    Mahanadhi is a heavy movie. Kamal sir will make you break into tears in many scenes. Village portions were shot in Thirunageshwaram which is nearby Kumbakonam. I was studying 2nd std and I shook hands with Ulaganayagan on the film sets. It was a beautiful and a touching experience

    Mahanadhi is a MUSICAL! The BGMs are a part of the scenes. How does the word ILAYARAJA gets separated while talking about Guna / Mahanadhi / Paneer pushpangal / KKK / IO etc. ? ALL the 6 songs in Mahanadhi are great! 1. Thai pongal (The Pongal song that celeberates the soil, culture & its tradition while portraying how happy the family once was) 2. Peigala boodhama (Tuning such a terrific song for a very specific situation is ONLY possible by IR; Reminds me of ANOTHER great song in Moondram Pirai: Nari kadhai), 3. Ever-popular classic Sriranga ranga naadhanin 4. The gorgeous unfilmed duet "Solladha raagangal" 5. Tearjerkers - "Naan ganga", Thanmaanam AND Anbaana Thaayai. ruclips.net/video/moaZZqkVLF/видео.html ruclips.net/video/moaZZqkVLF/видео.html

    Your Mahanadhi and Guna films are ultimate. Your films have very good standard like Satyajitray and Maniratnam film.
