut the trap or seek asylum in pakistan or even better the land of the taliban - instead of that she chose to compromise on the sweat and blood of an artiste - well, even if Kamal is ok with it - the ramifications from the national internal security threat point of view are looking large now, if JJ is to be believed !
5. seriously, whether JJ is gonna be portrayed as the next Modi or not, I dont care - if Modi can do a better job in keeping the islamic nutcases under control, i would rather have him in charge than JJ who by her own admission has failed to keep them under control (add the chennai US consulate attack last year by anbu sagodharar Jawarullah and co).
on a lighter note, oru vela if Kamal had included a Nagoor Haneefa song like 'iraivanidam kai yendhungal - avan illai yendru solluvadhillai' as part of the film, the grps might have felt happy - but what the heck ? who are they to inform us on what we shd watch and what we shouldnt ?

As I mentioned, the same JJ adopts a different strategy to curb caste gumbals except the recent incidents that she quoted. She can very well do the same for other festivals that happen in October in TN [Not to single them out but everyone following the path]

Not just Kamal even the opposing groups are paying taxes. She can't take sides. Can she?

These questions aren't valid. She quotes incidents in Karnataka, kerala and Andhra and ones that happened in TN yesterday. As I mentioned, if she is dumb, others are even dumper.
// 4. summaaa 'anbe sivam' 'aamanakkey thavam' nu oru tharappinar mattum koovi koovi amaidhiya nila naatta mudiyaadhu - it has to work both ways - she had the responsibility to tell the muslim grps to shut the trap or seek asylum in pakistan or even better the land of the taliban - instead of that she chose to compromise on the sweat and blood of an artiste - well, even if Kamal is ok with it - the ramifications from the national internal security threat point of view are looking large now, if JJ is to be believed ! //
Needless to say, she had quoted the violent reactions and had indirectly referred to the groups. If she goes in the way you suggested, it will do her more damage. What if Kamal settles the matter offline with muslim groups.. I think she had done the right thing by allowing the matter to go to court once it went out of countrol.
// 5. seriously, whether JJ is gonna be portrayed as the next Modi or not, I dont care - if Modi can do a better job in keeping the islamic nutcases under control, i would rather have him in charge than JJ who by her own admission has failed to keep them under control (add the chennai US consulate attack last year by anbu sagodharar Jawarullah and co). //
Agree. the attack on US consulate can't be justified. she failed to keep law & order. May be she thought she doesn't want a repeat of that or a repeat of paramakudi if it was the other way around
// on a lighter note, oru vela if Kamal had included a Nagoor Haneefa song like 'iraivanidam kai yendhungal - avan illai yendru solluvadhillai' as part of the film, the grps might have felt happy - but what the heck ? who are they to inform us on what we shd watch and what we shouldnt ? //

----------------------------------------------
"First the British, then the Russians, then Taliban and Americans; now you "Monkeys with their tail in the front" (its given in tamil in the film - but we have to find out the Afhghani Phrase/idiom's actual meaning) have come to play with our lives.." is the dejected Afghani Old woman's lament, looking at the Jihadhis visiting a NATO strike location in a destroyed afghani village
This is the key to understand the plane on which Kamal's War Saga based on the Afghan conflict - needs to be understood.
------------------------
This is absolutely an attempt to Glorify the Indian and the Tamil Muslims which the JJ (and Hindutva diabolical plotters) instigated tamil muslims have pathetically failed to understand.
---------------------------
Wont spil any spoilers but the Dialogues are Mind boggling , many of the dialogues are like kuraLs (anuvai piLanthu 7 kadalai pukuthi kuRukath tharitha kuRaL!"
The Black women officer: "..So you pray to Allah"
Nirupama: "No Our God is the one with Four Hands"
officer (intrigued): "So how do you crucify him"
Niru (totally stumped what to say): "mm... we dunk him in the sea?" (reference to Vainava Govindaraja perumal thrown in to sea by kulOthunga chOzhan!)
------------------------------
officer 1: "whats he doing"
officer 2: " He's praying for you too"
Off1: "God Almighty"
Off2: "yes the Arabic version of it"
------------------------------------
As with Hey Ram, Dasa - this film has the Periyarist Writer Kamal, pasted all over it.
-------------------------------------------------------
To the completely unintiated to the Cinema Language, (as Kamal put it succinctly) this film would not make heads or tails as to what he tried to say. My take oin this is, Kamal is condemning the Wahabhi motivated, instigated mindless Religious centric terrorism, which even has killed the Native Ethnic Spirit of Afghani people.
--------------------------
There are much more questions that i want to share as Lound thinking/contemplative thinking, but that can wait after the other hubbers have seen this.
This is a film that every thamizhan should be proud of for its brilliance in making. Kamalhassan the finest ever thamizh kalaignan ever lived!

At a shallow level, the above looks logical but in reality it isn't. Originally Posted by selvakumar

Why did he say that censor was bribed and that they didn't do due diligence?
Check out http://www.firstpost.com/politics/th...#disqus_thread
"The chief minister said Haasan could have approached the government earlier and it would have facilitated a dialogue with Muslim groups but instead he chose to go to the high court. As a result of him going to the high court she had also cancelled a scheduled meeting with him, Jayalalithaa said."
Basically, she expected him to come running to her but he didn't!
If she had intelligence on muslim grooups that were going to create trouble, why not arrest them or better BAN them?
Even after all this, it is disappointing that someone is justifying JJ's actions.

Hmm..Lets nail this straight - JJ and her Hindutva Companions were waiting to get back at the "periyarist samrt a*% Kamal, for what he has been doing all these years, like Avvai Shanmugi, hey Ram, Anbe Sivam, Dasa and yes that MMA song.
So they instigated the most vulerable Islamic groups fears and played on them - until Kamal was brought in his Knees.
the Hindutva backed project succeeded until Kamal hit back with his "koLkaikkAka sAkiRa komban' stance.

Terrorism is no longer confined to a particular province, district or state. It's a worldwide concern, affecting every nation in some way or the other. Kamal Haasan's VISHWAROOP, therefore, is pertinent. This time around, the legendary actor helms a genre that's very Hollywoodish and -- here's good news -- he pulls it off quite well.
Attempting a nail-biting thriller can be tough. Scores of films have traversed the path in the past. However, Kamal Haasan shuns the tried and tested, humdrum stuff and comes up with a fare that prides itself of mesmerizing action, stunts and combat scenes and marries form [technique] and content [drama] to the delight of the spectators. The film is not without its share of hiccups -- it's way too lengthy and the second half is sketchy -- but the effort is laudable, nonetheless.
America, 2012. A marriage of convenience. Vishwanath alias Wiz [Kamal Haasan], a Kathak exponent, and Nirupama [Pooja Kumar] get married. All is fine till Nirupama aspires for more and wants to opt out of the arranged marriage. She cannot cite any specific reason to leave Wiz as there is nothing much to complain about him.
Every male, according to Nirupama, must have a flaw. So she decides to find out something about him to feel better about her decision to part. She hires a detective to rake up something on him. Wires get cross-connected and all hell breaks loose.
VISHWAROOP starts off with gusto and Kamal Haasan ensures there's hardly any dull moment in the first hour. The transformation from a graceful dance teacher to an agent as well as the back story involving the jihadis are proficiently amalgamated in the screenplay and executed by the storyteller, with the swift pacing and brisk unfolding of events/episodes acting as a cherry on the cake. The combat scenes, in fact, are the mainstay of the enterprise, with Kamal Haasan going all out -- as an actor as well as the director -- to make it appear real on the big screen.
But the post-interval portions lose focus. The writing isn't persuasive in this hour, especially towards the middle of the second hour and even otherwise, the narrative seems prolonged towards the concluding stages [it's an open end, with Kamal Haasan declaring his ambitious plans for a sequel]. Besides, the resolution could've been far more dramatic and convincing. It isn't!
Hollywood often illustrates the jihadis in a typical style and Kamal Haasan uses this template in VISHWAROOP as well. The ill-advised Afghanis and their cry for war against America seem straight out of a western flick. These sequences, coupled with the action stuff, keep you thoroughly involved. Like I pointed out earlier, the execution of several action/combat scenes is exemplary.
There's no scope for the usual song and dance routine here, but the background score works well. Additionally, the movie gets brownie points in the technical department, right from shot designing to cinematography to the sound design. Also, Kamal Haasan and his art department deserve a pat for zeroing on some stunning locales.
Kamal Haasan has portrayed a wide variety of characters in his illustrious career and when you look back on his body of work, this act in VISHWAROOP is sure merit a spot amongst his finest works. He is incredible in the dance sequence at the very commencement of the film and changes colors like a chameleon as he takes to the death-defying stunts with passion. It won't be erroneous to state that Kamal Haasan's towering performance is one of the prime reasons why VISHWAROOP stands tall.
The film has an array of talented actors and each of them enact their parts with graceful ease. Rahul Bose is in top form. Why don't we see this talented actor in more movies? Jaideep Ahlawat is an amazing talent and I am very sure, we will hear more of him in the future. Shekhar Kapur returns to the big screen in a charming cameo. Nasser gets into the skin of the character with gusto. Both Pooja Kumar and Andrea Jeremiah are adequate.
On the whole, VISHWAROOP is a Kamal Haasan show all the way. It has an interesting premise, superb combat scenes and Kamal Haasan's bravura act as its three aces. But a stretched second hour and far from dramatic finale dilute the impact. Yet, all said and done, those with an appetite for well-made thrillers might relish this effort!

thew14.com/2013/02/01/mayank-shekhars-review-vishwaroop/Mayank Shekhar’s Review: Vishwaroop
February 1, 2013 · by theW14.com · in Indian Cinema, Review. ·
Desi Die Hard: kamaal hai!
Vishwaroop
Director: Kamal Haasan
Actors: Kamal Haasan, Rahul Bose, Pooja Kumar
Neeraj Pandey’s A Wednesday (2008), which was based on terrorism, just like this film, was recently remade in Tamil. The film was about an anonymous man who as a terrorist threatens to bomb a city while the police commissioner negotiates with him through the day. Naseeruddin Shah played the anonymous man and Anupam Kher the cop in the original. Kamal Haasan played Naseer’s part in the Tamil version. In an interview when Naseer was asked who should play Kher’s role in the Tamil remake, he wondered, “Isn’t Kamal playing both the roles?” Such is the reputation the endearing Kamal Sir holds, you see!
I suppose one of the reasons he writes, directs and acts in films is so he can fit into as many characters in a lifetime. Given that a lifetime is relatively short, plenty of roles in one movie will do just fine for this adorable performer. In one of his last major outings, Dasavataram, which I haven’t seen, Haasan played 13 characters, including the President of the Unites States.
In this film, he arrives first as a Bharatnatyam dance-guru, surrounded by gorgeous gopis. Haasan’s character Vishwanath is married to a super hot scientist (Pooja Kumar, terribly hammy, though the role may have demanded this!). He’s probably gay, definitely very effeminate. Why they’re married in the first place will seem a mystery only if you step back from the movie. He loves to cook and care. She’s in it merely for the green card. You’re aware there’s another side to his personality. She has none.
At some point, the film reveals the man behind Vishwanath: an Indian Muslim Wasim Kashmiri, who’s no less than the baap of Al Qaeda, having taught them all they know. He’s literally a killing machine with summersault and flying skills. This meek alter-ego, versus stellar hero with super-powers, is stuff of classic comic book literature. This man used to be one among the mujahideen in a multinational group funded by Saudis, helped by Pakistan, led by an Afghan warlord (one-eyed Rahul Bose with hoarseness of Brando’s Godfather voice), training and fighting around the same caves that Osama bin Laden once called home. We spot Osama once. Wasim Kashmiri seems far more interesting.
The same person now lives in New York City as Taufiq. It appears that he may be fighting terrorism this time. We don’t know that for sure yet. Or don’t want to. As a viewer you go along with the film that you enjoy, rather than inevitably knowing better and killing the fun.
Between the role of a hard-core jehadi terrorist, a pansy dance master, and a city slicker in the US with Shekhar Kapur for an older associate/uncle, Haasan fulfils his personal count of three characters in one movie, meeting at the same his follower’s expectations from him. The film alternates between the jehadi’s escapades in the desert and the same hero’s time in America. The parallel plot offers a strong enough clothesline to hang on it some strapping stunt and battle scenes with rattling Kalashnikovs, drone attacks, and other aerial warfare. The special effect is as good as you’re likely to get in any Indian film. Some of the story begins to fizzle out towards the end, but you’ve loved the ride enough to not care by then. The budgets allow the filmmakers to roughly mirror Afghanistan and approximate a Hollywood action enterprise.
The credit must go to the writer, director, actor alone. In a career of over five decades, Haasan has remained right at the centre of mainstream Tamil cinema and yet constantly attempted to push the envelope through both his performance and story-telling, taking on untouchable genres like a silent comedy (Pushpak), subtle humour (Chachi 420) to relatively complex material like Abhay, Sadma, Nayakan, or Appu Raja. His contemporary Rajnikanth, on the other hand, has served his bhakts by doing what they like to see him do best – play the super-star screen God. A close analogy for Kamal Sir and Rajni Sir at this point would be Aamir and Salman in Bollywood.
This film’s subject – global terrorism – is something the whole world is grappling with. It will show up in creative expression of all sorts. Vishwaroop isn’t the first film on the issue. It certainly won’t be the last. Does it portray terrorists in a negative light? Yes. Does that mean it maligns Islam? Only someone playing politics on these matters would think so. By now it’s fairly established to audiences world over that deaths, violence and fanaticism represent no religion. Haasan’s political film Hey Ram, on the assassins of Mahatma Gandhi, wasn’t an attack on Hinduism either.
This is a full-on entertaining, desi mix of James Bourne or Die Hard series and other similar American blockbusters. The filmmakers even hire actors to pose as FBI agents, pointing fingers to their eyes and then to the target, for proper Hollywood effect. Watching this film after observing impassioned debates on national news over its possible ban, you can’t help, but wonder, “Uh oh… Why so serious?”

He mentioned the Himalayas line/scene from Hey Ram in the conference as well as in the Arnab interview.
When talking about yielding 'thani manidhan soththu' if it actually meant the 'peace of TN' I was reminded of the other line in Hey Ram spoken by Gandhi on the lines of: 'if all this hatred can be taken as a bullet, then I will take it...if it can be promised that after that people will live in peace'.

Now that the movie as released all over India without problems ,the claims of TN govt and fringe groups seems oxymoronish and their press meets,arguments and statements seems to be incoherent. Moreover the whole thing seems to be orchestrated by combination of people who have big egos,people seeking cheap publicity,terrorists sympathizer or terrorist sleeper cells who were arrested in CBE bomb blasts and a nexus of piracy mafia(who often have links with terrorists groups havalla money operators), the fringe minority groups and the present TN govt,piracy market is said to be worth in millions ,it is rumored that these ppl were behind KH for bringing in DTH as they feared that it would seriously eat into their market in the future. Now the TN govt stands exposed and their arguments don't hold water.It seems anyone or a combination of the above seems more likely reason for the ban.

Vishwaroop
By Taran Adarsh, 1 Feb 2013, 09:34 hrs IST
http://www.bollywoodhungama.com/images/star_group_3.png
Terrorism is no longer confined to a particular province, district or state. It's a worldwide concern, affecting every nation in some way or the other. Kamal Haasan's VISHWAROOP, therefore, is pertinent. This time around, the legendary actor helms a genre that's very Hollywoodish and -- here's good news -- he pulls it off quite well.
Attempting a nail-biting thriller can be tough. Scores of films have traversed the path in the past. However, Kamal Haasan shuns the tried and tested, humdrum stuff and comes up with a fare that prides itself of mesmerizing action, stunts and combat scenes and marries form [technique] and content [drama] to the delight of the spectators. The film is not without its share of hiccups -- it's way too lengthy and the second half is sketchy -- but the effort is laudable, nonetheless.
America, 2012. A marriage of convenience. Vishwanath alias Wiz [Kamal Haasan], a Kathak exponent, and Nirupama [Pooja Kumar] get married. All is fine till Nirupama aspires for more and wants to opt out of the arranged marriage. She cannot cite any specific reason to leave Wiz as there is nothing much to complain about him.
Every male, according to Nirupama, must have a flaw. So she decides to find out something about him to feel better about her decision to part. She hires a detective to rake up something on him. Wires get cross-connected and all hell breaks loose.
VISHWAROOP starts off with gusto and Kamal Haasan ensures there's hardly any dull moment in the first hour. The transformation from a graceful dance teacher to an agent as well as the back story involving the jihadis are proficiently amalgamated in the screenplay and executed by the storyteller, with the swift pacing and brisk unfolding of events/episodes acting as a cherry on the cake. The combat scenes, in fact, are the mainstay of the enterprise, with Kamal Haasan going all out -- as an actor as well as the director -- to make it appear real on the big screen.
But the post-interval portions lose focus. The writing isn't persuasive in this hour, especially towards the middle of the second hour and even otherwise, the narrative seems prolonged towards the concluding stages [it's an open end, with Kamal Haasan declaring his ambitious plans for a sequel]. Besides, the resolution could've been far more dramatic and convincing. It isn't!
Hollywood often illustrates the jihadis in a typical style and Kamal Haasan uses this template in VISHWAROOP as well. The ill-advised Afghanis and their cry for war against America seem straight out of a western flick. These sequences, coupled with the action stuff, keep you thoroughly involved. Like I pointed out earlier, the execution of several action/combat scenes is exemplary.
There's no scope for the usual song and dance routine here, but the background score works well. Additionally, the movie gets brownie points in the technical department, right from shot designing to cinematography to the sound design. Also, Kamal Haasan and his art department deserve a pat for zeroing on some stunning locales.
Kamal Haasan has portrayed a wide variety of characters in his illustrious career and when you look back on his body of work, this act in VISHWAROOP is sure merit a spot amongst his finest works. He is incredible in the dance sequence at the very commencement of the film and changes colors like a chameleon as he takes to the death-defying stunts with passion. It won't be erroneous to state that Kamal Haasan's towering performance is one of the prime reasons why VISHWAROOP stands tall.
The film has an array of talented actors and each of them enact their parts with graceful ease. Rahul Bose is in top form. Why don't we see this talented actor in more movies? Jaideep Ahlawat is an amazing talent and I am very sure, we will hear more of him in the future. Shekhar Kapur returns to the big screen in a charming cameo. Nasser gets into the skin of the character with gusto. Both Pooja Kumar and Andrea Jeremiah are adequate.
On the whole, VISHWAROOP is a Kamal Haasan show all the way. It has an interesting premise, superb combat scenes and Kamal Haasan's bravura act as its three aces. But a stretched second hour and far from dramatic finale dilute the impact. Yet, all said and done, those with an appetite for well-made thrillers might relish this effort!

His admiration for Kamal - who was exuding righteous indignation - was obvious.
But Arnab did show a lot of 'respect' though . With his usual irritating style of emotional questioning, He wanted to nail Kamal on his 'escapist' threat of leaving the country...and Kamal really answered it well...

Exactly ! Oru cut-um irukkaathu (or just one or two minor cuts). All this drama is to save her face and these Muslim fellows are acting as per her instruction. Muslim groups will say Kamal agreed to do the editing and Kamal would say it all went on well. Both will call each other 'anbu sagoatharargaL'.

ஹிந்தியில் வெளியாகியுள்ள கமலின் விஸ்வரூப் முதல் காட்சி டில்லியில் முடிந்து ரசிகர்கள் வெளியே வந்து விட்டனர். டில்லியில் மட்டும் படம் 20 தியேட்டர்களில் திரையிடப்பட்டிருந்தன.
ரசிகர்கள் மனநிலை எப்படி உள்ளது என தியேட்டர் வாசலில் அசெஸ்மென்ட் செய்து வெளியிட்டுள்ள cnn-ibn, “ரசிகர்கள் புன்னகையுடன் வெளியே வந்தார்கள். படத்தில் இஸ்லாத்துக்கு எதிராகவோ, இந்தியாவுக்கு எதிராகவோ காட்சிகள் ஏதுமில்லை. படம் சூப்பராக உள்ளது” என்று கூறியுள்ளது.
இந்த படம் தேசிய விருதுகளை நிச்சயம் வெல்லும். இந்திய திரையுலகையே விஸ்வரூபம் அசைத்துக் காட்டும்” என்ற காமென்ட்டையும் cnn-ibn வெளியிட்டுள்ளது.
“படத்தில் இஸ்லாத்துக்கு எதிரான காட்சிகள் இருந்தால் தடைசெய்யப்படும்” என அறிவிக்கப்பட்ட உத்திரபிரதேசத்திலும், முதலாவது காட்சி எந்தவிட இடையூறும் இன்றி ஓடி முடிந்துள்ளது.
டில்லி தியேட்டர்களுக்கு முன் பெரியளவில் விளம்பரங்கள் ஏதுமில்லை. தியேட்டர் இணைத்தளத்தில்தான் படம் வெளியாகிறது என்ற அறிவிப்பு இருந்தது. ஆனால், முதல்நாள் ரசிகர்களின் எண்ணிக்கை எதிர்பாராத அளவில் உள்ளதால், காட்சிகளின் எண்ணிக்கை அதிகரிக்கப்படும் என்று தெரிகிறது.
படத்துக்கு தடை என வெளியான செய்திகள், அட்டகாசமான விளம்பரத்தை கொடுத்துள்ளன. தமிழகத்துக்கு வெளியே விஸ்வரூபம், எதிர்பார்த்ததைவிட அதிக வசூலை பெறும் என்கிறார்கள்.

