The interval scene when Dada meets Mahaan for the first time would have been simply phenomenal to watch at the theatres. The cinematography, colour palette, staging, music and dance were all on point!
@@iamironman6300 I never said Pushpa was good either, lol. First of all, how did you compare Pushpa with this 🤣. Pushpa was bullshit and this film wasn't good. So get it. I don't like both 👀
Ever since Master and the Deep Focus interview with Lokesh, this series of interviews has been something I always look forward to after watching a Tamil film!
Thoroughly enjoyed the movie. Vikram is just out of the world. His recent movie choices were not upto the mark but this was his best commercial movie performance post Annyan I feel.
Glad that he never compromised anything in terms of the character development of “Mahaan”. The shaping up of his character, and his ascent from being a person who is shoved with ideologies - to becoming the one who creates his own empire was highly compelling. This is the kind of craftsmanship that I’m expecting from KS in his future projects.
There are four main cards in a pack ..king, queen ,ace ,joker. When joker comes into hand you always wants to hold the joker no matter which card you have to drop. Joker is Dhruv in this film. Quite a emotional drama between playing cards.
a portion/scene which i really liked is the parallel to Gandhi's dream and the scene where he kills Sathyavan. Both scenes-he does the same style of gun slinging, he lives heroically in his dream and feels happy, but in reality he is trapped in a life and aches for such a "cool" life. But when he kills Sathyavan...he does do the same gun slinging, but he is alone. He doesn't even have a single individual he can trust; He is broken and alone, despite having it all he wanted-the money and the power.
None of this was conveyed or filmed effectively in the movie. Probably if you want to read too much into the movie so you can have something 'intellectual' to say about it, then makes sense.
But naduvula payan vanthathukaga, vikram avan best frnd (yaara kooda sendhu business panlam nu nenachona , frnd vendam nu solliyum business kulla izhuthu) payan vandga udane kondruvana?
One of the best movies of Karthik Subbaraj. Exceptional story teller... His style has its own identity and because of that he has a great future. Sort of comeback for Vikram.. He is a great actor but at times tries to do some no brainer masala movies and fails to do justice to his talent. Just like Suriya, who did some great work in Soorarai Pottru and Jai Bhim, Vikram should concentrate or encourage young directors to come up with such projects.. Dhruv: Oh man.. what a young talent.. If this had been his first movie, it might have taken his career to the next level.. It was such an enjoyable experience
Mahaan is a film to remember for me. I loved it so much. It is deep and quite underappreciated by the audience. I hope Mahaan gets all the love and appreciation it deserves someday. I like the whole thought process of KS behind Mahaan. Expecting many such beautiful stories from KS.
Karthik Subbaraj should consider writing full fledged 16 hour dramas like Korean and Chinese do. He has lot of thoughts and content but struggle to compress it down for 3 hour movie. Give him freedom to write and explore more with dramas. Hopefully Netflix or someone will give him such opportunity.
Someone made a series called breaking bad , and Karthik subburaj renamed it as mahaan and is being lauded for his effort by you jokers 😂😂😂, woah , till the time , people like you exists , plagiarism will never end
@@annemoni1 I did watch parts of Breaking bad. While I agree many Tamil directors does get influenced from Hollywood content ( or copy for Hollywood like you say ), it’s good that someone deliver promising content. I mean, It is better to copy and try to progress than waiting for an innovative idea and stay stagnant down there. Two decades back China released Rokia ( copy of Nokia phone ), Zony ( copy of Sony) phone. We Indians were busy degrading them as copy and making fun of their quality while we did nothing. Today they are experienced and able to produce products which compete shoulder to shoulder with US. So let’s not degrade and pull down the people who are contributing something for the better tomorrow 😅. Cheers.
@@Raja-mc3zt you should be ashamed to even support an idea like this , what shakes me about the guys like you and KS is that , despite everyone calling you guys out that you have copied the script , you shamelessly won’t we. give the Due credits to the original writer . Man no wonder you like him .
@@annemoni1 You can keep yelling at me and others like that. As long as the deed doesn’t affect the life of others, I don’t think it is something that condemnable. When Tamil movie market share gets global, the movies of inspiration and copy will be reduced since other country movie makers will start to sue us. Until then, they themselves know that these small budget movie makers aren’t a threat. So you can watch it if you like, else you shall leave them rather than trying to preach your text book principles which doesn’t suit real life. Thanks.
