After watching Vijay starring in Beast Tamil movie written & directed by Nelson Dilipkumar and then Kamal Haasan starring Vikram written & directed by Lokesh Kanagaraj, it was like day and night when it came to quality, storyline and action. It was no doubt that Beast was the dumbest movie for the year 2022. Then we had Rajinikanth starring Jailer written & directed by the same Nelson Dilipkumar. So what could possibly go wrong, right?

In terms of acting, after the great Sivaji Ganesan, we were lucky to have Kamal Haasan taking up the lead when it comes to powerful acting. And over the years, he has not let us down with a powerful storyline and acting (still remember this?).

It supposes to be a quick post on Shankar’s Nanban but I ended up writing more especially after yesterday I watched again the well made 3 Idiots
(The guy on the far right – your right – seems better than the rest. Trust me, you will be safer watching the original 3 Idiots than the “new” idiots in Nanban – they are nowhere close to the beauty of story-telling and acting in 3 Idiots. Poster source: Indiaglitz)