Havent watched the movie yet, thanks to JJ&Co, so it was just my assumption. Thought that way because every years millions of Ganapati Idols are immersed in the sea/other water bodies and the Vishnu idol getting immersed in the sea was largely fictional.. (Dasa). BUt dunno what Kamal, the writer had in his mind. Originally Posted by SoftSword

Vishnu thaanga iyengarskku main idol....Ganesh has been referred to as thumbikai aalwar and also as Vishwaksena....But normal iyengar convention is that Vishwaksena and ganesha are different....They have similar roles though.... Originally Posted by Nachiketa

Last night in HT (or CNN or times??) for about half an hour, Kamal answered calls from the public. Celebs grabbed this opportunity and called on the same line. Mahesh Bhatt, Khushbu and Prakash Raj. Some of the lines he spoke were really touching.
If you get a link, just see his face when he responded to Prakash Raj. He really meant it!
"Prakash Raj, I know you were one of the first to speak out and show your support. I will never forget that...and you know that!"
To Khushbu, (not verbatim)
"I have hugged you and romanced & sung duets with you in the past. But the hug you gave me yesterday is real. You made my shoulders wet with your tears and thats love"
When the interviewer asked something like "What lessons did you learn from this experience?"
he answered,
"I learnt 2 things - the first one is something I will forget soon but the 2nd will be forever. I got to know what Hatred is and what real love is"

அம்மா நேர்காணல் - அனந்த கோடி அர்த்தங்கள்
இந்தப் பதிவு ஒரு திரைப்படத்தின் சர்ச்சை தொடர்பான எதிர்வினையாக ஓர் அரசியல் தலைவரின் சமீபத்திய தொலைக்காட்சி நேர்காணல் பற்றியது. தமிழ்நாட்டுடன் தொடர்புடையது என்று தவறாக எண்ணிக் கொள்ள வேண்டாம். வசதிக்காக கசகஸ்தான், பிலேரியா என்று கற்பனையான பிரசேத்தை கற்பனை செய்து கொளளவும். "துபாய் எங்க இருக்கு - அது தூத்துக்குடியிலோ, திருநெல்வேலி பக்கத்துலயோ' என்கிற ரீதியில் வாசிக்கவும். (ஏபிசிடி சட்டங்களின் கீழ் களி தின்ன எனக்கு விருப்பமும் எண்ணமும் இல்லை என்கிற காரணத்திற்காக).
()
முதல்வரின் நேர்காணல் திறமையான திரைக்கதையைக் கொண்ட ஒரு திரைப்படத்தைப் போல சுவாரசியமாக இருந்தது. ஒரு அம்மா குழந்தைக்கு சோறூட்டிக் கொண்டே கதை சொல்வதைப் போன்ற கனிவுடனும் பொறுமையுடனும் தெளிவுடனும் இந்த நேர்காணல் அமைந்திருந்த போதும், ஒரு கோயிஞ்சாமி நண்பர் சில விஷயங்கள் சரியாகப் புரியவில்லை என்னிடம் குறைபட்டுக் கொண்டார். 'அம்மாவின் பேச்சு புரியவில்லை' என்று கூறுகிற இந்த மாபாதகத்திற்கே அவரை 144-ல் எத்தியோப்பியாவிற்கு பார்சல் செய்து அனுப்ப சட்டத்தில் இடமுள்ளது என்றாலும் அம்மாவின் அதே கருணையுள்ளத்தோடு அந்த நேர்காணலை கட்டுடைத்து அவருக்கு சில விஷயங்களை விளக்க வேண்டியதாயிற்று.

Agree that not all rational people are atheists nor all atheists rational. From my experience most atheists tend to be rationalists.
I haven't noticed branding of believers as irrationals, but I have a lot of atheists calling unnecessary traditions as irrational.
Personally I don't think all believers are irrational, there are a lot of brilliant people who are theists.
Completely disagree with 'Freedom to Believe' to be respected.
You have all the freedom to believe whatever you want and people have all the freedom to question or criticize. I agree that criticize shouldn't mean calling everyone else irrational at the same time I don't see why atheists shouldn't call themselves rationalists

Kalyan, I do not know why you want to stick only with "atheists promoting to be rationalists". Rationalism is much wider. Anyone who tries to reason out things comes under rationalism. Whether he is rationalist or not depends on his questionings of his own understanding and analyse of other views. Belief only does not lead to rationalism neither does acceptence.
A kid was in the temple with his dad, early morning to see the milk abhisekam - he had his hands joined and his forehead painted with ashes, just like a normal devotee - when the milk was poured, he asked his dad - "Won't the god fell cold" ?
Now I allow you to bring up your own theory on this questions.
Inference - Rationalism is a form of seeking truth - questioning, reasoning & understanding - like I will not bend unless you tell me why should I, but I certainly know how.

how is this correct ? Belief in a higher power is intrinsically a 'leap of faith' illaya, esp if you are saying stuff like " With my experiences I have got convinced that there has to be a God, and with my rationale I have chosen to believe" then that is a very personal twist on the definition of the word rationalist. Simply believing things based on your experiences would imply UFOs exist.Belief supersedes logical, rational step by step deduction, otherwise 'GOD breaks infinite regress argument' will get nullified.
Not taking a dig at believers but just pointing out the fallacy in the above logic.
In fact to me even atheists are not complete rationalists in the sense that they most often vehemently oppose that which they cannot disprove. Maybe agnostics can be true rationalists!!

Immersing Ganapathi in the sea is not because we dont like him. Let me make it short by using the word Karma - When the clay dissolves and gets mingled with the 5 elements (Look at Param's signature), the cycle of birth and death is attained - your body = the clay idol. This symbolises the liberation moves one towards the freedom of the cycle of Life and death. Originally Posted by SoftSword

Vishwaroop, without this 'hysteria' would have become another Dashavtar/Mumbai Express in NI. None of us (Kamal fans in hub)were confident about its performance in the north). South'ilirundhu evvalavu nalla padam vandhaalum avinga paakka maattaanga. But now it is almost certain that Vishwaroop is the winner among the 6 or 7 movies released today. David is sure to fall and the rest are all non-starters. Though Vishwaroop did not have a flying start, evening shows are going to be packed, especially in multiplexes.

The Hindi version of Kamal Haasan's Vishwaroopam opened to good response in the Northern region on Friday, with multiplex owners claiming that the controversy surrounding the movie has generated more curiosity among the audience.
Titled Vishwaroop, the film saw an average occupancy of about 50 to 60 per cent across theatres in north India on Friday without any untoward incident barring some protests in Lucknow.
"The film has generated quite a lot of hype and the controversy seems to have turned out to be a positive publicity here. The occupancy rates were about 60 to 70 per cent today across DT Cinemas and we expect it to go up to 100 per cent over the weekend," DT cinemas spokesperson Anant Verma said.
Vishwaroop has been given three to four shows per day in the 18 odd screens that DT Cinemas have in Delhi and there have been no disruptions in the screenings here, he said.
"I have heard of some problems in UP, but in Delhi, Haryana and Punjab shows have been conducted peacefully," Mr Verma said, adding that the advance bookings for the film have also been good.
Despite facing a ban in Tamil Nadu and minor problems in the neighbouring states, the film has seen a good response both in southern and northern regions.
"The movie has done exceptionally well with occupancy of 80 per cent plus in south zone and 50 per cent in north zone respectively and we are expecting it to rise further in the coming weekend. As far as the advance booking is concerned, it is expected to rise in the coming weeks especially over the weekends," PVR Pictures President Kamal Gianchandani said in a statement.
There were some protests by a Muslim group in Lucknow, demanding that "objectionable portions be deleted" and the film be "banned from release in Uttar Pradesh".
Vishwaroop however released in the UP capital amidst tight security. Force was deployed in strength around the theatres and malls running the film.
The film had a smooth release in Kanpur, UP, with 27 shows in four multiplexes and three single-screen theatres with a good turnout.
"We didn't have any directive related to the film from the administration to stop the release. So the film has released smoothly in theatres. We have not received any report of trouble from any theatre," Kanpur DM MP Agrawal said.

NDTV : 'Vishwaroop' opens to good response in North India
The Hindi version of Kamal Haasan's Vishwaroopam opened to good response in the Northern region on Friday, with multiplex owners claiming that the controversy surrounding the movie has generated more curiosity among the audience.
Titled Vishwaroop, the film saw an average occupancy of about 50 to 60 per cent across theatres in north India on Friday without any untoward incident barring some protests in Lucknow.
"The film has generated quite a lot of hype and the controversy seems to have turned out to be a positive publicity here. The occupancy rates were about 60 to 70 per cent today across DT Cinemas and we expect it to go up to 100 per cent over the weekend," DT cinemas spokesperson Anant Verma said.
Vishwaroop has been given three to four shows per day in the 18 odd screens that DT Cinemas have in Delhi and there have been no disruptions in the screenings here, he said.
"I have heard of some problems in UP, but in Delhi, Haryana and Punjab shows have been conducted peacefully," Mr Verma said, adding that the advance bookings for the film have also been good.
Despite facing a ban in Tamil Nadu and minor problems in the neighbouring states, the film has seen a good response both in southern and northern regions.
"The movie has done exceptionally well with occupancy of 80 per cent plus in south zone and 50 per cent in north zone respectively and we are expecting it to rise further in the coming weekend. As far as the advance booking is concerned, it is expected to rise in the coming weeks especially over the weekends," PVR Pictures President Kamal Gianchandani said in a statement.
There were some protests by a Muslim group in Lucknow, demanding that "objectionable portions be deleted" and the film be "banned from release in Uttar Pradesh".
Vishwaroop however released in the UP capital amidst tight security. Force was deployed in strength around the theatres and malls running the film.

'Vishwaroop' gets peaceful release, opens to average response
By Indo Asian News Service | IANS – 1 hour 33 minutes ago....
More »....New Delhi, Feb 1 (IANS)
"Vishwaroop", the Hindi version of actor-director Kamal Haasan's controversial film "Vishwaroopam", released peacefully Friday to an average response, which was likely to pick up over the weekend.
The movie, the original Tamil and Telugu version of which is currently banned in Tamil Nadu, released without any hassles in Delhi, Punjab and Rajasthan, while in Uttar Pradesh and Mumbai, security was beefed up at cinema halls for the release over fear of protests.
"Vishwaroopam" is under the scanner of 24 Muslim organisations, which objected to certain scenes of the film as derogatory to their community.
However, the situation seems to have sparked increased interest in the movie in north India.
In Delhi, the response was okay, but the collections are expected to increase during the weekend, says Anant Verma, director and business head, DT Cinemas.
"Whoever has seen the movie has liked it - be it people from south India or north India. The publicity that the movie has got is working in favour of the movie. We are expecting a hike (in collections) over the weekend," Verma told IANS.
He says no security issues have been reported at any of his halls here so far, and "everything is under control".
"The occupancy for the first show was around 55 to 60 per cent, but that is how it is every (early) Friday. The films start picking up from Friday evening," he added.
Delhi-based distributor Joginder Mahajan admits the start for "Vishwaroop" is "poor", but "it is expected to grow over the weekend".
He pointed out how "since there has been so much controversy, people avoid going on the first day".
In east Punjab, the film's opening was below average, informed distributor Jaspal Dhingra of Nanaksar Enterprises.
"The response to the first show was below average. The film may be good, but collections are very average. Generally, dubbed films from south India don't do well in Punjab. There are very few people here who want to watch the movie," Dhingra told IANS.
"As far as security is concerned, there were no issues here and I don't think there will be any problems in the future too," he said.
Written, directed and produced by Kamal Haasan, the Rs.95 crore thriller was scheduled to release in Tamil and Telugu on Jan 25. A day earlier, the Tamil Nadu government imposed a two-week ban on the film.
In Jaipur, the film got a peaceful opening and there were are no protests, said police officials.
However, the situation was different in Mumbai and Uttar Pradesh.
Small theatres in Mumbai are said to be full, but multiplexes lack audience for "Vishwaroop".
"Small theatres, which have an occupancy of 150 seats are almost full, but in big theatres, which have an occupancy of 1,000 seats have hardly any audiences," Manoj M. Desai, executive director of G7 Multiplex, told IANS.
"I feel there is so much police protection around that the audience feels 'why to take a risk'. Police security is more than the audience at many places," said Desai.
In Uttar Pradesh, the film is being screened in five multiplexes and two single-screen theatres, officials told IANS.
There were minor protests outside the Shubham Hall in Lucknow and a multiplex in Agra. Atul Gupta, deputy manager of PVR Cinemas in the state capital told IANS that the first show opened at 1 p.m. with only 70 spectators in a hall meant to seat 209 people.
Meanwhile, Kamal Haasan and his brother Chandra Haasan are trying to reach a solution to end the ban on "Vishwaroopam" in Tamil Nadu, which has led to their incurring losses of Rs.30-60 crore.

The villain says that "I have stayed in Coimbatore, Madurai, north india etc.. so I learned tamil.. - just to interact with the villain in Tamil, this is used by Kamal. Kamal could have added "my stay in india was before becoming terrorist".. Originally Posted by P_R

Now the most important question. Is there anything that inflames communal feelings that warrants a blanket ban?
No, absolutely nothing.
Even with a magnifying device, it is rather impossible to find portions that might offend Muslims. The bad guys in the film are not Muslims or even the stereotypes of radical Islamists. Instead, Kamal is quite specific about them – they are the Al-Qaeda terrorists.
Since he hasn’t invented the look, feel and behaviour of the Al-Qaeda radicals, the blame against him and the film is misplaced. It’s really surprising that a group of people have been able to stop the screening of the movie in Tamil Nadu on such flimsy grounds. Where does it “target Muslims and their beliefs”? I couldn’t tell.

Actually, almost all major news channels in NI yesterday approached Kamal and he spoke to them, because they had nobody to fear, which is exactly lacking in TN (besides TN film industry not being vocal about their support). Media here fear posing the right questions and exposing the culprits or making a stand, and that becomes JJ/fringe groups' strength.
If only TN film industry and media had been more vocal and behaved responsibly (by raising the right questions), releasing a Tamil movie would not have become this difficult.
I "strongly" feel, Kamal must make VR2 and release it in DTH first making profits followed by theatrical release, before moving on to another secular state/country..if need be. But hope, TN will still be(come) his place.

Regarding Vishnu vs Ganapathy dunking, makkals thinking toooo much. Nirupama clearly makes a gesture referring to thumbikkai, then feels the fat FBI lady wouldnt understand and then she says 4 hands. Athukkulla Dasavatharam referencu, Geno vera Kulothunga cholan ellaam sollittaru. ( Anyway, want to hear more from Geno on the movie preferably after the Taliban Nadu guys watch it.
In fact, its a direction error I would say. Nirupama and Viz speak Iyengaar baashai, not Iyer baashai. ( Saattelaa? is typical ), So her God needs to be Vishnu. Thumbikkai Alwar @ Pillayaar is much down in priority for Iyengars.
Other few points I got in my 4th viewing yesterday ( Hyderabad is Heaven ) SPOILER ALERT
# Poppy flowers being shown outside Tufiq's residence
# Amitabh Bachan Hindi movie poster in the climax duel between kamal and Rahul Bose ( Part 2 stuff in Mumbai slums ?? )
# Kamal saying Heyyyyy on seeing Deepak along with Niru , interrupting to look at some items dropping onto the floor, and then again continuing the Heyyyyyy. ( Shit man ...... What a marvellous actor the guy is ..... ok ok .... ellarukkum therinchathu thaan )
# The best exampke for faraday shield is microwave owen. We have it in my department MRI scan machines too. I tried placing my cellphone covered by our micrwave and it went out of coverage. Got a bashing from my wife for meddling with the owen.

Yes, he can afford to, now. JJ made sure Kamal loses this weekend's collections too. If it is a big hit in NI and as NI artistes will also get to see the movie now, with their/media's increased support (as nothing anti-community), he can come back and have a stronger say here as to what the fringe groups' real problem is when their own Muslim brothers in rest of the country have no problem with it. It would/should be them having to convince Kamal, and not the other way around. 9 mins cut is undeserving. 3-4 scenes sound muted, or cut, can be ok. Originally Posted by Lat Sar
Whether he agrees tomorrow or even Monday, to edit, re-censor, plan theatres and releasing the movie will need about 1-2 days time. Till then, let Kadal and David run
As told earlier, Kamal fans must make it a BB whenever it releases. That is all that needs to be done, to defeat JJ/TN Govt/fringe groups' objective.

A good sign at BO in NI
B.O. update: 'Vishwaroop' improves slightly, 'David' dismal
By Taran Adarsh, February 1, 2013 - 17:36 IST
http://images.bollywoodhungama.com/i...vishwaroop.jpgThe controversy surrounding the film didn't seem to help VISHWAROOP initially. For, the Hindi version of the film opened to dull houses in the morning shows, although the occupancy was better than the remaining releases. However, the collections showed a marked improvement in the noon shows in some circuits, which is a positive sign. The fate of the well publicised DAVID was worse, with the film opening to dismal houses everywhere. The remaining Hindi releases, which were limited to a few shows at cineplexes, hardly found any takers.
Both VISHWAROOP and DAVID will have to show a miraculous jump over the weekend, if they need to sustain in the forthcoming days. However, VISHWAROOP has an edge over the new releases, as per initial trends.

Steven Pinkers book "The Better Angels of Our Nature: Why Violence Has Declined" gives detailed statistically relevant information on how a combination of rational + critical thinking in an age of reason and enlightenment is strongly correlated with the decline of violence - rationalism/ atheism can if you will be equated to a more open-minded blunt attack on DOGMA based on evidence or lack of it than otherwise - its a very good read !

Kamal has obviously taken such references and incorporated the same in VR - (so why the hell are these muslim grps complaining ??)
irrational thinking = nam noi
cure for the disease = anbu

Vikatan:
Atheism and Rationalism are universal. Periyaarism is regional one! The third one is somewhat different. I believe Kamal is a rationalist, even if he claims himself as a "periyaarist" (I am not sure he does), he only means that he is a rationalist.

Let me quote Softsword again for you, he put it better than I can
but u see it as, they call themselves rationalists just becos they are atheists...
i think most of them understand both are different traits...
or to put it simple, rationalitst -> atheists and not atheists -> rationalists...

‘Vishwaroop’ review: Kamal Haasan, Rahul Bose dazzle in spy-thriller
http://zns.india.com/images/spacer.gif
When the film opens with Nirupama (played by debutant Pooja Kumar) discussing her sex life with her friend, you will be left to wonder if Kamal Haasan’s magnum opus has got anything to do with action! It looks far from being a spy-thriller. Nirupama, an ambitious girl with a doctorate in nuclear oncology gets married to a much older ‘effeminate’ Kathak exponent Vishwanath (played by Kamal Haasan) on her uncle’s (played by Shekhar Kapur) behest and to get a green card for US citizenship.
However, she does refrain from indulging in adultery with her super rich handsome boss Deepak (played by Samrat Chakrabarti), who keeps hitting on her time and again. Her conscience doesn’t let her cheat on her husband, though she does get annoyed with him for not being the man of her desires.
Despite the fact that she doesn’t share a typical marital relationship with her husband, she does begin to feel attached to him. And hence, in order to keep a check on Viz (Vishwanath), she hires a detective, who updates her about her husband’s activities when she is away at work.
Little does she know that her suspicion will land her in deep trouble, and might even prove fatal for her!
‘Vishwaroop’ has an ensemble cast that includes power house of talent Rahul Bose. The super talented actor plays Omar, an Al-Qaeda jihadi who is fluent in Pushto, Arabic, Hindi and English. Omar masterminds a deadly cesium attack on New York. He, along with his associate Salim (played by Jaideep Ahlawat), conspires an attack against the US forces in a war-ravaged Afghanistan. The master-network of crime has already been responsible for holding some Americans captive in their hide-outs. They also have a large number of associates, including a group of opium traders.
The film is very much “Hollywood-like” in terms of its presentation. The framing, the picturisation and the cinematography are par excellence. Kudos to Kamal Haasan for coming up with such a brilliant concept and executing it stylishly. Portraying terrorism on screen isn’t an easy job. And to do it with élan and sensibility does need wisdom. The veteran actor is indeed bestowed with all of it; otherwise a film like ‘Vishwaroop’ couldn’t have taken birth.
With the film, Haasan has given a visual reference to the dreadful face of terrorism, its consequences and its impact on innocent lives. It also throws light on how young minds are molded to best suit their mission and the reckless leaning behind turning immature minds into jihadis. As a cinematic piece, ‘Vishwaroop’ comes across as a magnificent piece of art build over in-depth analysis, deep thinking and quality research work.
The story is based in the US and Afghanistan and the locations couldn’t have been made to look more real. The art director does need a pat on his back for skillfully constructing Afghanistan in Chennai. The sets look incredibly real. Even the costume designer has done a fabulous job for making the artists look close to real life terrorists!
Sanu Varghese has made the most of his cinematography skills and pulled off a stunner.
Foreign actors have also done a commendable job and have given the film all that it needed to look close to real.
Coming to the performances, Pooja Kumar looks promising. She is spontaneous and has tremendous screen presence. Even Andrea Jeremiah as Ashmita (who plays Kamal Haasan’s Kathak disciple) looks impressive. And needless to say, ace filmmaker Shekhar Kapur not only knows how to make his actors perform, but also knows how to deliver a performance worthy of applause. Jaideep Ahlawat’s performance as Salim will leave an indelible impact and Rahul Bose’s work is worth a million pounds. He is devastatingly good as the bad boy in the film. And last but not the least, Kamal blooms and spreads his fragrance around. Not that the world was unaware of his caliber, but ‘Vishwaroop’ will amplify his credibility manifold not just as an actor but also as a filmmaker.
The film, at certain junctures does look a bit of a drag and is relatively slow paced (considering most films these days have great velocity). And the disturbing action sequences (though acceptable) justify the disclaimer at the beginning of the film that reads that people with a frail heart should avoid watching the action sequences.
Despite certain glitches, the film has all the required ingredients of a super hit film.
Highly recommended.

