As Mani sir is sitting comfortable cool and relaxed that's fine not a problem....then see GVM sir sitting on the edge of the chair paying respect to the great legend.. .oh man that is too awesome.... This is how we learn to respect the legends.....
As a non-tamilian When i saw this video in my recommendation while i was clicking on it I prayed their conversation to be in english. Glad that it was in english. 2 real genius's
People here who are complaining about speaking in English, but people forget that Mani Ratnam and Gautham Menon have lot of multi language fans. Plus there are countless Tamil interviewers in our industry, why can't we promote a few English interviews. It gives a new perspective of people and their thoughts.
I'm a Telugu guy. If this a Tamil interview. I may not be able to see even 1 min. This is for us who doesn't know Tamil. Thanks to the both legends for sharing their views on cinema
I am a Tamil guy, yet don't mind English in this case but just one thing.. the title is a Tamil word which is confusing for non-Tamil guys to miss the whole thing...
It's like Arjuna listening to the Gita from Krishna knowing that Krishna is indeed God himself. Its incredible how naturally humble GVM is putting Mr Ratnam on a pedestal.
57:53 that music with his immense respect to his guru makes me emotional watching my guru GVM,is pure delight and a true fan boy moment. Once and always a #gvmfan! 💙
Manirathnam`s flow of conversation is really beautiful and uninterrupted ... it kept me watching without fast-forwarding.. Another thing which should be noticed is Gouwtham`s immense respect to his senior Manirathnam..! Thank you for organizing this talk.
I lived vicariously through Gautham on this one! I appreciate his earnest demeanour and the child like awe he had in meeting his inspiration. Mani sir was his usual genuine self. This was a pleasure to watch, loved it!
Guys chill. Since the interview is in English - As a North Indian I can have the privilege of watching this interview. English is just a language. Tamil is a great language but lets not get too obsessed that only Tamil must be spoken.
As a North Indian you might be having the privilege of watching this interview but we are so proud that both person in that interview is "Tamilan". So its not about obsession we are Tamilan we love every language for the matter of fact, But don't push us to learn things, we are good enough if its required we will learn it by ourself......
Cinematography is a craft..cinema is very much of Director's views... putting together skills of various departments like music,dance,fights...so on... Coming together Director intrigrate everything available on the table... "saying that he has to support the egos...as I said EGO of various people " he has balance with creation with no boundaries.. & need to accept the sacrifices of every one... element of humble is part of the PACKAGE.
THIS surely is intense and kinda makes me realize that I am actually listening to what actually Gautham TALKS whilst just asking questions..in awe, indeed!
@WiseYetVile Lal Sir might be mediocre for you, but for people who truly know what acting is, realistic, natural, and dramatic, Lal Sir is the best. But I can see your confusion since you've only been exposed to loud acting, and not real acting.
Loved the way Mani sir opened up about the nuances in film-making that he experienced. With the right questions in mind about getting to know the legendary director, GVM made it! Except for a better title, let us all learn to appreciate and not take stress on the language criteria as it would only make the reach higher!
@38:50 Man Ratnam: You may be surprised there so much of nastiness inside you.. when you write it. GVM: Smiling (என்கிட்டவேவா.. ) That smile is priceless. He has created some amazing antagonists.
A brilliant chat.. well thought-out and chartered by Gautham! It brings out the various thought processes and nuances from a master professional, well done Gautham Vasudev Menon!! It is so soul refreshing to chat or listen to people who push the limits in their domain, always aiming excellence. Many thanks for putting this out... it is indeed a rare piece of a rare professional!
Convo between great master and a perfect student., I think here language doesn't speaks., seeing them means those two legends together is great pleasure for us., and you men are my day to day inspiration 🙏
Heavenly feel... Complete package of classic... My most fav 2 directors.. they both r the reason to choose filmmaking as my passion and profession... Love u sirs....
