Thamirabarani- A disaster

Iif you are worried that this is about some natural calamity to do with the river Thamirabarani, please don’t panic. This has got nothing to do with that. This is all about the latest movie in Tamil from the director Hari which I was destined to watch it yesterday night. I had few questions in my mind after watching this movie. Is this movie worth at least a little to be written over? Do the makers of a movie ever watch after taking it? Why Hari has to show his anger in this way to people? Is this his way of taking revenge for not making his previous ‘Aaru’ film a hit?

The story is the most creative story I had ever seen in Tamil cinema. Forget about Tamil cinema. It’s the first ever movie of this story line we ever had in world cinema. The story is about two families and its rivalry between them in a village in Southern Tamilnadu. A love story from the two families, and later they come to know that they are cousins. Everyone turning out to be good in the end and a happily lived ever after end. Wow. !!! How creative a director could go in Tamil cinema? Are there any standards set for that? If so, Hari has broken all the heights, limits whatever and set a new height for creativity.

This movie should be made as case study for all the students involved in film studies. Hari should be selected as Juror for all the film festivals happening around the world. C’mon he deserves more than that.

He should be given a ‘Life Time Achievement’ award and sent back to his native. The reason it has to be made the case study is so that the students should realize that they should take better movies as an act of condolence for the viewers who watched it.

In brief, one more disaster from Tamil film industry.