Thank you Karthik for bringing out the best from Chiyaan Vikram 🙏 It was so delightful to see him doing a character effortlessly without having any fancy dress gimmicks almost after a decade.Gandhi Mahaan is one of Chiyaan's best performances till date 💯 Like Gandhi Mahaan , I felt Sathyavan is the best from Bobby Simha after Jigarthanda. It was top notch from him💥 Dhruv Vikram is definitely going to be the next big thing in Tamil cinema.He is a pure star material 🔥 I really loved the film even though it has its own flaws❤️ Mahaan is undoubtedly the best Karthik Subbaraj padam after Iraivi 💯
I am from Andhra Pradesh...Absolutely loved the movie. Vikram and Dhruv are both too good. Best performance of Vikram after anniyan. Kudos to u man Karthik subbaraj. What a script..
Mahaan is more of a parenting guide, which also speaks about herd mentality when it comes to ideology, which unfolds amidst a gambling saga. Complex, yet simple!
Don't care what people say I've seen Indian tarentino with his own mind and own voice he made impact like Tarentino on me and others like me. This guy will be huge in tamil cinima world.
Some scenes in mahaan were exceptionally staged. And they were just mind blowing: 1. Vikram's first fight scene... The way it was shot was just phenomenol... That shaky hand held camera shots.... Single take attempt... These experiments worked out so beautifully and made that fight even more appealing.. 2. The conversation between Rocky, dada, Vikram characters.... In every crucial points during that sequence, a train moves outside and the color changes... The camera get shakes... So inventive scene... 3. That light flickering shot during conversation between sananth and Vikram in a street... 4. The last conversation between Bobby simha and Vikram was shot so intensely..
Very intense movie which is not easy to present. Karthik brings his sheer talent as usual with his story telling! As someone said in the comments, he should do Netflix kind of series, which will not constraint him to 2.5 hours.
After a very long time..we were able to witness the most wackiest chiyaan in mahaan..Despite some obvious flaws, chiyaan's performance carried the whole movie throughout..💥
@@jayantmalik3192 bro..pls grow up lah bro..nobody uses SIR behind nick names..what do you expect the fans to call their idols..thalapathy SIR, thala SIR, thalaivar SIR?

There is a 10cm x 10cm book called Quotable Quotes of Gandhiji by Bhavan's Gandhi Centre of Science and Human Values. It costs Rs.24. it is available in Chennai airport. I think Karthick Subburaj got it there when he went there to pass time before boarding one of his flights
When i watched Mahaan, although i didn't enjoy it much, all I could think of is how beyond brilliant it would be to watch this movie in the theatre. After watching this interview, I like the movie way more than I liked it while watching it. The way Karthik Subbaraj's thought process works, is truly fascinating to me. Thanks for this interview, FC!
The movie was fantastic, your style of direction was really impressive. Vikram has proved again what a great actress he is. All the actors proved their best but the surprise was dhruv's acting.
Really enjoyed an interview after lots of time, like karthik mentioned thilagu scene was my favorite man chiyaan was just superb, very happy watching chiyaan in a movie which can be celebrated after a long time, hope chiyaan scores back and impresses more with his ranjith movie, huge expectations on it excited abt it
#Mahaan purely loved every bit of the scenes but missed in big screens #ChiyaanVikram 🔥🔥🔥 #DhruvVikram 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥 & all supporting characters just wow 🤩 A KS padam 💪🏻💪🏻💪🏻
This Deep Focus series of interviews is something I really look forward to after watching any film these days. It really helps to elevate the film appreciation level, at least for me. The movie, Mahaan in this case, worked for me in parts and most of the questions BR had asked here had either crossed my mind while watching the film or had helped me notice certain aspects which I had missed initially. You may like the film or not, but the way Karthik Subburaj explains his writing and thought process, you cannot ignore the fact he is a writer-director with clarity and clear cut idea of what he is doing. I found the film far better that JT and Petta.
From this conversation and watching the movie twice, I guess we can compare the character arc of Gandhi Mahaan to that of Walter white of breaking bad, very similar.
People say Tamil audience has changed, but see the difference in views for Deep Focus with Franklin Jacob(Writer) and Karthik(Mahaan). That one is one step better than this. But very few people agree.
