Kamal Hassan, who had always advocated the cause of blending literature with cinema, has expressed happiness that eminent writer Neela PadmanabhanÂs novel ÂThalaimuraigal is being made into a film as ÂMagizhchiÂ.
ÂItÂs my longtime wish that celebrated novels be made as films. I am happy that Gowthaman has come forward to film Neela PadmanabhanÂs much acclaimed ÂThalaimuraigalÂ. He is a great writer whose work should be celebrated by one and all, the veteran actor said.
He added: ÂLiterature should be mixed with cinema. Only then meaningful movies could be made. Kudos to Gowthaman and his team for his honest attempt. I am literally happy about Magizhchi. Expressing gratitude to Kamal, Gowthaman, who is also one of the lead actors of ÂMagizhchiÂ, says, ÂIt is a movie for everyone. This is one novel that impressed me and I read it over and over again. I actually spent 12 years writing the screenplay for this movie.Â
Director Seeman and Prakash Raj have played crucial roles in this movie. Anjali and Karthika are the two heroines. According to the director, VidyasagarÂs music plays such an important role that it has taken the form of a character in the film.