Watched,liked.
But lot of mixed thoughts and movie is like slow poison.
Can't say why but I want to watch it again.
It's not an adrenaline pumping,racy thriller.In fact there is a distinct lack of drama scattered over the movie.The Afghan episode seemed stretched a bit,felt little restless.The film as such does not have a climax,will get closure only in Part 2.Hence an abrupt incomplete feeling lingers when u walk out of the theatre.
Action choreography and Art direction-outstanding
There are many deft touches all over the movie and actor Kamal is in great form.
The intro dance
The first action block replayed in slow-mo from Pooja's POV-Wow.
An intelligent woman character and would say a good choice of actress.
And Pooja kumar-beautiful girl and well enacted.Some of her expressions were very good.
Andrea I guess will have more to do in Part 2 but she and the rest of the cast did very well.
A pat on the back for Rahul Bose.
Did not find the music intrusive or out of place,so guess SEL have done well.
There are some KH brand of making fun of Hindu beliefs in the dialouges but I actually for once enjoyed the fun.
A lot of humour sprinkled here and there which has to be caught.
And a word about the audience at INOX,they were so silent that if this was a FDFS,I would not have known if this is a hit or a flop
Overall this is no great film but still only Kamal possible.
Reiterate that part 2 is a must for me to get closure on this movie.
PS:The VR is an anti-Tamil-muslim-movie sentiment is a big joke.

Kamal said Andrea has more to do in the 2nd part, at Singapore IIFA awards Function itself.
And that 1st action scene (Spoiler)
Start. The act he did before the transformation scene, asks to untie his hand. once done, he too weakly bows slowly and starts praying "allaahu akbar" with blood in his mouth, his pray will be in crying tone, same time, loud! it was like crying loud of helplessnes and out of pity! That small moment which barely lasts for some, say 10 seconds?, impacted me too much and slightly மென்னியை அடைச்சுது! I don't know its world class acting or so and all, but surely kamal only fossible! Man what an impactful ferfaamans in very short period!!! But the reason why NOT EVEN ONE PERSON mentions this is, everybody forgets this becos of the Jet speed Action (which almost everyone expects initutionally!) End

1) At the movie beginning or/and end, add a note that reads "Not all Muslims are terrorists, and not all terrorists are Muslims."
2) When the movie has had a peaceful run in all other states (UP and entire NI) and one houseful day in Muslim-dominated Malaysia, all with +ve reviews and confirming nothing anti-Islam in it, why do these Muslims groups in TN alone want it to be cut? In other words, keeping aside politics, how/why are they any different from Kerala or world Muslim brothers? This is something Kamal has to ask them straight (if he hasn't already) and tell them how shameful it is for the country..as he says he has had good talks with them.
If those fringe groups/JJ/TN Govt cannot be convinced with the above two, in future, no genuine reason is going to convince them for any other movie(s).

அதை சொல்வதற்கு முன் கடந்த சில வாரங்களுக்கு முன் கமலுக்கு நேர்ந்த சிக்கல் பற்றி சொல்லியாக வேண்டும். விஸ்வரூபம் சிக்கலில் இருக்கிறது. படம் வருமா, வராதா என்றெல்லாம் ஐயங்கள் எழுந்தபோது, அவரை நம்பி பணத்தை போட்டவர்கள் அதை எப்படியாவது மீட்டாக வேண்டும் என்ற துடிக்க ஆரம்பித்தார்களாம். கோடம்பாக்கத்தின் மிக முக்கியமான தலைகளில் சிலர் பணம் கொடுத்தவர்கள் சார்பாக கமலை சந்தித்தார்கள். மிக நெருக்கடியான சந்திப்பு அது.
உங்களை நம்பி பணம் போட்டவர்கள் அது மீண்டும் கைக்கு வருமா என்று சந்தேகப்படுகிறார்கள். எனவே உங்கள் சொத்துக்களை நீங்கள் அவருக்கு அடகாக தர வேண்டும் என்று துவங்கியதாம் அந்த பேச்சுவார்த்தை. ஆரம்பத்தில் வேறு சில திட்டங்கள் இதற்கு பதிலாக பேச்ப்பட்டு எதுவும் ஏற்றுக் கொள்ள இயலாத நேரத்தில் கமல் கூறிய வார்த்தைகள்தான் இந்த கட்டுரையின் அதிக முக்கியமான பகுதி.
நான் உங்கள் பணத்தை ஏமாத்திட்டு போயிருவேன்னு நினைக்க வேண்டாம். அடுத்து ஹாலிட்டில் இரண்டு படங்கள் பண்ணப் போறேன். ஒண்ணு நான் நடிக்கிற படம். இன்னொன்று நான் இயக்குகிற படம். இதற்காக எனக்கு பேசப்பட்டிருக்கும் சம்பளம் சாதாரணமானதல்ல. என்னை நம்புங்கள் என்றாராம். இதை உறுதிசெய்யும் விதத்தில் அவர் எடுத்துப்போட்ட டாகுமெண்டுகளை பார்த்து அசந்தே போனார்களாம் இந்த பஞ்சாயத்து பேர்வழிகள்.
கடந்த சில மாதங்களுக்கு முன் ஹாலிவுட்டிலிருந்து ஒரு இயக்குனர் வந்து கமலுடன் பேசிவிட்டு போனாரல்லவா? அவருக்கு விஸ்வரூபம் படத்தையும் அப்போது திரையிட்டு காண்பித்தார் கமல். படத்தை பார்த்துவிட்டு பாராட்டிய அந்த ஹாலிவுட் இயக்குனர், கமல் ஹாலிவுட்டில் வந்து படங்களில் நடிக்க வேண்டும் என்றெல்லாம் தன் விருப்பத்தை தெரிவித்திருந்தார். அந்த புகழ்பெற்ற இயக்குனர்தான் இப்போது கமல் நடிக்கும் ஒரு படத்தை ஹாலிவுட்டில் இயக்கப்போகிறவர். இப்படி ஒரு அரிய தகவல் கோடம்பாக்கத்தில் உலவி வருகிறது.
அதுமட்டுமல்ல, பெயர் சொல்ல விரும்பாத சில முக்கியஸ்தர்கள் நம்மிடம் சொன்ன தகவல் இது. கமல் நடித்து வெளிவந்த அபூர்வ சகோதரர்கள் திரைப்படத்தை அவ்வளவு எளிதில் யாராலும் மறக்க முடியாது. அதில் குள்ள அப்புவாக நடித்திருப்பார் அவர். படம் முழுக்க அவரால் எப்படி நடிக்க முடிந்தது என்ற ரகசியத்தை அப்படத்தின் வெற்றிவிழாவில் அறிவிப்பதாக கூறினார்கள். ஆனால் அதை இன்று வரை யாரும் வெளியிடவே இல்லை.
அப்படி ஒரு ஆர்வத்தை இன்னமும் மக்களிடத்தில் தக்க வைத்திருக்கும் கமல், இந்த படத்தை ஹாலிவுட்டுக்கு கொண்டு போகிறாராம். கமலே இயக்க, அதில் குள்ள அப்புவாக அவரே நடிக்கிறார் என்றும் கூறுகிறார்கள் அவர்கள்.
இந்த சாதனைகளை அவர் சென்னையில் இருந்து கொண்டே செய்ய முடியாதல்லவா? அதற்காகதான் இந்த நாடு தழுவிய கோபம். எப்படியும் இரணடு வருடங்கள் அமெரிக்காவில் தங்கியிருக்க போகிறார் கமல். போகிற நேரத்தில் புன்னகையோடு அவரை அனுப்பி வைக்காத தமிழகம் அவர் ஹாலிவுட் கலைஞனாக உலகமே போற்ற தலைநிமிர்ந்து நிற்கும் போதும் இப்படிதான் இருக்குமா?
சென்று வா மகனே.... வென்று வா!

HOW TRUE! A VERY REVEALING MOMENT
http://economictimes.indiatimes.com/...w/18297975.cms
Kamal Haasan: The celluloid star who shuns theatrics
CHENNAI: When thousands of fans converged at his Eldams Road residence after he threatened to quit the country in search of a place with more creative liberty following the ban on his film Vishwaroopam, the unfolding events at his house offered revealing insights into the personality of Kamal Haasan.
Faced with financial ruin because of a 15-day state government ban on his mega-budget film — it reportedly cost Rs 95 crore to make — most other actors would have been tempted to rouse the crowds further. After all, movie stars, especially in the south, are used to mouthing their 'punch dialogues' even in real life.
But not Haasan — he wanted his fans to disperse quietly and not block the traffic. He told them that while he was touched by their love, Vishwaroopam was just a film and they should never indulge in any kind of violence. "There is no need for this issue (the ban on Vishwaroopam) to become a public agitation. This is just a cinema and I am just an actor."
From any other actor it would have sounded hollow, but Haasan — the first Tamil actor to convert all his fan clubs into welfare organisations — has always prided himself on being a model citizen; following the law is almost a religion for him. Perhaps, the fact that his father and two elder brothers are lawyers had something to do with it.
Haasan, 58, is also one of the very few actors of his generation in Tamil cinema who have managed to stay away from politics, instead focusing on pushing the boundaries of his art. He first faced the camera more than 50 years ago as a child actor in Kalathur Kannammaand went on to act in a handful of films with stalwarts such as MG Ramachandran and Sivaji Ganesan, before being forced to take a break. The four-time National Award winning actor wanted to become a film director.
'Haasan has Lived His Life for Cinema'
Haasan, who calls himself a rationalist, returned to the industry as a film technician doing bit parts. But it was his performance in the 1975 drama Apoorva Raagangal - for which he also won his first Filmfare award in Tamil - directed by his mentor K Balachander that made people sit up and take notice.
Apoorva Raagangal is also known as the debut film of bus conductor-turned-actor Sivajirao Gaekwad, better known now by his screen name Rajinikanth. Haasan and Rajinikanth soon became fast friends and went to act together in more than a dozen films, till they realised they would earn more if they acted separately.
While Rajinikanth became popular for his quirky mannerisms, Haasan quickly earned a reputation for being a perfectionist. "During the shooting of Avargal, I was sitting outside when K Balachander noticed this and got angry. He sent word for me to return to the set and asked me, 'Did you go outside to smoke? Kamal is acting; observe him. Only then will your acting get even better'," Rajinikanth would recall many years later.
Born in a family of professionals, Haasan, a school dropout, has confessed that he needed to make up by reading numerous books what he missed out by way of a formal education. Perhaps, it is this need for acceptance as an intellectual that makes him speak Tamil in a very pure form and English with an increasingly pronounced American accent.
Even when asked for his opinion on news developments, he rarely gives a boring answer. "The girl is my sister and it is my brother who has done it," the twice-divorced Haasan said on the Delhi gangrape incident recently.
Haasan's search for perfection made him a keen student of all aspects of film-making, like make-up and cinematography. His improvisations and contribution in the make-up department made Nayakan - listed among the top 100 films of all time by Time magazine - what it is, said director Mani Ratnam.
"A lot of people talk about cinema, but I can vouch and say that he (Haasan) is one person who has lived his entire life for cinema," said actor-turned-politician Kushboo Sundar. "He likes every shot and scene to be perfect and does not mind doing it all over again if it's not right."
Haasan, who has two daughters - one of them actress Shruti, is not new to controversies. His film Thevar Magan was criticised as being favourable to a particular caste. He faced protests once again with the earlier title of his film Virumandi. But the protests against his films have been increasing in frequency. Possibly why, the protests by certain Muslim groups against Vishwaroopam turned out to be the last straw, prompting him to declare: "If it happens again, I will leave the country."

"Being a strong supporter of ruling coalition of Barisan Nasional, I request that the minister have a dialogue with the Indian Muslim movement and find an amicable solution and lift the ban as soon as possible," MIC Central Working Committee member K P Samy said.

Chandra, who has co-produced Vishwaroopam, said that after a first round of consultations, he was asked by protesting groups to make cuts adding upto nine minutes. But sources say Chandra Haasan told protesters that he is not technically or morally competent to make cuts, adding that the decision will be made by Kamal Haasan after he returns to Chennai.
The actor told NDTV on Thursday, "I don't think the film will have to be chopped. I will talk to my Muslim brothers."

Hurrey..Watched vishwaroop in gangtok. Fabulous, mindblowing movie. I could feel the hardwork sir has put behind every frame. “Transformation scene” will be remembered by every viewer for many days to come. He purposely underplayed which is the main plus. Cast selection is superb. Every one lived their part (incl pigeons!) . Ufortunately due to my limited command over hindi , I could not understand many dialogues espl when they speak pashtun the subtitle was in hindi and was irritating. On the downside, the movie was bit dragging at places which could have been trimmed a bit say 20 minutes. Sir excelled in all aspect and I felt proud to be a kamal fan.

USA:
As we reported earlier Kamal hassan's Vishwaroopam is getting a raving reception across the globe and especially its doing a excellent business in USA. As per trade reports from the reported screens the Tamil version of film grossed around 3.64 crores and the Telugu version grossed 54 Lakhs, sources adds that that from the non reported screens the film would have easily grossed 5cr(1 million $) in USA Box office which is rare for a Tamil film .As of now only Endhiran has did such a excellent performance, the film was declared as a blockbuster in USA BO report.
North:
Meantime the Hindi version of Vishwaroop is slowly picking up and did a good performance comparing to the other release like David, the initial trade reports suggests that the film will be a decent hit in Bollywood and will be a highest grosser for a bilingual film.
Kerala:
The film was already declared as super hit and people from Tamil nadu are rushing to Kerala theaters. The film is getting 80 - 90 % theater occupancy even in week days which is very rare for a Tamil film, the film broke the ticket sales of Kamal's previous best Dasavatharam.
Andhra Pradesh:
Vishwaroopam's Telugu version is getting a mixed response, The film was declared as a hit in "A" centres where the B and C centres reported with average to above average collection.
UK:
The film grossed more than one crore in Box office and going strong at the box office, trade reports suggests that the film will likely break the actor's previous best Dasavatharam.
Overall the film doing a great business and we are expecting the same in Tamilnadu once all the issues are amicably settled.

Onto Vishwaroop
"We have heard there are scenes that are highly objectionable. We will file a PIL in Bombay High Court if these are not cut out," Maulana Burhanuddin Qasmi, director of Markazul Maarif, said.No wonder.The socio-religious organisation provides modern English education through madrassas.
The groups are also likely to protest Race 2 over some Quranic verses printed on posters of the film in Kolkata.

Vishwaroopam - a humble movie-lovers take!
Kamal the director-cum-screenplay writer reigns supreme, despite deliberately shying away from an indepth exploration of the psyche of the antagonist in the context of the afghan socio-political backdrop of 2-3 decades - but there is no attempt to create a classic - and yet, what he could have easily accomplished with a sharply nuanced approach at the political underpinnings of the afghan situation, he accomplishes by the sheer use of a screenplay with fireworks all over!
I would call this an actioner screenplay delight, with liberal use of the hitchcockian idiom - everyone knows how the plot is likely to unfold towards the second half, with the major surprises taken care of in the first 45 min - and yet the 75% full hall (Sakala wud be happy to learn that there was a liberal mix of family, children, as well as groups of singles) were glued to their seats in spite of most of them in the capacity to easily second guess the rest of the film.
That is where Kamal has succeeded in a Hitchcockian way (you know what the plot is and may even know how it will unfold, and yet you DONT know how the director will do it!) - I was particularly impressed by a few sequences in the last 35 min of the film, in which there is no background score, just the natural sound(s) of footsteps, ppl talking in the streets, and the characters are talking and yet without the fanfare of drama/melodrama, its engaging! wow!
Pooja's performance right at the end, just before we are told there is likely to be a sequel - entirely compensates for her character's, just a tad bit (nowhere as bad as Asin's character in DASA) annoying wide-eyed utterances earlier on.
Kamal completely underplays, except when he totally plays to the gallery during the first stunt scene - a la Aboorva Sago's father Kamal's fight in captivity against Nagesh's goons - I found the use of 'yaarendru' theme not fitting enough - (IR would have slapped this peach of a scene with a stunning overture (as he did in Aboorva!) - and a few other occasions.
I am glad that the best song 'unnai kaanadha' is tightly knit into the screenplay - while the others didnt register, since the afghan part of the plot was so well-done the songs became secondary (if not unnecessary).
Did anyone notice the key role played by the woman portraying the doctor from 'medicins sans frontier' ?!
That was a huge nod from Kamal to an absolutely wonderful organisation 'doctors without borders', which consists of medical professionals who serve in troubled areas around the world without a care for religion, ethnicity, race, creed, gender whatsoever - I salute Kamal for bringing attention to the Indian audiences of this organisation - as someone who volunteers regularly with the International Red Cross and Firefighters, I knew abt the stellar work done by this group and felt a warm glow in my heart seeing one of the many important characters in the film representing 'medicins sans frontier' - btw, 'MSF' is primarily comprised of atheist, rationalist, humanists! oh Kamal!
War victims have no boundaries - when wars do happen, they are like man-made tsunamis - and the doctor dies (a spoiler here but necessary), and given MSF's composition, she was most likely an atheist - thus jihadis (believers) as well as atheist doctors from MFS die - indha subtext ellaam Jawaharullah and co makkal kannukku theriyaadhu ! aanaa, padathhula ulla characters thozhugai panradha mattum nollu nosukkunnu complain panna vendiyadhu - ivangala paatthaa yenakku sirippu thaan varudhu - my pity for Kamal's situation has increased manifold times after watching the film.
the 'oonjal' scene is the 2013 equivalent of the 1993 'daughter drawing her fathers picture on the wall of the brothel' scene in Mahanadhi ! in contrast there is no drama, no crying, but the effect is still the same - i had a lump in my throat (which was short-lived as bombs began flying all over again!).
There are several such fleeting moments of brilliance throughout - I mean its a war-torn region, you gotta have bombs exploding, and yet, when there is time to focus on the humans, Kamal infuses as much life/imagery into those scenes as only he could/can ! take this as a sample: as Kamal's character walks along the street, he shoots a long look at a streetside shop in which the bullets strung and rifles stacked casually for sale - with a kid in the middle of it playing with his locket - even if there were no action scenes, involving helicopters and bombs going off everywhere, that passing glance of a scene should suffice! I can actually see the words something along these lines - on the script - '..innocence sat easy amidst strings of bullets, as paradise awaited with its doors propped open by the deadly guns..' !
more later...
btw, first time in years, I lost my cool in a hall - a family sitting behind me had a kid noisily asking for popcorn in the first half, until i turned around and gave an Omar-like stare! the guy sitting next to me was busy texting when the scenes were unfolding - absolute jack*ss.
and the theatre as*holes charged $12 for a pathetic hall and a sound system from the times of N S Krishnan

I had not noticed this before.
VISHWAROOPAM [Tamil]: In its opening weekend, the film has collected $ 6,34,912 [Rs. 3.43 crores] on 44 screens, with the per screen average working out to $14,430.
14,430!!!!! Compare it with that of Race2 - $ 5,783. I think this is a record for any Indian movie. How much was the per screen average of Enthiran in the 1st week?

Calling themselves the Penang Kamal Haasan Fans Club, they held a 20-minute protest outside the Veenai Odeon cinema hall .
The club president S Mahendran said the ban was against freedom of artistic expression.
He pointed out the Home Ministry was inconsistent in protecting religious sensitivities of various communities in the country as it did not ban Love Guru, which hurt Hindu sentiments, and The Da Vinci Code, which allegedly questioned the fundamental myth of Christianity.
It was banned in Indian state of Tamil Nadu, Malaysia, Sri Lanka and Singapore after first day screening on Jan 24 on grounds of “Muslim religious sensitivities.”
Singapore however, has since lifted its ban.
Mahendran alleged that Kamal Haasan had been victim of a political conspiracy for allegedly not selling the television rights for Vishwaroopam to a television station linked to a powerful politician in Tamil Nadu.
He said the ministry ban based on petitions submitted by two Muslim groups was unacceptable after the censorship had approved its screening.
“Will the minister ban Umno if we submit a memorandum alleging that the party was racist?” he said.
Mahendran said those were fortunate to watch the movie on the first day it was shown
have insisted that the movie illustrated the reality of international terrorism and its operations.
PKR state vice-chairman and Batu Uban assemblyman S Raveentharan, who took part in the protest, said it was illogical for the Home Ministry to ban the movie when it has been publicly available via internet and pirated disc.
Moreover, he pointed many Tamil movie fans from Malaysia were crossing the Johor Causeway to watch the movie in Singapore.