I haven't yet watched it... But I know it will b one of the best interviews I will b watching in my life... 2 people who have inspired me to love... I don't know how many times I m going to watch this.. Thank u GVM sir...
32:55 Gowtham "I have seen you at the place where Sriram sings. I started coming there only after I got that you are there. And whenever your songs pay, I have seen smile on your face". True fanboy moment. How much a true fan, follower would admire not only his idol's work but the person as a whole as well.
I am surprised at myself that I had not seen this. Two great guys and a candid conversation. Illuminating. As a physician, all I can think of is precision in thinking that reverberated in Mani. My best wishes to both of them. Now with more time back in India, I am going to make sure that I watch every piece of work by the both of them.
This is Gold!😍!.. You two gentlemen should sit together for a project for sure. Thank you GVM & Ondraga Entertainment. Hope, you guys do more often like this type of interviews with different personalities.
It was pleasure and just awesome to see two legends coming together over an interesting talk. Simple and genuine. Thank you Goutham Sir for a thoughtful, sensible and candid conversation. Loved it.
Very good conversation. Very poised and enjoyed thoroughly! Maniratnam always comes across as a very humble personality and the years of experience shows his calm and composed attitude. Equal credits should be given to his team also as he is the best only because he works with the best!
i dont understand y people r arguing over the language, while what is being conveyed in the dialogue is amazing and truly inspirational. Being a huge fan of both these amazing directors, it was truly excited to watch them together. It not always necessary that we should take things from them and apply it to only film industry, theres so much u can take in life. Hope ppl see the BIGGER PICTURE rather than confine themselves to the arguments on their mode of communication. THIS IS WORTH SHARING, sad that not many have shared this and but pls do...Peace out V :)
My first and second favorite Directors, exchanging thoughts! GVM asking all the questions I wanted to ask the King of Film making! This is awesome. I feel like I am living my life to the fullest. Thanking both of you for inspiring so much. #Ondraga Entertainment
Gautham Sir , You stole the show. Great body language, it's a pleasure to watch you speaking. Your hands were equally expressive like your eyes. It's so beautiful to watch. For example , when you were discussing about writing , you were literally writing on the air while saying "writing" .. Chance ah Ille ..! Your question choices were perfect. They were technical enough yet simple to understand for non-media person like me. Mani Sir's explanation to your questions were simply superb. I didn't get bored with an hour of watching this interview..best thing I liked is smoothness of your speech , rightly paced conversation without shouting from rooftop. Sometimes your questions were conversational and lengthy. On those occasions , it is good to restate the question when you finish so that it gives clarity for viewers on what is been asked. Your shoulders were little loose. Sometimes you need that for casual look but ,too loose makes it little sloppy.. Probably sitting upright and then relaxing the shoulder may help I think .. :) and innum ore ore point :) .."and stuff like that " eh filler ah adikadi use pannreenge . Please just be aware of that. Overall it's a great work . way to go ..!
Wow thats amazing..... Two legendary directors made this evening more magical.... Mani ratanam Sir was ready to share his experiences with enthusiasm and gautham sir was more conscious to get knowledge from him. Superb conversation..... One request to gautham please say about ur new music director buzz... And he is good talented product for GVM output 😃😃😄
First of all thanks to GVM sir. I was waiting for this so long, even I dreamt of this before. I liked the way u people make movies. I never had any second thought before buying a ticket because I trust you people and simply sit and watch. U both are fantastic. I am expecting more movies good or bad, slow or fast I will sit and watch. Even my friends says to others don't ask review about GVM or mani sir movies to raj he will confuse u more then GVM and mani sir.
Watching this again in 2020... My quarantine days watching this gentleman movies in a daily basis one by one... Love you maniratnam sir and gvm Anna! Lots of love for this two respected gentleman's... Seeing them in real is a wish for me.
