my blog post directed to director-bala.



I am sure everybody here knows what to expect out of me :P

ஒன்றை மிஞ்சும்படி இன்னொன்று. படம் பார்த்த யாரும் சிரித்தபடி வீட்டுக்கு செல்லக்கூடாது என்று கங்கணம் கட்டிக்கொண்டு படம் எடுக்கிறார். கொடுத்த காசுக்கு எப்படி எல்ல்லாம் அழ வைக்க முடியும், எவ்வளவு pessimism காண்பிக்க முடியும், எத்தனை அழுகிய / பழுதுபட்ட இடங்களை உயிரூட்ட முடியும், என்று, தன்னுள் தானே ஆழ்ந்து, இன்னும் இன்னும் கீழே என நோண்டித் தோண்டிப்பார்க்கிறார்.

உங்களின் வண்ணங்களற்ற உயிரற்ற உணர்வுகளின் ஓவியப் பரிசளிப்பு எங்களுக்கு பல நேரங்களில் மனவருத்தத்தையும், ஆழ்ந்த துக்கத்தையுமே மட்டுமே தருகிறது। SP Madam,

Possibly Bala might have followed the principles of Osho. According to Osho, sadness has a few beauties which happiness can never have. Sadness has depth, happiness is always shallow. Sadness has tears and tears go deeper than laughter can ever go. Sadness has a silence of its own, a melody, which happiness can never have. Happiness will have its own song, more noisy, not so silent. He has not said to choose sadness but try to enjoy it too. And when we are happy, happiness has to be enjoyed.

If a man of laughter is also a man of tears - then a man is perfectly BALAnced. If anyone really wants to laugh, first he should learn how to weap. IMO, Bala's movies equally shared both humour and sadness. NK too had lot of humour scenes amidst sadness which keeps the movie going. Since the impact of sadness is more on us, we failed to notice or enjoy the funnier moments.

Siricha madhiri padam venumgravangalukku-than Vikraman madhiri aatkal irukkanga..... avanga padathayum parkka mattoam.. Bala-vum sirichamadhirithan padam edukkanum.. appadi edutha manasukku sandhosam.. aana appavum parkka mattoam.. ippadi sonna eppadi

Actually, there is a lot of humour in Bala's movies. Maybe it is too dark for some people - everything doesnt work for someone or the other so we should let it go

IppO dhAn note pannREn thread-ai. Bala thread titlekku indha gimmicks ellAm thEvaiyA? Anyway how about a poll? Best film of Bala? For me, it's sEthu. Seen it 5+ times and seen his others only once, that's one of the reasons may be. Also I think of all his movies sEthu had the best BGM

[S.T.D.]

For me its his Naan Kadavul alone.

Steve,

I agree. All around who watch the movie aren't steve or sp or hr or anyone who UNDERSTANDS what is what. Normal layman gets inspired by movies or sulks again thro movies. HE LIVES in movies.

I just mentioned, such good skills can be instrumental for diff causes too. (and, I aint talking about the movies which he did already)

I am NOT mentioning that these movies aren't done well, or should have been different. I just feel, he can, given his talent take up different SUBJECT line *TOO* .

[Ifroham4]

and steve, thanks for reading

enaku padam parka aasaiyaay irukku. Thunaikku yaarum illai

I am sure NK would be the best of his movies.

For me too its sethu though NK wud come a very close second followed again closely by PM. Nanda konjam distance la 4th. lemme try opening a poll

[Beerinkol]

surprisingly its Nandha which stands 1st in my list.
imo Nandha had an interesting sub plot coupled with well knit chracters.
