Shriram Devanathan that blew me too. Didn't see that coming, but it's true. Kamal in both films, acting as a guardian to women that are still strangers to him.
#Guna is one of The Epic Screenplay Shows The God Loving Man loves the God Girl The Screenplay The story Connect to the People The Writer Explanations Semma Super #KamalHassanEpicThroughHisActing Semma Super 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
Good to know, Bharadwaj.........Kamal Hassan - A gift to Tamil Cinema along the lines of Sivaji Ganesan (when it comes to "heroes", because there are several others in the supporting actors category like Nagesh, Manorama, Nassar etc.).....I wonder WHO ELSE could have pulled off a Guna or Mahanadhi / Salangai Oli / Anbe Sivam / Moondram Pirai / Thevar Magan / Unnal Mudiyum Thambi / Chaplin role in Punnagai Mannan to name a few of his GEMS. No one else comes to my mind.
I first listened to the dialogue that precedes the song "Unnai Naan Ariven" portrayed on Rekha & Kamal, on the cassette. I was STUNNED by the emotions he could deliver just by uttering them (without any visuals). When I watched the movie later, I thought he deserved EVERY BIT of accolade he got and he deserved more. IR MUSIC gives the movie yet another unimaginable dimension.
Few days back watched Guna after very long time, couldn't come out of it till now. Very well written movie n the the wonderful dialogues.. loved the heroine n the shortlived cute romance between the lead.
Totally enjoyed this tête-à-tête! The passion in Edathattil’s eyes are infectious! And the structure and flow of the interview was flawless and impeccable! 28 min well spent for me!
Its an unbelievable movie.. kamal sir acting is just omg..ilayaraaja sir just lifted the feel of the movie to next level.. i loved heroine roshini acting in the movie
I still remember I was restless after watching the movie in a theatre called Ashoka in Bangalore, it had a long lasting impact , And now when it is analyzing with its screen writer, A great tribute
Excellent interview. Though the RUclips algorithm perhaps suggested this on the back of Manjummel Boys, Sab John's explanation of Guna screenplay and the development of characters is outstanding
Thank you so much BR and FC south for this amazingly brilliant interview....I was always waiting to listen something about the making of Guna from thalaivar kamal and his team which till now has not come up until you brought this up .... thank you so much again !!!!! Please capture such interviews on Thevar Magan,Sathya, Mahanadhi, Virumandi, Apoorva Sagothargal ...need some interviews from Singeetham Sineevasa rao sir, Santhana bharathi sir, P C Sreeram sir, K Vishwanath ji, Suresh Krissna Sir etc !!!!! Brillaint screenwriter John Sir... !!!! Please make use of these geniuses and allow them to work at what they are best at !!!!! and Rosy as a sister in Guna just blew me away...I was guessing like BR as someone who wants to marry Guna and has a soft corner for him !!!
So many years after I watched the movie, the sparrow motif has been my reference to the film. I was worried BR was not going to get to it. Thank you. An amazing new series. Hoping for more such insightful episodes.
Yes. Rohini's fear mirroring the sparrow's when they enter the house. The way Guna responds with fox calls and talks to sparrow showed, as John Edathattil explains, that he could communicate with the animals while others felt strange. Also, another small reference was in the cave where Rohini draws a parallel to them being in a cave to a couple of bees inside a Lotus.
Saw the film again after many years. It was a near perfect film.Amazing writing. BR Sir, where is the actress Roshni now ? It's such a pity that she gave a sterling performance and was not seen in any other films after that
She acted in a Tamil film and few Telugu films which were only bad films and didn't extract the best from the actress. May be Abhirami is just enough, at least to me.
Wow excellent interview. Thoughtful questions bringing out exactly what was in the mind of the script writer. It would be hard to pick films from tamil cinema that had such deep characterization , subliminal motifs and larger themes than just where the story is set in.am waiting to see what movie u select next to go in depth.
Nice film the aesthetic illusion love between guna and roshini Abirami... A beautiful story that makes us realize that someone is there for us to love ourselves
they forgot or hide abhirami bhattar's real story from which the character of Guna was created. Abhirami bhattar says today is pournami to the abhirami Devi temple priest... ! It's a real awesome story very few knows.
Guna ......*Goosebumps* 🙏🙏🙏🙏 but still keep avoiding from seeing.....too heavy stuffffff 😭😭 true Ji. A love story of those times won't workout this day of so called internet love with breakups like way of the World! The true love of those days I would say is avoided on purpose this day for ...... *The attached **#painful* 😓😪kids face enough pain in reality even b4 falling into a relationship at home itself with internet impact and so they no more want more pain from true love. That's the fact!
I really wanted to watch the writers perspective of guna movie which I watch after seeing mannum mel boys. I am impressed by the story and his writing.
Guna story inspire by abirami anthathi, writer Balakumaran said that his question and answer section in his pocket novel. Guna was not commercial success that time. But the same theme use kathal konden by the same writer. Balakumaran use the abirami anthathi theme in many of his novels..
Mr. John was reluctant in giving credits to Kamalhasan for improvising the script. BR had to ask the question twice but somehow managed to evade or dilute the context. Well played
@@yaaro4471Acting in guna wouldn't have been actually fun for her. Shooting in the cave n lying on the shoulders of kamal in half of the movie wud hv been strenuous job for her 😅😅
I love this movie but I have a question in the story.. when abirami let guna fall from the cliff, SK comes there along with janagaraj. Why does SK wanted to get her signature there in blank paper..so far SK has been a good guardian for roshini..what is the need for SK to show his true color at that time?
He wanted to get sign, so that he can kill her n take away her property since her father also not alive.. Since guna had kidnapped her, that blame will come on him.
I think am the only one who is worried about the heroine of the movie Roshini she acted really well .Even there is wrong information about her in google why didn't she get a chance 😰😬 where is she right now?
Abirami Battar claims that today is Pournami when it is not, because Goddess Abirami said so in the original story. Then the Goddess herself throws her nose ring to the dark sky and shines like a full moon, to honor his devotion. That scene in Guna refers to this in my opinion.. where Guna accepts that its Pournami because Abirami said so,
Literal translation is fool's paradise. Also, Its a patch of uninhabited evergreen forest near Kodaikanal. Its rumoured to make one lose his sane mind if he enters it, and wander like a fool.
Is there any actor in this world whose movie has been discussed liken this. Thank you Kamal Ji
@Chang Komara these two stupid comments I am seeing everywhere
Plz don't worry about the views! Keep the show running!This video will earn till youtube exists!
Gopinath Rajsekar Thank you. Yes. Views are important. But just letting that one aspect determine content is of no use.
Very well said
Super sir.
Baradwaj Rangan beautiful interview sir. I have watched this earlier. I m a big fan of KamalHaasan Sir. You made my day. Do continue your great work.
❤️🔥
It brings chills n tears when I watch that hospital scene from #Guna. Wonder how he pulled it off!
#GodOfActing
Wow! That bit where BR drew parallels between moondram pirai and guna. Just blew me away. Way to go BR!
Shriram Devanathan that blew me too. Didn't see that coming, but it's true. Kamal in both films, acting as a guardian to women that are still strangers to him.