Accidentally I found this interview after watching this I felt very nice especially GVM looks and you he way he asked questions and the way he gives respect to mani ratnam I just do like wow
Such an amazing interaction from 2 most amazing filmmakers. brilliant interview, so must of respect shown for each other, acknowledging each other for every word & gesture is such wonderful moment to watch. feel like watching Nayagan, Thalapathy, Mounnaragam in fact all the 80's movie all over again. thank you both for amazing feeling.
A must see conversation for budding filmmakers. "Desire to excel", "Happy accidents" - superb! It is nice to know about the working style of Mani ratnam & Goutham menon.
Nice Conversation....!! surprised to see both REAL film making directors together sharing thier experience. hats off to Mr. Gautham for making it happen.
So delightful to watch both of them talk.. The sitting posture of Gautam through out the interview shows the respect he has for Mani Ratnam. Very classy personalities who have taken films to another level. Subtitles could have been added in tamil for Tamil fans.
Goutham sir, Lokesh Kanagaraj said he inspired by your films. You are a different version of Manirathnam sir's film making. I use to see Mani sir's films for cinematography which is world-class always.
How beautifully they expressed the ideas and all we see in comment section was this language fight...Felt very bad.. Coz this interview is a big inspiration for future filmmakers and coz its in english it reached into more young aspiring filmakers.. ..
Randomly i got this interview.. literally i felt cool that i seen these both legends on interview. They are similar. But the way gvm sitting in the edge of the chair is really respectable these are all things that we learn from this legend. They are two who really sense the movie and potrait the such women characters admirable. ❤
Really great work by Gautam Sir, as this was one bold step to get along with Mani Ratnam sir, which is actually a great inspiring one, even I could say it actually triggers up the fire and giving more details to our own emotions and passion towards film making..! Two great passionate film makers at the same table and giving lot of inspiration and fueling the heat of getting something done to portray to this living world! Kudos to the team and Mani sir!!!
GVM you are a good interviewer - thanks for producing a nice conversation! This one clearly is for archives of Tamil cinema, with Madras peter and all :-)
அழகான தமிழ் பாடல்களும், வசனங்களும் இவர்களின் படங்களில் இருந்து தான் வருகிறது என்பதை மறந்து விட வேண்டாம். இங்கே ஆங்கிலம் பயன்படுத்தப்பட்டிருப்பது தமிழகம் தாண்டி உள்ள இவர்களது ரசிகர்களையும் கருத்தில் கொண்டே...
The David and Goliath of tamil industry ..and mani sir you just create a magical carpet while talking about your past and your point of views are just inspiring.
No wonder they both are genuine and genius.. one of the best interviews watched so far. Lot more to learn from these two. Respect..Inclusive....deliver..execution..and lot more. Stay blessed and lot more to expect from these two.
The way he narrated the final Kamal incident brought some new expressions and a genuine moment of forgetting he's in interview mode and pretend in front of camera. it's rare to see Mani ratnam on camera like that. Also his perspective in terms of observations is superb.
Brilliant interview Gautam and Mani sir. It's such a pleasure to see two great filmmakers on screen together indulging in such a keen yet simple interview...! Being an avid scriptwriter myself, it was very interesting to hear Mani sirs insights into scriptwriting and filmmaking. Gautam sir, I am your biggest fan! It's a dream to associate with you and hope it comes true one day.
I see 2 legend of tamil cinema. One i know before other. But actually hierarchy is different I got to know gautham before maniratnam . But maniratnam took me over and he is on to me. Legend that i came to know lately. See the conversation. One intellectual conversation worth watching 1 hour
Role model personality, Mani sir- makes all of us to live and flow humble and observing- just give that time, be patient, see that greatness could unleash from anyone- and Gautam sir in that last one minute of the interview bring tears- just from heart, how much Mani sir mean to him! It is not just film making I learnt..A life !🙏 Thank you!!
As Mani sir is sitting comfortable cool and relaxed that's fine not a problem....then see GVM sir sitting on the edge of the chair paying respect to the great legend.. .oh man that is too awesome.... This is how we learn to respect the legends.....
