NOT JUST MOHANLAL, ANOTHER LEGEND WAS ALSO OFFERED MANI RATNAM'S IRUVAR
Home > Tamil Movies > Tamil Cinema NewsIruvar is an immortal film directed by Mani Ratnam and supposed to be based on the lives of MG Ramachandran (played by Mohanlal) and M Karunanidhi (played by Prakash Raj), though the makers haven't officially accepted the same.
In an old post, during the demise of DMK Patriarch M Karunanidhi, Malayalam superstar Mammootty had recalled that he was offered the role of Karunanidhi. He had penned: An irreplaceable loss. And the end of a great era. Writer, Author, Screen Writer, Orator and one of the greatest leaders of our time. A revolutionary. But more than all of the many facets to his persona his love for tamizh and his people stand tallest. The opportunity I had to play him in Manis film is something I miss today. All of my meetings with him are fond memories discussing cinema, politics and literature. Deeply saddened by this loss. (sic)
Mammootty
An irreplaceable loss. And the end of a great era. Writer, Author, Screen Writer, Orator and one of the greatest leaders of our time. A revolutionary. But more than all of the many facets to his persona his love for tamizh and his people stand tallest.