This is the latest here...Kuala Lumpur: Malaysian government will hold a meeting with distributor of Tamil film Vishwaroopam directed by legendary actor Kamal Hassan to find a solution to lift the ban on it.
"The meeting should take place sometime next week and we need time to review and find a proper solution to the matter," Home Minister Hishammuddin Hussein said.
"The owner of the distribution company is a close friend of mine and I have no doubts that we will be able to come up with an amicable solution to the problem," he told reporters here.
He said that there was no need for certain parties to become upset as the matter was still being discussed.
The Film Censorship Board of Malaysia had initially approved Viswaroopam and Lotus Fivestar AV started screening the movie on January 24. The approval, however, was withdrawn the next day following a Home Ministry directive.
The board's control and enforcement division secretary Razak Derahman said the movie was suspended on the minister's orders. Tamil films have a huge fan following among the ethnic Indian Tamils here.
Malaysian Indian Congress (MIC), the country's largest ethnic Indian political party had yesterday appealed to the Home Ministry to talk to local Muslim groups in the country over the issue.

சாரு நிவேதிதா அவர்களின் பார்வையில் விஸ்வரூபம்....
விஸ்வரூபம் பற்றி எழுத வேண்டாம் என்று இருந்தேன். அதற்குப் பல காரணங்கள். கஷ்டத்தில் இருப்பவரை மேலும் கஷ்டப்படுத்தக் கூடாது என்ற நல்லெண்ணமும் ஒரு காரணம். இன்னொரு காரணம், நான் இப்போது சினிமாத் துறையில் உள்ளே இருக்கிறேன். அதனால் நான் ஏதாவது சொல்லி வைத்து அது என்னோடு சம்பந்தப்பட்டிருப்பவர்களை எந்த விதத்திலும் பாதித்து விடக் கூடாது. என்னை எதிரியாக நினைப்பவர்கள் அங்கே மிகவும் அதிகம். ஆனால் இதையெல்லாம் மீறி இப்போது எழுதியே ஆக வேண்டும் என்ற எண்ணம் தோன்றிக் கொண்டே இருக்கிறது.
ஹே ராம், உன்னைப் போல் ஒருவன் என்ற இரண்டு படங்களுக்கும் நான் உயிர்மையில் எழுதியுள்ள விமர்சனங்களே விஸ்வரூபம் படத்துக்கும் பொருந்தும். தெரிந்தோ தெரியாமலோ அறிந்தோ அறியாமலோ கமல்ஹாசனின் படங்களில் இஸ்லாமிய விரோதப் போக்கு மிக மோசமாக வெளிப்பட்டுக் கொண்டே இருக்கிறது. இதை நான் விரிவாக என் மதிப்புரைகளில் உயிர்மையில் எழுதியிருக்கிறேன். விஸ்வரூபத்தில் அந்த இஸ்லாமிய விரோதம் உச்சக் கட்டத்தில் உள்ளது. நான் ஆஃப்கானிஸ்தானைப் பற்றித்தானே எடுத்தேன் என்பதெல்லாம் வாதம் ஆகாது. அல் குரானின் வசனங்களைச் சொல்லிக் கொண்டே கொலை செய்கிறார்கள் என்றால் இந்தப் படத்தைப் பார்க்கும் non muslims-க்கு என்ன தோன்றும்? அல்லாஹ் அக்பர் என்று சொல்லிக் கொண்டே குண்டு வெடிக்கிறார்கள் என்றால் உங்கள் பக்கத்து வீட்டுக்காரரும் அல்லாஹ் அக்பர் என்று சொல்லும் போது உங்களுக்கு என்ன தோன்றும்? இது ஆஃப்கனிஸ்தானில் நடக்கிறது என்றால் அதை ஏன் தமிழில் வெளியிடுகிறீர்கள்? அல்லாஹ் அக்பர் என்றால் இறைவனே பெரியவன் என்று பொருள். ஆனால் அல்லாஹ் அக்பர் என்று சொல்லிக் கொண்டே இந்தப் படத்தில் குண்டு போடுகிறார்கள் என்றால் அது பாமர சினிமாவை மட்டுமே பார்த்து வெறும் பாமர ரசனையை மட்டுமே வளர்த்துக் கொண்ட பாமர ரசிகனுக்கு என்ன பொருளைத் தரும்? கருத்துச் சுதந்திரம் என்றால் என்ன? ஒரு மதத்தை அவமானப்படுத்துவதும், கொலைகாரர்களாகவும் பயங்கரவாதிகளாகவும் சித்தரிப்பதும்தான் கருத்துச் சுதந்திரம் என்றால் அதைத் தடை செய்வதும் சரிதான். கருத்துச் சுதந்திரத்தை விட மனித உயிர்கள் உயர்வானவை. பொறுப்பு (Responsibility) இல்லாத கருத்துச் சுதந்திரம் மனித குலத்துக்கே விரோதமானது. அதற்கும் கலைக்கும் சம்பந்தம் கிடையாது.
இதற்கு மேல் நான் எதுவும் எழுத விரும்பவில்லை. ஒரு எழுத்தாளன் என்பவன் கூடு விட்டுக் கூடு பாய்பவனாக இருக்க வேண்டும் என்று பலமுறை நான் சொல்லி இருக்கிறேன். நான் ஒரு ஆணாக இருந்தாலும் ஒரு பெண்ணைப் பற்றி எழுதினால் நான் பெண்ணாக மாறியாக வேண்டும். அந்தப்படியே விஸ்வரூபத்தை நான் ஒரு இஸ்லாமியனாகவே பார்த்தேன். அப்படிப் பார்த்த போது அது என்னை மிகவும் கேவலப்படுத்தியது. வார்த்தைகளால் விளக்க முடியாத அளவுக்கு இஸ்லாத்தின் மீது வெறுப்பை அள்ளி வீசியது. சிறு குழந்தைகள் கூட கை விரல்களால் துப்பாக்கி பிடித்தபடி சுடுகிறார்கள் படத்தில். ஆனால் அமெரிக்கா ஈராக்கையும் ஆஃப்கனிஸ்தானையும் சுடுகாடு ஆக்கியது பற்றி விஸ்வரூபத்தில் எதுவுமே இல்லை. ஏதோ அமெரிக்க ஏஜண்ட் எடுத்தது போல் இருக்கிறது. ஆஃப்கனிஸ்தானில் கை இழந்த கால் இழந்த குழந்தைகள் ஆயிரக் கணக்கான பேர் இருக்கிறார்கள். அமெரிக்க குண்டு வீச்சினால் என் ஐந்து வயது குழந்தைக்கு கை கால் போனால் என் மனநிலை எப்படி இருக்கும்? நினைத்துப் பாருங்கள். ஆஃப்கனிலும் ஈராக்கிலும் அப்படி உடல் உறுப்புகளை இழந்த குழந்தைகள் ஆயிரக் கணக்கானோர்.
விஸ்வரூபத்தைப் போல் இதுவரை ஹாலிவுட்டில் 50 கமர்ஷியல் படங்கள் வெளியாகி உள்ளன. ஒரு வியாபார மசாலா சினிமாவை இங்கே ஏதோ ஒரு மகத்தான கலைப் படைப்பைப் போல் பேசிக் கொண்டிருக்கிறார்கள்.
முஸ்லீம்களை அவமதித்து, அவர்களை பயங்கரவாதிகளைப் போல் சித்தரித்துப் படம் எடுத்து விட்டு நான் தெருவுக்கு வந்து விடுவேன், நாட்டை விட்டுப் போய் விடுவேன் என்று சொல்வதெல்லாம் மிக மிகக் கீழ்மையான தந்திரம். மகாநதி போன்ற ஒரு படத்தைக் கொடுத்த ஒருவர் இப்படி மாறிப் போனது எனக்கு வருத்தத்தை அளிக்கிறது…

LUCKNOW/NEW DELHI/MUMBAI: Barring stray protests by some Muslim organisations, Kamal Haasan’s film Vishwaroopam, titled Vishwaroop in Hindi opened on a peaceful note in cinema halls and multiplexes of Uttar Pradesh today.
UP IG (law and order) B P Singh said the screening of the film across the state was by and large peaceful. He said there were no major protests and those which took place were peaceful.
To compound the issue, confusing signals had come from the Samajwadi Party. Chief Minister Akhilesh Yadav had avoided giving a direct response on the banning of the film by maintaining that any decision will be taken only after viewing the film.
Vishwaroop has been given three to four shows per day in the 18 odd screens that DT Cinemas have in Delhi and there have been no disruptions in the screenings.
In Mumbai and parts of Maharashtra, Vishwaroop sailed through smoothly irrespective of threat by some Muslim organisations to move Bombay High Court to stop the release until Haasan deletes the scenes allegedly derogatory to Islam.
Haasan, who was in Mumbai yesterday to promote the movie said: “Why should I make a film, which is meant to entertain and engage, to show Muslims and Islam in poor light.” He thanked the movie fraternity in Mumbai for backing him. The film is running in Karnataka, Kerala and Andhara Pradesh.

For VR2, Kamal should release in DTH first followed by Hindi/Telugu in all other states and Tamil version worldwide, except Taliban Nadu.
After a week, he should release Tamil version in Taliban Nadu. That way, atleast he would have made 50+Cr by that time. and fringe groups will have to convince him for cuts, and not the other way around as it is now.

கமலின் விஸ்வரூபம் படத்திற்கு ஏற்பட்ட பிரச்சனைகள் படிப்படியாக குறைந்து வருகின்றன. தமிழக தலைமை செயலர், இஸ்லாமிய கூட்டமைப்பின் பிரதிநிதிகள், கமல் ஆகியோருக்கிடையே நடந்த முத்தரப்பு பேச்சுவார்த்தையில் ஏற்பட்ட உடன்படிக்கையின்படி விஸ்வரூபம் படத்தில் 9 காட்சிகளை நீக்க கமல் சம்மதித்திருக்கிறாராம். தியேட்டர் அதிபர்கள், தமிழக அரசு, இஸ்லாமிய அமைப்புகள் ஆகியோருடன் பேச்சுவார்த்தை நடத்தி ஒருவழியாக பிரச்சனையிலிருந்து கமல் விடுபட வழி தெரிந்த போது மற்றுமொரு பிரச்சனை பூதாகரமாக வெடித்திருக்கிறது.
தமிழ்நாடு பிராமணார் சங்கத் தலைவர் இராமகிருஷ்ணன் இன்று மாலை சென்னை கமிஷனரை சந்தித்து விஸ்வரூபம் படத்தின் மீது புகார் ஒன்றை அளித்தார். விஸ்வரூபம் படத்தில் பிராமணர்களை இழிவுபடுத்தியிருப்பதாக அந்த குற்றச்சாட்டில் குறிப்பிடப்பட்டிருக்கிறது. இது குறித்து இராமகிருஷ்ணனிடம் பேசிய போது “விஸ்வரூபம் படத்தை அமெரிக்காவில் பார்த்த என் உறவினர் ஒருவர் அதிர்ச்சியடைந்து, தொடர்புகொண்டார். படத்தின் கதாநாயகி பிராமணப்பெண். அவருக்கு கமல் சிக்கன் சமைத்துக்கொடுப்பதுபோல் காட்சி வருகிறது. இது எங்களின் உணர்வை புண்படுத்துகிறது.
கமல் முற்போக்கு வாதி, அறிவுஜிவி என்று சொல்லிக்கொண்டு மடத்தனமான வேலைகளில்தான் ஈடுபடுவார். அவரை நாங்கள் ஒருபோதும் பிராமணராக அங்கீகரித்தது கிடையாது. பூணூல் என்பது சொறிந்துகொள்வதற்கு வசதியாக இருக்கிறது என்று ஒருமுறை கமல் தெரிவித்திருந்தார். அப்படிப்பட்டவர் எப்படி பிராமணராக இருக்க முடியும். விஸ்வரூபம் படத்திற்கு ஏற்பட்டுள்ள பிரச்சனையை தீர்க்க அங்கே இங்கே சென்று முட்டுவதைவிட ஆழ்வார்ப் பேட்டையில் உள்ள ஆஞ்சேனர்ய் கோவிலுக்கு வந்து தேங்காய் உடைத்திருந்தால் விஸ்வரூபத்தின் தடைகள் உடைபட்டு போயிருக்கும்’’ என்று ஆவேசமாக கூறினார். பவிஸ்வரூபம் படத்திற்கு தடை வாங்கியே தீருவது என்ற முடிவில் இருக்கிறாராம் இராமகிருஷ்ணன்.

Article in recent thuglak
விஸ்வரூபம் – எதிர்ப்பு சரியா?
சுமார் 20 வருடங்களுக்கு முன்பு ஒரு சினிமா இயக்குனரை நான் பேட்டி கண்டேன். அப்போது அவரது இரண்டாவது படம் ரிலீஸாகி இருந்தது. முதல் படம் சூப்பர் ஹிட். அந்த சந்தோஷத்தில், உற்சாகத்தில் இரண்டாவது படம் எடுத்திருந்தார். ஆனால், அந்தப் படம் அட்டர் ஃபிளாப். முதல் படம் வெளியானதும் அவரை ஓஹோ என்று தூக்கிப் பிடித்த பத்திரிகைகள், இரண்டாவது படத்தைப் பற்றி கடும் விமரிசனங்களை வெளியிட்டு, அந்தப் படத்தின் தோல்விக்குத் தாங்களும் ஒரு காரணமாயின. இந்தச் சமயத்தில்தான் அவரை நான் பேட்டி காணச் சென்றிருந்தேன்.
“பத்திரிகைகள் சினிமா விமர்சனம் செய்ய வேண்டிய அவசியம் என்ன? நான் எடுக்கும் படத்தை ஓரிருவர் பார்த்து விட்டு, ‘இது அறுவை’ என்று விமர்சனம் எழுதி, அதை ஒரு பொதுக் கருத்தாக உருவாக்க முயல்வது என்ன நியாயம்? என் படத்தைப் பற்றி எழுத நீ யார்? மக்கள் நன்மைக்காக எழுதுகிறோம் என்றால், ஹார்லிக்ஸ், ப்ரூ பற்றியெல்லாம் எந்தப் பத்திரிகையாவது விமர்சனம் எழுதியதுண்டா? அல்லது இந்த ரியல் எஸ்டேட்டில் ப்ளாட் வாங்குவது தண்டம், இந்த சிகரெட் காட்டமாக இருக்கிறது, இந்த ப்ராண்ட் பீர் கசக்கிறது என்று எழுத வேண்டியதுதானே? அது மக்களுக்குச் செய்யும் நன்மைதானே?
“நான் என் படத்தில் ஒரு பத்திரிகையின் பெயரைச் சொல்லி, ‘இந்தப் பத்திரிகையைப் படிக்காதே; இது பெரிய புளுகு மூட்டை’ என்று சொன்னால் நீங்கள் சும்மா இருப்பீர்களா? அப்புறம் சினிமாவை மட்டும் உங்கள் இஷ்டத்திற்கு விமர்சனம் செய்ய உங்களுக்கு என்ன ரைட்ஸ் இருக்கு? இது பெரிய பிஸினஸ். முதலீடும் அதிகம். கொஞ்சம் உணர்ச்சி வசப்பட்டாலும் படத்திற்கு சிக்கல் வரும். வசூல் பாதிக்கும். தயாரிப்பாளர் நொடித்துப் போவார். இந்தப் பலவீனத்தைப் பயன்படுத்திதான், யார் வேண்டுமானாலும் சினிமாக்காரனை மிரட்ட முடிகிறது. சினிமாக்காரனும் பயந்து போய் கீழே இறங்கி வர வேண்டியுள்ளது” என்று சீறித் தள்ளினார் அந்த இயக்குனர்.
அவரது கோபம் என் மேல் இல்லையென்றாலும், பொதுவாக ஒரு சினிமாக்காரரின் விரக்தியை என்னிடம் கொட்டினார். அந்த நேரத்தில் அவரது கருத்தில் பெரிய நியாயம் இருந்ததாக எனக்குத் தோன்றவில்லை. ஆனால், சமீப காலமாக நடக்கும் சம்பவங்களைப் பார்க்கும்போது, அதில் ஓரளவு நியாயம் இருப்பதாகவே தோன்றுகிறது. சமீபத்தில் கமல்ஹாசனின் ‘விஸ்வரூபம்’ திரைப்படம் சர்ச்சைக்குள்ளாகியுள்ளது. ஒருபுறம் டி.டி.ஹெச்.சில் ரிலீஸ் ஆகலாமா, கூடாதா என்று சர்ச்சை நடந்த நிலையில், மறுபுறம் ‘இந்தப் படம் முஸ்லிம்களுக்கு எதிரான படமாகத் தெரிகிறது. படத்தை ரிலீஸ் செய்யும் முன் எங்களுக்குத் திரையிட்டுக் காட்ட வேண்டும். இல்லையேல் ‘விஸ்வரூபம்’ வெளியாகும் தியேட்டர்கள் முன்பாக ஆர்ப்பாட்டம் நடத்துவோம்’ என்று சில இஸ்லாமிய அமைப்புகள் மிரட்டல் விடுத்தன. இதையடுத்து கமல், பல இஸ்லாமிய அமைப்புகளுக்குப் படத்தைத் திரையிட்டுக் காட்டினார். ‘காட்சிகளை வெட்டினால் கூட போதாது. படத்தையே தடை செய்ய வேண்டும்’ என்று கொந்தளித்தன இஸ்லாமிய அமைப்புகள். இதனால், தமிழகத்தில் அந்தப் படத்தின் ரிலீஸ் தடை செய்யப்பட்டுள்ளது. கமலின் சார்பில் தடையை அகற்றக் கோரி வழக்கு தொடரப்பட்டுள்ளது.
இந்நிலையில், இப்பிரச்னை குறித்து திரையுலகினர் சிலரிடம் பேசினேன். “அந்தப் படம் சென்ஸாருக்குச் சென்று அனுமதிக்கப்பட்ட பின்னரே திரைக்கு வருகிறது. படம் ரிலீஸானதும் அதைப் பார்த்து விட்டு, அதன் பிறகுதான் யாரும் எந்த முடிவுக்கும் வர வேண்டும். ‘முன் கூட்டியே எனக்குப் படத்தைப் போட்டுக் காட்டு’ என்று மிரட்டுவது அராஜகம். இஸ்லாமிய அமைப்புகளுக்குப் பயந்து படத்தை அவர்களுக்கு முன்கூட்டியே போட்டுக் காட்டச் சொல்லி, மறைமுகமாக உத்திரவு வருகிறது. இது என்ன நியாயம்?” என்று கோபப்பட்டார் இயக்குனர் ஒருவர்.
அவரே மேலும் “விஜய் நடித்த ‘துப்பாக்கி’ படத்தின் குழுவினருக்கும், இதே போல் இஸ்லாமிய அமைப்புகளோடு பேச்சுவார்த்தை நடத்தும் சூழல் ஏற்படுத்தப் பட்டது . இப்படி இது தொடர்கதையாகும் சாத்தியம் ஏற்பட்டு விட்டது. சில லெட்டர் பேட் அமைப்புகள் எல்லாம் மிரட்டல் விடுக்கத் துவங்கி விட்டன. சொல்லப் போனால், இதுபோல் மிரட்டும் பல இயக்கங்களுக்கு, இஸ்லாமிய மக்களின் ஆதரவே கிடையாது. சும்மா ஒரு அமைப்பை ஏற்படுத்திக் கொண்டு, சினிமாக்காரர்களை மிரட்டிப் பேர் வாங்குவதிலும், சினிமாக்காரர்களைச் சந்திப்பதில் சந்தோஷம் கொள்வதிலும் சிலர் பொழுதைப் போக்க நினைக்கிறார்கள்.
“சென்ஸார் அனுமதிக்கிற படம் இவர்களுக்கு உடன்பாடானதாக இல்லை என்றால், சென்ஸார் அனுமதியை எதிர்த்து யாரும் கோர்ட்டுக்குப் போகலாம். அது தானே நியாயம்? அரசுக்கு நெருக்கடி கொடுத்து, படத்தையே தடை செய்ய வைப்பது நியாயமல்ல. இது தவறான முன் உதாரணமாகிக் கொண்டிருக்கிறது. சினிமாக்காரர்கள் ஒன்று கூடி கமலுக்குத் தங்கள் ஆதரவைத் தர வேண்டும். இல்லையென்றால், மதச் சங்கங்கள், ஜாதிச் சங்கங்கள், தொழிலாளர் அமைப்புகள்... என்று யார் வேண்டுமானாலும் ‘படத்தை எனக்குப் போட்டுக் காட்டி விட்டு ரிலீஸ் பண்ணு’ என்று மிரட்டக் கூடும். பிறகு படத்தைத் தடை செய்யக் கோரி அரசுக்கு நெருக்கடி தரக் கூடும்” என்று குறிப்பிட்டார்.

