Trying for George Bush to see himself in 'Dasavatharam'
- IndiaGlitz, [Tuesday,May 27 2008]
What must be the greatest advantage that an actor possessing a caliber like Kamal Haasan enjoys in going for roles that comes as complete strangers to the list of the kind of characters that film lovers have ever seen on the screens?
The answer is that neither hardcore film enthusiasts nor people who have the minimum required knowledge on films and are least interested even in a casual teal shop discussion about actors or about the latest happenings in the film industries will ever doubt whether he will be able to carry off 10 different roles with 10 different voices and physical attributes breathing air into a story that spans hundreds of years.
Only a few actors ever come close to go for these kinds of challenges and explaining why Kamal Haasan chooses these kinds of films is of no need and is practically impossible as only the great actor himself can explain how he decides on his next project.
And when the veteran actor has formed a team with the best of the cream of the actors and technicians and person like K.S.Ravikumar sitting in the director's chair and Oscar Ravichandran financing the project, fantastic promos that have already captured the cinema lovers attention, uncountable press reports and the Asian Hollywood star Jackie Chan himself attending the audio release in Chennai, We can ask is there anything else that is to be done now to make sure that this attempt will remain a unique one till the end of time?
So is there anything more than this film should ask for and look into its arsenal to finish up any uncompleted tasks that can push the film even higher?
Being the chief guest of the audio launch function and himself admitting about the impact and quality of the movie after watching the promos, Jackie Chan is entitled to get a copy of the whole film.
So the makers of Kamal Haasan's epic movie are also planning to send the copy of the film to Jackie chan.
But, any wild guesses to know who is the next person who the producer of the epic film is trying to get to see their dear baby film conceived extracting the best drops of tremendous self belief and withstanding the onslaught of creative confusion that descends like a smog before the eternal sunlight comes in the form of crystal clear polished refined ideas fully ready to be executed tearing it apart.
The makers of 'Dasavatharam' is now trying to get the President of United states of America George Bush to get to see the film as they feel that it will add to the status of the film.
They are trying to get the print of the film to the American President through the Governor of the state of Louisana Bobby Jindal who other than being a person of Indian origin is also the youngest governor of the state that he represents and also the first non-white Governor in U.S.A. in 130 years.
For this purpose a print of the film along with notes on the movie has been already sent to Bobby Jindal.
And if ever Geroge Bush happens to watch the movie, do you think he will fail to include it in his collection of presents that he has got during his tenure in the White House as everyone knows that the America President is one of the 10 roles enacted by Kamal Hassan in 'Dasavatharam'.
So just think of George Bush's excitement when he sees himself on the screen.
The makers of the movie is trying for more ways to make 'Dasavatharam' a film which has more number ones in its kitty even before its release.
This film will always be considered in the history of Indian Films as one of the few works that have managed to create hype to this extent and got a kind of attention from the members of the audience like never before.
But Until the hour before the release of this film there is enough and more time to expect more juicy information regarding the film or just about anything that is related to the film and who knows the makers must have already thought of some novel ways to be used as the ultimate publicity weapon in the final days leading to the countdown.