I love this series... It kinda take us deep into the world of film making and it's pretty interesting....I watched master,sarpetta,maanadu deep focus and all were amazing. Keep going!
Best movie in 2022 but too underrated loved each and every sequence in this movie u nailed it ksubburaj Anna Ksubburaj&Sana combo lit make Goosebumps u keep remains combined until your last movie thank you for presenting these kind of masterpiece to us love Karthik subburaj Anna expects more from you and chiyaan,dhruv sir performance astoning best rivarly in kollywood
Initial quote "Freedom is not worth having if it does not include the freedom to make mistakes" BR view : I thought you have started writing after reading this quote. Blue Sattai Maaran : ippadi oru kadhaiyai elithi vidom, yaaru mela paliyai poda. Seri Gandhi kanakilae poduvom. Now KS admit it. 😂
Bro... This movie is a journey and ambition of 2 parallel characters bro.. They both have different motive and desire . So the length of the movie might have impacted.. If you follow the characters closely, you won't feel bored... And I'm pretty sure whoever saying this film is boring and lengthy, will be celebrating this movie in 5-10 years of time.. In line of Puthupettai, Hey Ram, Ravanan and Aayirathil Oruvan !!!
@@mkboy38 I kinda agree with this one. Keeping it short and crisp wouldn’t have made this journey impactful, because the story revolves around two predominantly built characters with their own vision. Mahaan revels in success; Dada built himself so ruthlessly to avenge his own father for their sufferance. The second part of the film had more of emotions than the first part, so the length got really justified at some point.
Plot is similar to IRISHMEN....just nativity and Indian emotions added...but overall it hooked me to the screen for almost 2:30 mins and remaining 17 mins was okay
I assumed the coincidental meeting of Sathyavan and Jnaanam was again an allusion to the card games. Like when you play rummy, and your hand is going ok but nothing great, and then you get a card from the deck in your turn, and it may have the chance to change the odds for you, suddenly you go on a winning path. That happens by chance, and same as the meeting of characters here at the opportune but unexpected moment
Some Directors out there Cast DRUV Vs ARJUN DAS Enjoyed Mahan Chiyaan's performance 👌 Dhruv - Macho Man When he was in Police Uniform looked the young version of Aaruchaamy Wish he could choose nice scripts Karthik Scorcese Subburaj Tarantino 👌😊
After seeing this, Its seems like some of script interpreted in different way by me than its original idea...I enjoyed the movie and this reasoning session..but climax sip by Dada still I can't convince to take karthicks angle
I loved the the Movie.. Oru All time Cult Masterpiece ah vandhirukka vendiya padam… just miss aana mari irundhchu! Second half could hv been better nu thonuchu.. Particularly in Climax, When Gandhi manipulates Dada.. Adhu varaikum Sema intense ah Oru floor la poyittu suddenly oru change aana mari irundchu.. Better ending irundhirukalam.. Rocky and Sathya ku endha vidha justice um illaama irundhadhu mari thonuchu.. Gandhi sathya va suttadhuku reason eh..Dada tha.. Kadaisila Dada va ye jail ku anupurar.. So edhukaaha sathya saahanum! Gaandhi betrayed his close friend.. Gandhi doesn’t deserve a positive ending.. I was thinking Climax la Naachi pathi thittuvaan Gaandhi.. So Gaandhi avanoda guilt ku aaha avala kidnap pannenu Solli avan pullaya kaduppethi.. avan kaiyaalaye Gaandhi ya kolradhu maari pannirundhaa… Gaandhi sethiruppaan.. than Appaava thavarudhalaa konnuttome nu Guilt la ye Dada vaazhdiruppaan.. So idhu better ending ah irundhirukkalaam…
🤦🏽♂️he saves his son then only he knows it was all planned by his son and he know that his son is more evil so he plans to send him to jail ithu kudava therila and also like a tribute he does that gandhi and sathya remains as person who has uplifted liquor ban
@@capjacksparow3014 he knows that his motive is to kill all of his friends but he doesnt know that gnanam kidnapped dada was his plan and he thinks that it was real
Having narrated a movie with layers of philosophy in it, Karthik still makes the protagonist win, irrespective of the wrongdoings from his side. I expected something like the way the lead was treated in Drishyam-2, where he technically wins but could not cherish it with his life. Here, however, Gandhi happily narrates his cunning plot to Dada and says selfishly that he cares about people calling him Mahaan and nothing else! This is something that irked me a bit, which I could not close as cinematic liberty.