ஒரு உதவி இயக்குனரிடம் பேசிய போது, “குறிப்பிட்ட மதத்தை இழிவு செய்தாலோ, அவர்கள் நம்பிக்கையை அவதூறு செய்தாலோ சென்ஸாரே அதை அனுமதிக்காது. ஆனால், வில்லன்களை குறிப்பிட்ட மதத்துக்காரனாகவே காட்டக் கூடாது என்றால் என்ன நியாயம்? ‘தசாவதாரம்’ படத்தில் வில்லன் அமெரிக்கக்காரன். கிறிஸ்தவப் பெயர் கொண்டவன். உடனே கிறிஸ்தவர்கள் எல்லாம் கோபப்பட முடியுமா? அதுபோல் பாகிஸ்தான், ஆஃப்கன் வில்லன்கள் என்றால், அவர்களை இஸ்லாமியர்களாகத்தான் காட்ட வேண்டி வரும். அதற்காக, இஸ்லாமியரை அசிங்கப்படுத்தும் முயற்சி என்று அதை எடுத்துக் கொள்ளக் கூடாது.
“நாயகன் படத்தில் சிறுவன் கமலைக் காப்பாற்றி வளர்ப்பவர் முஸ்லிம் பெரியவர்தான். சமீபத்தில் வந்த ‘காஞ்சனா’ படத்தில், சிறுவன் சரத்குமாரைக் காப்பாற்றி வளர்ப்பவரும் ஒரு முஸ்லிம் பெரியவர்தான். இப்படி தமிழ் சினிமாக்கள் முஸ்லிம் மக்களை மரியாதையாகவே காட்டி வந்துள்ளன. பாகிஸ்தான் வில்லன்களைக் காட்டும் போது, அதைத் தங்களைக் காட்டுவதாகவே நினைத்துக் கொள்வதை முஸ்லிம் அமைப்புகள் கைவிட வேண்டும். அப்படிப் பார்த்தால் பெரும்பாலான படங்களில் காட்டப்படும் வில்லன்கள் எல்லாம் ஹிந்து கடவுள்களை வழிபடும் ஹிந்துக்களாகத்தான் காட்டப்படுகிறார்கள். அதற்கெல்லாம் போராட்டம் துவங்கினால் சினிமா தாங்கவே தாங்காது” என்றார்.
“இந்தியா மீதும் சரி, அமெரிக்கா உள்ளிட்ட கிறிஸ்தவ நாடுகள் மீதும் சரி. பயங்கரவாதிகள் படுபாதகச் செயல்களைச் செய்யும்போது, அவற்றைத் தங்கள் மதத்தின் பெயராலேயே செய்கிறார்கள். அதை மதத்திற்கான ‘புனிதப் போர் (ஜிகாத்)’ என்று அறிவிக்கிறார்கள். தாங்கள் செய்யும் கொலைகளை மதத்தின் பெயரால் செய்வதை, அவர்களே வீடியோ எடுத்து, தொலைக்காட்சிகளுக்கு அனுப்பி வைக்கிறார்கள். ஒரு விஸ்வரூபம் வராமல் போனால், அந்த உண்மையை உலகில் இருந்து அழித்துவிட முடியாது. சமீபத்தில் ஒரு பத்திரிகையில் ஒரு வாசகம் படித்தேன். ‘முஸ்லிம் மக்களில் பெரும்பாலோர் பயங்கரவாதிகள் இல்லை. ஆனால், பயங்கரவாதிகளில் பெரும்பாலோர் முஸ்லிம்களாக இருக்கிறார்கள்’ என்று. அது உண்மையில்லை என மறுக்க முடியாதே?
“கமல்ஹாசன் ‘அன்பே சிவம்’ படத்தில் நாத்திகனாக நடித்தார். அந்தப் படத்தில் வில்லனாக நடித்த நாஸர், நிமிடத்திற்கு நிமிடம் ‘சிவனே போற்றி சிவனே போற்றி’ என்று சொல்லிக் கொண்டே கொலை செய்யும் கொடூரனாய் இருப்பார். ஆனால், அதற்காக ஹிந்துக்கள் யாரும் போராடவில்லை. ‘அது ஒரு கேரக்டர். அவ்வளவுதான். சிவனை வழிபடும் எல்லா ஹிந்துக்களையும் கமல் குறிப்பிடவில்லை’ என்றுதான் எடுத்துக் கொண்டார்கள். அது போலவே, இஸ்லாமிய அமைப்புகளும், படத்தில் காட்டப்படும் சில கேரக்டர்கள், யாரோ ஒரு சிலரைத்தான் குறிப்பிடுகின்றன; ஒட்டு மொத்த முஸ்லிம்களை அல்ல என்று எடுத்துக் கொள்ளப் பழக வேண்டும். தொடர்ந்து இது போன்ற நெருக்கடிகளை அவர்கள் தரத்தர, அது பெரும்பான்மை மக்களிடமிருந்து அவர்களை அன்னியமாக்கி விடும் அபாயம் இருக்கிறது” என்றார் எழுத்தாளர் ஒருவர்.
“சினிமாவில் சில விஷயங்கள் பழகிப் போனவை. திருட்டு நகை வாங்குபவர், நகை அடமானம் வாங்குபவர் என்றால் அவர் மார்வாடியாகத்தான் இருப்பார். அதேபோல், பழைய படங்களில் வில்லனின் பெண் உதவியாளர் ரோஸி, மேரி, ஸ்டெல்லா என்று கிறிஸ்தவப் பெண்ணாகத்தான் இருப்பார். ஆங்கிலோ இந்தியப் பெண்கள் ஸ்டெனோக்களாக அதிகம் வேலை பார்த்ததால் எழுந்த பழக்கம் இது. அதற்கெல்லாம் மக்கள் உணர்ச்சிவசப்படவில்லை. இப்போதும் மக்கள் உணர்ச்சி வசப்படுகிறார்களோ இல்லையோ, சில அமைப்புகள்தான், தாங்கள் பெயர் வாங்குவதற்காக, கண்டனங்களை எழுப்பிச் சர்ச்சைகளைக் கிளம்புகின்றன.
“மத அமைப்புகள் மட்டுமல்ல, சில ஜாதி அமைப்புகளும் அவ்வப்போது சினிமாவைக் குறி வைக்கின்றன. நகைச்சுவைக்காகக் கூட எந்தக் காட்சியையும் தைரியமாக வைக்க முடியவில்லை. வக்கீல்கள் போராடுகிறார்கள். ஆட்டோ சங்கத்தினர் ஆர்ப்பாட்டம் நடத்துகிறார்கள். மக்கள் பக்குவமாகத்தான் இருக்கிறார்கள். எந்தக் காட்சியில் எதை மட்டும் அர்த்தப்படுத்திக் கொள்ள வேண்டும் என்பது அவர்களுக்குத் தெரியும். சில அமைப்பு கள்தான் விஷயங்களைப் பெரிதுபடுத்துகின்றன” என்றார் தயாரிப்பாளர் ஒருவர்.
சீனியர் வழக்கறிஞர் ஒருவரிடம் பேசினேன். “சில பேருக்கு சினிமா மீது வழக்குத் தொடுப்பது விளம்பரம் தேடித் தருவதாக அமைவதால், அவர்கள் சென்ஸார் போர்டு, இயக்குனர் மீது மட்டும் வழக்குத் தொடராமல், நட்சத்திரங்களையும் அதில் இழுத்து விடுகிறார்கள். அப்போதுதான் அதற்கு விளம்பரம் கிடைக்கிறது. தியேட்டரை விட்டு எடுக்கப்பட்டு விட்ட படத்திற்கு கூட இன்னமும் வழக்குகள் நடக்கின்றன. இது எல்லோருக்கும் தேவையில்லாத நேர விரயம். இது தவறான விஷயமே” என்றார்.
சினிமா என்பது பொழுதுபோக்கு அம்சம். அதில் யாரையும் புண்படுத்தும் விஷயங்கள் இருக்கக் கூடாது என்பது உண்மையே. ஆயினும், சிறு சிறு விஷயங்களுக்காகவும், சில தனிப்பட்ட நபர்களின் அமைப்புகளின் விளம்பரத்திற்காகவும் சினிமா தேவையில்லாமல் அலைக்கழிக்கப்படுவதும் தவறுதானே?

We Indians are used to taking nonsense: Anupam Kher
"I'm very sad to hear that in UP, the Samajwadi Party is mulling over banning the Hindi version of Vishwaroopam. Today it is religion, tomorrow it could be anything. No matter what kind of films you make - aap dharmik filmein banaye ya samaajik filmein, if people have to point out something, they will do it in any case. And because we're giving power to them, by paying heed to what they are saying, tomorrow anyone can stand up and say 'why do you have this song in the film?' Or 'why is the woman dressed in a certain dress?'"
"We, as the people of India, are shamelessly spineless. As a former Censor Board chief, I condemn the banning of Vishwaroopam. We have a body called the Censor Board that takes care of all such things - if they have cleared the film, I don't see what the problem is in releasing it? Why should a director send scripts to ten different people for approval? That is not right, and it feels we are going back to the Dark Ages. Earlier, movies were viewed as a source of entertainment - now, they are dissected on the basis of religion and caste and what not, and the government actually listens to such people! This is bizarre. I'm sorry, but then I'll have to say that our leaders are indulging in appeasement politics. And because of them, we have to please such people."

Kanna,
No offence taken IMO, Chandra Haasan maintains himself as a dignified professional. In fact, IMO, his presence makes Kamal carry himself better. If you notice, Kamal was about to announce the release date (avasaram jaasthi), but consulted Chandra Haasan and stopped for good. Without talking to others how can he announce for sure? Ippidi, there may have been many (small but important) instaces where he would have helped Kamal. In fact, Kamal could go this far because Chandra Haasan is RKFI's partner and non-interfering giving Kamal the much needed freedom.

I now realize that, VR is in fact partly inspired by (i) Berenson's "The Faithful Spy" (http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/3...e_Faithful_Spy - "John Wells, a CIA spy who infilitrates Al Quaida and comes in from the cold to attempt to stop a plot to destroy New York City with a dirty bomb.." !! and (ii) Frederick Forsyth's "The Afghan" - "Mike Martin, a retired SAS (British Special Air Service) officer. Educated in Iraq and physically able to pass for an Afghan (his maternal grandmother was a Bengali-Indian named Indira Bose) who contributed to his chestnut-brown complexion which allows him to look like an Arab (or later on, Afghan) Martin has a near-perfect command of Arabic and is also familiar with Afghanistan and the Pashtun language, Pashto. He is chosen (due entirely to an overheard gaffe by his brother who is a member of the expert "Koran committee" of academics specialising in ancient texts) to infiltrate the highest echelons of AQ, by impersonating an AQ prisoner, Izmat Khan, currently held at Guantanamo Bay. In the story it is revealed that prior to Martin's escapades in Iraq he had worked with the Mujahideen in Afghanistan during the Soviet occupation where he met Osama Bin Laden and rescued a young Afghan boy, Izmat Khan, who later became a resistance leader. Khan is portrayed as a heroic Afghan freedom fighter determined to have vengeance against America and careless of his life following the bombing of his village in the Tora Bora mountains which killed his family." !!!! see the similarity ?! Kamal has taken elements from both these books and merged into one plot, Indianised it with a RAW agent - which is convenient coz of his complexion (just as in Mike Martin).
VR2 will likely explore these things further! this is the advantage of reading books from a variety of sources - so Kamal fans, read, read and read more! you will cherish these plots better that way!
3. good question ! me-thinks the agent is so confident that the investigator is no good at it, it wont harm any of his mission - also likely that going by the storyline, the RAW agent was nearing the completion of his mission (its left unsaid, but you can guess it - coz he tells his senior that he is near the warehouse, which means he has already done enough work to find out abt the operations, and it was at the fag end of his own undercover work, that he gets tailed by the investigator)

Hidden touches in the film !
There is a good observation from a Muslim fan from North about a scene. Originally Posted by Srimannarayanan

Soon after he dies by becoming a suicide bomber. What is so great in this? Here it is: the young man knows what he lost i.e. all the pleasures of childhood and also knows that his life is very short and wants to regain his lost childhood before he is gone and enjoys that bliss with closed eyes. All this is untold but picturised in brief moment. It also suggests that the younger son will later realise what he had lost just like his older brother. This reviewer cant figure it out because he has no sensibilities to notice them.

according to those orgs, apart from the first 15 mins the entire film shows the muslims in bad light.Assuming, that kamal mutes all references to "allah ho akbar" and prayers, can't people still see terrorists praying? forgetting the political angle, how muting 7 scenes is going to improve the image of tamil / indian muslims ? How come it is now acceptable that a RAW agent is shown as giving training to al qaeda? does this mean that they didn't understand after viewing that this was an infiltration?
BTW, jus back after viewing for the 3rd time at PVR .The person next to me was complaining that he didn't understand anything and he fell asleep. while leaving I recommended AP to him.

IMHO, VR is that kind of a thriller - i was totally impressed with the female lead actually stealing the show towards the end - instead of giving the protoganist the be-all-know-all edge, Kamal did not fall into that trap, and gave the female character the most important part! that is as novel and realistic as it can get - every character, even the lady cop interrogating, or, the FBI sidekicks sitting in the car, had their parts well-etched.

Watched the movie the 2nd time. First time i didn't find any fault but after watching the 2nd time ,i must say the 2nd half was a bit slow and the climax(?) ending was all of a sudden. I honestly think KH as overshot the movie and only at a late stage he might have decided to make it into 2 parts. The way he is very confident about VR 2, it makes me fell that he has already shot 50 -60% and i dont think he as just shot 5 to 10% as he says.

Conversation between me and my 7 year old son (after watching the movie)
My son : Why Kamal is in NY
Me : He is an indian spy in NY
My son : Is he Muslim or Hindu, I am bit confused
Me : He is Muslim, but since he is a spy, he impersonated as Hindu. (just to divert him from this topic), whats your favorite part in the movie?
My son : First fight. What did he say before the fight. I liked it.
Me : Its probably some words from kuraan. If you want to learn, you need to convert yourself to Muslim.
My son : I dont want to.
Me : Why?
My Son : They wont allow anyone to watch movie
This whole episode created bad impression about this religion atleast in my 7 yr old boy's mind. Somthing that Osama (he knows all about WTC, including my own pictures that I have taken on Sep 9th in WTC Terrace), Kesab (I was in Marriott when the episode happened in Taj and we were running around to get a cab to go home), Farenheit 9/11, United 93 and VR couldnt do.

and every single review I have read so far say the same thing abt the central plot/contents - THERE IS NOTHING OFFENSIVE AGAINST ANY RELIGION / COMMUNITY !
and in spite of all of this, if the Tamil version gets edited and released, it would mean only one thing: the Tamil Muslim grps demanding the changes are either following a brand of Islam that is alien to Muslims rest of the country, or, they are simply plain guilty/afraid that somehow certain things they have been responsible for, will come out!

rajraj - very interesting article ! thanks for sharing it with us - so history seems to repeat itself huh ?
on the other hand, going by the debates on NDTV involving Kabir Bedi, Mahesh Bhatt, Atul Tiwari, Shabana Azmi, Javed Akhthar and a few others, there does seem to be a culture of intolerance brewing up throughout the country - Rushdie being banned, Sangh parivar objecting to MF Hussain etc..
the idea/notion of cultural sanctity is so complicated that its very difficult to draw lines, as to what is offensive and what is not !
when a product of art is made for public consumption, how can one judge as to how harmful it can/will be ? if ppl dislike it, then dont endorse it/watch it! but to blackmail/threaten the govt into accepting its demands to stop the art from being exhibited is unacceptable indeed.

CGI should not be seen as CGI on screen..! Take a wild guess what and all visual effects in VR? Not just the Time Splice shots! There are many! Can you guess?.. We take so much of care in doing visual effects. A bad visual effects may be the result if various combinations. Though I found very few shots tacky, overall it's a technical marvel the Indian cinema not seen before! In Enthiran and Ra.One the story was such that the Robot actions are supposedly shown as CGI. But a film like VR it should be hidden and ofcourse it has hidden beautifully, else we wouldn't have enjoyed the film as we are now. Lets give some compliments to them too! As I said if you know the Vfx sequences in the film you will be stunned! This I am saying so authentically because I am from the industry and I know people who worked in the visual effects for the film! Originally Posted by irir123

Bad precedent has been set.
And I absolute hate how the defence is 'the film does not offend' or Kamal having to wave his secular credentials and track record (one can't blame him for it, considering the situation). Instead of insisting on the 'right to offend'.
If you take umbrage, go to that corner and gripe - is all we should have said. We are staring at a downward spiral now.

It would have been better if Kamal had requested contribution/donation from fans rather than agreeing to delete scenes.

... to which Mu.Ka replied - yes "angEyum mottai! ingEyum motaithAn"
2) In Pava mannipu -the song "pAlirukkum" song " adhu...vEdham seidha guruvai kuuda viduvathillaiye" was forcefully changed to "vEdham seitha uruvam pOla maraivathillaiye"
3) In paavamannipu - in the song "manidhan mArivittaan" in paava mannipu (cycle song) - "edhanai kandaan madham thanai padaithaan" was changed to "edhanai kandaan panam thanai padaithan"
----------------------------
Holy cows seem to be frothing with Glee that they can wag their tails by this Viuswaroopam fiasco but we need to remind them that varna perumai of the Holy cows shall bite the dust!
It would be a cautionary notice for them that we say " dont start a further social catastrophe by going there" - we will have a FIELD day when they get there! perhaps the starting point would be reigniting the strugglke against Chidambaram dikshithars banning thamizh pAdalgaL and the Breaking down of the "therku vaasal" of that temple!

Actually, this is not a time to be on the Backfoot but pretty much out of the crease; thamizh film makers know how to "position" a scene, chipping away and openly sniping at ANY GIVEN fundamentalist theology, and screw it in such a way that they cant openly condemn it! Thamizh film makers should go down this path with Gusto and hit away happily! Spoofing the fundamentalists should be part of every films henceforth:
for ex. we should have a scene which digs at the pen kalvi maRuppu of the Talibanish and how Indian muslim women go to colleges and becoem Judges and then Governors like fathima beevi! - This way Islamic fundamentalists should be forced to deal with Women Lib groups...sparks shall fly over!

irir,
Great points in your review! I thought we should not spill out everything before majority of the hubbers watch it though!
I heard that the Latest Homeland TV series (which must have been made after Viswa was made) was also based on that unfaithful spy of John wells.
_________________
With respect to the Politics spoken of in Viswa Or the undertones which reverberate in it, is based on "Outsiders" to Afghanistan - Wahabbi brand of Islam intervening in Afghanistan. And the Afghan Tribal/ethnic people's resentment against the 'Outisders" is clearly registered in that scene i had pointed out earlier (NATO strike scene).
NATO and American forces are clearly shown to target Civilian populace in order to defeat Jehadis, which these Moron islamists have failed to understand.
There is no sense of Gloating/Victoriousness shown on Part of the undercover RAW agent anywhere, but only a sense of duty , almost to the point of comparing to the act of "seethai voluntarily entering the fire", the predicament, unfair pressure on the Indian Muslims is absolutely portrayed .........Hats of to Kamal!
"manushaal sethatha deevaali mARi kondaadrale" says a lot about this predicament/pressure and also hits out at the American warrior culture.
The point of view that kamal hjas missed to show the American aggression is far fetched, since that view refuses to take into account that the very same Taliban/Al qaeda was born out of American sponsored Mujahideen against Russian/Soviet occupation of Afghan.
George F**** Bush is villified and personified as Evil(as he deserves to be) and the americans' "arrogant ignorance " in anything other than the "american culture" is well portrayed in many scenes thru dialogues.
This film is an Ode to the NAtive Afghani who has lost everything in their life, due to the usurpation/occupation of "outsiders" hegemony and belligerence, whethere religious or cultural.
The very first scne where Omar Kureishi(not Mullah Omar) meets the Wazim Kashmiri (note the name):
Omar: "appA illAtha pasanga ushArA iruppangan-rathu unna pAthAlE thereiyuthu"
Kashmiri: "appA yArunnE theriyAtha pasanga athaivida ushArA iruppAnganu unna pAthEle theriyuthu"
The kind of "politics" Kamal speaks here is pretty much layered and thought-provoking, how could anyone miss that!

Everyone else had made profit from VR , the fringe minority groups got publicity,the media both print and tv channels made huge gains in their viewership by discussing about VR issue, the opposition parties gained votes ,the pirate mafia as made record profits,the distributors from Kerala,AP, Karnataka and NI who got the distribution rights quite cheaply are making huge profits.

Those who make hue and cry "everybody earns not RKFI" pl wake up. Those days are gone when producer sells his movie to distributors for certain amount and the dis will incur loss or profit based on its run in theatre. No sir. The movie screening right is sold to highest bidder for a fixed period for a sum with PROFIT SHARING ARRANGEMENT. So relax. RKFI could have recovered major portion of production cost by now (overseas,tamil, telugu and Hindi) he will be counting his profit after tn and dth release.

But for a bi-lingual, it will be considered as flop.
Otherwise, if Kamal just dubbed it and claiming as bi-lingual then fine.
Anyway, the final victory is with Kamal. The extremists claimed that the entire movis is anti-Islam and now they agreed for minimal cuts.
Let us wait for another 2 weeks to see the real box office. Only concern is that many have watched in pirated CDs.

Is there separate censor certificates for inside/outside TN?
I don't think so !
Your reason is logical if some scenes are just chopped off... but here it is getting re-censored.
If it is only because of Govt's fear of violence in theaters, then do you think DTH and satellite show will include the deleted scenes?
One thing you are right - atleast I am confused

Surprisingly koimoi website - which always give numbers - is not giving it for VR, but it gives for David.

Pushpak, one more clarification. Re censoring is needed only when you add scenes. For removing scenes/muting, you just need to intimate them so and so. Thats enuf. There is nothing like they are going to check if thats correct and all. They will get o know the mutes and reply with an acknowledgement that they are aware of this. Thatsall.

I am really confused by he Hindi BO figures. 1025 screens and only Rs 1.89 Cr on day one? even if you assume Rs 100 per ticket and 3 shows per day, it just translates into only 60 people watching per show.....or are we missing something?

Vishwaroop continued being the best among all the new releases this weekend even on Saturday. The movie which had made 1.90 Crores on its Day 1 at the domestic box office made another 2.50 Crores on its Day 2. Having seen a spike on Saturday the Vishwaroop now stands at a domestic total of 4.40 Crores.
If promos are done better (TV channels) it can really pick up and will get a good long run.

