We can't do this as it will mess the time issue, and Kalyan won't be able to edit or add polls in future.
We have merged those with MMA thread 2. Please continue discussions here. Thanks.

Maddy role cant be replaced by others, be it Vijay or Ajith! And his respect on kamal haasan is constant.
Kelvi kekkaama pannittu poittaaru! Now that doesn't mean he dont have any worries! I guess its not easy for him to show his unsatisfaction about title order or the pairing, either publicly or personally to kamal! Maybe avar KSR kitta thaniyaa solli kavalappatrukkalaam, if they had some prsonal rappapport!
But maddy politely expressed somethings in yesterda's kalaigner tv interview! I guess thats about the wonder ppl has regarding the pairing! Ok, its decided that the pairing is shown in very end and instant. Maddy wud have thought atleast some justification were shown on screen. So he said that there was a scene where he was fighting with his mom and that scene was cut. And at some other point, he said that in last 3 hindi films he did, there wasn't one deleted scene and they did reharsal for months! And he politely said "illa sir, namma padathula, konjam edit pannirukkom"
Maddy, ummela mariyaatha varuthuiyaa!! Thamizhla nala scriptaa select panni nadiyaa!!

Even after she thrusts Oviya in, Madhavan continues to be disinterested in her.
I think the confrontation would have been an important scene.
Would have laid the background for Madhavan's trip.

மிச்சமில்லாமல் துடைக்கப்பட்ட கிச்சனிலும் பெருங்காய வாசனை இருக்குமல்லவா? கிரேஸி மோகன் இல்லாத 'கிச்சன்' இது. ஆனால் தொட்ட குறையாக தொடர்கிறது வாசனை மட்டும்! அதுவும் கடைசி சில நிமிடங்கள், டிபிக்கல் கிரேஸி படம்!
ஒரு நடிகையின் விடுமுறை நாட்களில் அவரை வேவு பார்க்க நுழையும் மேஜர் கமல், மெல்ல மெல்ல அந்த நடிகையின் மனசுக்குள் 'மைனராக' நுழைவதுதான் கதை! வேவு பார்க்க அனுப்பும் மாதவன்தான் நடிகை த்ரிஷாவின் காதலன். கொஞ்சம் காதல், கொஞ்சம் கோபம், கொஞ்சம் சிரிப்பு, கொஞ்சம் அழுகை என்று சகலவிதமான சென்ட்டிமென்ட்டுக்குள்ளும் சிக்கிக் கொண்டு அரைபட்டிருக்கிறது இந்த பழகிப் போன மாவு.
பிரபல நடிகை த்ரிஷாவை அவர் நடித்துக் கொண்டிருக்கும் படம் ஒன்றின் ஷ§ட்டிங் ஸ்பாட்டுக்கே பெண் பார்க்க வருகிறார்கள் மாதவனின் அப்பாவும் அம்மாவும். அங்கே நடப்பது எல்லாமே ஆர்த்தோடக்ஸ் பேமிலிக்கு அந்நியமாக தெரிய, "பார்த்துக்கோடா..." என்று செல்லமாக மகனை எச்சரித்துவிட்டு செல்கிறார் அம்மா உஷா உதுப். (மேம், நடிப்பு ரொம்ப சிறப்) மனசுக்குள் இருக்கிற சந்தேக சாத்தான் விழித்துக் கொள்கிறது மாதவனுக்கு. த்ரிஷாவின் கேரவேனுக்குள் ஏறிப்போய் உள்ளேயிருக்கும் கனெக்டிங் கதவை திறந்து செக் பண்ணுகிற அளவுக்கு ஆட்டம் போடுகிறது அது. "செக்ஸ் வச்சுக்கணும்னா அத்தனை பேர் சுத்தியிருக்கும்போதா வச்சுப்பாங்க? வெளிநாட்டுக்கு போயிட மாட்டாங்களா" என்கிற த்ரிஷாவின் வசனம் கிசுகிசு எழுத்தாளர்களுக்கு பலம் சேர்க்கலாம். சண்டை வலுக்கிறது இருவருக்கும். மன அமைதிக்காக வெளிநாடு கிளம்புகிறார் த்ரிஷா. அப்புறம் அங்கு நடப்பதுதான் சுவாரஸ்யம்.
நரையோடிய தாடி, அதையும் மீறி இழையோடும் இளமை என்று ரசிக்க வைக்கிறார் கமல். கேன்சரால் அவதிப்படும் நண்பன் ரமேஷ் அரவிந்தின் மருத்துவ செலவுக்கு பணம் அனுப்ப வேண்டும் என்ற கவலை, தனது மனைவியை விபத்துக்கு பறி கொடுத்துவிட்ட வேதனை, திடீரென்று கிராஸ் பண்ணும் காதல் என்று முப்பரிமாண மோதலில் சிக்கிக் கொள்கிற வேஷம் கமலுக்கு. செட்டியார் பிள்ளைக்கு வட்டிக்கணக்கு சொல்லியா தர வேண்டும்? பின்னி எடுக்கிறார் மனிதர். ஆனால் ஒரு வசனகர்த்தாவாக எள்ளி நகையாடுகிற அவரது பேனா, ஏற்கனவே நொந்து போயிருக்கும் ஈழத் தமிழனை பதம் பார்த்திருக்க வேண்டாம். இன்னொரு காட்சியில் மாதவன் வாயால் சொல்லப்படுகிறது இந்த வசனம். மெல்ல தமிழ் இனி சாகும்... (படம் நெடுகிலும் பேசப்படும் ஆங்கில வசனங்கள் அதை உறுதிபடுத்துகிறது கலைஞானி அவர்களே...) இதுவாவது பரவாயில்லை. கமலே சொல்கிறார், தமிழ் தெரு பொறுக்கும் என்று!
நல்லவேளை, இதே கமலின் எழுத்தை ரசிக்கவும் ஏராளமான சாய்ஸ் இருக்கிறது ம.அ வில். 'வீரத்தோட மறுபக்கம் மன்னிப்பு. வீரத்தோட உச்சக்கட்டம் அகிம்சை'.
த்ரிஷாவின் அழகில் சில மில்லி கிராம்கள் சேதாரம் ஆகியிருக்கிறது. ஆனால் அதுவே அவரது கோபத்தை இயற்கையாக வெளிப்படுத்துவதால், 'இருந்துட்டு போகட்டுமே...' சொந்த குரலில் பேசியிருக்கிறார். தொடருங்கள் தாயி!
இரண்டு குழந்தைகளுக்கு அம்மா, சமீபத்தில்தான் டைவர்ஸ். கை நிறைய ஜீவனாம்சம் என்று சங்கீதாவின் கேரக்டரும் அவர் பேசும் வசனங்களும் குறைவில்லாத சுவாரஸ்யத்தை மூட்டுகிறது. கமலை பார்த்து 'செம கட்டை' என்று வர்ணிப்பதும், இறுதியில் மாதவனை வளைத்துக் கொள்வதுமாக ஒரே சங்கேத ஆலாபனைதான் சங்கீதாவிடம். இவரது குழந்தைகளில் அந்த பொடியன் ஆஷிஸ் செம துறுதுறுப்பு. 'து£ங்குற குழந்தைக்கு கட்டைவிரல் ஆடும்...' சங்கீதாவை ஏமாற்ற பொடியன் கட்டைவிரல் ஆட்டுகிற காட்சியில் சொல்லி வைத்தாற் போல தியேட்டரில் அத்தனை பேரும் சிரிக்கிறார்கள்.
தமிழ்சினிமாவில் குடிகாரர்களின் வேடத்தை யார் ஏற்றாலும் அதனுடைய 'ஃபுல்' வரைக்கும் போவார்கள். மாதவன் அதையும் தாண்டி போயிருக்கிறார். டாய்லெட்டுக்குள் விழுந்த செல்போனை வைத்துக் கொண்டு அவர் பேசுகிற காட்சிக்கெல்லாம் குடிகாரர்களே சிரித்து போதை தெளிவார்கள்.
"இந்தாங்கோ. பஜ்ஜி ஷாப்டுங்கோ..." என்ற இத்துனு£ண்டு வசனத்தை பேசுவதற்காக நு£று நாள் ஓடிய படத்தின் நாயகி ஓவியா! பெரிய வீட்டு கல்யாணமல்லவா? பல் குத்த தங்க ஊசி. ஹ்ம்...
சாலை விபத்திற்கு பின் கவலையோடு வானத்தை அண்ணாந்து பார்க்கும் த்ரிஷா, அங்கு பறவை கூட்டங்களை பார்ப்பதை ஒரு காட்சியாகவும், பின்னொரு சந்தர்பத்தில் அதே பறவை கூட்டம் கமல் கண்களுக்கு தென்படுவதுமாக, வெறும் காட்சியிலேயே விஷயம் சொல்லியிருக்கிறார் கே.எஸ்.ரவிகுமார். இவர் ஸ்டைலுக்கு இது புதுசல்லவா?
மனசு முழுக்க மயக்கத்தை நிரப்பியிருக்கிறது மனுஷ் நந்தனின் ஒளிப்பதிவு. அந்த கப்பல்... சந்தேகமேயில்லை. அற்புதமான விஷ§வல் ட்ரிட்! மிக நேர்த்தியான எடிட்டிங் (என்று சொல்லதான் ஆசை) ஆனால் படம் மூன்று மணித்துளிகளை தாண்டுகிறதே ஐயா...? நீலவானம் பாடலிலும், சாம பேத தான தண்டத்திலும், தேவிஸ்ரீபிரசாத் ஈர்க்கிறார்.
'விண்'மதன் அம்பு!

In my humble opinion
MA is good, nice film..... But honestly, intha character ku Kamal thevaiya? Kamal was a bit over qualified for that character

like how the cruise was for the story set up... rich potential drastically under used
Athukku Maddy, Usha uthup (a big wow even if she came in only 2-3 scenes..), Ramesh, Sangeetha and even Trisha had meaty roles.. Kamal in general is accused of taking the best of characters in his films and making others, but here other characters had better chance.....
and climax... many here had a opinion that it is Crazy-Mohan like... but enakku ennamo Yes Boss-ish type of climax maadhiri feel vanthathu (i have watched only 3-4 hindi movies in my entire life time and yes boss is one of them

)

Initial intro song and the act before that was to praise/show off his saagasam capabilities, ok.
Then, he was forced to bluff and thagudu thathom was ok for that. But after that what does he do???
Continue the same bluff which is useful only to evoke few laughters, move the story.
After that, his flashback is shared and trisha falls in love. Then both exchange some tamil literary stuff(even kettaan??)
All through the movie, he brings out trademark rationalist then and there.
Then climax comes, confusion, subam!
Seriously what does the actor kamal does here?!? Is the subtleness and controlled act a new thingi?!?
I ask this becos its he whom gets projected in all ads, promos, or else, he thought that dialog and scriptwriter kamalhaasan is enuf and the actor can be used less, then i wonder why a cruise, quite a big budget, extended promo in singapore et, just for this?!?
is this a high budget, modern day time-filler?

thanks Bala, but the credit goes to your thinking cap which I borrowed for a short while.
Initially i wanted either "MahavishNu" or "MagEsar/MagEswarar" instead of mAmannar, since the latter sounded like 'mamanAr' when read in English. Anyway, settled for the current title as time was running out. would be very glad to alter the title if you have any good suggestions.
watching the movie again this evening. in the meantime, pls think of some good topic for the poll.

Kid didnt mean to recover it from the BO, he meant that the phamily has other means of recovering it even in the unlikely scenario that the movie doesnt do very well at the BO. But not sure what is the deal between the phamily and gemini films.

Yes it is. It is going strong in the A centres, No ideas about the B and C. With getting released in so many theatres, the opening must be big. Whether it will sustain or not, we have to wait and see

BO point of view, Multiplexes and Overseas and the A Class Audience spread over everywhere will take the movie forward. Family audience will find it a nice treat and even the +ve reviews from Woman Bloggers are hopeful. Few kamal fans(like me) whining and the planned propaganda of anti-kamal elements (

) cannot affect the movie fate.
For me the main worry is, avar perusaa enna achieve panniaar intha padathula! We dont want sustainance and maintainance but much higher elevation of existing talent.

Review
The opulent fare of romantic comedy is less of a treat for senses than it is for the eyes. Handsome people populate the screen and deliver witty dialogues, but the movie as such is not as intelligent despite the presence of Kamal’s legendary antics.
Trade Talk:
Collections during the opening and the subsequent weekend have been phenomenal.
Public Talk:
Kamal’s ubiquitous charm, Trisha’s articulation and Sangeetha’s sparkle.
No. Days Completed: 4
No. Shows in Chennai over this weekend: 494
Average Theatre Occupancy over this weekend: 90%
Collection over this weekend in Chennai: Rs. 94,36,591
Verdict: Good Opening

என்ன காரணம்னு தெரியலை, ப்ளாகர் உலகத்திலும் பலர் இந்தப் படத்தை ரொம்ப இறக்கி விமர்சிச்சுத்தான் எழுதி இருக்காங்க. ப்ளாகர்ஸ் எல்லாம் பொதுவாக கமல் ரசிகர்கள் மற்றும் கமல் படத்தைப் பற்றி நல்லா விமர்சிப்பவர்களே. இந்த முறைதான் இது நடந்திருக்கு..

எனக்கென்னமோ அப்படி தெரியல. எப்போதுமே கமல் படத்தை அது வெளியாகும் போது ஆயிரம் நொட்டைகள் சொல்லி, கொஞ்ச வருடங்கள் ஆன பிறகு சொரணையேயில்லாமல் தூக்கிக் கொண்டாடும் பொழப்புதான் பெரும்பாலான பதிவர்கள் செய்வது. கருத்து சொல்வது ஏதோ ஏப்பம் விடுவது போல மலிவான ஒன்றாகிவிட்டது வலைப்பதிவுகளில்.

தவறில்லை அன்பன். நாமெல்லாம் (பொதுவா) சினிமா பார்த்துதானே வளர்ந்திருக்கோம். புதிய விஷயங்களை கற்றுக்கொள்வதற்கும் ஒரு வழியா சினிமா ஊடகம் பலருக்கு உதவி செய்துகொண்டுதான் இருக்கிறது. ஆங்கில வசனங்கள் ஒரு பக்கம் என்றால், அதிகமாக புழங்காத பல நல்ல தமிழ்ப் பதங்களை கமல் இதிலும் பயன்படுத்தியிருக்கிறார். ஆங்கில வசனங்கள் அன்னியமா இருக்குன்னு சொல்றவங்க தமிழ்ப் பதங்களை பற்றி இதுபோல விமர்சனம் செய்வதில்லை. உதாரணம் - "அதுல என்னங்க அகௌரவம்?" என்று அம்புவிடம் மன்னார் கேட்கிறார். நாட்டுல எத்தனை தமிழ் மக்கள் "அகௌரவம்" என்ற பதத்தை பயன்படுத்துகிறார்கள் தற்போது? என்னைப் பொறுத்தவரை ஆங்கிலம், தமிழ் இரண்டிலும் ஒரே சீரா போகிறார் கமல். ரொம்ப ஆரோக்யமா!

English usage (for example the above one) should be viewed according to the character uttering them. Trisha and Maddy are portrayed as affluent upper class, so this kind of usage is acceptable. If Trisha and Madhavan had the conversation in sutha tamil or any other version of tamil, it won't be natural.
Even real life we (most people, not everyone) mix most english words in any ordinary tamil sentence.
Let's not underestimate our audience. And even if they don't understand a specific english dialogue, its alright. Its not going to spoil the flow.
Other than a scene in Venice/Paris where thalaivar has a conversation with a small fountain in the background, the voice quality of live sound was exceptional. I won't even term it as average.

