Agreed! But instead of only south industry celebrates directors like him, the whole Indian cinema should celebrate these kind of talents and encourage them to do more movies at par with international standards. Hope all goes well!
Always critics kept complaining that Kamal intervenes in the director’s work. Now here is a man who knows his job and was honest about his approach and Kamal has no hesitation to give him all the freedom and the output is terrific. Now critics maybe wondering what else to complain about the legend. Kudos to Lokesh to not fall into the trap of super stardom and Respect for Kamal to do this kind of script after all that he has achieved. True trend setter of Indian cinema
@@secaccnt9931 - None of the actors prefer a director without talent or liking the story. when it comes to kamal he himself is a good director he understands when the narrated story is not upto the mark.
True.Same thing happend in politics too.Accused him of both pro Bjp and pro dmk!Any how what ever his personal life he is a true legend of tamil/Indian cinema and good human being.
Director Shankar also said that Kamal didn't interfere at all during Indian shooting. GVM said Kamal didn't interfere during Vettaiyaadu vilayaadu. So it's all a myth. Maybe he gives suggestions when things go way off.
@@secaccnt9931 because just like life you don't always get the best. Sometimes you see mediocrity but know there is an opportunity to improve. For those directors, Kamal is the guru.
Hi baddy, please bring lokesh again for lights camera analysis of leo.we have plenty of questions to ask, i hope you will do that to get why so many open ends,why Mansoor ali khan had death penalty, the story which was articulated by the guy when trisha in search about leo...and lot more...why lokesh has purposely created so many open end???....any way i enjoyed the marvel movies way of post credit(simple way)... hope we get the answers for all those questions visually in his next lcu films..
Finally. The movie was a f-ing masterpiece. But some of us were slightly anticipating this interview more than the movie itself😅😅😅 Thanks, Rangan vaathiyaare and Loki na.
When was the last time we had a director explaining the nuances of a movie for 90 minutes. Happy with what Lokesh had delivered so far and looking forward to all his future films. An intelligent director who can deliver blockbuster (a rare combination)
Bro I'm from hyd. Telugu speaking. Even I'm too curious to know something about making of the film. But unfortunately these 2 guys are speaking in tamil.
DC Mentions: 48:16 Na Oru DC Guy 49:12 The Dark Knight trilogy Inspiration 1:19:51 "Do you bleed" Semma mass aana dialog 1:39:05 Marvel Illa Sir, Only DC. 1:39:21 Hans Zimmer Music reference
The film was filled with clever scenes, that elevates the action sequences. Two of my favorite scenes were the wedding scene with weapon concealment (Plata o plomo - pablo escobar reference) and Sethupathi asking everyone to leave the home, while kalviya selvama plays on the radio. Waiting for the next Lokesh film
One thing which I noticed was, that pesticide guy is Amar gang. He was already known to Santhanam Gang, but he just walks easily along with Amar gang into the reception. I thought santhanam would doubt it and there would be clash between Amar gang and Santhanam gang.
Mine too. Body language of VJS when playing kalviya, veerama, selvama. Adding on, movie's main plot is the wedding scene and if you have watched the teaser of this movie (released 2 yrs back), you'll be amazed to see the connection. Also the song, chakku chakku vathikuchi song at the beginning when Kamal apparently gets captured and then again in the prison cell. Displays aesthetic sense and sheer brilliance.
When Kamal said ,' people who are addicted to drugs are like Monkeys', I immediately connected to Vijay Sethupathi and it's family, where VJS being the Alpha male and wanting to safeguard it's community. Just brilliant writing :D
Since the movie release, was very eagerly anticipating this interview...1 hr 46 mins uffffff...No one can beat BR when it comes to asking many quality questions, scene by scene dissections...Only BR things
Oh man This guy thought of all perspective and dimensions of a Story writing 😮 unbelievable . And his questioning himself with why, where , how for all possibilities of thought is Awesome . One of Rare gift to our Indian cinema . Just think a Pan India film from Lokesh Kanagaraj❤️🔥❤️🔥
When Lokesh says that Oomai Vizhigal was the most scariest film of his childhood.. almost every other 90s kid would agree.. Still i remember i used go get chills when that bgm and villain on the horse cart comes on screen.