I don't think they are the same Apples to Apples comparison. Movies are censored taking into consideration all these aspects. Indeed, cuts are demanded if deemed offensive (among other reasons), ratings offered for guidance etc. M.F.Hussain's art does not fall into the same category and don't believe it goes through any censorship.

Although I have to agree the best way to deal with this is to ignore all this and move on. But that was precisely what was not possible in the case of VR. Instead of allowing some space for protest for these groups, the state intervened, foisted a false intelligence report stating that there was a law & order problem without even caring to watch the movie, encouraged the fringe groups for narrow political reasons and lied to the courts to continue the ban.

according to some reports before the DTH controversy, It seems kamal had quoted 20 cr for hindi, 40 for telugu and 60 Cr for tamil.If this is true, then anything less than 20 cr, kamal can forget bilinguals. Originally Posted by pushpak

OK. This is a nice interpretation of that scene. But, I interpreted that scene in a different angle. Here is what I thought, Originally Posted by duraipandy
<spoilers>
The little kid who refuses to play the swing wants to become a doctor and not a warrior(jihadi) . He is so clear and matured (courtesy : his mother) even in that age and so his dad (Mullah) is finding tough time to infuse jihad-ism in him. Whereas Mommy (he is not mullah's kid though) , the big one is still childish which is clearly depicted by the way he behaves - he wants to play the swing and enjoy it like a child, he wants to be photographed and he is so innocent and naive that Mullah was able to brainwash him to be jihadi.
The above was just my thought. Anyways Hats off to Ulaganayagan for making such in-depth scenes throughout the movie.

if and only IF the sound system was better (the Devi Karumari amman complex in Virugambakkam, Chennai has better sound system I swear!), the crowd wud have been quieter.
Am watching again with some american friends, who already love Kamal's Salangai oli, and want to watch VR.
but hopefully will get a chance to travel to another city - work-related and watch it in a hall with a good sound system

Vishwaroopam Shaking US Box office Published Date : 02-Feb-2013 22:00:00 GMT Vishwaroopam Tamil is rocking and shaking US box-office. Even in 2nd week end we are seeing unexpected huge response in all the locations in USA.
Several people went back especially in NJ and California due to unavailability of tickets. Prime time shows in all major locations were sold out on FRI and SAT. Normally SAT collections will be 100% more than FRI if the movie is strong, but this SAT it reported 150% more collections than this FRI Feb 1st. People in small places are driving for 2/3 hours and watching the movie in nearby places.
We are also seeing repeated audience for this movie. Even Telugu version also running strong in 2nd week. Since we are expecting the same response at least for next two weeks, we will be planning full schedules in all major locations for both Tamil and Telugu for next two weeks.
Tickets can be purchased as follows:
For all Big Cinemas, Rave and AMC theaters on www.movietickets.com
For Carmike theaters on www.fandango.com
For Cinemark theaters on www.cinemark.com
Online advance booking is highly recommended.

which means that in less than a weeks time VR trailers will be shown in regular movie halls - and from 24th Feb, it will become part of american mainstream cinema screenings and not just desi halls!

Then Omar goes on to say "appA illAma valarntha pasanga ushaara iruppaanga..." comment, to which wazim sharply and with some animosity (seemingly) retorts that "appA yArunnE theriyaama valantha pasanga innum ushaaraa iruppaanga..." looking at Omar, Omar is stumped and shocked; he looks at Salim and asks him "nee sonniyaa" to which salim replies "naan illa"
Wazim uses his knowledge about the profile of Omar to start playing "mind games" with him from that moment on!

According to the story line US is not the only country that the group wants to do a terrorist attack India is also in the list so it should be nothing surprising that an Indian Intelligence agent is following this group and finds this group also wants to attack US and tips them off and helps in preventing an attack. Now in actual reality also there is lot of R&AW agents undercover in Afghanistan because its easier for an Indian pushtun or a kashmari or a patan to infiltrate then an US white man. If one knows the history, then will know that the Indian subcontinent starts at Indukush mountains and Afghanistan and India were always related closely. Even in Mahabharata saguni place is mentioned as Kandahar. If you follow news closely then you would have known this. Before Rajiv Gandhi was assassinated the late PLO leader Arafat tipped off the Indian govt of a possible attack on Rajiv's life. How does PLO knew the plans of LTTE ?.In the field of Intelligence all these thing are common. Originally Posted by pavalamani pragasam

Interstingly Kamal named one of the undercover agents working with the Indian Agents in america as "Dawkins" (if i remember that right!) in viswaroopam.

Actually, i would like to point out that none of the Indian Agents exude any kind of nationalistic fervour during the operations. Actually Dawkins should be from british MI6 according to the script, co-operating with the indians, probably. When Nirupama excitedly quips "neenga nallavarthaanE" at Wiz , the groupd leader retorts "apdinnu yAr sonnadhu?" making her more confused than before! Originally Posted by venkkiram
Wazim himself tells Nirupama that he already has so much of emotional baggage by doing all kinds of things (here Ashmitha stops him from saying any further details about any of his missions).... and add to this he again declares "Im a hero and im a Villain" (this is also in the trailer)...
The VR PArt 2 migh probably have more Greyish episodes of Wazim in specific and regarding all the Characters (protoganists & antagonists) than a Jingoistic recounting (i am speculating).
But VR1 certainly has a lot of Subtle but solid moments where the story teller keeps everyone in the Grey area. Wazim all the more and the most! Fascinating work by writer Kamal!

கமலின் ரசிகர்களுக்கு மத்தியில் இவருக்கு இனி சிறப்பு இடம்
இந்த படத்தில் இருப்பவர் பெயர் ஹேமேந்திரா… இவர் சென்னை மற்றும் புறநகரை சேர்ந்த கமல் ரசிகர்களுக்கு தேவதூதனாக(இதுக்கெல்லாம் கேஸ் போடாதீங்கப்பு, வேணுமின்னா திரைகுலச்சாமி, வரம் தந்த மனிதர் இப்படி போட்டாலும் போட்டுக்கறேன்) காட்சி அளித்து வருகிறார்.
விஷயம் ஒன்றுமில்லை 30க்கும் குறைவான வயதுடைய இந்த இளைஞர் தமிழக எல்லையை ஒட்டிய ஆந்திர மாநிலத்தை சேர்ந்த சத்தியவேடு பகுதியில் உள்ள ஸ்ரீனிவாசா திரையரங்கின் உரிமையாளர். அதை விட தீவிர கமல் ரசிகர் இவர். கமல் திரைப்படங்களை சென்னைக்கு வந்து முதல் நாளே பார்த்து விடுபவரான இவருக்கு விஸ்வரூபம் தமிழகத்தில் திரையிடப்படாததை கண்டு மனம் வருந்தி அதை ஏன் நமது மினி தியேட்டரிலேயே திரையிடக்கூடாது என்று எண்ணியிருக்கிறார்.
தொடர்ந்து அவர் விஸ்வரூபம் படத்தின் விநியோகஸ்தர்கள் தரப்பில் இருந்து பேசி வலுகட்டாயமாக தனக்கு விஸ்வரூபம் தமிழில் தான் வேண்டும் என வாங்கி கடந்த ஜனவரி-26ஆம் தேதி முதல் தனது திரையரங்கில் விஸ்வரூபம் தமிழ் படத்தை 4 காட்சிகளாக திரையிட்டு வருகிறார்.
முதல் நாள் முதற் கொண்டே அரங்கு நிறைந்த காட்சிகளாக படம் ஓடுவதை மகிழிச்சியுடன் கூறும் இவர் சென்னையில் இருந்து சுமார் 80 கிலோ மீட்டர் தொலைவில் உள்ள தனது திரையரங்கில் அதிக அளவு சென்னை ரசிகர்களே வந்து படம் பார்ப்பதாகவும், காஞ்சிபுரம், வுிழுப்புரம் பகுதியில் இருந்தும் கூட கமல் ரசிகர்கள் வருவதாக மகிழ்ந்து கூறுகிறார்.
200ரூபாய்க்கு டிக்கெட்டை விற்றாலும் அனைவரும் வாங்கி விஸ்வரூபம் படத்தை பார்ப்பார்கள் என்ற நிலையில் வெறும் 50 ரூபாய்க்கே இவர் விஸ்வரூபம் தமிழ் படத்தை ரசிகர்களுக்கு போட்டு காட்டுகிறார். கேட்டால், எனக்கு தேவையான லாபத்தை அதுவும் எந்திரன் படத்தை நான் திரையிட்ட போது கிடைத்ததை விட அதிகமாகவே இந்த படம் வாங்கித் தரும், எனக்கு அதிக லாபம் தேவையில்லை, தமிழகத்தில் எல்லையோரப் பகுதியில் உள்ள என்னைப் போன்ற கமல் ரசிகர்களும் இந்த படத்தை பார்த்து மகிழ வேண்டும் என்பதே தனது எண்ணம் என்று ஹேமேந்திரா கூறுகிறார்.
கடந்த சில நாட்களாக சென்னையில் இருந்து காரிலும், பைக்குகளிலும் ஆந்திர மாநிலம் சத்தியவேடு படையெடுக்கும் கமல் ரசிகர்களின் வாகனங்கள் இவரது திரையரங்கின் முன்பு 1 கிலோ மீட்டர் தூரம் வரை நிற்பதை ஆந்திர மாநிலத்தவர் வியப்புடன் பார்த்து வருகின்றனர். நாளொன்றுக்கு இவரது திரையரங்கிற்கு சுமார் 1500 ரசிகர்கள் தமிழகத்தின் சென்னை போன்ற வெளிப்பகுதியில் இருந்து வந்து விஸ்வரூபம் தமிழ் படத்தை பார்த்து செல்வதாக மகிழ்ந்து கூறுகிறார் இவர்,,
ஆந்திராவில் விஸ்வரூபம் படத்தை தமிழில் திரையிடும் ஒரே திரையரங்கம் தனது தான் என்று பெருமையுடன் கூறும் சத்தியவேடு ஸ்ரீனிவாசா திரையரங்கின் உரிமையாளர் ஹேமேந்திராவை தமிழக கமல் ரசிகர்கள் இப்போதைக்கு நன்றியுணர்வுடன் பார்க்கிறார்கள் என்பதே நிஜம்

கமல் எந்த அளவுக்கு நொந்திருப்பார் என இதிலிருந்து புரிந்து கொள்ளலாம். ஒவ்வொரு காட்சியையும் செதுக்குவதற்கு பிரயத்தனம் காட்டிய கமல் இந்த கட்டுப்பெட்டித் தனமான மக்களை/அமைப்புக்களை கணிக்காமல் விட்டது பெரிய பிழை. இனியாவது தனது கலைத் தாகத்திற்கும் மக்களின் புரிதலுக்கும் இடையேயான பிளவை கமல் புரிந்து கொள்ள வேண்டும். ஹேராம் காந்திக்கு எதிரானது, இஸ்லாமிய மத/மக்களை புண்படுத்துகிறது என்ற விமர்சனங்கள் இப்போது ஒலிப்பதைக் கேட்டு நான் வியப்படையவில்லை. அப்படைப்பு அப்படிப்பட்ட விதத்தில் தான் உள்வாங்கப் பட்டிருக்கிறது என்றே நினைத்திருந்தேன். படைப்பை ரசிக்கக் கூடிய சூழலை கமல் கட்டமைக்க முன்வரனும். இல்லையெல் இப்படித்தான் படைப்பின் சாராம்சமும் வெகுஜன உள்வாங்கலும் மோதிக்கொள்ளும்.

In Bollywood, only net collections are reported. Ni has very high tax rate some state has as high as 70%. The average tax rate should be around 40%. Also AP has double taxation for dubbing movies I think close to 25%. Just calculate the gross revenue from net revenue. Originally Posted by kalyan

And the sad part is .....One feels that Kamal has consciously introduced the prayer scene to make a point that all devout muslims are not terrorists...to differentiate between the good practicing Muslims from the guys who have interpreted the scripture wrongly.... And these guys want to ban that ? God save TFI.
Or is it because they object to a 'non-muslim' actor doing the 'action' of Namaaz ? if it is the latter , then God has even more work to do, to save TFI.
I think these groups are causing more damage to their own religion than any movie or a book can ....

Not sure which version of the news is true...But the scene where wazim prays just before breaking and entering to stop abbasi from carrying out his mission is very very essential to the film. The dialogues during that scene convey a lot of info on how we perceive God, religion and other perspectives. Originally Posted by Nachiketa

Below is as per Karthik Subramanian (The Hindu):
1.The title card changed the CBFC cleared first title was to effect "some segments inspired by real life" now "incidents imaginary"
2. The shots showing the jihadis doing the namaz - prayer - are not allowed. Only shots showing the hero doing the prayer will appear.
3. Some references to the Holy Quran are to be removed. Dont know if audio or video. One banner reading "La Ilaha Ilala" - visual cut.
4. There is a reference to a "Tamil Jihadi". This has been removed/ modified. Again not sure if audio or video.
5. With reference to how the main villain speaks in Tamil, a reference to cities of Coimbatore and Madurai has been removed.
Alright those are the five counts of edits that I know of. But bear in mind these are the things that the protesters talked about not #Kamal
#Kamal had insisted that there were only audio mutes. But the Muslim Federation and other protesters said there were visual cuts too.

Monday 4th February 2013 10.30 ISTBoxofficeindia.Com Trade Network
Vishwaroop managed decent collections over the weekend by collecting in the 7.75 crore nett range. The film had solid growth on each day of 30-35%. The film has managed better collections than well promoted outright Hindi films like Table No.21 and Inkaar. The collections are also a bit higher than Robot which is the highest opener for a film which is from the South and features a South Indian star as main lead. Robot had opened in the 7.25-7.50 crore nett range.
David another bilingual film did not make any mark at the box office as it collected around 2.25 crore nett. the film showed growth over the weekend but was limited growth on top of a low starting point.

His arguments are always from the perspective of an evolutionary biologist...He is very technical in his attack on religion.
Hitchens ... on the other hand spoke a bit like Kamal. He was not a scientist. He talked about an 'Anbe Sivam' kind of solidarity and Humanism....And his argument was that ....You don't need to be a Christian or a Hindu or Jew or Buddhist to be good...On the flip side, he attributes , almost all evil in this world to 'Organized religion'... And even brings a religious angle to the atrocities committed by a Stalin or a Pol Pot....
But , the similarity of Hitchens and Kamal ends here....Hitchens would say 'My brothers' but never say ' My Muslim brothers'....Never... He was contemptuous of ALL religion....(and was not selective in his attacks)

Agree with you that Kamal is being politically correct and Hitchens tried never to be politically correct. He had the freedom, he lived in a country that protects individual freedom and people from threats. Also he made a career out of not being politically correct, otoh Kamals career and his country forces him to be politically correct. Originally Posted by vikatan

நீக்கப்படும் காட்சிகள் விவரம்
விஸ்வரூபம் படம் தொடர்பான முத்தரப்பு பேச்சு வார்த்தையின்போது இஸ்லாமிய அமைப்பினர் 15 காட்சிகளையும், சில வசனங்களையும் நீக்க வேண்டும் என்று கூறினார்கள். உடனே கமலஹாசன் தனது லேப்டாப்பில் பதிவு செய்துள்ள அந்த காட்சிகளை போட்டுக் காட்டி விளக்கினார். அவைகளை வெட்டினால் கதையின் தொடர்ச்சி இல்லாமல் போய் விடும் என்றார். இதையடுத்து 7 காட்சிகளை நீக்கவும், மற்ற இடங்களில் வசனங்களை நீக்கவும் ஒப்புக் கொண்டார்.
* அதன்படி படத்தின் தொடக்கத்தில், "இது இஸ்லாமியர்களுக்கு எதிராகவோ மற்ற சாதி-மதத்தினரின் கோட்பாடுகளுக்கு எதிராகவோ எடுக்கப்பட்ட படம் அல்ல, இது ஒரு கற்பனை கதை என டைட்டில் போடப்படும்.
* படத்தில் ஆங்காங்கே காட்சிகளின் போது ஒலிக்கும் திருக்குர்ரான் வசனங்கள் நீக்கப்பட்டு வெறும் காட்சிகள் மட்டும் ஓடும்.
* திருக்குர்ரான் வசனம் பின்னணியில் அமெரிக்கரின் தலை துண்டிக்கப்படும் காட்சிகளும், வசனமும் நீக்கப்படும்.
* அமெரிக்காவில் குண்டு வெடிப்பை தடுப்பதற்காக கமலஹாசன் பிரார்த்தனை செய்யும் காட்சிகளும், பின்னணியில் தெரியும் தொழுகை நடத்தும் காட்சிகளும் நீக்கப்படும்.
* முல்லா ஒமர் கோவையிலும், மதுரையிலும் தலை மறைவாக இருந்தார் என்பதை சித்தரிக்கும் காட்சிகள் நீக்கப்படும்.
* நடிகர் நாசர் ஒரு காட்சியில், "முஸ்லிம் அல்லாதவர்களை அப்புறப்படுத்துவதே முஸ்லிம்களின் கடமை'' என்று வசனம் பேசுவார். அந்த காட்சிகள் நீக்கப்படும்.
மேற்கண்டவை உள்பட 7 காட்சிகள் நீக்கப்படுகின்றன.

சென்னை: சூர்யா நடிக்கும் 'சிங்கம்- 2' திரைப்படத்தில் முஸ்லிம்களை கடல் கொள்ளையர்களாகவும், கொடூரமான வில்லன்களாகவும் சித்தரித்து காட்சிகள் அமைக்கப்பட்டுள்ளதாகத் தெரிகிறது. இது உண்மையாக இருக்கும்பட்சத்தில், விஸ்வரூபம் திரைப்பட விவகாரத்தை மனதில் கொண்டு, சர்ச்சைக்குரிய காட்சிகளை இயக்குனர் ஹரி நீக்க முன் வர வேண்டும் என்று இந்திய தவ்ஹீத் ஜமாஅத் கோரிக்கை விடுத்துள்ளது. இது குறித்து அந்த அமைப்பின் மாநிலச் செயலாளர் முஹம்மது ஷிப்லி வெளியிட்டுள்ள அறிக்கையில், விஸ்வரூபம் திரைப்பட சர்ச்சை ஓய்வதற்குள் இயக்குனர் ஹரி இயக்கத்தில் நடிகர் சூர்யா நடித்து வெளிவர இருக்கும் 'சிங்கம்- 2' என்ற திரைப்படத்தில் முஸ்லிம்களை கடல் கொள்ளையர்களாகவும், கொடூரமான வில்லன்களாகவும் சித்தரித்து காட்சிகள் அமைக்கப்பட்டுள்ளதாக தெரிகிறது. இது உண்மையாக இருக்கும்பட்சத்தில், விஸ்வரூபம் திரைப்பட விவகாரத்தை மனதில் கொண்டு இஸ்லாமியர்களின் உணர்வுகளை காயப்படுத்தும் வகையில் சர்ச்சைக்குரிய காட்சிகள் 'சிங்கம்- 2' திரைப்படத்தில் இருந்தால் அப்படிப்பட்ட காட்சிகளை இயக்குனர் ஹரி நீக்க முன் வர வேண்டும் என தோழமையுணர்வுடன் கேட்டுக் கொள்கிறோம். மேலும், 'சிங்கம்- 2' மட்டுமல்லாமல் எதிர்காலத்தில் எடுக்கப்படும் திரைப்படங்கள் தணிக்கைக்காக வரும்போது மத நம்பிக்கையாளர்களின் உணர்வுகளுக்கு எதிராகவோ, இனங்களுக்கு எதிராகவோ சர்ச்சைக்குரிய காட்சிகள் இருப்பின் தணிக்கை குழு கவனத்துடன் செயல்பட்டு உரிய வகையில் அக்காட்சிகளை நீக்கிய பின்னரே தணிக்கை சான்றிதழ் வழங்க வேண்டும். திரைப்படம் என்பது மக்களை வெகு விரைவில் சென்று சேரும் வெகுஜன சாதனம். அதனால் பொது அமைதிக்கு பங்கம் ஏற்படாமல் திரைப்படங்களை எடுக்க வேண்டிய சமூக அக்கறையும், பொறுப்புணர்வும் திரைக் கலைஞர்களுக்கு உண்டு. அதேபோல, தணிக்கை குழுவிற்கு இந்த அக்கறையும், பொறுப்புணர்வும் தாண்டிய கடமையும் உண்டு. அதனால் தங்கள் கடமையை சரிவர செய்து மக்களின் இயல்பு வாழ்க்கையில் திரைப் படங்கள் பாதிப்பை ஏற்படுத்தாத வகையில் தணிக்கை குழு செயல்பட வேண்டும் என்று கேட்டுக் கொள்கிறோம் என்று கூறப்பட்டுள்ளது.

adellam sari . but my niece who went to see on Saturday tells this shocking story. the theater capacity is 300. but more than 1200 people were allowed inside and sat on floor, chair handle etc. only 300 official tkt issued. remaining patrons paid money but allowed to enter without tkt. he gave opportunity to kamal fans to watch the movie in tamil and simultaneously earned quick dirt money! ore kallula rendu manga.