Manmadhan Ambu did not stick up to its hype created, in my opinion.
The first half was entertaining at parts, but doesn't keep the audience stuck on their seats.
The second half got better until the last 30 mins, that just messed up the whole movie for me, they made it too complicated.

took my mother to the movie yesterday. enjoyed it even more. especiallly those finer things like sema kattAyamA, sUrppa nadigai, mUdhirikkaNum, kAvi shirt, birds flying, seat belt removing etc.
I reiterate, Maddy was chanceless, not an inch of over action except those final parts which was intended to be comical anyway. even if the character is possessive and has negative undertones, you cant stop loving him. especially rendering the lines 'thozhiladhibar nadigaiyai maNakka maRuppu' in a drunken stupor.
the respect I had for Kamal the writer has increased manyfold after this movie.
Again, good performance from Sangeetha and the elder kid.
I somehow loved both DSP's songs and the BGM. they kept us engaged in the plot. My mother too enjoyed the movie, to my relief.
Theatre occupancy 50%. But the facial expressions at the end of the movie was a strong indicator that most of them enjoyed it.

watched it second time with family at Satyam... i think it is housefull.. the response was good.
climax was bearable now.. and the funny lines worked lot better now..the pairing was also sort of okay.. there are few scenes which indicate both are falling for each other. But felt the first half was not that much intresting as I knew whats gonna happen.
Maddy is rocking in the first half.. liked trisha's acting more this time than Sangeetha..
my son was not that much intrested, but a big relief was there is no violence.[ he will start crying when hero gets into a fight and get hit..] when the taxi driver came he asked is he the hero?
my wife after the movie " u said the second half was not good? but I liked it too.. but didnt get many Madhavan's dialogues clearly. need to watch it again

The big problem is the theatres. All cities have not got multiplexes which got silent audience and good audio setup. So it is very difficult to get what they. I had this horrible experince in a theater in Hosur.

Watched with my wife second time yesterday evening at Prasads , Hyderabad. One big group sitting on the right wing facing the screen was clapping and whistling at all the right moments. Few empty seats in the frontmost row. Otherwise packed theatre. Full of families. Too many kids .... so lot of crying, playing,restlessness etc.
Liked second half better this time. My wife is ready for third time watching also !!
Some Thalaivar nuances I noted this time ---
# When Major Mannar opens Ambu's wallet in the intro scene, a photograph of Ambu and Madanagopal is obvious .... first signal that she is still in love with him
# The day Major decides to do thagidu thatham, he is dressed in kaavi colour. The day he decides to confess everything to Trisha, he is dressed in full black. ( but he postpones the confession )
# When Major gets the shock of his life from Madhan who calls off the deal and cuts the phone call, the background LCD display shows a footballer giving a mega kick symbolising the event. ( The same football guy dances for Thagidu thatham )
# When Major tells Mallika "Dont worry .... enakku oru clear route theriyudhu", he hits a dead end.
# When major confirms to Madhan that Ambu is following typical mating ritual body language by twirling her hair with fingers, Major himself has his left hand into his pant pocket, "the male mating body language" as explained by Madhan.
# At the peak of confusion, when Major takes Vish to pee , he tries to open an automatic sliding door in the hotel with his hands and gets slightly shocked when it opens on its own suddenly
# In the climax, Madhan gets pissed off at Major and angrily thrusts his hand into the pant pocket ..... Major immediately looks across at the railing of the bridge wanting to jump into the river thinking that Madhan is going to pull out a pistol. But, Madhan pulls out his whisky can and takes some angry gulps instead.

I agree. But there is no need to show the entire song rite...? Especially when it is only 5 days since it's release and expecting a complete packed house for the weekend

The Highlights of Charu's review..
அதைப் பற்றி ஆட்சேபிக்க எனக்கு உரிமை இல்லை.
பொதுவாக எனக்கு கமல்ஹாசனின் நகைச்சுவை படங்கள் பிடிக்கும்[/b].
ஏதோ ஒரு ட்ராமா கம்பெனியின் படு மோசமான ட்ராமாவை 25 ஆண்டுகளாக தொடர்ந்து பார்த்து வருவதைப் போன்ற அலுப்பைத் தருகிறது
மற்றபடி இந்தப் படம் 1946-இல் வெளிவந்த Romance on the High Seas என்ற படத்தின் அப்பட்டமான காப்பி என்பது பற்றி நான் அதிகம் கவலைப்படவில்லை

# When Major gets the shock of his life from Madhan who calls off the deal and cuts the phone call, the background LCD display shows a footballer giving a mega kick symbolising the event. ( The same football guy dances for Thagidu thatham )
# When Major tells Mallika "Dont worry .... enakku oru clear route theriyudhu", he hits a dead end.
# When major confirms to Madhan that Ambu is following typical mating ritual body language by twirling her hair with fingers, Major himself has his left hand into his pant pocket, "the male mating body language" as explained by Madhan.
# At the peak of confusion, when Major takes Vish to pee , he tries to open an automatic sliding door in the hotel with his hands and gets slightly shocked when it opens on its own suddenly
# In the climax, Madhan gets pissed off at Major and angrily thrusts his hand into the pant pocket ..... Major immediately looks across at the railing of the bridge wanting to jump into the river thinking that Madhan is going to pull out a pistol. But, Madhan pulls out his whisky can and takes some angry gulps instead.

Interesting write-up about Technic used in Neelavaanam song
http://www.sasariri.com/2010/12/blog-post_26.html
இப்படி தலைகீழாக அந்தப் பாடலின் படமாக்கத்திற்கு யோசித்தது மட்டுமல்ல, தலைகீழ்ப் பாடலில் நேரான உதட்டசைப்புக்குப் பின் இருக்கும் பிரமாத உழைப்பு பிரமிக்க வைக்கிறது.
சாதாரண ஷாட்டுகளுக்கு விநாடிக்கு 24 ஃப்ரேம்கள் செட் செய்தால் ஸ்லோமோஷனுக்கு 60 ஃப்ரேம்கள் செட் செய்து கொள்வார்கள். நாகராவில் பாட்டை வேகமாக ஓட வைத்து நடிகர்களை நடிக்கவைத்து பட்மெடுத்து விடுவார்கள். இதை ஸ்லோமோஷனில் ஓட்டும்போது பாடலின் சாதாரண வேகத்துக்கேற்ப உதடசைவுகள் பொருந்தும்… ஆனால் உடல் / அங்க அசைவுகள் மெதுவாக நிகழும்.
நீலவானம் பாடலில் கிட்டத்த்ட்ட அந்த முறை என்றாலும் இதில் காட்சிகளை நாம் காண்பது ரிவர்ஸ் ஸ்லோமோஷனில். அப்பொழுது பாடல் வரிகள் உதட்டசைவிற்கு பொருந்த வேண்டுமென்றால் எப்படி படம்பிடித்திருப்பார்கள் என்பதுதான் கேள்வி.
நடிக்கும்போதே பின்புறமாக நடிப்பது சாத்தியமில்லை. ஏனென்றால் ஏகபட்ட நடிகர்கள் ஷாட்டில் தெரிகிறார்கள். பாடலை ரிவர்ஸில் ஓடவிட்டு உதட்டசைப்பது முடியாத காரியம் என்று நினைக்கிறேன். அதுதான் அந்த விஷயத்தில் பிரமிப்பானது.

Maddy said in a recent interview, most of the hindi films are live sound. and its the future.
i dont understand. speakers are not the same all the theatres and the creater cannot force something which is not available in all theatres.
and why it shud be live, when for many years its been dubbed?
sound means both dialogs and music. so you will play the song live in the shooting spot??
another way of asking is, whats the exact problem in the current setup

Dubbing is an extremely artificial process and when it comes to realism in acting and emoting, a hindrance. It doesn't surprise me that Kamal Haasan and Madhavan would be among the proponents of live sound.

MMA is kamal's feel free movie with extra mix of love. Technical aspects la kandippa live recording varaverka vendiya oru vishayam thaan but dont know y its not clear in many scences. Apart from tht cinematography and BGM are really good.
Making of NEELA VAANAM was excellent. I want to go again to watch tht song in big screen.Maddy's role was little confusing he is almost crying for his love but all of sudden he fell in love with sangeetha in climax unable to accept.MMA is not bad movie and also is not superb one its an average from kamal sir.

Initially many HC Kamal fans disliked the movie! If a fan dislikes his icon's movie, and that disliking best basis to justify his dislike, how can it be correct? Isn't it public verdict the deciding factor??
Even now, many kamal fans disagree with climax and agree that some mokkais thrown all over shud have been avoided.
That Kamal haasan has a cult doesn't mean kamal shud make a movie only for them, rather he always makes movies for general public, inspite of kamalisms thrown everywhere.
One small difference to point out is, except the professional bluff he does to maddy, he doesn't involve into that drama in climax. thats a surprise for me, the lead character itself saying (after the whole drama is over) "naan appove sonnen, poi thaniyaa varaathu, ithellam veNaamnu"

Well, I agree with them that the live sound is problematic sometimes in MMA. But I don't think this has anything to do with the value of live sound itself as a process (the rest of world doesn't seem to have a problem with it).
When the first photograph ever was taken, I'm sure some people said "it's too blurry and rough, let's stick to paintings." Obviously since live sound isn't popular in South films yet, the execution in MMA isn't perfect (although not nearly as bad as some bloggers think). But the initial attempts anything aren't the best, only later does it smooth out. no point in being the last ones on the planet clinging to dubbing when everyone else realized live sound is the way to go a long time ago. I'm glad KH is making a push towards it with MMA.

Unlikely. Hey Ram had SRK and others dub in their original voices, not live sounds. Virumaandi got enough publicity in being the first movie in decades to feature live sound recording. It is impossible for Ayutha Ezhuththu to have live sound as at least two main characters in the movie used dubbing voices (Eesa and treesa).

Kanimozhi has live recording

On the difficulties involved in live recording, the source says: "The rent for camera will be high in normal shootings. But for films using live recording, the rent for the high quality recorder is higher than that of camera."

I am wrong.
Live sound recording was originally used in making of films in its inital days.
I just remembered that the whole music troupe will follow the camera, where the actor and actress would be singing live with BGM played in the background.
Of course I am talking of pre-MKT days

The reason why all them had to use thier own voice was becos it was live sound recording.

anna, i had specifically mentioned 'first time in decades' which means that at least 10-20 years from the time of release, not 'first time ever'.

Watched MMA two days back and was going through the posts here. Surprised to read about the negative reviews from bloggers.
It's a thoroughly enjoyable movie on all aspects and is worth repeat viewings. Superb acting by Maddy, Sangeetha and Trisha. Kamal was in his usual elements and his dialogs stood out in many places.
Completely blown away by Neelavaanam song. Never expected anything or read any info about this song before watching this. The reverse sync attempt constructing the events in such detail is simply brilliant.

Watched in Sathyam last Sunday matinee show. The film is good in parts, much better than MX. Kamal has definitely learnt a lot from MX debacle, but not fully in my opinion. One of the key lessons learnt is in setting the expectations right in the press meet that "this is not a full length comedy", but the problem is that this message did not reach properly. There was never a dull moment unlike MX, but at the same time, the pace was not gripping either.
Moments I liked (partial list):
* Kamal telling Oorvasi that he has found a clear route. The next long shot showing he has hit the closed wall of a church.
* Voice modulation for the dialogue "Nadu theruvula nikkaraen"
* Neela vaanam picturization. I felt there was a conscious effort from Kamal in getting the lip sync correctly. It looked a bit odd to me, but nevertheless, great effort by the team.
* Title track by DSP. But he sounded more like ARR. It sad that the title track is not included in the audio cd.
Moments I disliked:
* Kamal pairing up with Trisha is justifiable to an extent. There were ample scenes that shows Trisha's inclination towards Kamal. Further, she is guilty of killing his wife, so it is justifiable that the guilty has transformed into love. But they should have avoided Maddy & Sangeetha pairing and should have left them as they are.
* Jarring live sound (that too in a top class theatre). I feel the live sound was not properly done in some scenes. I feel very much disappointed that Kamal being a perfectionist didn't notice this! If MX's video was grainy, MMA's live sound is pathetic in some sences. As someone pointed out, why not the song recording done with orchestra playing live at the spots? Why only for the dialogues? And why not live sound for the Telugu version - Language barrier cannot be reason as SRK has dubbed his own voice in Hey Ram, but cost may be the reason, even in that case can't Kamal convince the producer? In my view, if the majority of the theatres are not equipped with good sound system, why shouldn't these guys go back to dubbing?
* Rushed up climax. The purpose of Maddy's visit to Venice was not clear. Was it for patching up with Trisha or breaking it once for all?
On the whole, MMA is much better than MX (that lacked pace, though I liked MX's last 30 mins more than MMA's), but failed to satisfy me on the first viewing, as I was more anxious in gauging the audience response, I didn't focus properly. Anyways, I will watch it again this weekend with the family. I hope the "Moments I liked" will definitely grow.
MMA = (improvised) MX part 2

Kaathalaa Kaathalaa climax - i will not at all call it complicated! Infact with that many characters, it was still understandable and enjoyable too!
(Kamal, PD, 2 heroines, gurkha, that paatti, mouli, MSV, srividya, Kovai Sarala, that kids, Haneefa, Crazy mohan, Cho, Vadivelu that makes 14!)
But here, that characters were far less, just one third(kamal, maddy, trisa, sangeeta, kurup, kids, srilanka guy) but they spoke more and the comic lines were too too thin! Another blunder is, except maddy, the whole comic characters were setup just too fast! Sangeeta was never a full-comic and once she boosed, entire things changes! That was too fast for audience.
The total no of audience liking and calling the climax comedy a riot, wont exceed the no of characters in the film! Not good i say!
Problem is, suppose if you get a chance to let haasar know about P_R & his family, P_R orutharukku pudichirukku appadingratha vachikittu, romba perukku pudikkumgra maathiri sollittu, (even thats fine) pudikkaathavanga, puriyaathavanga ellaam ennamo Pandithargal rangela vachi thittuvaaru!

Not sure why there are some bad reviews about the movie..
Thoroughly enjoyed the movie with family.. No dull moments.. Felt the movie was properly paced.. Lot of one liners added value to the movie..
Bit disappointed since the "Kavithai" was not there...