True 🥺❤🙏
He's nervous as he says... respect b!
As a non-tamilian When i saw this video in my recommendation while i was clicking on it I prayed their conversation to be in english. Glad that it was in english. 2 real genius's

I'm a Telugu guy. If this a Tamil interview. I may not be able to see even 1 min. This is for us who doesn't know Tamil. Thanks to the both legends for sharing their views on cinema
Right it's a opportunity
To know legendary thought process in about film making
I am a Tamil guy, yet don't mind English in this case but just one thing.. the title is a Tamil word which is confusing for non-Tamil guys to miss the whole thing...
Sammy it s a delight to listen to Gautam speak English...it is pristine, rich in vocabulary, addictive and poetic ..
The way GVM sits in front of Mani sir itself shows how much he respects him. #legends
Gautams Posture shows the respect he has for Mani sir..
Gautham can't hide his smile, he just adores Mani Sir.
Who wouldn't?
That's the sweetest thing ❤❤✨
I love How mani said "You tell me how you write"
OMG! 2 of my fav directors. This interview is so delightful and so much inspiration for any film maker to learn & pickup ideas! 🍷👍
GVM speaks a #paragraph,
MANI spends a #SENTENCE.
you speak 8 words
@@wolverineiscool7161but You spoke only 4🙃😂
That's how you speak if you are a fan boy..
It's not about how much you speak...it's about what you speak😄
Just a fan boy thing..
I've never seen mani ratnam talk so much!, for that kudos to gvm!, it's a talent u have actually
It's like Arjuna listening to the Gita from Krishna knowing that Krishna is indeed God himself. Its incredible how naturally humble GVM is putting Mr Ratnam on a pedestal.
Well said Reddy garu 👍
One of the coolest conversation
Mani ratnam looks cool ...classiness overloaded
True legend
who r all came to comment section... to knw wat ppl think of two classy directors!!!!!
shakthi Prabhu ,🖐️✌️
It’s classy !!
GVM sir is still has a child like enthusiasm while asking questions and clearing doubts... what a Man!👌
Two men because of whom class and romance prevails in Tamil Cinema
57:53 that music with his immense respect to his guru makes me emotional watching my guru GVM,is pure delight and a true fan boy moment. Once and always a #gvmfan! 💙
😃😃😃😍 Both Love Story Legends In One Frame Agree ?? 😊
Manirathnam is only legend
Thank god they have chosen to converse in English. Their movies are seen by almost entire southern part of India.
This one is epic.I always feel GVM has same style of making like Mani sir.Can feel the vibe when they speak😍.
Manirathnam`s flow of conversation is really beautiful and uninterrupted ... it kept me watching without fast-forwarding.. Another thing which should be noticed is Gouwtham`s immense respect to his senior Manirathnam..! Thank you for organizing this talk.
I lived vicariously through Gautham on this one! I appreciate his earnest demeanour and the child like awe he had in meeting his inspiration. Mani sir was his usual genuine self. This was a pleasure to watch, loved it!
This is one of those videos which you just wanted to sift through but end up watching fully . Can’t stop.
Guys chill. Since the interview is in English - As a North Indian I can have the privilege of watching this interview. English is just a language. Tamil is a great language but lets not get too obsessed that only Tamil must be spoken.
We tamil people don't see languages we see only talents
May be concept of the interview to reach all over the India regardless of diversity.
As a North Indian you might be having the privilege of watching this interview but we are so proud that both person in that interview is "Tamilan". So its not about obsession we are Tamilan we love every language for the matter of fact, But don't push us to learn things, we are good enough if its required we will learn it by ourself......
Just love this conversation between the 2 legends of our generations ..im sure tamil industry is very lucky to have them
Yes
I'm more invested in what the boy behind talking to the girl for almost one hour.
Jeez ,Their eyes are filled with passion.
Why are these guys so humble...