The whole issue seems to be a bad joke played by the TN govt on the sensibilities of the people of TN. When the movie have been released all over India even in places where you have a huge Muslim population without any problem then why is it only the Muslims of TN are finding the movie or the scenes in the movie objectionable?. Maybe we have 2 set of Muslims in India 1, general Muslims of India and 2, 'Special' Muslims of TN. First these special Muslims as to fight and speak up against their Arab brothers who treat them as 2 or 3 rd grade ppl. Ask any Asian Muslim working in Arab countries they will tell you how badly these ppl are treated.

Yes, he is letting many extra, but i guess that cannot be either accounted legally, even if he wishes, becos u cannot allow over capacity. I guess there is no such clause.. Also one shud accept that he is ticketing ONLY Rs.50 and still confident that he can earn more than Enthiran. Also, he is now diverting the crowd to another theater which too plays tamil version and nearby this theatre:- Originally Posted by Unmai Vilambi

Not to rekindl the genie..can sir use this opportunity to mute the word"pa....thy"? Or is right to speech greater than right to equality?
he should have requested his fans not to get emotional or create law and prob, because that will only add fuel to the already raging fire.
sir should utilize this opportunity to chop off atleast 20mt of the movie. friends and relatives from various places said the song is very long, sleek fight sequence is followed by slow-motion of the same seq and last portion of the movie is dragging due to puja's long dialogues etc. sir can use this moment as bless-in-disguise and edit it to make it appealing to viewers all over india.
After reading hundreds of positive reviews online and links provided apropos, i was really shattered to hear this review from my cousin from chicago. (he is diehard kamal fanatic..mind it) "the movie is very very slow, it should have been trimmed by atleast 40 mt, ok type movie and certainly not a ground-shattering thing". i am really afraid what will happen in BO.
i pray to almighty he was having heavy hang-over coupled with migraine while watching it!

My personal opinion, Movie is technically Brilliant and I liked it.
But I personally felt it should be trimmed a little bit to make it more crispier. I don't have any complaints about the movie except the lengthy Afghan portion, details are good but for a viewing experience andha portion konjam trim panni irundha thevalainnu thonuchu..

Didnt understand the gindhi,so couldn't laugh eventhough i could hear laughters frequently coming in first half for the Kathak Part
Afghan Part Stood out.everything was detailed..immensely liked it wished it was more.A Lot is Visually said without dialogues
Transformation scene got Terric claps from Northies I was Pleasantly surprised Sheer Audacity with Action Replay sema intensity
Background music nonsense..
Second Quite felt Drag especially last 20 minutes and with lots of unansered questions..sure gonna see again in Tamil
many scene quite didnt understand the conversation..

to those who complain about the pace of the movie in afghan portions... i loved these portions when compared to the pacy newyork portions... i was not much impressed with the last 20 mins too which was handled in many movies before... but the afghan portions, though the landscape was dry, was very fresh for me... never seen them in any indian cinema before... the setup, the people, the sequences were all so new.. thanks to the editor for allowing the scenes to take its time to unfold... because there were too many things to comprehend...

its that moment while watching 'Mahanadhi', when Kamal is sitting down with the chitfund guy and his sidekick sultry female on the banks of cauvery - long shot with the serene flow of the river and the threesome talking - something tells you something isn't right and yet you dont know what is it that isnt right! its that feel, which sets the tone for what is to follow.
VR's opening titles instill a VR-CF (similar to the above Mahanadhi-centric feel!) - but coz the film encompasses more than one genre, the VR-CF comes and goes.
for an actioner BB, if Kamal just had chosen to extend the VR-CF throughout, may not have worked at the BO - would have become way too intense - so I think it is a smart move on the part of Kamal to mix the VR-CF with other cinematic tones/auras.

Saw vishwaroopam over the week-end. The movie is B-R-I-L-L-I-A-N-T to the letter!
It's unfair and just doesn't make sense to compare this with Haasar's previous two directorial ventires - Hey Ram & Virumaandi!
If Hey Ram or Viruman is a Test match innings from Haasar this is a limited overs cricket innings!
Ovorru scenalyum, besides unparalleled technical standards, enna oru command, enna oru precision in execution. Day by day, this dude (Kamal) is leaving a HUGE GAP in filmmaking standards between him and the rest of the Indian film-makers!
Wasn't able to connect the dots fully in the sehond half (unable to catch up with pace/proceedings vs. what hapened in the previous scenes). So, would probabaly have to watch it for couple of more times to get clearer picture although Haasar left few threads intentionally "open" for V2. Standing ovation at the end by an absolutely "STUNNED" audience! (yes, stunned is the word)
To slightly quote/twist Haasar's song, "Anatha padam edukkurar, (matha film-makers ellam) othikko othikko!".
Kamal HaasaR!
Mark my words, once the ban is lifted in TN, this movie will pattayakelapify in box-office (not just "A" center but even "B" & "C" centers).

I just cant get away some immortal lines from VR off my mind!
"..what are men but monkeys with tails in the front.." - will stay on our minds forever - in terms of the context, and the person who says those words - mind you, its the most insignificant character in the film, and yet lends the most significant weight to the entire film !
The wisdom that comes out of pain, and anguish over a long period, the wisdom that looks for redemption that doesn't seem to come from anywhere! that one can associate with the Chaplin-brand of humor is so starkly evident and in the Tamil cinema context, its Nageshque!
Had Nagesh been alive, Kamal wud have cast him as an old Arab in that same role and those lines would have been given even more value!
If and only if, anyone puts himself / herself in the shoes of that old woman, can one realize the import of those words.
in a profound philosophical sense, that lady is an Arab "Sitthar".
one can place that character in the historical context of any war, right from the times of the mythological mahabharata war (in mythological terms, the lady would have probably addressed Arjuna and Krishna half way through the war) to present day Afghanistan.
Kamal the fr*aking genius!

Going by the trend VR is going end up in top 3 BO collections for Tamil movie. It could have been no 1 if its not for the disturbed release worldwide &TN. I think VR 2 will be surely No 1 bec i sense its going to be much more action packed and fast paced, hopefully KH goes for VR 2.

Saw 2nd time today, morning show@Urvashi.Poi solla vechuttaru pa KH
Take back my three reservations about the film after 1st viewing.
1)The Afghan episode was very good and am sure VR 2 will have more of it.Some great touches there and excellent production values.Tad too long-nnu sonnadhu :embarrassed:
This itself can make a good feature film.
2)Lack of drama-nnu sonnadhu,vapas.The film is not hectic like 10A but still maintains a very tense feel throughout.
3)Abrupt ending giving an incomplete feel.This I think is valid for the first viewing.Now I was ready for it and so did not feel the lack of a proper closure giving climax.
The kathak dance,wow! Only KH possible,Totally bowled over by the song,choreography and the expressions.
The transformation scene in action reply,as massy as it can get.
Excellent action set pieces,Pooja Kumar was a treat to watch,lovely lady with a very expressive face and good body language.
Samrat Chakrabarthi was very good as Salim,noticed him more this time.
I liked the music-songs and BGM.
Oru chinna kurai,felt it this time and the last time,will discuss after the film hits TN.
A couple of scenes which I felt were cheesy/corny was passable this time.Manmohan Singh coming on line and Pooja telling 'avar en purushan'
After this watch am convinced this has BB written all over it without Kamal compromising for achieving that status.

The Quality of film reviewing is appalling.Since I do not watch a lot of new movies,do not follow these reviews.But since I watched VR(my first tamil film in theatre after MMA),have been catching up on the web and print reviews and most of them are unbearable.
Not liking a film is one thing but the things dished out for not liking is material.
The rediff review by some D Zore has to be the worst one written for this film.

CR,
The point is even those who do not like it instantly will have an urge to watch it again.When they do that,they will get a high.
What is in the movie which pushes for a second viewing can be answered by Kamal only.
But the delays have created a lot of expectations for the film,hope people are not impatient.
From personal experience,impatience will create restlessness during the Afghan episode,the hectic pace of Dasa.. will be missed and of course the incomplete feeling at the end of the movie(because there is no end)

The rediff review by some D Zore has to be the worst one written for this film.

Don't go in expecting to see brilliant cinema.What he has delivered(IMO)is a tense(not racy) actioner with excellent production values,all round good acting and some deft touches. Originally Posted by P_R

SPOILER ALERT!
One unanswered question for me is ...how does Omar find out that Wisam is an infiltrator ? Will VR2 provide the answer ?
Another technical highlight of the movie ...was the bomb which is blasted as a diversion in NY . Kamal must have used a real bomb...I have seen nothing as realistic as that in Tamil / Indian movies...

What will be the gross???
Also,as Kalyan pointed out,it had an opening in the 20 to 30 % occupancy range and has picked up through good WOM.
So what fall are they talking about?Opening-e 30 % occupancy-nna,idhula 40 % fall-a. :head reeling:

CF, fall means hte reduce fromt the previous day percentage. They are saying that on mondays there will be a reduction more than 50% but Vishwa only 40%
Also, i guess the actuals they are reporting are minus tax etc. So its not the actual actuals!

Too many assumptions & presumptions !
We can assume like this. After the hanging of an innocent member for possessing the hi tech locator it was shown that another junior Indian guy was also in the Al Qaida team who forgets to destroy the locator after the war as per the movie. Hence Kamal and that guy might have fled Afghanistan after that incident to avoid getting caught by the terrorists later. This might have made Omar to suspect that Kamal & the other guy are actually Indian spies and not real jihadis. But he believed Kamal early since his father was a real jihadi as per their conversations. Kamal, being a RAW agent may be aware of his father's role and decided to go into the camp as the jihadis will not suspect him. This plot was jointly hatched by the Indian PM & US President as being a white, an USA citizen cannot enter their camp hence a Muslim RAW Officer is the right choice !!! ( Too much to assume. Kamal Please at least tell some info to the viewers or else every one will make their own screenplay) Originally Posted by vikatan

Yes. 30% opening is for FDFS. Picked up strongly over the weekend through +WOM. If sunday's % is approx. 80-90%, then they would have meant fall of 40% from this figure..!! Originally Posted by San_K

I recall getting fed up after reading reviews of Mumbai Xpress - I went ahead and emailed my review to I think Indiatimes (?) - and they published.
review vidunga - look at the general quality of English many of these reviewers use - pathetic - past, present, future tense(s), subject, predicate, verb, noun etc etc - idhellaam sagatuu menikku varambillaamaa use pannuradha paartha, i wonder where these reviewers got themselves certified / educated !
Kamal padam (illa IR music, or some Mani Rathnam / Balu Mahendra/ Bala films) - poruthha varaila, i personally dont rely on these reviews - its all my personal view that matters!

the closing credits show omar and wizam fighting and omar shooting wizam. so omar might have found out that wizam was an infiltrator even before he could flee.it is possible that omar might have seen wizam trying communicate over some wireless the location of omar , for the attack team to launch another strike.You can also see wizam using hand flares in the fight, so this could also be used to indicate the position for the team to attack and pick him up. One more scenario is the real wizam kashmiri turning up at omar's place blowing up ganapathy Iyer's(aka wizam kashmiri) cover. Originally Posted by duraipandy

But they fight in Mumbai slums ( Amithab movie posters in the backdrop) in India in the end credits. Both might have come to India for a mission and there Omar came to know the true face of Wazim by some means ( may be a phone speech) Viswanath Iyer is not real and it is a disguise. He is really a Muslim hence he does namaz in the last scene before the bomb is located. The only question is whether he is a real wizam or some other muslim ?

Foilers:
all thru the afghan scenes i was wondering how could omar not suspect wizam even on a single moment... instead goes on summarising him about what, who and how in every other scene...
i think only after omar loses his family he starts suspecting wizam...
imo, wizam does not gel in with the people there anytime... he always appears to be the odd man out...

agents can switch identities like a chameleon. if vishwanath iyer can be false, Wizam can also be false. he his only playing the part (in front of americans) by offering namaz. by birth he would have been ganapathy iyer, profession demanded him to be whiz,wizam etc. Originally Posted by duraipandy

As per him all the hype created in south justifies it !?

My prediction is that, all said and done, Vishwaroop is likely to collect 20 C+ from its theatrical release. For some inexplicable reason, Vishwaroop has not been released in overseas market. There is a good following for KH abroad among Narth Indians. US and UK markets are big for a straight Hindi movie. Not sure if this was a decision of Balaji or KH. But it looks like they have underestimated the potential. Originally Posted by Anban

Small doubt again, maybe spoiler, so sagas who have not watched can ignore below.
In the first scene an old age getup Kamal will let fly the bird into the sky which will come and land in the window of the doctor's room in which Pooja would be taking counselling. So I guess its in the present time in which the story is happening, meaning is there one more Kamal character which is yet to be shown?

Samrat Chakrabarthi was very good as Salim,noticed him more this time.
Just wanted to clarify that the role played by Samrat was Deepak. Salim was played by Jaideep Ahlawat. IMHO, both Rahul and Jaideep underplayed the role as was required by the script.
Did you guys notice that the private investigator was played by Atul Tiwari (Viswaroop dialogue writer)?

To the best of my knowledge, Rahul Bose does not have that kind of pull or mass-following in WB'...he is no Uttam Kumar...As someone who has graduated from the stage to cinema...he is known more for his off-beat 'art' films rather than commercial mainstream movies...And he might have more fans in Delhi/Mumbai than in WB....He is also a respected intellectual involved in several social activities/NGOs....

One more digressive note on Hitches…Sorry, couldn’t help it…
Christopher Hitchens asked this question in all his debates (against Christian apologists, Muslim intellectuals, Evangelists & Rabbis…) and says that he never got a satisfactory answer….
His question is this ….’Name me one moral/ethical/good act, which ONLY you as a believer can do , and which I (as a non-believer) cannot do …? The answer is none…
On the contrary he says …. He can cite thousands of evil/immoral acts that ONLY the believer can think of doing…which the NON-believer cannot even imagine to do...
He gives the examples of stoning for adultery, genital mutilation, the pogroms, the inquisition, the caste system etc etc…which no NORMAL human being would even think of doing without the influence of the evil called religion….

Nachiketa - that is the question often raised by many theists - men like Stalin, Hitler et al were not rational (the latter has actually invoked god in his book) - both were consumed by a sense of godliness abt themselves and actually used their ideologies as a kind of 'religion' - if you read Sam Harris's 'the end of faith', he articulates this very well.
I personally have found my rational, agnostic friends far more objective and constantly trying to be balanced in their thinking than even my own believing family members/relatives !
in the other thread on VR and politics, there is some related discussion going on - all that Kamal has to do today to win over many of my friends/relatives completely (they like him, but still dont accept his ideas completely) is to say "I believe in god" - voila! but thats why Kamal is special - for being what he is and still be able to win over ppl's hearts.

Though Adhinarayanan seemingly got the last word (voice-over reading the letter), isn't Kurudhippunal brilliantly ambivalent about right and wrong.

So the only thread Aadhi seems to be hanging by is the moral high ground of 'madham, arasiyal...idhu pOnRa kaaraNangaL sonnA, uyirai edukkuRa urimai vandhurumA'. But didn't we hear even earlier in the movie how he instructed his spies thad and kill innocent innocent people and even policeman (namma aaLunga) in order to gain the confidence of the terrorists. 'poof' !

Isn't Aadhi more like Krishnan - a family man with talent the warring side has use for.
Of course I mean this only relatively. Compared to Abbas - who is the one who is Badri's counterpart on this side.

I see that some of them want Wazim Kashmiri to be a non-muslim - playing a muslim character but in reality would be some "iyer" (since he is a Spook!). These guys couldn't stand a Muslim fighting for the world and saving the day for US and India eh?! pathetic!
I don't think Kamal has built the story like that - this is manifested in that "moment of the film" (for me) - where Wazim and that other agent converse after the debacle - which results in Omar's family being bombed to death and many others death, by the US soldiers.

Fans pouring milk on the banner of Kamal Haasan, put up at Central Theatre in Coimbatore.
Even as film buffs from this region were unwilling to wait till February 7 and travelled to Bangalore and the border towns of Kerala to watch Vishwaroopam, theatre owners in Coimbatore were in for a surprise.
On Tuesday morning, they found thousands of tickets being booked online in a span of just six hours.
Bookings began at the stroke of 12.01 a.m. on Tuesday.
The release of the movie, originally scheduled for the last week of January, faced trouble, following protests by Muslim organisations that the contents showed their people in a bad light.
After the State had revoked the ban on Sunday afternoon, it was announced that the movie would be released on February 7 and plans opened for reservations at the stroke of 12 on Monday night.
A theatre owner said the response was so overwhelming that more than 4,000 tickets were sold by Tuesday morning.
Multiplexes are planning to show the movie on more screens for at least one week or 10 days to cater to the heavy rush.
Response
V. Senthilkumar, Chief Operating Officer of Central Theatres said the enormous response to Vishwaroopam was second only to Avatar.
R. Hariprasad, manager of Cosmo Village Pictures said the original release plan held good even now because of the tremendous response and the movie will hit the screens on Thursday morning in over 60 centres in Coimbatore district.
When Vijay starrer Thuppaki was released, multiplexes ran 71 shows per week and when the Vishwaroopam release was planned, the original schedule of the multiplexes was to have a minimum of 90 shows per week with at least 12 to 16 shows per day by shuffling the movie on different screens.
After assessing the demand over the next 36 to 48 hours, multiplexes would take a call on shuffling screens and increase the number of shows, a spokesperson for SPI Cinemas in Chennai told The Hindu over phone.
Shows in theatres with one or two screens have been sold out till Sunday. Already, bookings have commenced for the shows beyond Monday.
Six shows
In fact theatres with just one, two or three screens are planning for six shows per day in order to cater to the rush.
On Tuesday, theatre booking counters witnessed big queues.
The staff struggled to clear the queue because by the time, the showtime was chosen and the numbers of seats were entered, the seats were already sold online.

want is different from enforcing. the posts were just guessing what would be in store in part 2.even if wizam is the real identity ,i'm still going to enjoy it.if it is not then there is a twist, which according to me will be even better. This twist is not going to lose it's shine if it is named as tawfeeq or robert or some Iyer or some name. The best would be to leave the audience guessing about the true identity.

This with the final shot of Narasimhan's son attacking Adhi's son - reinforces this. The writer isnt talking about the "Good vs Evil", but just a melancholic recounting of the Tragedy that has befallen a society not based on Civilization, natural justice but one that is a Authoritarian Entity which has a Shining wrapper of a democratic State where most of the citizens are mere puppets to the realisation process of an empowered "few".
The Hegemonists have invented a powerful emulated artificial unjust realm called the " Good vs Evil", where the Masses are pit one against the other!

VR is good film but its not going to be a hit in NI, firstly they are biased towards SI actors. For VR to be a hit in NI they should have casted Amitabh instead of Shekhar Kapur and added a belly dance or an item no as the north Indian call it in the second half then the movie would have been a major hit.

'Race 2' strong, 'David' flops, 'Vishwaroopam' superb!
By Taran Adarsh
RACE 2 held quite well in Weekend 2. The total, after Weekend 2, stands at approx $ 5.4 million [Rs 28.71 crores] ... DAVID [Hindi] is a debacle in U.S.A. [the film did not release in U.K., U.A.E., Australia and New Zealand]. Its Tamil version is equally poor in U.K. and U.S.A. ... Tamil film VISHWAROOPAM held exceptionally well in U.S.A. and U.K., despite new releases ...

Why INOX Chennai and PVR cinemas are not releasing the movie

From: Lat Sar on 6th February 2013 03:27 PM [Full View]
According to wiki VR as collected more then 110c till yesterday in all versions excluding TN, France, Malaysia,UAE and Srilanka . My guess would be it wiil collect between 70-120c in TN alone depending on the impact of video piracy. Originally Posted by Cinemarasigan

This is on expected lines from gnanakoothan! and he has a very valid point that even the Dravidian Politicians have started to realise this!
And this is written in 1969, shows a lot of "kaduppu" for dravidian politics from the Holy cows too!

When the movie is taken on MG, the theater owners will sell the tickets for more amount(say 200 to 300 Rupees) and account for 10 to 50 rupees; it is difficult to get the real collection. anyway let us hope for something good to come out.. Originally Posted by Lat Sar

I see many here didn’t like the Afghan scenes, but for me that was the "Highlight" of the movie, I had a feeling that the locations were not in Afghan, as it is too dangerous and filming permissions would have been extremely difficult to obtain from the government. But I was just Awe struck by the way the sets were set to make it so real, couldn't find any faults with any shots. But I didn't like the US scenes that match, it looked average, and the Climax could have been trimmed down a bit!

GOOD NEWS!
"Vishwaroopam" to re-screen soon
6 Feb – Fans will be thrilled to know that Kamal Hassan's Tamil spy thriller "Vishwaroopam" is set for a re-screening at local cinemas which may be as soon as this Friday, 8 February 2013.
The controversial piece had already gone through a strict censorship process by the Film Censorship Board of Malaysia (LPF), with up to nine scenes cut out before it was released in cinemas on 24 January 2013, However, that still did not stop it from being pulled out from the screening list on that same day, under the orders from Home Ministry due to protests from Indian-Muslim groups, who claimed that the movie's violent and religious content as derogatory.
Now, it is reported that the authorities are going to remove more scenes from the movie in order for it to hit the screens without public disputes.
"The Film Censorship Board had already taken out nine scenes in "Vishwaroopam" before it was released here and now we have agreed to let them edit or mute seven more scenes," said Garuna Murthee, Director of Lotus Five Stars (LFS) who is the film's local distributor.
It was reported that the seven scenes mentioned were the same ones that were censored in Tamil Nadu and LFS is still waiting for the approval from Home Ministry and Film Censorship Board before deciding on an actual release date for the movie, however LFS had mentioned to Cinema Online that the date of release may most likely be as soon as this Friday, 8 February 2013.

personal guess based on the pulse of the people around....at least 50C guaranteed. Max 100C if the afghan sequences go well with the public. Most likely to settle around 70C....I will be immensely happy for Kamal if it crosses 70C in TN, not only for the financial success, but also because it means more people are getting hooked in to his style of film making....