ஓர் அழகான நடிகை. அவளுக்கு ஒரு சந்தேகக் காதலன். காதலியைக் கண்காணிக்க நியமிக்கப்படுகிற உளவாளி. காதல், சந்தேகம், உளவு இம்மூன்றுக்கும் நடக்கிற மியூசிக் சேர் தள்ளுமுள்ளுதான் ‘மன்மதன் அம்பு’.
ஒரு பக்கம் பண நெருக்கடி,இன்னொரு பக்கம் மூன்றாம் தர வேலையில் ஈடுபடுகிற தயக்கம் என வேவு பார்க்கும் மேஜர் மன்னாராக கமல் புகுந்து விளையாடியிருக்கிறார்.தான் கொடுக்கிற உண்மையான ரிப்போர்ட்டே தன் வேலைக்கு ஆப்பு வைக்கும்போது,கமல் தொண்டையைச் செருமிக்கொண்டு பொய் சொல்லத் தயாராகும் காட்சி விசில் அடிக்க வைக்கிறது.இந்த கர்வச் செருமல் அத்தோடு முடிந்துவிடுவதுதான் ஏமாற்றம்.
சந்தேகப் பார்வை, பணத்திமிர், போதைத் தள்ளாட்டம் என ஏறக்குறைய அசட்டு வில்லனாகி விடுகிற கேரக்டரை மாதவன் கொண்டாடி நடித்திருக்கிறார். நடிகை நிஷாவாக வரும் த்ரிஷாவிடம் சொந்தக் குரல், இயல்பான எக்ஸ்பிரஷன்கள், அளவான மேக்கப் என எக்கச்சக்க இனிய ஆச்சர்யங்கள். ஒத்துவராத கணவனை விவாகரத்து செய்துவிட்டு, ‘சூப்பர் ஜீவனாம்சம்’ என ஆறுதல் பட்டுக்கொள்கிற சங்கீதாவின் கேரக்டர் தமிழ் சினிமாவில் இதுவரை பார்த்திராதது. உருவத்தையே மாற்றிக்கொள்ளும் கமலின் வேலையை இந்தப் படத்தில் ரமேஷ் அரவிந்த் செய்திருக்கிறார். ‘கொஞ்சம் சேட்டிங், கொஞ்சம் வாமிட்டிங்’ என ரமேஷ் ஜோக் அடித்து புற்றுநோயின் வலியை மறைக்கிற வீடியோ கான்ஃப்ரன்ஸ் காட்சிகள் மனசைப் பிசைந்தாலும், ஓரளவுக்கு மேல் ஓவர் டோஸ். அவரது மனைவி ஊர்வசி உட்கார்ந்த இடத்தை மாற்றாமல் கமலுடன் போனில் அழும் காட்சிகளுக்கு தியேட்டரில் போகப் போக ‘சும்மா பயமுறுத்தாதம்மா’ ரெஸ்பான்ஸ்.
கமலின் மனைவியாக வருகிற பிரெஞ்சு அழகியைக் கண்டுபிடித்த கண்களுக்கு சபாஷ் போடலாம். கமலின் திருமண வாழ்க்கையை ஒரே பாடலில் முழுக்க முழுக்க ரிவர்ஸ் மோடில் சம்பவங்களைக் காட்டியே சொல்லி விடுவது அருமை. ”நேர்மையா இருக்குறவங்களுக்கு திமிர்தான் வேலி’’ போன்ற வசனங்களில் கமலின் டச் மின்னுகிறது.
மஞ்சள் வெயில் அடிக்கும் பார்சிலோனா,அழகு துள்ளும் லொக்கேஷன்கள்,பிரமாண்டமான கப்பல் பயணம் என தனக்குக் கிடைத்த ப்ளஸ் பாயிண்ட்களை அறிமுக ஒளிப்பதிவாளர் மனுஷ்நந்தன் சரியாகப் பயன்படுத்தியிருக்கிறார். ‘ஹூஸ் தி ஹீரோ?’, ‘தகிடுதத்தோம்’ பாடல்களில் தேவிஸ்ரீ பிரசாத் தாளம் போட வைக்கிறார்.
கமலின் உளவு வேலை தெரிந்தால் த்ரிஷா என்ன செய்வார், த்ரிஷாவுக்கு மாதவன் விடுகிற தந்திர அம்பே அவருக்கு ஆப்பாக மாறும்போது அவரது ரெஸ்பான்ஸ் என்ன... என பதற்றக்-கேள்விகளோடு நாம் காத்திருக்க, ‘சேச்சே, சீரியஸா எடுத்துக்காதீங்க, சும்மா சிரிச்சுட்டுப் போங்க’ என்று கிச்சு கிச்சு நாடகம் போட்டு கமல் குரூப் நம்மை ஏமாற்றி விடுவது மன்மத அல்வா. அபத்தமாகப் பேசி, ஆளுக்கு ஆள் அசடுவழிந்து, தலையைச் சுற்றி மூக்கைத் தொடும் கலாட்டா கமலுக்குச் சலிக்கவே செய்யாதா? முதல் பாதியில் முதிர்ச்சியாக வருகிற கேரக்டர்கள் எல்லாம் திடீரென தடம் புரண்டு தத்துபித்து ஆகிவிடுகிற இரண்டாம் பாதியை இயக்குநர் கே.எஸ்.ரவிக்குமார் கட்டுப்-படுத்தியிருந்தால் மன்மதன் அம்பு இன்னும் வலுவாகத் துளைத்திருக்கும்.
சரி, மன்னாரு, மதன கோபால், அம்புஜாஸ்ரீ என கேரக்டர்களுக்கு பெயர் வைத்து இத்தனை கஷ்டப்பட்டிருக்க வேண்டுமா?.
Verdict: OK

There are two type of ppl among those who like MMA
1st ones are almost like Kumudam Review( ivingala kooda tharamaana vimarsanam panna vachittaar thalaivar
) Their -ve points are logical and worthy.
காக்டெயில் பார்ட்டி மாதிரி நளினமாகத்தான் விருந்து தொடங்குகிறது.கடைசியில்....?
இந்த கர்வச் செருமல் அத்தோடு முடிந்துவிடுவதுதான் ஏமாற்றம்.
ஊர்வசி அழும் காட்சிகளுக்கு தியேட்டரில் போகப் போக ‘சும்மா பயமுறுத்தாதம்மா’ ரெஸ்பான்ஸ்.
பதற்றக்-கேள்விகளோடு நாம் காத்திருக்க, ‘சேச்சே, சீரியஸா எடுத்துக்காதீங்க, சும்மா சிரிச்சுட்டுப் போங்க’ என்று கமல் குரூப் நம்மை ஏமாற்றி விடுவது மன்மத அல்வா.
அபத்தமாகப் பேசி, ஆளுக்கு ஆள் அசடுவழிந்து, தலையைச் சுற்றி மூக்கைத் தொடும் கலாட்டா கமலுக்குச் சலிக்கவே செய்யாதா?
2nd ones are the happy go lucky guys who just enjoy the film. The movie works best for them!
I agree with both the parties. Both are concerned and dont give -ve review like some bloggers who just to show their arivujeevithanam(which infact is NOT there with them!)

In chennai, that too Multiplexes, MMA is very bright.
Advance booking was poor in Mayajal, now they increased the daily shows from 45 to 48.
Vadapalani, Kamala (2 Screens) and AVM Rajeswari are very nearby, its reportedly full in weekdays.
Satyam is continuing the 12 shows perday in weekdays, which is uspposed to be limited only to weekends.

தெகாவின் விமர்சனம் நன்றாக இருந்தது. பின்னூட்டங்களில் கவனிக்க வேண்டியது..

கமலைத் திட்டுவது இங்கு எழுதும் பெரும்பாலோர்க்கு முன்முடிவு செய்யப் பட்ட விஷயம்போலத் தெரிகிறது - அதற்கானக் காரணங்களை நுணுக்கமாகத் திரைப்படங்களில் தேடிக் கண்டுபிடித்துக் கொண்டிருக்கின்றார்கள். என்னுடன் இந்தப் படம் பார்த்த அனைவரும் படத்தை enjoy பண்ணி பார்த்தார்கள் - உங்களுடையது மட்டும் தான் என் மனநிலைக்குச் சற்று ஒத்துப் போகும் review. திட்டி எழுதிய ஒருத்தரால் கூட நீல வானம் பாடலின் சிறப்பைப் பற்றி ஒரு வரி கூட எழுத முடியவில்லை.

என்னுடைய பார்வையில் கமல் படம் என்பது ரசிக்க ருசிக்க வெறுக்க என்று எல்லாமே இருக்கும்.
நாம் எதை எடுத்துக் கொள்கிறோம் என்பதும் நம் ரசனையின் தகுதியின் எந்த அளவிற்கு இருக்கிறது என்பதையும் வைத்து தான் இந்த மூன்றின் அளவீடுகளை உணர்ந்து கொள்ள முடியும்.

Saw MMA in Prasadz last saturday.
Nice movie.
Kamal's intro was cool. Neelavaanam song was very good. Kamal, Trisha, Madhavan, Sangeetha did their part well.
The movie was very enjoyable for me till the climax started. After that it was total downhill. I did not find most of the jokes funny. But, there was awesome awesome response in the theater for the last 30 mins. Everyone was laughing loud. The person with whom i went understands only very little tamil and was starring at me surprisingly because i was the only one not laughing in my entire row.
innoru vaati paakanum. i lost some jokes while translating previous jokes.

சிறுவன் விஷ்-ன் பாத்திரப் படைப்பு ரொம்ப நேர்த்தியாய் செதுக்கப்பட்டிருக்கிறது. அந்த வயசுக்கே உரிய குறும்பு, விட்டுக்கொடுக்காத தன்மை.
--
முதல் முதலாக அம்பு கூட்டத்தோடு மன்னார் உணவருந்தும் இடம். யார் அதிக நேரம் ஸ்பூனை உதட்டில் கவ்வுறாங்க என்ற போட்டி.
கேமரா அம்புவிடம் இருந்து ஆரம்பித்து கடைசியாய் மன்னாரி டம் முடிவடைகிறது. ஒவ்வொருவரிடமிருந்தும் ஒரு சில விநாடிகளிலேயே ஸ்பூன் கீழே விழுந்து விடும்.
விஷ்: "எனக்குதான் விழவேயில்லையே! இல்லை மேஜர்?" எனச் சொல்லிக்கொண்டே மேஜரை பார்ப்பான். அவன் ஸ்பூனும் கீழே விழுந்து விடும்.
மேஜர் (இன்னும் ஸ்பூனை கவ்விக்கொண்டே) "ம்ம்"
(மேஜர் ஜெயிக்கிறது பொறுக்காமல்..)
விஷ்: "எடுங்க!" (என அவனோட கீழே விழுந்த ஸ்பூனை எடுத்து தரச் சொல்லுவான். )
அதைத் தொடர்ந்த காட்சியில் மதனிடம் செல்பேசியில் மன்னார் தெலுங்கில் உரையாடும் போது விஷ் ஸ்பூனை கவ்வி முயற்சி செய்து கொண்டிருப்பான்.

In that Kamal kavithai, one of the so-called controversial, objectionable lines, as mentioned by Hindu munnaNi and few bloggers is - "காமக் கழிவுகள் கழுவும் வேளையும் கூட நின்றவன் உதவிட வேண்டும்"
What bloggers( including
saaru!) ask is, will kamal dare to ask so to ppl of other religions.
This is another line in that same poem -
எக்குலமானால் என்ன என்று வேற்று மதம் வரை தேடிப்போனேன்
வரவரப் புருஷ லட்சணம் உள்ளவர் திருமணச் சந்தயில் மிகமிகக் குறைவு
and, to add with, few lines from aandaal paasurams which tells much more deeper about Kalavi:-
குத்து விளக்கெரிய கோட்டுக்கால் கட்டில்மேல்
மெத்தென்ற பஞ்ச சயனத்தின் மேல்ஏறிக்
கொத்தலர் பூங்குழல் நப்பினை கொங்கைமேல்
வைத்துக் கிடந்த மலர்மார்பா வாய்திறவாய்
மைத்தடம் கண்ணினாய் நீஉன் மணாளனை
எத்தனை போதும் துயிலெழ ஒட்டாய்காண்
எத்தனையேலும் பிரிவுஆற்ற கில்லாயால்
தத்துவம் அன்று தகவேலோர் எம்பாவாய்
உள்ளுக்குள்ளே உருகி நைந்துகொண்டிராநின்ற என்விஷயத்திலே சிறிது ஆராய்ச்சியுமில்லாதவனும், என்னை வெறுத்தரையாக்கினவனும், குறும்பு செய்யவதற்கென்றே பிறந்தவனுமான கோபாலக்ருஷ்ணனை ஒருகால் நான்காணப்பெற்றேனாகில், ஆட்டின் கழுத்தில் முலைபோலே என் மார்பில் வ்யர்த்தமாக முளைத்துக்கிடக்கிற இப்பாழும் முலைகளை வேர்பறியாகப் பறித்து அவனுடைய மார்விலே விட்டெறிந்து என்துக்கம் தீரப்பெறுவேனென்கிறாள்
Kamba Ramayanam's pangu:-
புடை கொண்டு எழு கொங்கையும், அல்குலும், புல்கி நிற்கும்
இடை, கண்டிலம்; அல்லது எல்லா உருவும் தெரிந்தாம்;
விடம் நுங்கிய கண் உடையார் இவர்; மெல்ல மெல்ல,
மட மங்கையர் ஆய், என் மனத்தவர் ஆயினாரே
Now, what kamal says, is problematic?!?

I was thinking why Kamal made such an ending for Madhavan, but I was sure there should be definitely a reason, otherwise for a casual audience, this may not make much sense. But this paragraph from the above review made it clear and convincing!!
பல சீன்களில் மாதவனே அம்மாவை இழுத்து, இழுத்து முன் நிறுத்தும் வசனங்களின் மூலமாக எந்த அளவிற்கு நம் இளைஞர்களின் மன முதிர்வின்மை இருப்பதாக காட்டுவதற்கெனவே அது போன்ற காட்சியமைவுகள் என்று விளங்கிக் கொள்ள முடிந்தது. அதன் அடிப்படையிலேயே விவகாரத்தாகி, இரண்டு குழந்தைகளுடன் இருக்கும் சங்கீதாவை மாதவன் போன்ற இன்னும் அம்மாவை துணைக்கு அழைக்கும் ஆடவனுக்கு அம்மாவையே வாழ்க்கை துணையாக பெறுவதே பொருத்தமாக இருக்கும் என்கிற அந்த முடிவுக் காட்சி பஞ்ச் என்றும் புரிந்து கொள்ள முடிந்தது.

Liked second half better this time. My wife is ready for third time watching also !!
Some Thalaivar nuances I noted this time ---
# When Major Mannar opens Ambu's wallet in the intro scene, a photograph of Ambu and Madanagopal is obvious .... first signal that she is still in love with him
# The day Major decides to do thagidu thatham, he is dressed in kaavi colour. The day he decides to confess everything to Trisha, he is dressed in full black. ( but he postpones the confession )
# When Major gets the shock of his life from Madhan who calls off the deal and cuts the phone call, the background LCD display shows a footballer giving a mega kick symbolising the event. ( The same football guy dances for Thagidu thatham )
# When Major tells Mallika "Dont worry .... enakku oru clear route theriyudhu", he hits a dead end.
# When major confirms to Madhan that Ambu is following typical mating ritual body language by twirling her hair with fingers, Major himself has his left hand into his pant pocket, "the male mating body language" as explained by Madhan.
# At the peak of confusion, when Major takes Vish to pee , he tries to open an automatic sliding door in the hotel with his hands and gets slightly shocked when it opens on its own suddenly
# In the climax, Madhan gets pissed off at Major and angrily thrusts his hand into the pant pocket ..... Major immediately looks across at the railing of the bridge wanting to jump into the river thinking that Madhan is going to pull out a pistol. But, Madhan pulls out his whisky can and takes some angry gulps instead.

Why are you against live sync sound?If im not wrong,only south indian movies dont use live sound..dubbing ellam just shows that we are moving 'backwards'
The big problem is the theatres. All cities have not got multiplexes which got silent audience and good audio setup. So it is very difficult to get what they.

Chennai booking nilavaram update (@10:30 am IST, 30 Dec):
INOX
Today:
* Eve - FULL (Only 7:05 pm show is listed in ngpay. But as per today's paper ad, 5 shows are listed at Inox)
Friday:
* Noon - Only 2 seats left
* Matinee, Eve - FULL
* Night - Just 1 left
Saturday
* Spl show - 830 am - 70% FULL
* all other shows - FULL
I feel that shows getting housefull one or two days in advance (after a week of release) is a sign of film doing reasonably well at the multiplexes.

