Kamal Haasan

What else can be a better reason to watch a Kamal Haasan film? The films that have had the association of Kamal Haasan in any form have been superior in one way or other. In that way 'Thoongavanam' is definitely going to be an experience that should not be missed for just this reason.

Kamal playing his age

Kamal Haasan is still a top leaguestar and is still capable of looking young and sporting six pack physique in films. But he has lead the way in playing the roles that suit his real life age. In 'Uttama Villain' he acted as an ageing superstar and in 'Papanasam' he acted as a middle aged father of children at their teens.

Deepavali release after 14 years

The last occasion when Kamal had a Deepavali release was with 'Aalavandhan' in 2001. The film was way ahead of its time and the box office returns were not pleasing. But the preceding year's Deepavali saw the release of 'Thenali' which was one of the biggest blockbusters in Kamal's career and the film completed a massive 175 days run in theaters.