This has to be one the best interviews ever given by a director. I mean, Lokesh na is taking a session on filming techniques and methodologies than just describing his directorial experience. If you are a budding filmmaker, probably this interview will help us note down stuff. Amazing questions by BR as always 🔥
Yes! Finally. More excited for this than the movie. Watching a film after BR's analysis with the director gives an entirely new perspective/context to the experience!
What i loved in the film is that it doesn't insult the audience's IQ or spoonfeeds them.. Some of what Baddie's asking did strike me as well as i watched the film a second time....and it's amazing how Lokie has ready responses.. Its a masterclass in enjoying and appreciating cinema.... What it does for a fan like me is to try and look beyond the obvious in any content i see..... Creators such as kamal and lokesh deserve credit for educating the audience and bringing them up to a certain IQ level that allows them to explore and appreciate good cinema...
I am equally impressed with Lokesh's talent in writing, directing and handling interviews. Handling interviews is a really difficult process whether or not you are a favourite of the interviewer, and Lokesh is doing a great job with these interviews. He is certainly worth the praise that he is receiving and so is his technical team. Amazing work.
⠀⠀⠀ ⠀ What I like about lokesh is.... accepting the mistakes....in public...when an interviewer asks.. about the mistake... 💥💥He agree with them....even in twitter .....he accepted his mistake when a fan asked about VFX of vIkram.... 💥💥Keep it up.....
That reference to the name Stephen Raj. And Loki's answer that it was kept as Arjun Das had the same baritone voice as Salim Ghosh... OMG huge fanboy moment. My brother and myself used to use this name for all our plays as children ❤️❤️❤️
Given a cinematic genius that he is, Kamal Hassan still agreed to be a part of LCU and not interfere in the writing, cos he was clearly able to visualize Lokesh’s vision and his world. This by itself, is a testament to how creative Lokesh is. To ensure there are no are loose ends and have such a riveting screenplay and interesting characters is phenomenal. Only wish is he never compromises on his writing based on the star value and he’ll go places. Credit to BR for his deep dive questions resulting in some amazing answers.
Amazing Interview! Lokesh Kanagaraj is going to be the present and future for Tamil Cinema. I'm mentioning it as "Tamil" Cinema because the way the other industries are already envying us for being such a creative and trend setting script writer. Kudos to Him and his entire team who have been improving from Maanagaram till Vikram. He has made sure to deliver what his creativity thoughts goes around and as always Thanks to Kamal sir for being an actor and not getting into the business of such a creative mind. Kamal sir knows where his beautiful experience and support needs to be given and where not to. He trusts the director and let's him do his job. Which is an amazing quality by itself and comes only by maturity and experience. And not intervening like other small actors who acts as though they know everything about Cinema. Expecting lot more beautiful scripts from LK and his team. Thanks a lot for being such an entertaining and creative script writer. Your humble nature and grounded thought process is very much visible and felt in every word you say. 👍
Enjoyed a Tamil film in theater after a looooooooooooooooong time! Hope you keep up your standard in future also. Never compromise for the sake of the "HERO" image! Congratz Mr.Lokesh Kanagaraj!
true. Mansur ali khan is a total badass. I loved all his 90s movies and he terrorizes like no other villains. Compared to Anandh raj, Ponnambalam Mansur used to terrorize me a lot. Very good actor and like Anadh, he can be a good comedic relief too. That is what I love about him. Also I thought the gym fight scene is a reference to Singaravelan gym fight, but my bad that no one spoke about it. I watched 3 times in the theatre in the US and i am astonished that even on 7th day I saw quite a lot of people in the hall. Where I live, the % of Tamizh people is very very less and this movie is solid even in such an area. Kudos Loki !
@@manickkavallisreeraj7909 For people who haven't seen the movie yet...this might be a spoiler so please look away. In the scene where they follow Kamal, the police guys would be watching a youtube video. That is a song from the movie Asuran(old movie) which sort of bases its story with Predator (Arnold). What's surprisng is that Mansur Ali Khan's role in that movie Asuran is a continuation of his role from Captain Prabhakaran. Given how this movie has it's world, I think it's a nice touch that Lokesh used another character that has already been in the same character across two movies. Here is that song ruclips.net/video/OkJkjyVFX8E/видео.html&ab_channel=NHTamilSongs
This interview is almost 2 hours but felt like 20 mins. Amazing interview with the very intelligent Lokesh and great person to get questioned by Mr. Baradwaj 👍... already loved the movie when I first watched it and now love it even more after hearing this analysis & breakdown. Hats off!