Watched MMA yesterday at Kasi.. bit late as I could NOT see last weekend
after reading mixed response, I went with low expectations. I really liked the movie
It started slowly. By that time, I almost felt restless, KH has entered. From there on, it was very convincing. I did NOT feel the movie slow. May be I get used to slower movies than this. The screenplay / script was very smooth in the first half. The interval plot was very interesting that Trisha hit Kamal's car and the accident. Even the second half, it was quite good with a bit of intended confusion in the last 20 min.
Performances - Maddy (NOT only funny but did convincingly), Sangeetha(the phone call scene near the climax where she talks based on Kamal's body language

but her voice is

), trisha(so far the best)

actually, they got lot of screen space..
KH, the actor

- did NOT have enough scope for his caliber but he made his mark... esp andha "nadu roadla nikkaren" and the scene before neelavaanam song where he explains about his love / accident, genius at work
KH, the writer - except few pitfalls here and there, he was very good. many one liners worked for me... though few of them unwanted
Maddy: (in the phone call) Fantastic..
Oviya serves Bhajji at the same time
Oviya: Naan Panninen
Maddy: athanala enna.. appavum fantastic'nu than solluven
another scene when Maddy was speaking from the toilet and her mother knocked the door.. "naan onnum chinna payan illamma...naane
thevai illaama engeyum paattu illadhaadhu added advantage.. Neelavaanam picturization

half an hour flashback'a 5 nimishathula sollittaaru... aana impact is same
Very good movie to end the year... saying that, I had watched with almost nil expectation.
will be a hit in A & B.. superhit / blockbuster ellam chance illa... nethu oru 50% crowd irundhuchu...

I recall gautham mentioned he has a thriller story which suits for kamal!

I have always held this impression that VV was an accident that Kamal couldn't get out of. No way he would team up with him again.

Maddy excels in that role, Sangeetha in a few scenes. Thrisha looks very nice. Kamal dialogues vazhakkam pola nice, however i feel crazy wud have added more value.
Was not reading any reviews of prev pages, aana ennikko paathappo last 30 minutes laugh riot nellam padichitten

ஹாசரின் முகபாவனைகள் அசத்தல். ரொம்ப ரசித்துப் பார்த்தேன் இரண்டாவது முறை பார்க்கும் போது.
1) தகிடு தத்தோம் பாடலில் இவர் மாட்டை அடக்க முற்படும் காட்சி ஆரம்பிக்கும் போது, இவர் ஸ்டேடியத்திலிருந்து தலையை சாய்த்து உன்னிப்பாய் ஒரு பார்வை பார்ப்பார். Grand stylish!! இவருக்கு மட்டும் எங்கேயிருந்துதான் இப்படியெல்லாம் தோணுகிறதோ தெரியவில்லை.
2) அம்பு கூட்டத்தோடு சகஜமாக பழகிய பின்வரும் Web camல் உரையாடும் காட்சியில் விஷ் ராஜனோடு பேசும் ஒவ்வொரு வார்த்தைக்கும் இவர் கொடுக்கும் முகபாவனைகள் சூப்பரோ சூப்பர். நல்ல கலைஞன் என்றால் இப்படித்தான் இருக்கணும். காட்சியில் மௌனமாக இருந்தாலும் பாவனைகளை சரியான விகிதத்தில் கொடுப்பதில் கமலுக்கு நிகர் கமலே.

Similar news was posted in Facebook MMA page few days before, didn't believe it then. Are you concluding this based on:
1. Recent interview that thalaivar gave to NDTV (he said he is writing the script for a crime thriller)
2. Gautham said few days back he has a thriller in the pipeline
3. Twitter by Nikil Murugan that Gautham and Thalaivar will be giving together soon.
Or some source confirmed this? Please share.
As far as i know, thalaivar said in the last week NDTV interview he is writing the story. So i guess its story+screenplay to be directed by himself.

Watched second time this evening at kamala screen 1.
Thoroughly enjoyed it along with others in the theatre.
Jam packed with family audience. They were ROTFL for the last 45 mins.
looks like the family audience have lapped it up well.
Btw, the theatre was 90% full. I asked the ticket collector at the entrance abt how the fil fares. 'supera pogudhu sir' were his words. Feeling happy to end the year on a good note

Manmadhan Ambu Box Office Collection in USA
Manmadhan Ambu has made an impression on the North American audiences as the movie is running to packed houses. The Christmas weekend is also a contributing factor for pulling in more crowds to the theatres. With yet another long weekend in the offing due to the New Year, this success run is expected to continue.
Kamal Haasan has a long fan base in the US and his ventures with director KS Ravi Kumar is more than welcome among the movie buffs here. Further, the film has Trisha and Madhavan who enjoy immense popularity in the US.
The movie's response in Tamil Nadu is excellent as well. Those who come out after watching Manmadhan Ambu could not stop appreciating Kamal's sense of humor and the subtle comedy.
Director KS Ravi Kumar and Kamal Haasan have joined together to give several hits like Dasavatharam, Panchathanthiram and Thenali and all of them have done well at the box office. We wish their partnership continues.

Deleted scenes in Manmadhan Ambu
Many of u would have missed the deleted scenes in MA, am sharing them here in detail for the benefit of all, the scens arnd the kavithai r indeed too good and its a shame that they were forced to be deleted, had the fortune to catch them again in my 2nd/3rd watch.
Scene: After theme music stage dance show and kamal sir seeing the portrait depicting the dancers directing him to trisha, he follows her to the cave, she is glancing at the poem, gets frightened by mannar's entry for a second, trisha asks the reason for the visit and mannar says he has come to give kurup's script, trisha asks if this is the actual reason and mannar says no, he is using it as an excuse, trisha tells tat she likes honest people and she wud like to be one. U would have seen till this
Now after this: Trisha tells that she wants to tell a truth, before that she wud like kamal sir to hear her kavithai; they discuss what the theme shes goin to tell; Trisha tells she is goin to represent her gender in a way as to what guys should be aware/beware of. Then goes her recital followed by kamal sir's recital.
The scene after this is the most important that has been deleted; Kamal sir while finishing his narration tells sri varalakshmi namosthuthe with his praying hands directed towards trisha. Trisha admires kavithai, tells wow, naan epdi manasula nenachathe neenga correctaa sonnenga, unbelievablenu; trisha to kamal " ungalala epdi pengalin manathai ipdi aaraaya mudinjuthu" to which kamal sir tells a classy dialogue " similar to how eve was made of adam's rib, like how hindu puranam says sakthi was part of siva, at least half of mine has come from my amma; one third oda effectey ipdi (kamal sir refers to 33% reservation, i forgot exact dialogue)
trisha then tells that she is astonished that she has met a honest person like kamal, she is flabbergasted bcos kamal sir's kavithai explored her heart and she realizes at that moment he is his best half;
She tells "Enaku ithu kanavaane theriyala, aanaa pls naan innum konja neram intha kanavulaye iruken". She doesnt want to encounter a situation where the events happening now is just a dream, she asks kamal to pinch her n just backs off bcos she doesnt want to realize it might be fake. She also tells that after she utters the truth, she doesnt kno wat wud happen, so she wanted kamal sir to hear her poem (and in turn her mind) before this, telling this she hugs him, kamal sir embraces her lightly in an attempt to console her
The poem's start and end clearly shows the love they ahve for each other, a very very beautiful scene that shudnt have been deleted at any cost, shame on hmk n producers!
Deleted scene 2: This was revealed in Maddy's interview
Most of u wud be amazed at how maddy and Sangeeta loved each other, it was revealed during Maddy's interview that they initially had a scene where maddy realized that he had made a mistake missing ambu and doubting her, following his mom's advise all thro right from hiring a detective, so maddy wants to settle scores with his mom by marrying a girl b4 he goes to chennai, tats one of the reasons to marry sangita besides the reactions he had while she sings those songs while being drunk and as part of the drama
This was also an important scene but was deleted to be concise and never made it in the final print

Saw the movie in ganapathy ram - All said and done , i was not so happy with this movie - Its normally a good move to have a mis-mash of genres in a movie - but not in a bifurcated way ..Suddenly all the characters become caricatures and although the serious and the humor parts were interesting byitself , as a movie it didnt work for me ..

Saw the film in Columbus. There were 8 other people in the theater. We made it to 10. Here are my thoughts for those who are interested.
1. The first 10 mins or so and oyyala etc were so meh I was like WTH.
2. From the moment they entered the cruise up until neelavaanam I was completely overwhelmed. This is the kind of film / scenes I need from Kamal the writer.
3. There were many fantastic scenes in the 2nd half but it does not match up with the excellence shown in the first half, at all.
4. The last 20 minutes were absolutely dumb. They wanted to make a Sathi Leelavathy-esque climax but SL was way way funnier.
5. The main problem with the film was the same problem I had with Mynaa. I dont know if I should watch it as a comedy or as a romance. The characters suddenly become caricatures and do some silly antics. And its so not a rom-com more a com=>rom=>com.
6. Trisha was being shown as a mature, sensible girl I do not know how was she able to put up with Maddy for 3+ years. A failure for Kamal's characterization. Maddy's 80s like characterization did not help either.
7. The irreversible-esque Kamal-Frenchy romance + neelavaanam was simply fantastic. Easily the best part about the film. Kamal did say that they were planning something like that for Marmayogi and used it here!
8. Kamal-Trisha romance was very well executed but I for one was longing for more screen time to that.
9. Haasan was absolutely fantastic, his best since Virumaandi without any doubt.
10. Trisha was extremely annoying. Thikki thikki thamizh pesuraanga, ivinga kavithai veraiyaa.. She looked ugly too and her costumes were in poor taste. Jessie >> Ambu.
11. Maddy was good but thought he overdid a few scenes. Sangeetha was so effortlessly naturally, well she did not have to act. Excellent casting. Urvasi/RA etc were good too. Overall well acted except Trisha.
12. Dialogues were great in many places and a crazy would have made the comic sequences way funnier, no two ways about it. The toilet jokes were overdone too.

Nerds review is another different review with mixed feelings! Most of us were unable to totally put up or put down this movie! Mixed feelings all the way!!
Todays kalaignar tv interview, kamal said, he wrote the entire film(as a pathos), and after producer's request brought in some comedy etc. i guess that spoiled the story and thus we are unable to sink fully
Only great thing i see from MMA is, most of the general audience are now matured, ready for a different kamal film, and are waiting to dissect,analyse the movie, find and enjoy the subtleties etc!
Complaints were mostly about the writing. Even maddy+sangeetha was not questioned much, only the sudden turn with less or no justification.
That the good parts have raised expectation of the viewer is the success of the writer whereas that expectation wasn't satisfied (in the rest of the movie) is the main grouse!

என் பார்வையில் வேறொரு முடிவு என்றால், கமல் சங்கீதாவோடு இணைவது..திருந்தி வரும் மாதவரோடு த்ரிஷா இணைவது. விஷ் "தனது அம்மாவிற்கு கணவர் வேணும், எங்களுக்கும் ஒரு தந்தை வேண்டும்" என்ற ரீதியில் கமல் - சங்கீதாவை சேர்த்து வைப்பது இன்னும் சிறப்பாக இருக்கும் எனத் தோன்றுகிறது. கடைசி அரை மணி நேரத்தை நகைச்சுவையில் முழுதும் செலவழிக்காமல் இன்னும் கொஞ்சம் அழுத்தமான காட்சிகளை வைத்திருந்தால்.. குஞ்சு குருப் இவை எல்லாவற்றையுமே தனது அடுத்த படத்தில் காட்சிகளாக வைப்பது போல முடிந்திருந்தால்..

Finally saw the movie , inspite of the determined organisers who did all their mite to deny the movie a decent screening!!
Notwithstanding the goofiness of how the movie was screened, this is one classy kamal vehicle! It is Kamal show all the way - but Kamal cleverly let the other artistes rob the limelight (nothing new to him - but in a movie which is not RajKamal films, it is brave of the producers to have let him done that). The movie - true to Kamal's statement is a mish mash of all genres possible (except horror - however for select scenes sangeetha sported a strange makeup which compensated for that as well) and worked because of that curious mix and Only Kamal (in thamizh) can create such a work. The right title should have been "Man Ambu Madhan". Trisha's Ambujam character is what one would call the fulcrum to balance two weird characters - one extremely mature pacifist private detective and one absolutely immature spoilt rich brat Madhan. It(the movie) plays as a love triangle as easily as a george bernard shaw critique of the class differences. Off course it plays as an out and out comedy in the final 25 mins as well. More of that later.
Coming back to Trisha's Ambujakshi - Much like VTV, I wanted to see more of her. While a Major Mannar completely at peace with his "pacifism" being sportive about his tragedy and the resultant farce executed by Police is understandable, One can only wonder why A leading film star plays a meek lover tormented by her fiancee and for one having a supposedly smart brain in comparison with her suitor. Her meekness and compulsion are not very clear and as a result we get to see a movie which sways from worldly wise and mature drama when Kamal is in focus and to a loony whacky sarcastic comedy when Maddy is on screen. Maddy is the winner in this movie and it is so because of the limited screentime Ambujam character is having. In a KB movie this same character would be played with all gutso and the audience will be torn between the vagaries created by the leading men here. This is not to say that Trisha did bad or anything, it is just that someone has decided not to keep a palm fruit on a sparrow's head perhaps.
Kamal is unarguably the best script writer we have and MMA is another of his "treatises" surely to be closely analysed by budding screenwriters and experts alike.
Even the switch to "funny" mode was done with elan and sufficiently sketched out in the "Deepa Planning scene" . Right from there the audience got their clue to put their "Laughter" cap on. Every comic bullet from the crew hit the bull's eye unfailingly. This portion too belonged not to kamal, but to Sangeetha, Kurup and Maddy. In fact the only person who owns the entire movie is Maddy. Be it his tirade against "Orange shirt guys" (Kamal the writer throws subtlety to the winds and cooks up a biting sarcasm which is delightful) or calling Mannaar as "PachiLam Major" - he is wonderful and I was like where was he with all this comic talent all these days - Supporters of Surya and Vikram in the hub are gonna have a hard day in the hub in the coming days.
Songs - wonderful for the way they were so situational and yet complete (thanks Kamal for not chopping them mercilessly). The best song is offcourse the "Kavidhai" of "Ambuja" . Followed by "Neelavaanam" which can be used by Traffic police as an advert for "Seat belt" in future. Offcourse neelavaanam is a stunner and much like "Sundari neeyum" soon going to gain immortality in youtube (not among the kids though).
DSP has shown some maturity in the BGM department and my daughter closed her ears only once in the entire movie.
I am not bothered much about outdoor, lighting, locations etc., My main focus was on drama and characters and this movie is pretty rich in that. Even Oorvasi and Ramesh were too good.
Dialogues were sparkling except for some cliched ones and corny ones.
Totally unnecessary to the movie were Oviya, Usha Uthup (she could have been a voice over or to speak "KB" an irumal thaatha.
The much touted "Kavidhai" was not censored here and it worked 50% only Ambu's - Major's Kavidhai was mundane and flat - only thing to warrant that would have been the obvious controversy-publicity it can be used to generate and the poor fellows in HMK obliged to Kamal's calling like schoolgirls falling for icecream.
A lengthy post where a simple "I concur with Public relations mostly" would have done - guilty as charged.

My review is purely on the basis of experience and observaton. But the main theme of ambu-mannar romance is one of Forgiveness and love blossoming out of that. Originality aspect of this plot and of the "Romance on the high seas" is highly debatable and I chuckle to myself at the extreme lengths that Kamal and KSR went on to protect the copyrights of the script. In fact this is the most plagiarized, adopted, adapted screenplay of Kamal in recent times. The forgiveness track is right from the Sivakumar Nadiya movie "Unakkagave Vaazhgiren" in mid 80s (it had the amazing ilanjolai poothadhu"). So I have an opinion that Kamal simply wanted to make fun of all the folks who are waiting for a Kamal movie to claim ownership to script by .. making the most unoriginal script of all times, Templates from more than one movie, story line from more than one movie - local and international and cleverly creating characters who are very original and molding them with an abundance of "Kamalisms". Very clever and very BRAVO...

