Unnal Mudiyum Thambi

great direction, great acting and what i call "MUSIC" illayaraja is god.

this movie had strong characters, very good direction and a great message told very effectively.

Kamal plays the son of a great singer (played well by gemini ganesan). He does not like to follow his family traditions blindly and becomes kind of a rebel within the family.

he has some ideas about how a society should be and shares the same with sita (his girl friend). he decides to inculcate some values in the people around him and make the place around him a better place to live in.

great movie, the songs rock thumbs up

Usually Tamil movies would portray a brahmin Carnatic singer. The director chose a Saiva Pillai(Bilahari Marthaandam Pillai) as a Varna system following castiest. His son, at a very young age, with exposure to the lives of poor people becomes a rebel. He sees problems of other people as his own and fights for the empowerment of his whole villagers. The Beauty of the movie is, there's yet another castiest who's an owner of a fireworks factory. This castiest shows his enemity towards elite people. On the whole, the movie might give you lot of positivity and motivation.

The protagonist named Udayamurthy for a reason. He was director's classmate at Annamalai University. M S Udayamurthy had written several articles in Ananda Vikatan.

Good Movie. Everybody acted good in the movie. Songs and BGM in the movie were not so good. The movie somewhat lagged at 1st half. The movie was interesting at 2nd half. Good Movie.

I would start commenting about the movie by the words of KB. In one of the interviews he said that this movie is his 2nd best movie made.

We come to see Gemini Ganesan after a long gap, and the performance of all the characters are top notch.

In all KB movies even a peck may have a role to play. I was deeply moved by the COOK's character. The movie deals with a protagonist who is a maverick and doesn't want to follow the same stupid things which even his dad is following now. The concept of inter caste marriage, abolition of Liquor shops etc are very well etched in the movie.

The humor aspect and the Background score are excellent.

A must watch movie.

Protagonist goinng towards making a social reform and aginst his father's musical journey beliefs. I liked the way the movie started by displaying a village with such a discipline & following good principles hence expected a lot like that but i was only disappointed. I believe it could've been better for sure but it was exactly 30years back that the movie was released hence nothing more to expect.