I don't agree with badddy regarding VJS character not being evil enough. I loved VJS as the villain. There was not one shade of Bhavani in this movie. He looked like a different person all together which is an achievement in itself. The villainism was not to the extent of Bhavani but he was still a good villain and he delivered and how!
Im watching vikram more then 10 times but enakku 60% taa purinchici, inthe interview pathatuku apperam 100% purinchiruci, inthe alavuku yentha director um ivalo theliva explain panne madan, vera level LCU
Kamal is 100 times a better cinema legend than people like Rajini, Vijay, Ajith and deserves all the praise, legacy and money. The best part is Kamal spends all his money back on people (films then politics now) 2k kids - support Kamal for a better tomorrow. He is such an honest visionary. Superb intellect who will take TN to greater heights!
@@redpillmatrix3046 agreed, but speaking about real life motivator, I still think no one comes close to Kamal Haasan because of the number of failures he faced for making remarkable movies. Yet he never gave up on audience and cinema. And today the next generation is realising his true calibre, that's the highest point of motivation and inspiration.
This shows how clever Lokesh is in his writing , He preplans everything in his writing itself and improve it in the time being . Given the fact that he handled all the characters and the way the screenplay is he totally carries everthing in his shoulders and tries to deliver what he truly wanted to give us . It seems that he wants the film to be more brutal but because of the audience he subtle in this part a bit , with some years move by I hope he actually does this in his coming films . LCU as an idea is awesome but delivering it will be much difficult yet he pulled it off with a bang in VIKRAM , really cant wait to see what are his ideas with all the different characters in his universe !
Agent Tina’s background is Honey Trap. He said it in some interview. There was a woman used as honeytrap to catch Veerappan. ISRO Nambi Narayanan case also has some honey trap link but was not true.
27:42 So, vikram is not a kuruttu maanga adi victory, but a properly thought, analyzed and planned staging that has involved understanding each other's strengths and weaknesses. Kamal won't easily give up the mantle to someone until the person really deserves.
Bharadwaj sir! In case you are unaware Vikram was a big success in Telugu as well. People from the Telugu states would also want to watch this interview. #RallyForSubtitles
Fahad/Amar has the classic Dan Harmon's Hero's Journey. He sets up to find the masked man, Gets into the unknown world of drug mafia and cartel, finds the masked man, in turn loses his loved one, realizes about his true intentions and motives, then becomes the masked vigilante who fights injustice.
By far my favourite character in the film. And fafa just absolutely buried it. Anyone else, Prithvi raj, nivin anyone else wouldn’t have been able to do it that well. Fahadhs screen presence is something else.
It would be great if you would interview another unsung hero of all the latest films, ANIRUDH. Seriously he has been the saviour in most of the recent movies. If not for his music, they would have been horrible to watch. He has done amazing work in Vikram. This interview was brilliant but you have invited lokesh more than once already, he will be like "Evlo darva dhan ena interview panuvinga" :D
After watching his four movies and almost saw all his interviews, I firmly believe that Lokesh is one of the real role model for all the people who wants to work sincerely and achiever success but stay humble, down to earth, and simple yet brilliant!! Hats off Lokesh !! You are one of the new big hope of Talents and will be in the top spot for next decades!! Best of luck !! Could not wait for Vikram 3.
Lokesh, please dont get carried away with this massive success, i am sure you will not… continue to do excel and keep doing better than what you are, all the best… waiting for your next movie
Lokesh is in ri8 path..The clarity in his speech and his plan on future projects is bang on...Leave him d same, he'll impress u more ... And BR great interview as usual and d funnier side in u has improved....enjoyed it
This interview is the best example of how the right questions prompts the best answers. I can see the difference between lokesh's answer in this interview and other interviews. Good work as usual Baddy!