In 2010, bollywood had 238 films in which 200 films went without trace wasting Rs.2000 Crores. The main reason was absence of content.
COmpared to that, MMA is honest and has many original stuff and also didnt mimick anything forcefully just for the sake of commercial profits.
Its not movie of the year but surely it stands high as a honest attempt.
As the response is mixed, so is BO. but its not bad and is making profits. Wait for the official announcement

BO Report
CBO Collections from Dec-31-2010 to Jan-02-2011!
Kamal’s latest is not exactly a laugh riot but the layered story ensures that this is not just a mindless comic caper although there are signs of it everywhere. With the ensemble star cast of Kamal, Trisha, Madhavan and Sangeetha, the movie moves along flawlessly with the help of Kamal’s intelligible dialogues.
Trade Talk:
The pre-release publicity and curiosity enabled the movie to have a good opening with full houses over the weekends and the subsequent week of its release.
Public Talk:
The ageless Kamal and the tiny Trisha!
No. Weeks Completed: 1
No. Shows in Chennai over this weekend: 435
Average Theatre Occupancy over this weekend: 85%
Collection over this weekend in Chennai: Rs. 81,36,568
Total collections in Chennai: Rs. 2.39 Crore
Verdict: Good Opening

according to BW, first week was 95 laks sumthing. 2nd week 87 sumthing. added up, both doesn't cross 2 crore but now BW says the total CBO collection is 2.4 Cr. which means, going by BW calcs, the weekdays are brisk and the difference money came from weekdays.

Madhavan plans big bash for Kamal
R.Madhavan was with family in Dubai to spend New Year's but as soon as he is back in town, he plans to thrown a lavish party for Kamal Haasan in Chennai.
Maddy, as he is popularly called, is a big fan of the iconic superstar and considers him to be his guru. This will just be a reflective bonding session between the two where they will catch up on work and how the South Indian movie industry functions. "I love to bond with Kamal Haasan. He is an icon and institution and one gets to learn from him so much that it's always a pleasure," he says.

"compare" first week end and second week end .. there is a difference of 8 L .. it is normal to have little bit lesser collection in the second than the first weekend.. not sure what else is there in that...

MANMADHAN AMBU - A BIG MISS HIT....
Home > Visitor Column
By Behindwoods Visitor Rajiv Kanna
The views expressed in this column are that of the visitor. Behindwoods.com doesn't hold responsible for its content.
Tons of expectations, lots of belief and eagerness to watch, coupled with a grand music release increased everybody's expectations for this Manamadhan's Manmadhan Ambu.... To everyone's dismay, the film had not done justice to the cast, crew and the hype it had created. I am still not relieved from the shock of the disaster after seeing the film. Is this the Kamal Haasan we know? I am sure something has gone totally wrong. It is just like how we felt for the Australian Cricket team when their performance dropped. Kamal Haasan has had a bad attempt at the cupid's arrow missing it big time........
The film was portrayed as a humor treat but hours into the movie, you keep searching for the comedy which is always inevitable in Kamal - KS Ravikumar movie. Kamal and Trisha until last few minutes of movie don't even show their love for each other and the reasons for it is also is very baseless. Kamal has failed in most of the on screen performance but for the songs he has sung..... Yes there are a few scenes here and there to reiterate that it is a Kamal Haasan movie but it does not last long. It is a lazy attempt from Kamal and the much talked about rehearsal for such a film is a waste. Kamal has to stop thinking about other areas of the film industry and focus on acting and choosing scripts that could make him a lot more successful. He should take a leaf out of Rajini's method of choosing films. As a fan it was indeed more than a disappointment after watching it First day in below freezing temperature in New York...... After Endiran the gap between successful ( Rajini) and the great actor ( Kamal) has increased......
The cast in the film are all wasted. What a criminal waste of Oorvasi, who comes as a crying wife in few scenes and fades away, Trisha doesn't have much to do but it is definitely one of the better performances from her...... Madhavan does a simple role effectively though..... but the script makes all character look weak. Sangeetha as always has the potential and has done her work to perfection, perhaps outscoring most of them including Kamal. The climax where Sangeetha and Madhavan unite is intolerable. What has happend Kamal? Is this where you want to take Tamil cinema. The last 20 minutes of the film does make one laugh, as people remember that it is a comedy movie and had to laugh at least for the sake of it......
It is sad end to much hyped movie and a one to forget soon. Waiting for another Kamal movie where Ulaga Nayagan shines..... Good Luck Ulaga Nayanganee............. Come back with a Bang!!!!

He is mentioned
"compare" first week end and second week end .. there is a difference of 8 L .. it is normal to have little bit lesser collection in the second than the first weekend.. not sure what else is there in that...
First week
No. Days Completed: 4
No. Shows in Chennai over this weekend: 494
Average Theatre Occupancy over this weekend: 90%
Collection over this weekend in Chennai: Rs. 94,36,591
Second Week
No. Shows in Chennai over this weekend: 435
Average Theatre Occupancy over this weekend: 85%
Collection over this weekend in Chennai: Rs. 81,36,568
Total collections in Chennai: Rs. 2.39 Crore
In first week end,
four days = 95 L, second week end
three days collection is 81 L..
Per day collection is much more in second week that too with 5 % lesser occupancy
than the first week. Eppadiyum First week end vida second week end collection less aa
thaan irukkum. By all chances first week end (4 days ) detail is wrong or this one is wrong.
Or for first week end too they considered only the 3 days(Friday, Sat and Sunday) collection.

the collection is very good when compared other kamal movies except dasa which is always exceptional in terms of collection.
heard that it's going good in all centres because of no real competitive movies now.
so, can expect a very good collections in the future also.
also the movie has already declared as super hit (as per wikipedia infromation).

But i have a strong feel that bloggers cant make an impact at any level!
Btw, new year spl kalaigner tv live show, many ppl inc some girls asked sensible questions about the fillm to Sir, not only that, most of them were interested in the subtle things shown in kamal films. one example is, a girl who mentioned the dead-end scene where kamal says "enakku clearaa oru vazhi theriyuthu"
Dasavatharam had fueled this interest in many fans!

Yes sir. And I have a fair idea of how its doing in other centers too.
Btw its got nothing to do with the taste of the audience. Family audiences (major chunk of movie watchers in the USA, ones with 5 year olds) prefer 10A/VRMBBS to MMA/Anbe Sivam (not to mention other actor's films) as simple as that.

my doubt is, whycome US or UK or both audience skip a singam when they keep kanthaswamy/aathavan/sura/kuruvi on top?!?
athula irukkura ennathu singam'la illaama pochu?!? and singam fared better than aathavan asper what i heard
added to that, if this is the UK BO stats, then i recall the news abt ayan touching or rubbing sivaaji records. even if its a bit lower, then that effect doesnt reflect in their table. now, dasa to was lower than sivaaji in UK which somehow means that one neednot break records in UK to become a superhit! is it so!?

Sakala,
Agreed there tone is a bit exaggerated or a bit "lollu sabha"-ish but my gaandu is that these guys write/bad mouth even good or genuine movies made in Tamil.
and also Nerd is right - I have also heard from some of my friends or folks I know in USA who have mentioned the same - like in places like NJ or the bay area etc. the MMA collections were really not up to the mark, unfortuantely. I'm just hearing through word of mouth.

it is almost 15 days after release and reviews are out everywhere. seeing the film and also the reviews, its clear that this film doesn't have the punch needed to become a blockbuster.
avar enna nenachu eduthaar theriyala, but its a well known fact that one sumaal fight, crazy type comedy(that too in end piece) and the rest filled with kavithai and philosophies is something which will NEVER tick the BO. a common kamal fan wont expect record breakings after seeing such content.
so in a way ditching kamal's BO capabilities based on this one film is like, " nee adichathu oru pilla poochiya, unakku vengala kinnam kooda kidayaathu"
anyways, thalaivan irukkinraans, yaavarum keLirs marmayogis are there to create records, hopefully.

This is not the right vehicle to compare BO. So far, good accolades received for the content is more than enuf. Lets fix mind on next film.

படத்தின் ஆரம்பம் முதல் இறுதி வரை கொட்டக் கொட்டப் பார்த்ததில் எனக்கு எந்த பெரிய தவறும் தெரியவில்லை..
ஏனெனில் நான் சிந்திக்கும் நிலையில் இல்லை.. வயிறு வலிக்கச் சிரித்துக் கொண்டிருந்தேன்.. ஏன் திரையரங்கத்தில் அனைவருமே அப்படியான நிலையில் தான் இருந்தனர்.

What really happenned to the movie goers taste in US/UK ??
Behindwoods "engalukku veru engum kiLaigal kidayaathu' nnu sonnaangaLe?!?
The run period is pretty narrow, so the BO depends on the star power + expectations generated & not so much on WOM.
Plus, the ticket rates are highly variable. Kuselan cost me $25
while a normal tamil film will only cost $8 or $10

As far as Dasavatharam is conrerned, it still has some unbroken records, u can see in that and the next thread.
An exclamatory praise which every fan will do! And kamal need not do all those monkey tricks everytime to just maintain ONLY that. He has lots of other things too.
BO records will naturally be taken care of in forthcoming movies. Btw, even UPO which didnt have a great opening commanded good returns.

A film (good or bad) has to entertain the audience to become a BO hit at least in TN. Thats how it works in TN.

we have had discussions in past abt "entertainment" - one of the most abused word in thamizh film industry. However a "very primitive taste in entertainment" reflects a mental ailment afflicting a mass section of people.
Such a disease spread and supported by media eventually will lead to " cultural fascism" where one hero in a market place will start sermonizing as if he is standing on a mount and fans will come down with "goose flesh" for the message. Hitler and Goebbles kept a generation of Germans brainwashed with such a notion of "entertainment" - "Commonly accepted ideals as messages" etc., etc.,
Entertainment should be harmless and of an elevated taste. The likes of which our legends like Bheemsingh, B.R.Bandhulu, Nagi Reddy used to make. If it needs to be massy and reflecting all sections, even then one harmless family comedy formula can be worked out. Kamal has off and on been pushing the acceptable limits of "entertainment" to sensible area for quite some time. MMA though might not be the "dabang" type is still a small push given to the "Paamaram" to use the grey matter in the head.

publicity panaathathu producer mistake. after seeing the high praises, producer themselves worried for that and even went to kamal asking his callsheet. So better blame producer
From people's side, many rajini fans and common fans keep saying that anbe sivam is a classic. Kamal says that all these/those ppl watched in either TV or pirated Cds.
Kamal NEVER blames ppl for making mumbai express a flop but for anbesivam, all he asks, " adapaavigaLaa, ippo ivlo paaraatureegnale, thalaila thookki vechi aadreengale, intha aatharavai endaa theatrekku poi ticket vaangi kaattala?"
Even for hey raam, kamal himself came and agreed that he didn't do the necessary background preparations to make ppl get interested to a historical fiction. another mistake kamal didn't agree is about the dialogs coming in multiple indian languages. He countered saying that if thats the problem for a film then i would say thats the same reason why india is not so well integrated. i disagree with that notion, its the creator's duty to keep dialogs in a language understandable in that region.
but what mistake one can say on kamal, about anbe sivam?? Its purely the mistake of producer and audience! kiranai kooda maddykke vittu kuthuttaare

I have lived in TN, AP, Karnataka as well as Goa/Maharashtra and now in the US.
In India - there is a general sense of anticipation/thrill with almost every film thats released especially those of big stars be it south, north, east or west india - and this does NOT necessarily have to do with any balanced view of the quality of the product per se - in the southern states, barring Kerala abt which i know very little, objectivity hits rock bottom when a big star's film is released.
however, from what i have observed, Kamal's films teeter towards alarming levels of challenging audiences objectivity - its like asking them 'come on fellas, do u want to watch the same run-of-the-mill nonsense ? are you gonna judge my films for its content objectively or simply trash it for subjective reasons ?' - if the audience rejects the product, kamal always can fall back on a KSR combo and belt out a thenaali to appeal to the 'time-tested' palate of the south indian juntaa - however, in due course of time, Kamal has steadily changed the palate of the audiences themselves by tirelessly striving to give quality fare - some may argue that even this 'quality' is subjective, but in the overall analysis, Kamal deserves a humongous pat and applause for having done what he has done in an industry used to as well as worshipping stereotypes - Kamal has consciously, subtly transformed his fans from whistle-hooting front-benchers into objective thinking ones, even inviting their ire for his products every now and then! I for one, can have the supreme luxury of trashing a kamal film, if i did not like it wholeheartedly - i did so for DASA - thats the freedom i have NOT as a kamal fan (though as one, i would wish he did more creative films than stuff like DASA), but as a good cinema fan!
am not very sure if Rajini fans have that luxury - they have consciously opted out of that luxury and relegated themselves to 'neenga edha senjaalum, naanga paappom' mindset - I dont find Rajini die-hards very objective - i hardly have come across fans even in the US, who talk abt what a Rajini film actually has to offer - the replies are always in the form of 'enna oru charisma!', 'sema screen presence', 'enna oru mass entertainment', 'enna oru appeal', 'enna oru style', 'enna oru humble person' (who cares if Rajini smoked a wills filter or a charminar or ate idly or upmaa for his breakfast - but in TN all of that matters!) - thats all ok, but they dont have an answer for the actual quality of the film - the answer will be to take a look at the BO records! indha latchanathhila, a software engineer friend of mine says "sivaji padam $25 per ticket in NJ - its only possible with a Rajini film! chanceless and no comparison with any star anywhere in the world - can a clint eastwood or a tom cruise do the same ?" - enga poi muttikkaradhunney theriyala!
Rajini, Kamal or whichever vengayam/pudalangai/sundakkai acts/stars, no movie IMHO deserves $20 leave alone $25 for a ticket!
'Nandhalala' - good film or not - did not even get a release here in the US! am sure thats the case with every overseas market
who is to be blamed ? especially if Mysskin decides to make a jackass 'kutthu pattu-dandanakka' film to satisfy the 'entertainment loving' TN audience ??
but then thats the level of craze and lack of objectivity that is sucking up every little bit of common as well as aesthetic sense out of our TN people!

romba romba periyavaa, illai, romba romba chinnavaa - eppadi eduthhukkireengalo appadi eduthhukkonga - unga ishtam!
I recall way back in the early 1990s, in Villivakaam, a family making around Rs.5000 per month, paid close to Rs.1000 to watch a Rajini film in its first weekend of release! where is the objectivity here ? its a free country no doubt, but it does alarm me when someone making Rs.5000 a month decides to spend Rs.1000 on a film when they could have waited for another week or even a month!
is it Rajini's fault ? no am not blaming him at all - but so far, as we have such ppl, we will always have distributors cashing in on the mass craze and making money out of it, no matter or what - perhaps that actually contributed to Rajini consciously deciding not push the envelope himself! i feel sad for him
And it is not surprising that every other channel in TN is cashing in on the 'mass entertainment' hungry ppl to have a star-show every other week, with enough tacky glitz thrown in that is more than just embarassing!
the same goes for something like 'kaun banega crorepathi' - i remember having colleagues whose big lifetime ambition was to meet Amitabh Bachhan once ! am sure there are nut cases like this elsewhere in the world, but for sheer volume and magnitude, we have no equals anywhere in the world
i guess every society needs a hero, and in a society where heroes are limited in other fields, entertainment providers are the biggest heroes - it still doesn't explain this mindless madness that characterises TN audiences!
and if you thought am a diehard Kamal fan, am not - not in the sense of someone who will watch and accept whatever trash kamal will offer - watching DASA, i was squirming when I found the much used-to kamal mannerisms cropping up every now and then, while at the same time, enjoying his subtle body language changes with Fletcher, or then nagarcoil tamil speaking character, while getting disgusted with the shamelessly tacky tall character, or, over-the-top sterotyped brahmin tamil speaking asin character - all of this in a kamal film ?? no way!
btw, am no 'peter' english speaking ABCD either - i get equally disgusted when i watch an out-of-shape John Travolta going over-the-top in several of his films in the 2000s, or, even Denzel Washington repeating his acts over and over again - while at the same time, enjoying the brilliant 'Ghost Writer' or an 'Invictus', or a 'True Grit', or an 'Inception' - when I pay $9 for all of these - why shd i pay $16 for a substandard DASA or the likes!
our makkals have no objection in paying $16 for trash (that is trash IMHO), but have no hesitation in buying pirated DVDs of English films from platforms!
i think it is deep-rooted in our mass culture! and we will never have someone like Mysskin or a Bala attempting stuff like NL or a NK

That is not my intention. We are talking about MMA here but you are attacking rajni fans here. You judge the whole world of Rajni fans from your experience. I think it is a very big world.
If you had just talked about how much you love MMA or Kamal Hassan in this thread, it is fine. Why are you attacking rajni fans?