The guy is telling you how smart he is, but you think he is humble?
Otha podi
Cinematography is a craft..cinema is very much of Director's views... putting together skills of various departments like music,dance,fights...so on...
Coming together Director intrigrate everything available on the table... "saying that he has to support the egos...as I said EGO of various people " he has balance with creation with no boundaries.. & need to accept the sacrifices of every one... element of humble is part of the PACKAGE.
Because they are aware of their limitations
THIS surely is intense and kinda makes me realize that I am actually listening to what actually Gautham TALKS whilst just asking questions..in awe, indeed!
What do 2 Genius's talk when they meet ?
They talk about another genius " KAMALHAASAN "
Subeesh N.K True
You forgot another genius ' Mohanlal'
Bro you forgot to say about the best actor in the world mr mohanlal
@WiseYetVile Lal Sir might be mediocre for you, but for people who truly know what acting is, realistic, natural, and dramatic, Lal Sir is the best. But I can see your confusion since you've only been exposed to loud acting, and not real acting.
@WiseYetVile 🤣🤣🤣🤣 you just made my day man. Thanks ! 😂😂
Loved the way Mani sir opened up about the nuances in film-making that he experienced. With the right questions in mind about getting to know the legendary director, GVM made it!
Except for a better title, let us all learn to appreciate and not take stress on the language criteria as it would only make the reach higher!
Maniratnam places himself in the shadow part. Whereas Gowtham is facing the lights... I kinda like that..👍😊
Good observation
Anand, thats his nature too, we can see the same in his films as well, like scenes in black. Anyway your observation also simply super.

That smile is priceless. He has created some amazing antagonists.
🤣🤣
Yeah You are correct
The last sequence about Mohanlal and Kamal gave me goosebumps
🔥🔥🔥
Productive time I've spent watching this conversation. Mani Ratnam is a pride for Indian cinema
The best interview ever by Mani Sir. Thanks a lot GVM
First time watching a one hour RUclips video without skipping a second, master class interview both my favourite #Mani sir and #GVM
how can that guy behind the glass sit casually when two great filmmakers are having a convo?
#Guru Sethra he is simbu thats y sitting normally. lol
Guru Sethra I have a feeling they could be part of GVM's crew. Just to make things mundane.
+Rahul Dravid he could be MR X the mystery music composer for gvm's newfilm who knows lol
Guru Sethra wondering the same. who is he
Simbu!!! See he is keep shaking his hands!
A brilliant chat.. well thought-out and chartered by Gautham!
It brings out the various thought processes and nuances from a master professional, well done Gautham Vasudev Menon!!

Mother of coincidence.
this is the greatest interview tamil cinema fans have ever seen. thank you ondraga entertainment.
A must see conversation for budding filmmakers. "Desire to excel", "Happy accidents" - superb! It is nice to know about the working style of Mani ratnam & Goutham menon.
Wow, such insightful questions....Gautham was genuinely looking to learn and understand Mani sir and in the process so did we !!
Mind Blowing! There is a reason why we call people legends.
Nice Conversation....!! surprised to see both REAL film making directors together sharing thier experience. hats off to Mr. Gautham for making it happen.
So delightful to watch both of them talk.. The sitting posture of Gautam through out the interview shows the respect he has for Mani Ratnam. Very classy personalities who have taken films to another level.

Am I the only person sensing volume is too low r that excitement in me is louder than the vedio
Loved this...now I want see RGV and Maniratnam talking about each others films and their craft.
How beautifully they expressed the ideas and all we see in comment section was this language fight...Felt very bad.. Coz this interview is a big inspiration for future filmmakers and coz its in english it reached into more young aspiring filmakers.. ..
Guys its in English because non tamil people can understand as well, covering more audience worldwide.