Vigneshwar M P Wasn't it lovely how the sparrow motif connects to the other animal motifs in the film?

Best interview for screen writers.
Great interview
Very clear why they chose to work with each other. Wave lengths match and at the sa me time they have a mind of their own
best way to wish B'day to legend
Sab John sir, an artistic soul!

Kindly teach more about screen writing by interviewing various writers
John Edathattil played a role in Kuruthi Punal?
Absolutely loved this interview and just like u, I remember having a somewhat different take on the Rekha Kamal equation 🤔 interesting 👍🏻
I really wanted to watch the writers perspective of guna movie which I watch after seeing mannum mel boys. I am impressed by the story and his writing.
descriptive and very informative
Where can I get Guna movie with English subtitles. My south Indian brothers, help please.

This guy john edayathil same one?
Super with a silver spoon touch
Super
missed questions on Chanakyan ,which is perhaps a better movie i must say
Kamal sir great man.
Quite an experience :)
Mr. John was reluctant in giving credits to Kamalhasan for improvising the script. BR had to ask the question twice but somehow managed to evade or dilute the context. Well played
Watching this video again in November 2024 🙂
Sab John you are the best
Guna super super super super super super super super super super super super super
No guilt..! I feel am in a edu session..! And why does this John Edathattil reminds me of Jack Nicholson? :D Too random eh?
Where is the heroine in guna movie??
Where is Roshini the actress of Guna Movie what happened to her why she left Cinema - Truth???
She is rich , she did it one film for fun
@@yaaro4471Acting in guna wouldn't have been actually fun for her. Shooting in the cave n lying on the shoulders of kamal in half of the movie wud hv been strenuous job for her 😅😅

He mentioned 'Cho' Ramaswamy. He is a real genius. His market study is amazing...
Please do one interview with jeyamohan about naan kadavul..
I think am the only one who is worried about the heroine of the movie Roshini she acted really well .Even there is wrong information about her in google why didn't she get a chance 😰😬 where is she right now?
Make an interview of Indian 1996 with shankar
This guy came in kuruthipunal
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
This interview aged well.

Namaste
What is the meaning of "Mathikettan Solai"?
Mathikettan means one who is insane and solai is forest like thing
@@caspianprince7529 And the location where it was shot is also of the same name.
Literal translation is fool's paradise. Also, Its a patch of uninhabited evergreen forest near Kodaikanal. Its rumoured to make one lose his sane mind if he enters it, and wander like a fool.
John sir is explaining patiently but BR is moving very fast and we are not able to absorb.