Hollywood movies have BIG audience but for Tamil movies we dont have that kind of audience. So, when they make a big budget movie, they raise the ticket price in US. Anybody can understand why the high-budget tamil movie ticket prices are "outrageous".

am afraid you dont get the point
big or small audience hardly matters and does not explain the craze we have for stars! and does not justify the ridiculous price(s) either!
there are big budget films made in Tollywood and Bollywood too but they get released in regular AMC halls at $9 per ticket! it is quite obvious that Tamil film distributors know that their target audiences are A class gullible lot and wudnt mind spending $ 15 plus for a so-called 'big' film! and hence release them in useless, pathetic movie halls owned and run by Indians!
I will not watch a Maharasan, or an Annamalai, EVEN IF someone offered me a million dollars for watching either of these!
it all boils down to a question of my choice since am paying hard-earned money from my pocket.
I still have not forgotten my hard days of labor at work doing my graduate studies, with every step/stage of my work coming under scrutiny by a research committee, who will not give a green signal unless the student convinces them of evidence presented!
of course, it does bug me, when I see stars not having to prove their credibility/accountability in terms of their product and still being worshipped by makkals!
no more from me on this topic

I think it wud come under private business enterprise! hence, its entirely upto the entrepreneur to levy ticket rates, since he/she is not part of the established system (of distributors, movie halls etc) - so unless the consumers demand for a reduced rate, things may not change

Irir123,
Strange as it may sound - a masala (mass) movie and a class movie dont just compete with each other; A masala movie is also competing with other "gang" events like concerts, sports events etc. And each win in that case is a victory for the cinema industry as a whole.
And just cribbing about movie-goers' tastes will not solve the basic problem - what is the compelling reason for me to watch a *good* movie in the theater with possibly a few smarta$$es spoiling the experience for me vs watching it on DVD in the privacy of my own home?
You could solve this problem with limited release high-priced viewings, followed by a general wide release or use other such creative ways - instead of "stomach-burning" about successful movies.

Well said.
And Sakala, we have to blame Kamal's choice of producers and in general producers not the people and their taste.
Take MMA, producer was ok for big promotions and forced kamal to change the script. And AnbeSivam didn't have a big producer and required promotions.

Why blame kamal's choice?? I would blame him for not background-marketing his BO powers which all superstars do!
He is one highly complicated Star who does record breaking Indian/Avvai SHanmugi/Thenali/dasavatharam at one end and he himself goes to spoil that with MMA/Mumbai Express/Heyraam etc.
And even after being such a successful hero( yes ) he has returned his salary many times - aalavanthan, anbe sivam(he wasn't paid full), and few other films. Hey raam he 'silently' returned money back to distributor. All this movies in the same decade where he delivered Vasoolraja/virumaani/VV/Dasavatharam.
I would rather blame producers and people who maintain false image on his BO power, knowingly or unknowingly.
apart from phemily, how many Aascar Ravichandrans are there??(He himself kind of cheated Sir! by 'giving' the whole of dasa hindi rights to kamal)

எம்.எஸ்.விஸ்வநாதன், இளையராஜாவுக்குப் பிறகு தமிழ் சினிமா இசையின் சிம்மாசனம் காலியாகவே இருக்கு. தேவிஸ்ரீ பிரசாத் அந்த இடத்துக்கு வர வாய்ப்பு இருக்கு’’, இது சமீபத்தில் ‘மன்மதன் அம்பு’ இசை வெளியீட்டு விழாவில் கமலிடமிருந்து வந்த தடாலடி ஸ்டேட்மெண்ட்.
சினிமா விழாக்களில் பார்க்க முடிகிற வழக்கமான பாராட்டுதான் என பாஸிட்டிவாக எடுத்துக்கொண்டு அந்த நிமிடத்திலேயே இதை மறந்துவிட்டவர்களும் உண்டு. பாராட்டும் அவசரத்தில் யதார்த்தத்தை மறந்து கமல் பேசிவிட்டாரோ என்று முணுமுணுத்தவர்களும் உண்டு.
தேவிஸ்ரீ பிரசாத்தைப் பாராட்டுவதன் மூலம் ஏ.ஆர்.ரஹ்மானுக்குரிய இடத்தை கமல் மறுக்கிறார் என்ற கேள்விகளும் இன்னொரு பக்கம் உலவுகின்றன. இசையமைப்பாளர்கள் என்ன நினைக்கிறார்கள்?
விஷயத்தைச் சொன்னதுமே, ‘நமக்கு எதுக்கு வம்பு?’ என அலறி ஒதுங்கிக்கொண்ட இசையமைப்பாளர்கள்தான் அதிகம். ஏ.ஆர்.ரஹ்மான் கோட்டையிலிருந்தே நாம் ஆரம்பித்தோம். “இந்த மாதிரி விஷயத்துக்கெல்லாம் சார் பதில் சொல்ல மாட்டார். அவர் இப்போ பிஸியா இருக்கார்’’ என சீற்றத்துடன் ரஹ்மான் தரப்பிலிருந்து பதில் வந்தது. யுவன்ஷங்கர் ராஜாவும் வித்யாசாகரும் ‘நோ கமென்ட்ஸ்’ என்று நாசூக்காக ஒதுங்கிக்கொண்டார்கள். டி.வி. சேனல்களில் நடக்கும் இசைப் போட்டிகளில் கறாராகத் தீர்ப்பு சொல்கிற ஜேம்ஸ் வசந்தனிடமிருந்தும் இதே பதில்தான். ஹாரிஸ் ஜெயராஜ், இமான், விஜய் ஆண்டனி ஆகியோரிடமிருந்து எந்த ரெஸ்பான்ஸும் இல்லை.
”எம்.எஸ்.வி., இளையராஜாவுக்குப் பிறகு தேவிஸ்ரீ பிரசாத் என்பது கமல் சாரின் தனிப்பட்ட கருத்து. அது தப்புன்னு நான் சொல்லமாட்டேன். ஆனால் எங்களைப் பொறுத்தவரை எம்.எஸ்.வி., இளையராஜாவுக்கு அடுத்தபடி அந்த வரிசையில் ஏ.ஆர்.ரஹ்மான்தான். உலகத்தைப் பொறுத்தவரையும் அதுதான்’’ என்று உறுதியாகச் சொன்னார் ஜீ.வி.பிரகாஷ்.
“எம்.எஸ்.வி., இளையராஜா இருவரும் சந்தேகத்துக்கிடமின்றி சாதிச்சி முடிச்சவங்க. அவங்களுக்குப் பிறகு காலியா இருக்கும் இடத்தை தேவிஸ்ரீ பிரசாத் நிரப்புவார்ங்கிறதை இப்பவே எப்படிச் சொல்ல முடியும்? தன்னோட கேரியரில் தொடக்க காலத்தில் இருக்குற அவர் இன்னும் நிறைய சாதிச்சு முடிச்ச பிறகு தான் இப்படி ஒப்பிட முடியும். தமிழ் சினிமா இசையில் எம்.எஸ்.வி.யோ, இளையராஜாவோ இப்போ இருக்குற இடம் யாரோ கொடுத்தது இல்லை. காலம் முடிவு பண்ணுன விஷயம். அவங்களுக்குப் பிறகு யார்ங்கிறதையும் காலம்தான் முடிவு செய்யும். தேவிஸ்ரீ பிரசாத்தைப் பாராட்டுறதுக்காக கமல் இப்படிச் சொல்லியிருக்கார். நல்லா பாடுற ஒரு குழந்தையைப் பார்த்து, ‘லதா மங்கேஷ்கர் மாதிரி பாடறே’ன்னு சொன்னா, அந்தக் குழந்தை லதா மங்கேஷ்கராவே ஆகிட்டதா அர்த்தம் கிடையாது. அந்தக் குழந்தை நல்லா உழைச்சு இந்தப் பாராட்டை உண்மையாக்கணும்னுதான் அர்த்தம்’’ என்று மனதில் பட்டதைத் தயங்காமல் சொல்கிறார், இசையமைப்பாளர் ரமேஷ் விநாயகம்.
நமக்கு எதுக்கு வம்பு என்கிற பதற்றம் எஸ்.ஏ.ராஜ்குமாரிடம் இல்லை. ”கமல் மிகப் பெரிய சீனியர். வளர்ந்துட்டுவர்ற ஒரு கலைஞருக்கான பாராட்டாகத்தான் அவரோட இந்தப் பேச்சை எடுத்துக்கணும். எம்.எஸ்.வி.யும், இளையராஜாவும் மற்ற இசையமைப்பாளர்கள் நினைச்சுப்பார்க்க முடியாத உயரத்துல இருக்குறவங்க. அவங்களை அண்ணாந்துதான் பார்க்க முடியும். அவங்களோட கம்பேர் பண்ணிப் பார்க்க முடியாது. அவங்களுக்குச் சமமா பேசப்படணும்னா, ஒருத்தர் அவங்களைப் போலவே 30 வருஷங் களுக்கு மேலே ஃபீல்டுல இருந்து, தரம் குறையாத இசையைக் கொடுத்திருக்கணும்’’ என்று தெளிவாகச் சொல்கிறார் எஸ்.ஏ.ராஜ்குமார்.
“சினிமாவின் எல்லா டிபார்ட்மெண்ட்களிலும் வேலை பார்க்கக்கூடியளவுக்குத் திறமை உள்ளவர் கமல். ஒரு படத்துக்கு இசையமைக்கக்கூட அவரால் முடியும். விஷயம் தெரியாமல் கமல் இதைச் சொல்லியிருக்க மாட்டார். இளையராஜாவுடன் பல படங்களில் வொர்க் பண்ணியிருக்குறதால், அவரிடம் கவனித்த ஏதோ ஒரு அம்சத்தை அவர் தேவிஸ்ரீ பிரசாத்திடமும் பார்த்திருக்கலாம். ஆனால் தேவிஸ்ரீ பிரசாத் மட்டுமல்ல, வேறு யாருமே எம்.எஸ்.வி., இளையராஜாவின் பே ட்டர்னில் மியூசிக் பண்ணலாமே தவிர, அவங்க இடத்தைப் பிடிக்கவும் முடியாது. அவங்களாவே ஆகிடவும் முடியாது’’ என்கிறார் எஸ்.எஸ்.குமரன்.
சில இசையமைப்பாளர்கள் வெளிப்படையாகப் பேசத் தயாராகவில்லை என்றாலும், நம்மிடம் ரகசியமாகப் புலம்பித் தீர்த்தார்கள். ”சிம்பு, தனுஷ் மாதிரி யாராவது இதைச் சொல்லியிருந்தால் மறுப்பு தெரிவிக்கலாம். கமலுக்கு எதிரா பேச முடியுமா? கமலுக்குத்தான் உண்மை நிலவரம் தெரியாதா? அவருக்குத் தெரிஞ்சேதான் இப்படிப் பேசுறார். என்ன பண்றது? சிவாஜிக்கப்புறம் அந்த இடம் காலியாகவே இருக்கு; சிம்புதான் அதற்குப் பொருத்தமானவர் என்று யாராவது சொன்னால் கமல் சும்மா இருப்பாரா?’’ என்று நம்மிடம் வருத்தப்பட்டார் ஒரு பிரபல இசையமைப்பாளர்..

I havent heard Yuvan in the last 5 yrs. whatever I had heard from him till 2005 had convinced me beyond doubt that he is a sangeetha gnAnasUnyam

Kalyan, Yuvan and harris both are in some ways same level. And NO, it may be your and kamal's taste but he is surely in the likable list of MDs among tamils. DSP is much lower. all he is slightly famous for are telugu type kuthu beat songs!
Karthikraja is technically, in music knowledge, seems too good but here its creativity, vareity and originality, all combined, whithik scores anywherech is the key! except high originality, i don't think karthik raja dosnt hold other esentials!
For many, ur five year hibernation wud go to karthik!

Ferfect !! Yuvan has shown a lot of variety in his compositions. Most importantly, Yuvan got good opportunities, and he made best use of them. Even if Karthik Raja had got those, he would NOT have made his mark.
Kamal-Yuvan combination will definitely happen, but adhuku time koodi varalainngaradhu ennoda karuthu. Kamal definitely has high regards for Yuvan, for he has sung some 3 songs under his composition. Nalla abiprayam illaina, he would have definitely avoided those songs. He was also supposed to sing a number in "Katradhu Tamizh", but don't know why it didn't materialize.
Kamal-Yuvan combination nichayam varum....Audio CD release functionla, "Yuvan is THE best. Better than even Mozart or Beethoven" nu solrara illaiyanu parunga.

He is just an 'ok' actor. Never in the category of Nagesh. We can easily find 10-20 better character actors than him in Malayalam industry.

Day 16: No major change in the no. of shows in Chennai Multiplexes like Inox, PVR, AGS, Sathyam. In Mayajaal, still 25+ shows a day. Theatre complexes like Devi & Kamala which played MMA in 2 theatres for the first 2 weeks are now playing it in 1 screen. Some small theatres like Devi Karumari have replaced it with newer releases. But this happens to many movies in their 3rd week.

solla vArthaigaL illai - nice tune, well orchestrated, the leads between pallavi and intereludes to the charanam were lovely. I think Karthikeyan spoiled it by singing himself thus even managing to neuter deivakuzhandhai's sakkarai effect.
I do so like Karthikeyan's kuthu songs- with the IR trademark of intelligence packed into even kuththu songs and holding back just that last bit of titiliation to give it an elegance so "pacha kiLiyE" was appealing too. (thazhamppoo from Album, Vasanthabalan's first movie, which still stands as the best album for this director, even considering his very good susbequent albums - is another lovely ditty)
The kalyANam song was also functional and had nice flourishes.

Sify (little-naughties) at it again. Friday fury- section la they've written this:
A big film released for Christmas has been stopped screening at Kamala - Screen 2 due to lack of audience. Poodagama solraingalam. Idhu straighta MMA nu sollitu poyirukalam. Wide release agara padam two weeks hold panninadhae periya vishayam, despite bad WOM. What's annoying is they're linking this with movies performance, which in my opinion is doing above average atleast in A centres
Moreover, when I watched it in Kamala (screen 1) last Friday, it was 80% full and in screen 2 it was near full. The ticket kizhikara person was telling that the movie is performing good.

