| Today
is the day of reckoning. Today, we
know who will rule India for the next
five years (conditions apply- if a
stable coalition is formed). Pre and
post-poll analyses have pointed out
that the incumbents might be in one
more time. But, with volatility being
the trademark trait of politics and
each front needing at least 10 parties
or so to make up the numbers, the
process of forming a government might
provide far more twists and turns
than an average Kollywood potboiler
or an IPL humdinger. You might support
Manmohan Singh, Advani or even Mayawati
or Sharad Pawar. But, before you turn
your attention to the real politics,
look at some of the best movies that
have shown politics on reel. |

Ayya |
|
A routine Sarath Kumar double
act, one might think. But, Ayya
was a bit more than just that.
Of course, all the regular elements
were in place for a family entertainer
in the trademark Hari style. There
was also a fair bit of political
drama thrown in. It was not a
big canvas thing with struggle
for power and other such elements.
The turmoil was within the mind
of a man who kept wondering whether
he was eligible to represent his
people in the assembly. It was
quite different from the regular
political drama that we get in
our movies.