Well said Stalin
ஏன்டா பாடுங்கலா உங்களுக்கு தமிழ் தெரியாதா எப்ப பாத்தாலும் இங்கிலிஷ் லேயே பேசுறீங்க....
wow !!! Somehow I naturally feel this conversation like teacher-student type ....☺☺
Randomly i got this interview.. literally i felt cool that i seen these both legends on interview. They are similar. But the way gvm sitting in the edge of the chair is really respectable these are all things that we learn from this legend. They are two who really sense the movie and potrait the such women characters admirable. ❤
Really great work by Gautam Sir, as this was one bold step to get along with Mani Ratnam sir, which is actually a great inspiring one, even I could say it actually triggers up the fire and giving more details to our own emotions and passion towards film making..! Two great passionate film makers at the same table and giving lot of inspiration and fueling the heat of getting something done to portray to this living world! Kudos to the team and Mani sir!!!
what a superb interview... very emotional last part of speech by GVM.. it jus reflected in Maniratnam's face... truly the best interview..
GVM you are a good interviewer - thanks for producing a nice conversation! This one clearly is for archives of Tamil cinema, with Madras peter and all :-)
அழகான தமிழ் பாடல்களும், வசனங்களும் இவர்களின் படங்களில் இருந்து தான் வருகிறது என்பதை மறந்து விட வேண்டாம். இங்கே ஆங்கிலம் பயன்படுத்தப்பட்டிருப்பது தமிழகம் தாண்டி உள்ள இவர்களது ரசிகர்களையும் கருத்தில் கொண்டே...
both of them have a pan India appeal and also they have fans all over the world and that justifies their conversation in English!
The David and Goliath of tamil industry ..and mani sir you just create a magical carpet while talking about your past and your point of views are just inspiring.
Thanks Gautam for this wonderful interview....2 of my most favourite directors in one screen...rare interview. Will watch it again...
I'm a telugu guy and I love mani sir gautam sir 💕💕
No wonder they both are genuine and genius.. one of the best interviews watched so far. Lot more to learn from these two. Respect..Inclusive....deliver..execution..and lot more. Stay blessed and lot more to expect from these two.
It's a fan boy interviewing his idol.
The way he narrated the final Kamal incident brought some new expressions and a genuine moment of forgetting he's in interview mode and pretend in front of camera. it's rare to see Mani ratnam on camera like that. Also his perspective in terms of observations is superb.
Brilliant interview Gautam and Mani sir. It's such a pleasure to see two great filmmakers on screen together indulging in such a keen yet simple interview...! Being an avid scriptwriter myself, it was very interesting to hear Mani sirs insights into scriptwriting and filmmaking. Gautam sir, I am your biggest fan! It's a dream to associate with you and hope it comes true one day.
I am from Bangalore... been huge fan of both of these 2 directors... to see them on one screen is just amazing...
Wish we had another Kamal Haasan Maniratnam combo Indias best actor should collaborate again with India's best Director
Communicating with English is one of his identity..... Wow GVM .... It's an interesting voice! It's sounds soo great to me...God bless u sir....
Trust me Gautam, this is your best work till now :p
I think even Gautam doesn't disagree 😂. But yh, he has also done well though.
I see 2 legend of tamil cinema. One i know before other. But actually hierarchy is different
I got to know gautham before maniratnam . But maniratnam took me over and he is on to me. Legend that i came to know lately. See the conversation. One intellectual conversation worth watching 1 hour
thanx a lot for making this interview in english.... will surely help a lot of aspirants
Role model personality, Mani sir- makes all of us to live and flow humble and observing- just give that time, be patient, see that greatness could unleash from anyone- and Gautam sir in that last one minute of the interview bring tears- just from heart, how much Mani sir mean to him! It is not just film making I learnt..A life !🙏 Thank you!!
My all time favourite directors in my lifetime 😘😍 GVM sir and Maniratnam sir
The way GVM shows respect to Mani Sir with his body language makes me respect GVM much more. Its like a teacher-student conversation.
Gvm is classy gentleman, my fav movies are from these two legends