LOL. En ippidi solranga theriyala
Except Enthiran, no other recent release, except MMA ran 2 weeks continuously in 2 screens @ Kamala. As I said before, MMA is still running in AVM Rajeshwari too, which is about 300 metres from Kamala. Of course, there will be a major change next week. As Siruthai, Aadukalam & Kavalan(release aaguma?) will most probably be screened in Kamala, MMA is likely to be removed.
If at all it runs 2 shows a day for another week after Pongal, it is a major achievement.

Ok friends, even i had been waiting with bated breath for the whole of yesterday to get a PM from Nov or Sakala abt that gossip, but i didnt get anything. then in the night, sakala posts something like this

Originally Posted by

then I decided,
'sAma dhAna bhEda dhandam
nAlum thOrthu pOna pinnE
sei thagidu thathOm'
I conspired and posted something and the cat came out of the bag

Now kanna has admitted that he has received a two line PM from sakala. Kanna, pls PM that to all of us
I was holding on waiting for sakala to make an entry, but i feel this has created too much of expectations already, that it has to come to an end.
the highlight of the matter, originally I was waiting for Nov to PM me the gossip, and is Nov himself is asking me to PM him
P.S: since i have quoted 'thagidu thathom' lines from MMA, this entire episode comes within the legal framework of the Hub Penal Code and I request the mods to not consider this as a digressive episode. Thats all your honour.
P.S.2: Kanna, dont forget to forward the PM to all of us
P.S.3: I offer my apologies to those who got irritated after reading this post.

for your information, the movie is running well in all theaters where it was released. the trade anayst already given this movie is a hit one.
In madurai, it is running in 6 theatres and today is a 19th day and it was a very big achievement. after pongal it will run in 2-3 theatres.

I've been following Sreedhar Pillai person since 2002. He used to write in The Hindu metro plus supplement. He never writes good about Kamal. He wrote a box news (adhanga petti seidhi) in The Hindu stating that "Pancha Thanthiram is punctured" just a week after its release in June 28, 2002.
When he reviewed positively about MA , I was a bit surprised. I was even more surprised when he tweeted on 24th December that "Multiplex audience just love MA. Making a film today for them is more viable". These two tweets changed my opinion about him. Even in his list of top 10 films for 2010, he positioned MA at #3.
I was a bit puzzled, when he tweeted "Yes MA is in my list.". Puzzled as to why he should justify the position only for a particular film. Now his other tweets about its BO, worldwide failure confirms that he always has apprehensions when it comes to Kamal's films. I even suspect his involvement in recent Sify's article claiming BO and worldwide failure, lack of audience in Kamala's second screen, etc.
Just in two week's time, he did a U turn saying that MA didn't connect with the audience !!

Sify at it again,for the 2nd time taking potshots at MMA without having the 'dill'to mention it by name.
"Coward" pasanga
Kaavalan's marketing man Sakthi Chidambaram and producer Romesh Babu have been holding marathon discussions with the financiers and distributors to bail out the film.
The latest we hear is that veteran distributor, exhibitor and producer Aascar Ravichandran has stepped into the fray and is trying his best to see that the film releases for Pongal.
Distributors' Council Chairman Kalaipuli G Sekharan, has issued a press statement against theatre owners for deciding not to screen Vijay's films.
Sekharan has powerful connections and he has raised many issues including whether theatre owners would refund the ticket amount to audiences if they are not happy with the film?
He has also asked subtly, whether theatre owners will pressurise other heroes with bigger flops for refunds!
Another major problem that Kaavalan is facing is that the overseas distributor of the film has not been able to sell it due to the failure of another big Tamil film which released recently. There are no buyers at his price in the overseas market.

Review
This rom-com follows the story of an accidental spy, played by Kamal, and a noted Tamil actress played by Trisha. Sangeetha, however steals the show with her exuberance.
Trade Talk:
A Kamal movie never has to have issues during its opening weekends.
Public Talk:
Kamal's dialogues have an unmistakable similarity to Crazy Mohan's.
No. Weeks Completed: 2
No. Shows in Chennai over this weekend: 389
Average Theatre Occupancy over this weekend: 76%
Collection over this weekend in Chennai: Rs. 66,56,963
Total collections in Chennai: Rs. 3.90 Crore
Verdict: Average

In U.S after the first 2 week ends, the crowd drops dramatically for Tamil movies. That happens for all the stars including the so called thalaivar's friend even for 150Cr movies.
And in U.K mostly tamil films run thru the week only in one or two theatres (in a London suburb). In the rest of the country they play it
only during weekends. So number of theaters for MMA in U.K is not an issue at all.
And back home in TN it is a known fact the movie is doing exceptionally good.
So no point in debating about what Sreedhar Pillai or some other journos out there are writing about. What does Pullandan knows about how tamil movies generally perform in U.S and U.K?
In fact MMA did a good business in U.S better than Mumbai Xpress or Kuselan or Aarumugam or Vettaikaran or Billa.

Marmayogi, on a general note, its an accepted fact that MMA didnt impress at BO. lets dont have two opinons on that becos there aren't! now thats not the issue, but calling is a complete washout, that too on a film which is still running in theatres is a too big araajagam! Now, that wont affect the BO is a well known fact but still, ethics, openmindedness about the films which he support, etc are missing a high time with srithar Thollai.
And reg US screens, we dont know a credible info except that its average or so, all over. Nerd mentioned he has exact info abt Texas.
Reg UK, there is agan no info available and there is one site - UK film council or something which is giving a funny list! And in that list MMA was listed some 16 screens or so! Again there is no info to crosscheck that!

I cant for obvious reasons I think I already said how much the losses were percentage wise. I don't want to keep harping on it since it would lead to unnecessary fights, I had to intrude since Kuselan was brought and Rajini was sarcastically ridiculed by marma_yogi. I don't want to spoil the fun here.
Thamiz, Siruthai has been sold to adi maattu price in the USA by Udhayanidhi Stalin (who apparently has no connection with the film, he is the *acting* distributor) to cover up for losses incurred by MMA. Btw, MMA was sold to a high price, which is another reason for the losses. All this is US info.

only during weekends. So number of theaters for MMA in U.K is not an issue at all.
And back home in TN it is a known fact the movie is doing exceptionally good.
So no point in debating about what Sreedhar Pillai or some other journos out there are writing about. What does Pullandan knows about how tamil movies generally perform in U.S and U.K?
In fact MMA did a good business in U.S better than Mumbai Xpress or Kuselan or Aarumugam or Vettaikaran or Billa.
In London, MMA was shown in 5 screens 3 shows on weekdays and 4 shows on weekends. It is still running in 3 screens 1 show daily on 2 screens and 2 shows daily in one screen.

Bro as you had highlighted my statement there, I was not comparing MMA with Endhiran, i was comparing against Kuselan and other movies. Endhiran came in to picture in the very first statement there just to demonstrate the fact only the first 2 weeks are crucial in the U.S market for all the stars!

knock knock hello - FYKI, I personally dont care if MMA ran for a year to packed houses all over the world, or it simply bit the dust, sinking without a trace - it has been a while since I saw an Indian film in a movie hall - for that matter, my line of work and other commitments are making it increasingly difficult for me to find time to sit, relax and enjoy a film - especially a 2 and 1/2 hrs film replete with unnecessary song and dance sequences - I would spend the same time, reading a good book (be it pulp fiction, or semi-biography or a commentary - just finished Forsyth's 'The Cobra', and James Lee Burke's 'Tin Roof Blowdown' - have a few more to finish).
And I wouldnt care less if some other movie by some other star broke all existing records - my work is my worship - if a movie is compelling enough with its content, i will automatically be drawn to that film - no matter whose film it is - and even if someone were to hand over a roundtrip plus week-long vacation in an exotic resort, in exchange for watching certain films, I would refuse the offer - i know my priorities, what I like and what I dont.
But if Tamil cinema is going to be judged merely by BO records, it will go the Bollywood way in the 1990s - HUM AAPKE HAIN KAUN with its BO success must rate an alltime classic!
I dont want that, but if that is the fate, I cant do much abt it!
all of this does not make MMA a great film btw! it could still be a bad film, especially by Kamal's own standards, but that is another story altogether - even if it were, it does not take away an iota of respect and adulation I have for Kamal the creator, though I am unhappy with his mixed-up priorities
ta ta!

Kamal has compensated as a producer, for mumbai xpress and hey raam. Just as an actor, he lost / left a big part of salary for aalavanthaan.
Actor must take part in compensation if the film is sold for high rates and if the actor was offered a huge compensation.
I find this high ethics in both the UNs and thus combine them for praising

If i m not wrong it waz kamal sir's story.. and he wasnt the producer... ella thetare ownersum paying high for him.. coz they belief he s profitable... to get that position he worked hard for many years.. ithu netru innaikku vanthathu illai...
so.. theatre owners r getting the movie at their risk... if ny financila matter it should be within the producer, distributors, and the cinema owners..
by doing this... he had made a wrong example todate... That his great gesture to do so... but keeping this as an example everyone cant go for this.. he s a worker in the movie.... he s getting paid for what heperformed for a movie... the service rendered.. paid.. thats all...
Have u heard a single thing as Kamal was given millions by theatre owners for making the movie a blockbuster.. silly isnt it?
i dnt think it comes under a starts ethic.. ippavum ithu en opinion thaan

Regarding an actor compensating,It need not happen.This is a business and distributors/exhibitors pay as they believe they will be a good ROI.If there is a loss,it has to be treated as a bad decision.
Ganging up,issuing RED CARD,telling they will not screen the actor's next movie etc is silly.
At the same time,if an actor/producer decide to compensate willingly keeping in mind future business relationship,they cannot be faulted and IMHO,it is not setting a bad precedent.
BTW,anybody can tell the exact BO performance of MMA-budget,sold at what price in TN,Kerala,Karnataka,Andhra and abroad.What is the ROI- +ve OR -ve?

in 2010 bollywood had 230 films released and 200 were flops. all movies cannot be compensated. generally compensation is done if the loss if too much and even in that case 100% is not compensated becos surely the exibitors wud have made money in opening and subsequent weekends. Kamal doesn't demand distributors to hold a function to praise him for compensating crores of money. In rare case, if his movies run into loss for exibitors, and if, the loss is big, kamal and his producers does optimum compensation under the hood. Even now, this news was leaked by nerd unofficially and nothing is public!
Afterall exibitors and distributors too shud be happy right? Its they who carry your idol's movie to the public!

Yes.. i welcome ur opinion as well.. future releationship s very well needed.. but i feel it should hav a proper constitution device. If Kamal has done that, all the owners may use it as a tool to dig others, which will not give a helthy relationship as a whole in the field for tamil films in future...

Kuselan did not do very well but it was not as bad as MMAmbu. I am not sure if it was compensated in the USA, tamizharasan's friend was distributing in the USA, so he may know better. I have very little information about Kuselan. The Texas area distributors had < 5% losses so they did not complain.
Btw, on this Kamal had nothing to do with the losses or the profit. UN sold this film to high prices by saying, Thenali, PT, AShanmugi maadhiri oru padam and he did assure them that we have pongal releases coming up and he was ready to compensate if the movie does not do well. And siruthai wont do well-nradhu vera vishayam but the distributors will be happy by the end of the day. So it was not sold as a Kamal film ala MX or Hey Raam but as a KH-KSR film.
On Enthiran, nice try by everyone but even if one were to believe tc.com, it only puts the blame on the theater owners who were greedy. Also film being removed, it was released in 40+ screens in Chennai for God's sakes and around 80% of screens all over TN bought the film on a per week basis, meaning even if the film does well or runs to empty houses, they have to screen it for the no. of weeks they had bought.

Nerd, i didn't try to say anything like enthiran was a loss etc. but i do have my doubts that there are certain blind spots at few places. Nobody has a solid info about the amount of loss, and nobody knows what rate it was sold for and if the minimal losses were compensated under the hood.
One article appeared in tc.com which as you ppl say and that too may be out of greed, nobody knows.
My main grouse was about the honesty of srithar thollai in accepting the facts about kuselan and enthiran. We cannot but he can get or know an answer for the sudish kamath's tweet. As a person who is capable of getting worldwide MMA BO result sitting in one place, he has the capacity to anwer but he doesn't have the guts for same.
athula ellaam kaattaatha aarvam + nermai, he shows on MMA, which is still running in theatres. that is my main and big irritation on him.
Btw, MMA is a pillapoochi but it was never intended so, instead, it became so, which is something kamal shud not repeat in future. the result is irritating and annoying for an arist of his status

I don't think GFC had anything to do w.r.to Enthiran. Sun TV sold the rights among *themselves*. Anbu (IIRC) is a DMK person and he had Chennai rights. His brother, Alagar I think had the Madurai rights. But Sun was directly involved with many theaters.

I have very little information about Kuselan. The Texas area distributors had < 5% losses so they did not complain.

That's the little information I have. Comparing performances of Rajini-Kamal film is the favorite pasttime of many in the industry. And I have sources which confirmed that K > MMA. I don't know how much K made overall or in some areas. I only know the overall picture. And regarding MMA as I said earlier I have lots of information since people I know are
directly involved.
You are welcome to ignore my posts. I am just saying what I know and since somebody compared E and K with MMA.

kID,
I think nerd's quote was with regard to US only. In TN, it should have raked decent profits, as it was running unanimously for these many days and shows..especially the AA - Multiplexes and A' center theatres..
But the promos by RG really sucked big time and the best part is handing it over to GFC.. and thus they reduced their own promos.. rather every other single movie bought by the moon banner promoted just like that... for example this playground.. can't digest the add et all..

If your sources confirmed K's ROI is > MMA's ROI, it would be great if you can publish some numbers here. Will help people like me.
K didn't run in A, B or C centers and oversees. (this is a general take and every one in those markets knows it, no need to over hype it here)
MMA is still doing good in A centers. And oversees (i can only talk about my area DC/VA/MD here) it did very well in the first 2 weeks. That's the default for super stars and actors even if the movie is bad. Only exceptions are movies like 10A and multicrore extravaganzas which run more than 2 weeks.

K's opening was > UPO/MMA in Chennai. Yes or No? K did very well in Msia/UK/Spore/USA. Not as much as it was expected but it was break even in 80% of the centers overseas.
And Sakala K just made 8C? It made 2.5C INR in Malaysia alone. Rest is upto you to figure. Yes it was a disaster since it could not even make 1/3 of the amount it was sold.

Nerd, I expected this reply, but again, there is even weekly BW collection reports for kuselan where it showed as fared better for few days. But i guess that 8 crores maybe, maybe the final amount after the investments or so. Even otherwise, i dont know but there shud be some meaning for that figure...Its Indiatimes, first one to report Enthiran BO figures.
In same basis if you ask what will be MMA collection minus all the investments, as of now there is no solid report. We have to wait for whatever bad or average.
Why pongal, already its removed in 1 or 2 centers in chennai

AVM rajeswari is said to release Siruthai, not iLaignan. Kamala and/or udayam has multiple screens so they will retain MMA so re-screening chances lessin AVM
Budget is phaive phingers

but the film doesn't look so. Incl Sir's renumeration it maynot cross 35/40 and maybe 5 fingers are the selling cost, which in a way becomes the figure to exceed/reach.
Nerd, regarding opening, No of shows was actually increased both in satyam and mayajaal. Now both r reduced ngrathu vera vishayam. Naan previous threadla post panninen, cudnt get link. satyam increased one show and mayajaal made it from 45 perday to 48, for quite some days.
Thamiz, in 1st week robot made 300 cr illayaa, athu maathiri thaan ithuvum. We don't have official source for total worldwide collections for 1st two weeks. Both sify and BW reports only theatres inside city. mayajaal and sub-urbans not in list. In australia, removed for 2nd week and again released 3rd week.