But the only difference is that in Dhrishyam 2: the protagonist proved his mettle by going to any extent in order to protect his family, which is right regardless of what others think. It has a valid reason. However, in Mahaan, Vikram never committed any mistakes or wrongdoings for the sake of his pride. All he wanted was to live a life on his own terms. He indulged in hedonism. Even in the beautifully written climax, we can tangibly feel that Vikram is not guilty but rather complacent about his journey. Meanwhile, Dada is a maniac who was pathetically selfish and he ends up being a loser. That practically makes sense.
The interval scene when Dada meets Mahaan for the first time would have been simply phenomenal to watch at the theatres. The cinematography, colour palette, staging, music and dance were all on point!
Who all loved Mahaan and wanted a theatre experience?
Me
Nope it sucks

I liked the idea of the movie and movie to. But the screenplay could have been written more meticulously and beautifully.
Should have talked about music also
SANA is 🔥🔥🔥
After seeing this, Its seems like some of script interpreted in different way by me than its original idea...I enjoyed the movie and this reasoning session..but climax sip by Dada still I can't convince to take karthicks angle
BR and his interest in Christianity . Gets super excited when he finds some connect . Even in nenjam marappathillai with selva he got excited.
Why have you stopped uploading the english subtitles? Please add them, sir.
I loved the the Movie..
Oru All time Cult Masterpiece ah vandhirukka vendiya padam… just miss aana mari irundhchu!
Second half could hv been better nu thonuchu..
Particularly in Climax, When Gandhi manipulates Dada..
Adhu varaikum Sema intense ah Oru floor la poyittu suddenly oru change aana mari irundchu..
Better ending irundhirukalam..
Rocky and Sathya ku endha vidha justice um illaama irundhadhu mari thonuchu..
Gandhi sathya va suttadhuku reason eh..Dada tha..
Kadaisila Dada va ye jail ku anupurar.. So edhukaaha sathya saahanum!
Gaandhi betrayed his close friend.. Gandhi doesn’t deserve a positive ending..
I was thinking Climax la Naachi pathi thittuvaan Gaandhi.. So Gaandhi avanoda guilt ku aaha
avala kidnap pannenu Solli avan pullaya kaduppethi.. avan kaiyaalaye Gaandhi ya kolradhu maari pannirundhaa… Gaandhi sethiruppaan..
than Appaava thavarudhalaa konnuttome nu Guilt la ye Dada vaazhdiruppaan.. So idhu better ending ah irundhirukkalaam…
🤦🏽♂️he saves his son then only he knows it was all planned by his son and he know that his son is more evil so he plans to send him to jail ithu kudava therila and also like a tribute he does that gandhi and sathya remains as person who has uplifted liquor ban
@@keshavop9318 Rocky ya pottu thallum pothe… Gandhi ku theriyaatha avan pullayoda motive enna nu.. enna ya pesura?
@@capjacksparow3014 he knows that his motive is to kill all of his friends but he doesnt know that gnanam kidnapped dada was his plan and he thinks that it was real
I had a nice time watching this interview :)
Good movie excellent performance by everyone.
Having narrated a movie with layers of philosophy in it, Karthik still makes the protagonist win, irrespective of the wrongdoings from his side. I expected something like the way the lead was treated in Drishyam-2, where he technically wins but could not cherish it with his life. Here, however, Gandhi happily narrates his cunning plot to Dada and says selfishly that he cares about people calling him Mahaan and nothing else! This is something that irked me a bit, which I could not close as cinematic liberty.
You are one step short of becoming dada. Come on, no one is perfect.
But the only difference is that in Dhrishyam 2: the protagonist proved his mettle by going to any extent in order to protect his family, which is right regardless of what others think. It has a valid reason. However, in Mahaan, Vikram never committed any mistakes or wrongdoings for the sake of his pride. All he wanted was to live a life on his own terms. He indulged in hedonism. Even in the beautifully written climax, we can tangibly feel that Vikram is not guilty but rather complacent about his journey. Meanwhile, Dada is a maniac who was pathetically selfish and he ends up being a loser. That practically makes sense.
