Why
such attention to detail? It
is for obvious reasons. It is
no longer as easy to shoot with
animals as it was in yesteryears.
There are many organizations
like the PETA that have come
forward against the use of animals
in films, branding it as torture.
If at all the use of animals
is unavoidable, then good care
must be taken. If they come
to know about any mishandling
of the animals, then they are
prompt to move the court. Then
there is no end to the problems
that a movie can face. Remember
the problems Imsai Arasan went
through before its release.

Evidently, the producer and director
of Dasavatharam want to avoid such
hassles. Hence, these elaborate precautions.
Precautions apart, on the technical
front, the movie is set to create
news again. The scene of 100 tuskers
will be shot by 25 cameras, huge by
any standards. The scene alone will
reportedly cost a whopping Rs. 8 crores.
The scene will last just a span of
3 minutes. Why would a producer want
to spend so much on a scene of 3 minutes?
We must remember that the producer
is Oscar Ravichandran who spent all
that money on Anniyan. The other reason
is that Kamal and K.S.Ravikumar are
a reliable combination. Also the crew
of the film feels that the addition
of such a film is certain to raise
the value of the film and pull audiences
to the theatres. |

Producer
Oscar Ravichandran, known for
his trademark ‘Brahmaandam’
is doing it again. One is already
getting impatient to see this
scene on screen. The biggest
bonus in this scene is of course
that Kamal will make his appearance.
These are only the intro details
of one of the characters of
a movie in which Kamal plays
10 characters. Just imagine,
9 other intros. It cannot get
bigger than this. In terms of
characters played, sets created,
elephants used or money spent.
Dasavatharam is sure to rock. |

| We
wish the crew all success and are all
eyes to catch a glimpse of the movie
– but photo shoots first, what
say? |
|
| Karate
fighter, dwarf, scientist, Bin Laden
look alike, black man, business man…. |

Viewers
can have a sneak preview of Kamal’s
Dasavatharam in our gallery. From
the stills that are released, Kamal
as a Brahmin stands out. The other
avatharams are a Karate fighter, a
dwarf ( a la Aboorva Sagotharargal),
an intelligent scientist, a hefty
man, ‘Bin Laden’ get up,
a black man, business man, an ordinary
simple man ‘the boy next door’
and a robber. We are sure that this
would be an absolute visual treat
for all of Kamal’s fans. Enjoy
viewing…. |