Collection wise first 2 weeks, it was descent (4 Crores). after pongal definitely will be reduced drastically due to new releases.
But chances are more that they (theatre owners, distributors) might have got a decent collection amount and some places good profit amount.
still the crowd capacity is more than 60% during week days. yesterday my brother watched movie in madurai, evening show and the crowd was more than 60-65%. Also he's more happy with story and comedy.
especially toilet scene comedy was superb for him. madhavan is too smart to devliver that toilet comedy

Man I am not the one claiming all these inside info facts like some people do here. It even went to the extend of someone claiming they know MMA collection details up to a cent, and that K did better than MMA in US but don't know how much K collected!
In the washington DC area I went for the second weekend inspite of knowing about that movie and hardly there were anyone in the movie hall. I don't claim to have inside information like others do. I am just telling the ground reality for K when it was released.

it surely has to be! action movie doesn't be about killing pakisthaan theeviravaathis or so. Dasavatharam, VV, MX, Virumaandi, Aalavanthaan etc were action movies respectively.
Next movie has less chance to be a talkie kind, like MMA Vasoolraja, UPO etc.

That is very normal.

You certainly dont want to hear the second weekend story for MMA in US as it may lead to lot of provocation.

Only point of reference is # of theatres and respective # of shows.
cinefan, MMA (MMBanam) did not do well in Hyderabad and Andhra for sure. I dont know about Kerala.

Exactly. I saw MMA second weekend with 8 others in the theater in the mid-west. I saw K twice during the opening weekend, once during second, once during third. K's opening obv >> MMA and second weekend had around 50 ppl and third weekend had around 20 ppl in the theater.
I suggest m_y to stop talking about K.

In sharjah also, kavithai was not removed. That's the one important scene where both kamal & trisha falling on love with each other.
but when it's removed in TN, i don't know how can they able to convince the audience for the reason.
Udhayanidhi did a mistake of removing that scene. so think that, there is a missing of continiuity.

dear arun,
don't expect more crowds during week days and especially every one is busy in their personal work for pongal.
if it's on satruday & sunday, definitely crowd will be there. also this week more new movies are releasing which will also reduce the crowd during week end.
what i am saying that this movies is already collected the descent amount and hit one.

Scenario #1: I posted that there were 8 other people (we made it to 10) in Columbus, OH in the NY weekend. Is this so difficult to count 8 people with just a glance? People usually occupy the first 3 rows and they do turn the lights on during interval. And in desi theaters, like the one we went to they usually leave the lights on 10 minutes in to the film until I or somebody else whistle to let them know.
Scenario#2: I said I know how much money it made in the TX area. You would see distributors or the representatives in theaters screening a thamizh film for ALL shows in the USA. Why, because desi theater owners usually rig the head-count in order to pay the distributors less. It does not happen in American theater joints, obviously. So duty of a distributor (or his representative) is to go to each and every show and do a physical head count. I asked my friends, who are HC Rajini fans in the Houston area to do that and they even stuck posters of MMA a week before the screening in the Houston area on various Indian restaurants. So its not my opinion, for ****'s sake, its a f-in fact.. I had no intentions in posting all that until somebody questioned this and compared K with this.

SKV - there is not a single Rajini film that I have missed during my school days - and then there was a hiatus, with panakkaran, mannan, tharma dhurai, etc, before i saw 'thalapathy' which was the last Rajini film i have seen in a movie hall !
for me there is no opposite camp, main camp etc - when I watch Kamal in certain films, it is embarassing to say the least! but overall he has not disappointed much - at some point of time, Rajini's films began to give me (its all IMHO) the feeling of being cheated of my aesthetic expectations - hence, I avoid
and then with graduate studies, I couldnt watch many films at all- it became too tight for me, that i cudnt watch Virumandi, Anbe Sivam, until after a year of their release! and I have not watched Vasool raja MBBS until now!

Someone said MMA was reduced from 17 to 3 screens last week. The following report says it was there in 14 screens in the 3rd weekend..i.e before Pongal. Maybe after Pongal they reduced it to 3 screens...But collections onnum sollikkara madhiri illa...
MANMADHAN AMBU [Tamil; last weekend: No. 20, this weekend: No. 42]: In its third weekend, the film has collected £ 2,446 on 14 screens, with the per screen average working out to £ 175. Total: £ 1,31,327 [approx. Rs. 92.58 lacs].

OTOH, UK collections are almost twice as much as what UPO collected in 3 weeks and < half of Dasa's UK collections.
UNNAIPOL ORUVAN [Tamil film; last weekend: No. 32, this weekend: No. 53]: In its third weekend, the film has collected £ 1,480 on 2 screens, with the per screen average working out to £ 740. Total: £ 73,458 [approx. Rs. 55.36 lacs].
But UPO was a 12 crore movie, which made a neat profit, even with less overseas collections.
Can someone confirm MMA's budget? Is it really 50 crores or is this just an inflated figure?

As per kamal speech during MMA promo time, he shown 5 fingers (meaning 50 crores) to the interviewer at the time of asking about the movie budget and highlighted that this is the high budget film. but not like dasavatharam budget.
so no official information about budget.
even if it's 50 crores budget, definitely the collection should be totally more than 60-70 crores including overseas. because it was released so many theatres all over the word during the release time and so definitely by this time, the movie might have got good collection.

Many of the Kamal fans did not have a good opinion about this movie
prior to its release and spread the news that they are not expecting anything good out of it.. This is one of the reasons the film did not get the response of a normal Kamal movie like Dasa..

CBO Update (Jan 14th 2010 to Jan 16th 2011)
Kamal’s Manmadhan Ambu is an opulent visual treat, mostly set in a cruise ship following the lives of Kamal, Trisha, Sangeetha and Madhavan. Kamal is in his usual crackling self and Trisha adorable. But the real cracker is Sangeetha who snatches the show from both its leads many a times.
Trade Talk:
The movie is still holding on to the charts despite the onslaught of new releases; thanks to the Kamal charm!
Public Talk:
Everything has been talked about, over and over!
No. Weeks Completed: 3
No. Shows in Chennai over this weekend: 54
Average Theatre Occupancy over this weekend: 68%
Collection over this weekend in Chennai: Rs. 5,50,476
Total collections in Chennai: Rs. 4.57 Crore
Verdict: Average

In chennai alone, the collection amount was already crossed 4.55 crores in 3 weeks. so surely it will cross 6 crores in another 20 days.

as those days were still non-internet days, the details are mostly verbal and offline. Print media is a good source.
since you ask, " inspite of that movie bombing, opening was too good, wide release actually helped to some extent, and it was somewhat a hit, but the problem was its selling cost, high budget, and hindi version becoming dud etc.
a smart producer like aascar wud have released it on his own, no distributors in middle, and made decent money.

Ajay, it is a favourite movie of many fans. Even many non-Kamal fans liked it - specially family audience. A friend of my brother who is a hard core Rajini fan, called up after watching VV - FDFS in Abudhabi and said "Chance'E illa - padam sure blockbuster" - that was the liking VV had from all corners. VV success'a intentionally undermine paNNuravanga irukkaanga - even Kamal doesnt want to talk about it much, but Dasa, Alavanthaan paththi ellaam paesittE -iruppaar. IMO, VV is a much better movie than those two and surely helped Kamal regain his box offcie status.
Mumbai Express was expected well, infact, in chennai MX had few more theatres than Chandramuki.
Adhuvum en espettation maathiriyae amenjuthu
Again, aalavanthaan came with huge expectations.
Raveena Tandon and Songs - appavae therinjuthu - it wont live up to the hype'nu.

if we do open talk, these last minit changes wud have been told to kamal while writing the script itself.
"naan eluthitrunthena, thideernu udayanithi vanthu maatha sonnaaru" ithenna iskool pasanga pola, i guess, he himself wont like to put it as a limiting factor/reason/saakku!
being known his screenplay skills which are one and only, i will expect he wrote some better comedy or added more comedy and romance all over, thus keeping the climax unchanged.
and also, MMA is becoming the case of mumbai express. i wud boldly say that
kumudam review was very perfect in pointing the minuses of the film, something which kamal shud never think of repeating( aaL maaraatta comedy etc)

More than Raveena, Manisha Koirala had become manusha gorilla by the time of this film and was more off-putting.
I agree that the song trailers werent quite enticing and until I saw the movie, I quite was in rejeet mode. Lotsa extra paddings - basically, the key aspect of the movie is abhay vs vijay, and it was well realised, too. Raveena, Manisa etc pOndra estra fittings spoiled it.

கமல் நடித்த மன்மதன் அம்பு படத்தை ரஜினியின் எந்திரன் போன்ற பெரும் வெற்றிப் படத்தோடு ஒப்பிடுவது தவறு. எதிர்ப்பார்த்த மாதிரி இந்தப் படம் ஓடவில்லை என்பதை ஒப்புக் கொள்கிறேன், என்று கூறியுள்ளார் நடிகர் மாதவன்.
இதுகுறித்து சமீபத்தில் மாதவன் அளித்துள்ள பேட்டி:
ரஜினி சார் நடித்த எந்திரன் மற்றும் அந்தப் படத்துக்குக் கிடைத்த வரவேற்பு, வசூலுடன் மன்மதன் அம்பு படத்தை ஒப்பிடுவது தவறு. சில நேரங்களில் எல்லாம் சரியாக செய்தாலும் ஏதோ ஒரு தவறால் தோல்வி ஏற்பட்டு விடும். மன்மதன் அம்பிலும் அதுதான் நடந்தது.
பாக்ஸ் ஆபீஸில் எந்திரன் அளவுக்கெல்லாம் இந்தப் படம் சாதிக்காது என்பது தெரியும். இது ஒரு சுமாரான படம். ஓரளவு வசூல் இருந்தது என்பதே உண்மை. இந்தப் படத்தில் எனது வேடம் மிகவும் நல்ல விமர்சனங்களைப் பெற்றது. அது உண்மையிலேயே எனக்கு மகிழ்ச்சி தரும் விஷயம்தான்," என்றார்.

ஒரு படம் வெற்றி பெற்றதா இல்லையா என்பதை மதுரையில் ஓடுவதை வைத்தே தெரிந்து கொள்ளலாம்.
உதாரணத்திற்கு மூன்றாம் பிறை சென்னையில் 300 நாட்களுக்கு மேல் ஒடியது. ஆனால் மதுரையில் 50 நாட்கள் கூட ஒட வில்லை. அது வெற்றிப்படம் கிடையாது.

மேடி பேச்சு.... பிரச்சனை ஆச்சு!
கொந்தளித்த கமல்ஹாசன்..
சிலருக்கு வாயே நோய்! அந்த சிலரில் முதலிடத்தில் இருப்பார் போலிருக்கிறது மாதவன். கடந்த சில வருடங்களுக்கு முன் திரைப்பட தயாரிப்பாளர்கள் பற்றி இவர் கொடுத்த பேட்டி ஒன்று பெரும் விவகாரத்தில் கொண்டுபோய் விட்டது மேடியை. தயாரிப்பாளர் சங்கத்திற்கு நேரில் வந்து மன்னிப்பு கேட்கணும். இல்லையென்றால் எல்லா மொழிகளிலும் தடை என்ற வஜ்ராயுதத்தை எடுத்து வீசியது சங்கம்.
அப்புறமென்ன? அடக்கமே அமரருள் ஊய்க்க அமைதியாக வந்திறங்கினார் மேடி. வார்த்தைக்கே வலிக்காமல் ஒரு மன்னிப்பை கேட்டுவிட்டு ஓடிப் போனார். அதெல்லாம் மறந்திருக்கும் போல... சமீபத்தில் ஒரு முன்னணி இதழில் எந்திரனை விட மன்மதன் அம்பு சுமாரான படம்தான் என்று கருத்து தெரிவித்திருக்கிறார்.
இந்த கருத்தை யார் வேண்டுமானாலும் சொல்லலாம். திருப்பதியில் நின்று கொண்டு மொட்டையை விமர்சிக்கலாமா? இதே படத்தில் முக்கிய கேரக்டரில் நடித்திருக்கும் இவரே சொன்னதுதான் வினை. மேடிக்கு விழுந்தது மொத்து! படம் தொடர்பான அத்தனை பேரும் ஒரு முறை போனில் வந்து இஞ்சி மரபா கொடுத்தார்கள். கடைசியாக வந்தது கமல்ஹாசன்தானாம்.
இனிமே இப்படியெல்லாம் வாயை விட மாட்டேன் என்று மாதவன் மனம் வருந்திய பிறகுதான் கூலானாராம் உலக நாயகன்!

'Pazhassi Raja' Producer Promises Kamal Haasan
Kamal Haasan is going through good times now as the producers from various regional industries are coming forward to produce his movie. While
Selvaraghavan-Kamal Haasan project has found a renowned producer from Telugu film industry, here comes another boon from God’s own country.
Gokulam Gopalan of Gokulam Films has produced various blockbusters including Mammooty-Sarath Kumar starrer ‘Pazhassi Raja’. The producer has now acquired the Kerala rights for Kamal Haasan’s ‘Manmadhan Ambu’ and is spinning some good profits.
During a media interaction that was held, Kamal Haasan expressed that he is very much fond of acting in Malayalam movies, but hasn’t found the right opportunity. Apparently, Gokulam Gopalan was there giving a surprise that he is ready to produce his film in Malayalam.

Hi guys just saw the film again for the second time but this i saw it with parents and they said that they fully enjoyed to the core and said the film was really fun to watch just like all ksr- kamal combos. My dearest ulaga nayagan has once again proved that he is the king of indian cinema by selecting a great script. After seeing it for the second time I must say that it was easier to follow and Ulaga Nayagan rocks to the core. Everyone did a great job including the females and madhavan. Semma treat for family audiences. This is one of the best films in 2010 and Class Kamal is back in town. Now my biggest question is how can people say this movie is poor and didn't do well at the box office because it is so entertaining..... I'm sure they are just jealous haters. Those who didn't like this film have a very poor taste.
Final Verdict: Absolutely fantastic film for everyone!
Rating: 4/5

very good in most parts.. impactful film.. last 30 mins were not at all convincing to me.. not the storyline or who-gets-who.. but the way it is presented.. sudden change of genre ellaam thevai illa thaan.. neraya dialogue enakku pudichuthu.. sila idangal-la pudikkala.. kavithai scene kalakkal..

Kamal scenes where he acts emotional and tells trisha about his wife and all is really fantastic. I can say that after this film I will never read a kamal movie review again because no matter the reviews his films will always rock

Some people didn't have the intellectual capacity to derive the meanings behind the intelligent dialogues present in the movie so therefore they start saying that its a poor film when in reality its their fault for not being able to comprehend the messages. Ulaga Nayagan has always been ahead of the game mark my words MMA will be praised in another 10 years for its unique concept and novelty. The film is of a totally different genre

Remember that the same situation happened to older kamal films as well like guna... it was hailed as a classic after 10 years.

Its quite unfortunate that it takes 10 years for the common people to understand kamal's advanced work... cheer up folks we are well ahead of others

Kamal Hassan-Madhavan-Trisha starrer ‘Manmadhan Ambu‘ hit the silver screens on Thursday (December 23,2010) and it was really party time for fans of the ‘Ulaganayan.’
The Bangalore fans of Kamal celebrated their Thalaivar’s film release with about 6 lakhs of flower decoration and banners at Natraj theatre.
They also had a gala time bursting crackers and distributing sweets, and some ardent fans also performed ‘pal abishekam’ to Kamal’s portrait.
Here are the stills of the banners and flower decorations at Natraj Theatre, Bangalore