RKFI and Balaji also made strategic mistakes by not promoting this film aggressively before. In fact there were no promos. Also, they were ready to settle for a limited number of theatres in the north when PVR backed out. The controversy in the South did help in creating teh buzz and having many more screens. It also did not directly clash with Race 2 because of teh postponement. But the unnecassry controversy may have hurt too. Sometimes family audiences stay away when they feel there is something controversial, even if it is not true. The UA certification and violence in the film may also work against it.

Talibans always carry AK47 along with RPG-7 rocket launchers, but during the gun battle with the choppers none of the taliban were using the RPG-7,, none of the had it on them (AFAIK) they all had machine guns and AK47. Trying to shoot down a helipcopter with AK47/machine gun looked odd!

Kamal's clever move !
Kamal screening the movie at Rajini's house will raise the BP of JJ, who reportedly wanted to watch the movie earlier but Kamal did not do that. ( Had he shown to her he would have been forced to sell the movie to Jaya TV) Cleverly Kamal cementing the support of Rajini & his fans to make the film as BB in TN to teach a lesson to JJ ! Rajini will praise the movie tomorrow like a hell which will enhance the present huge hype & hoola !!! Originally Posted by PARAMASHIVAN

I have always believed the religion of Iyengars is closer to Islam than to other Hindu sects, it is just that they call their God by a different name. In fact, many of the old generation Iyengars will even join hands with Muslims if they have to decimate an Iyer. their religion is anti-advaita, has a clear demarcation between man and God and one is not seen as a continuum of the other, demands complete submission with little room for intellectual debate, has a main "prophet" in Krishna "acharyan" (PBUH) whom none can question despite his hundred odd vices and so on. So this doesn't come as a surprise.... Originally Posted by irir123

In the overall analysis, it boils down to the fundamental foundation/denominator common to religion / belief in the supernatural - it is divisive!

here is a probable reason, why the character Abbasi in VR is portrayed as a Nigerian native
http://www.pewglobal.org/2010/12/02/...and-hezbollah/
"...only in Nigeria do Muslims offer views that are, on balance, positive toward al Qaeda and bin Laden...."
that poll's result on the view of Islam playing a role in politics - is very significant - and is one of the main reasons, democracy is finding it difficult to spread in the middle-east or in North africa.
82% of ppl in Pakistan are in favor of stoning adulterers and 76% are in favor of death penalty for ppl who leave islam - now I wonder if they can ever have a peaceful relationship with any country that is not-Islamic, leave alone India.
thats just one country btw!

In Hindi the first song picturization is different from Tamil. (Missed the "vayodu vay pathithal" sequence).
# theater full of sardarjis / NIs
# Kamal intro - no claps
# Transformation - no claps
# Slow motion repeat - no claps. I started it alone.
# Till he cuts the rope of Pooja - Only me clapping/shouting
# Kamal cuts the rope and gives an aggressive stare - all started clapping/shouting.
# Very good response throughout the movie
# After it got over asked 8-10 folks and all liked the movie

VR makes it to the NY Times editorial:
http://www.nytimes.com/2013/02/06/op...h.html?hp&_r=0
In India today, it seems, free speech is itself an atrocity.
A film, for example, might pass the Censor Board, but then be summarily banned by a state government. That’s what happened with “Vishwaroopam,” a Tamil spy thriller released worldwide — but not in the Indian state of Tamil Nadu, where officials prevented its screening, fearing that it might anger Muslims.

Great to join this site after searching some kinda forum which has an obsession for kamal's details. Saw the movie twice here in vadodara!In Hindi of course! And surprised to see a packed crowd and showing great appreciation to certain scenes. Puzzled that the Tamil version has not yet kicked in here.
Like some other guy here, I too felt that the man at the start with pigeons was actually kamal. May be 'a dasa effect'! But otherwise all the other details in the movie have been more or less covered. Swing scene is haunting me every night!!!
Keep the great discussions going!
Liking the fact that kamal still likes to portray Americans as fools!

Kamal Haasan agrees to mute certain dialogues
http://www.bollywoodhungama.com/movi...iew/id/1708496
Kamal laughs uproariously, "Is there any sense to all of this? Some sections of the media said I had tears in my eyes when I spoke about my home being sold to pay loans incurred to make Vishwaroopam. Why would I cry for my home? If I've a home in the hearts of all my fans I am a king. Then I'll start building my palaces. If I've to cry it would be for the country."

I get squeamish with any 'இவங்க இப்படித்தான்' generalizations and kalyan was making a few leaps in logic (which are essential to any generalization) - and that it was prompted by the discussions following that poem made me go 'duh!'
We have a loooong tradition of poking at the 'other' gods. I gave an example of a Thirumazhisai AzhwAr poem a few days back. Similarly you will find Saivite poems that depict Vishnu at the feet of Siva, or as someone who cannot understand Siva's magnitude '..நாரணனும்.....தான் அறியா சே ஏறு செவ்வடிக்கே சென்றூதாய் கோத்தும்பி'
And minor poets of a much late age maintained the potshot tradition. Here is one poem where a poet laments about how even though Siva is the seed of the Vedas, the pArkadal gave him poison because of his unseemly appearance while a (good for nothing) Vishnu is bedecked with silk and given an abode by the selfsame pArkadal.
Everyone was fair game - and those were good times.

From: irir123 on 7th February 2013 06:59 AM [Full View]
P_R - am reminded of a Harikatha, a friend of mine shared with me - it goes something along these lines:
a shaivite saint was travelling from village to village until he arrived at one place where vaishnavites held fort - very hungry / famished - the vaishnavites gave him an ultimatum - sing in praise of vishnu or they wont feed him - so he obliged by singing something like "even 10 Parameswarans are not enough to sing the praise of Vishnu " - and thus made them happy and he was very well-fed (something along the lines of six course dinner maybe!) and when it was time to say 'tata' he finished his singing along the lines of "even 10 Parameswarans are not enough to sing the praise of Vishnu - but even that Vishnu cannot/is incapable of singing enough of me" or something like that - maybe someone here knows that harikatha better!
a perfect tie!

Mudiyala!
All it takes is an harmless poem which employs "Pagadi" to pass a sarcastic note on too much of emphasis to religious icons/sadangukaL, which can then be twisted/interpreted to take one side over the other? (Its a beautiful poem by the way! and not the only one which does this kind of iconoclasm in thamizh neo poetry!)
This is a classic example of how religious thought works!
This validates what Kamal highlighted in Dasa!

The Dvaitin (D) model is said to be similar to some sects of Christianity. So perhaps, they can be said to be closer to Islam. But your comparison of Iyengars to Muslims, is a bit surprising...
For the simple reason that Advaita(A) and Vishstadvaita (VA) have no philosophical commonality with any Abrahamic faiths...
For the above mentioned vedantins (A and the VA types..not the D type), there is no distinction between the creator and the created...i.e. the tree does not 'contain' God...The Tree is God..Which explains the Aarathi done to the Ganges and the Girivalams ... These are all 'Manifestations' of God.
This will be blasphemy to the people of the Book...where there is a clear distinction between the creator and the created...so all things may 'belong'and are 'controlled' by God...but all things are not God..This is a fundamental distinction...which cannot be bridged...
But yes, the urge to keep a separate 'cultural identity' and not mix into the mainstream...could be common factor between Iyengars and Muslims...
Discussion of A and VA types can be done outside this thread...I guess..
Good thinking though...(Correct me if I am wrong)

திரை விமர்சனம் - விஸ்வரூபம் !
சினிமா விமர்சனம்
குறிப்பு: அந்த 'ஏழு’ காட்சிகள் நீக்கப்படுவதற்கு முன் பார்த்த 'விஸ்வரூபம்’ படத்தின் விமர்சனம் இது.
இந்திய உளவுத் துறை அதிகாரி, தலிபான் தீவிரவாதக் கூட்டத்துக்குள் புகுந்து ஆடும் உயிர்ப் பந்தய 'விஸ்வரூப’ விளையாட்டு.
அமெரிக்க வாழ் கதக் நடனக் கலைஞராக மென்மையும் பெண்மையுமாகத் தோன்றுகிறார் கமல். அவரது மனைவி, பூஜா குமார். தனது அலுவலக மேலதிகாரியுடன் நெருக்கமான தொடர்பில் இருக்கிறார் பூஜா. 'பெண் நளின’க் கமலிடம் இருந்து விவாகரத்து பெறுவதற்காக, அவருக்கு வேறு ஏதேனும் 'கனெக்ஷன்’ இருக்கிறதா என்று துப்பறியும் நிபுணர் மூலம் உளவு பார்க்கிறார் பூஜா. தவறுதலாக அல்கொய்தா தீவிரவாதிகளிடம் மாட்டிக்கொள்ளும் அந்த டிடெக்டிவ் கொலை செய்யப்படுகிறார். டிடெக்டிவை அனுப்பியது யார் என்று நூல் பிடித்துத் தேடி வரும் தீவிரவாதிகளிடம் சிக்குகிறார்கள் கமலும் பூஜா குமாரும். அப்போது கமல் ஒரு முஸ்லிம் என்று தெரியவருகிறது. கமலின் புகைப்படத்தைப் பார்த்து அதிர்ச்சியாகும் தலிபான்களின் தலைவர் முல்லா முஹம்மது ஓமர், 'நான் வரும் வரை கமல் தப்பிவிடாதவாறு அவருடைய இரண்டு கால் முட்டிகளிலும் சுட்டுவிட்டு உயிருடன் வைத்திருங்கள்’ என்று சொல்கிறார். ஓமர் வருவதற்குள் கமல் எடுக்கும் ஆக்ஷன் விஸ்வரூபத்தைத் தொடர்ந்து, அவர் யார், எதற்கு அமெரிக்கா வந்தார், ஓமர் ஏன் அவரைப் பழிவாங்க எண்ணுகிறார் என்பதெல்லாம் விறுவிறு சினிமா!
ஹாலிவுட்டில் இதுபோல 500 படங்களாவது வந்திருக்கும். ஆனால், தமிழுக்கு..? படமாக்கப் பட்ட தரத்திலும், கதை சொல்லும் விதத்திலும், தொழில்நுட்பத்திலும் இது அடுத்தகட்ட அபாரப் பாய்ச்சல்!
நேச நாடாக இருந்தாலும், தன் அடையாளங்களை மறைத்து வாழும் ரகசிய உளவாளி, இளைஞர்களை மூளைச் சலவை செய்து பயங்கரவாதிகளாக உருமாற்றும் அல்கொய்தா பயிற்சிப் பட்டறை, சீசியம் கட்டப்பட்ட கதிர்வீச்சுப் புறாக்கள்... எனப் படம் முழுக்க செம ஃப்ரெஷ் விஷயங்களைத் தொட்ட விதத்தில் இயக்குநர் கமல்ஹாசனுக்குப் பாராட்டுகள்.
நளினம் மிளிரும் பரதக் கலைஞராக கண்கள் அபிநயம் பிடிக்க, பெண்மை கலந்து ஓடுவதும், ஆடுவதும், பேசுவதுமாக அந்த கதக் டான்ஸர் கமல்... அபாரம். தீவிரவாதிகளிடம் பிடிபட்ட சமயமும் பதற்றம் அடையாமல் கண்கள் சிமிட்டிச் சிமிட்டிச் சமாளிப்பது... கிளாஸிக் அப்ளாஸ்! 'சாகுறதுக்கு முன்னாடி ஒரு தடவை பிரேயர் பண்ணிக்கிறேன்’ என்று தீவிரவாதிகளிடம் அழுது விம்மி, அடுத்த நொடியில் அத்தனை பேரையும் பொளந்தெடுக்கும் அதிரடி அவதாரம்... கமலுக்கு ஒரு மைல்கல் ஆக்ஷன்.
அப்பாவி கமல் அடப்பாவி கமல் ஆகும்போது மருண்டு மிரளும் இடம் மட்டும் பூஜா குமாரின் ஸ்கோரிங் ஏரியா. இந்தப் படத்தில் எதுக்குங்க ஆண்ட்ரியா..? ஒருவேளை இரண்டாம் பாகத்துக்காக அவரது பாத்திரத்தை ரிசர்வ் செய்திருக்கிறார்களோ?
தலிபான் தலைவராக வரும் ராகுல் போஸ், அசத்தல் வில்லன். ஆங்கிலத்தில் பேசியதற்காகத் தன் மகனையே நெற்றிப்பொட்டில் விரல் வைத்து அவர் 'சும்மானாச்சுக்கும்’ சுடும்போதே தன் கதாபாத்திரம் எவ்வளவு டெரர் என்பதை உணர்த்திவிடுகிறார். ''அப்பா இல்லாம வளர்ந்த பசங்க விவரமா இருப்பாங்க'' என்று தான் சொல்லியதற்கு, ''யார் அப்பான்னே தெரியாம வளர்ந்த பசங்க அதைவிட விவரமா இருப்பாங்க'' என்று கமலிடம் கவுன்டர் வாங்கும்போது கெத்து கலைக்காமல் சிரிக்கவைக்கிறார்.
ஆப்கானிஸ்தான் தலிபான்களிடம் தமிழ் பேசும் காஷ்மீரி ஜிகாத்தாகச் சேர்ந்து, பயிற்சி கொடுத்து, பின் அங்கிருந்து கமல் தப்பிக்கும் காட்சிகள் படத்தின் படபடப்பு அத்தியாயங்கள். 'தலிபான்கள் எப்படி உருவாக்கப்படுகிறார்கள்’ என்று 'செய்முறை’ விளக்கம் அளித்திருக்கும் கமல், உருவத்திலும் உடல் மொழியிலும் தேர்ந்த ஜிகாதி போலவே நடித்து மிரட்டுகிறார்.
''தீவிரவாதியைக் கடவுள்தான் காப்பாத்தணும்?'' என்று பூஜா குமார் சொல்ல, ''எந்தக் கடவுள்?'' என்று கமல் கேட்பதும், ''நான் இந்து. என் கடவுளுக்கு நாலு கை இருக்கும்!'', ''அப்படின்னா அவரை எப்படிச் சிலுவையில அறைவீங்க?'' ''நாங்க எங்க கடவுளைச் சிலுவையில அறைய மாட்டோம். கடல்ல தூக்கிப் போட்ருவோம்!'' போன்ற வசனங்களும் கமல் பிராண்ட் கிண்டல்ஸ்.
குழந்தை ஒன்றைத் தவறுதலாகக் கொன்ற அமெரிக்க ராணுவ வீரர் வருந்துவதும், ''அமெரிக்கர்கள் பெண்கள், குழந்தைகளைக் கொல்ல மாட்டார்கள்'' என்று தலிபான் தலைவரே அமெரிக்காவுக்கு ஆதரவாகப் பேசுவதும்... அடடே... அமெரிக்க ஜால்ரா!
'டர்ட்டி பாமை’ வெடிக்கவைக்கவிருக்கும் தீவிரவாதியைப் பிடிக்க, அவன் வீட்டுக்கு அருகில் ரயில் கடக்கும் இரைச்சலில் கதவை உடைத்துச் சென்று டார்கெட் அடிப்பது, வெடிகுண்டு ரிமோட்டில் தவறுதலாகக் கை பட்டு வெடித்துவிடாமல் இருக்க சேஃப்டி லாக் வைத்திருப்பது, தட்டான் போலப் பறந்து படம் எடுக்கும் ரிமோட் கேமரா, கதவிடுக்கில் வளைந்து சென்று படம் எடுக்கும் கேமரா எனப் படம் முழுக்க நவீன உத்திகளை அறிமுகப்படுத்திக் கொண்டே இருக்கிறார்கள்.
''நான் ஒரு முஸ்லிம். என் பெயர் தௌபீக்'' என்று சொல்வதைத் தவிர, கமல் ஒரு முஸ்லிம் என்பதற்கான எந்தப் பின்னணி விவரமும் படத்தில் இல்லையே! அப்துல் கலாமோ, ஷாரூக் கானோ... யார், எவராக இருந்தாலும் விமான நிலையத்தில் துகிலுரியும் அமெரிக்காவில், ஓமரும் அவரது தளபதியும் சர்வ சுதந்திரமாக காரில் உலா வருவது, எஃப்.பி.ஐ-க்கு கமலைப் பற்றித் தகவல் தருவது, தனி விமானத்தில் பறப்பதெல்லாம்... லாஜிக் இல்லாத ஆப்கன் பாப்கார்ன். இந்திய உளவுத் துறை அதிகாரி அமெரிக்காவைக் காக்க உயிரைக் கொடுத்துப் போராடுவதும் 'ஹாலிவுட் கதவுக்கு காலிங் பெல்’!
அதிரடி அடிதடி படத்தில் பின்னணி இசையில் டெரர் கூட்டும் ஷங்கர் எஹ்சான் லாயின் இசை, 'உன்னைக் காணாது கண்’ பாடலில் தாலாட்டுகிறது. சானுஜான் வர்கீஸ் ஒளிப்பதிவில் அமெரிக்காவும் ஆப்கன் லொகேஷன் மலைகளும் அழகும் அபாரமுமாக மிரட்டுகிறது.
முன்னரே பல தமிழ்ப் படங்களில் முஸ்லிம் மதத்தைச் சேர்ந்த தீவிரவாதி வில்லன்களைப் பார்த்திருக்கிறோம்தான். ஆனால், கமல் என்கிற நடுநிலையான கலைஞனுக்கு என்று ஒரு சமூகப் பொறுப்பு உண்டல்லவா? அந்த விதத்தில் குர்-ஆன் ஓதிவிட்டுக் கழுத்தை அறுப்பது, வெடிகுண்டை வெடிக்கச் செய்யும் முன் தொழுவது, 'முஸ்லிம் அல்லாதவர்களைக் கொல்ல வேண்டும்’ போன்ற வசனங்களை ஒலிக்கவிட்டுஇருப்பது... தவிர்த்திருக்கலாமே கமல்!
ஆனால், அந்த சர்ச்சைகளைத் தாண்டி இது கமலின் 'விஸ்வரூபம்’தான்!

'Vishwaroopam': People pack 5 am shows in Tamil Nadu, tickets sold out till February 14
Chennai: Actor-director Kamal Haasan's 'Vishwaroopam' has opened to great response in Tamil Nadu with people packing shows as early as 5 AM on Thursday and tickets all over the state are sold out till February 13.
Several factors have helped the film greatly despite being hit by the delay in its release in the state - positive word of mouth, mostly positive reviews, the Kamal Haasan fan factor, anticipation and largely the failure of its two big competitors 'Kadal' and 'David'.
Theatre owners allotted extra screens for 'Vishwaroopam' after Mani Ratnam's 'Kadal' and Bejoy Nambiar's 'David' bombed, reported CNN-IBN correspondent Meenakshi Mahadevan from Chennai. The film was initially supposed to open in 524 theatres but finally made it to 600 theatres across the statetoery
Actor-director Kamal Haasan's 'Vishwaroopam' has opened to great response in Tamil Nadu.
Last evening, Haasan held a special premiere for actors at the Satyam Cinemas in Chennai, attended by Khushbu, Radhika, Mumtaj, Yuvan Sankar Raja, Karthik, AP Sreedhar and Suhasini among others.
Actor Rajinikanth saw the film with his family at his own residence during a special screening.
"I have Vishwaroopam fever. You have to see it to believe it. Don't miss it. It takes one Kamal to overtake the other Kamal. Director takes over the actor," Khushbu tweeted.
Film trade analyst Taran Adarsh said 'Vishwaroop', the Hindi version of the film made a total of Rs 9.96 cr (Mon - 1.19 crore, Tue - 1.11 crore).
The audience response of the film has so far been great as evident from film critic Sudhish Kamath's tweet. "Halfway through Vishwaroopam. Already got my money's worth," Kamath said. "Finally a solid spy thriller out of India. Surprising amount of restraint even in the climax! Didn't expect it to be so good," he said.
Independent film critic Sreedhar Pillai said: "Vishwaroopam again in Auro 6 Degrees. Lot of K.wood celebs like Karthi, Gautham Menon & many others."
Musician Yuvanshankar Raja tweeted: "Just watched Vishwaroopam. Amazing effort by Kamal sir and team. Really happy for him. Good luck to the whole team of Vishwaroopam."
Adarsh said the Tamil film is faring exceptionally well in the USA and UK, despite new releases.
Tamil Nadu's date with 'Vishwaroopam' finally arrived. Ending the 10-day-long wait, Haasan's Rs 95 crore film finally hit the screens on Thursday in Tamil Nadu. The Madras High Court had on Monday closed all petitions filed by the actor against the prohibitory orders invoked by the state administration to prevent its screening.
Haasan on Monday withdrew his petition before the Madras High Court challenging the ban, a move that could see the early release of his mega-budget movie. Justice S Rajeswaran, before whom the matter came up, allowed the actor and government to withdraw pleas after they expressed their desire to do so following a compromise between Haasan and Muslim outfits, which had opposed it claiming some scenes offended their sentiments.
District Collectors revoked prohibitory orders under which the release was banned on January 23 after the outfits came out strongly against the Rs 100 crore movie.