Wow.. super analysis.. enjoyed BR 's questions & Lokesh's solid answers.. I enjoyed Vikram a lot & could connect with Kaidi.. time restraint & budget is a big issue in Indian cinema.. I personally feel Lokesh should make films according to his time , so that there will be no quality compromises.. Lokesh should never ever compromise on content for stars... Kudos to Lokesh & team .. so gracious of big stars to join in a film & making it a huge success.. hats off to Lokesh. God bless him in future projects.
The whole interview was great. Glad that you asked him about VJS's character because I too felt that there was a dip and maybe that character should've been more deadly but knowing that there were some scenes that didn't make the final cut makes it bittersweet because it was not that Lokesh didn't think about it, rather it was a decision to make the film U/A.
Lokesh clearly likes to give interviews to Baddie. Man is pretty much comfortable and the way he answers to his questions or the tone can't be seen in any other Loki's interviews. Bold guess, someday Baddie's gonna feature in Lokesh padam
Intha matri padam continues ah hit aana mass masala padam laam inni odaathu. Yess indian cinema needs quality films like Hollywood. All the best lokesh
Mann Lokesh, it was a delight to see how a fraction of your thought and mental process works. I'm literally smiling because I'm so excited for the novel things you're introducing to the world of Tamil Cinema. Make us proud macha 💪

A Screenwriting Masterclass by Lokesh Kanagaraj 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻. The Writer seems to be incharge of the proceedings and the Director takes charge after the writing is done ✅✅✅ The new Gem Of Indian Cinema 💎💎💎
What would be if baby naming scene is as below Prapanjan expressing to Karnan that baby name is Vikram (Eye expressions between two as said by Lokesh) Then Karnan moving towards baby's ears and "Vikram Vikram Vikram BGM in background"... Will it be a goosebumps...
I love BR’s interviews. He asks very intelligent questions and LK’s answers are brilliant. I have been waiting for this interview. I loved the pre-release interview also. Well done 👍👍👍
I never watched any movie more than once in my life. But only for You (Lokesh) and Anirudh background score ,I have watched this insanely masterpiece movie THRICE times. And Please Do promotion of your upcoming Movies in Hindi belt. Three times I have watched with 15-20 people only that's hurts lot. If SS Rajamauli is Marvel then your Our DC.

Given how this movie has it's world, I think it's a nice touch that Lokesh used another character that has already been in the same character across two movies. Here is that song ruclips.net/video/OkJkjyVFX8E/видео.html&ab_channel=NHTamilSongs
This interview is almost 2 hours but felt like 20 mins. Amazing interview with the very intelligent Lokesh and great person to get questioned by Mr. Baradwaj 👍... already loved the movie when I first watched it and now love it even more after hearing this analysis & breakdown. Hats off!
Thank you for the English subtitles for helping non Tamil speaking people 😍😍😍
I don't agree with badddy regarding VJS character not being evil enough. I loved VJS as the villain. There was not one shade of Bhavani in this movie. He looked like a different person all together which is an achievement in itself. The villainism was not to the extent of Bhavani but he was still a good villain and he delivered and how!
I think except the the way of speaking, there was literally nothing different about it. But I blame the writers for that, vjs did what he could.
VJS has reached saturation point as a villain
Vjs improved a lot on the character, but there was not much of writing for his character
@@AN-nl4fs Look at the body language. Bhavani is a chill character while Sandhanam is restless and driven by his fear of Rolex
Im watching vikram more then 10 times but enakku 60% taa purinchici, inthe interview pathatuku apperam 100% purinchiruci, inthe alavuku yentha director um ivalo theliva explain panne madan, vera level LCU
10 time aa 😮😮 , enaku 1st time e purinchuthu bro....apo neenga no country for old men - Hollywood movie paarunga pls bro .....my request bro....
Kamal is 100 times a better cinema legend than people like Rajini, Vijay, Ajith and deserves all the praise, legacy and money. The best part is Kamal spends all his money back on people (films then politics now)
2k kids - support Kamal for a better tomorrow. He is such an honest visionary. Superb intellect who will take TN to greater heights!
Bull shit
Kamal is talented but not motivational like rajni vijay ajith. Rajini Vijay Ajith motivates lots of youngsters.
@@redpillmatrix3046 making cringe motivational movies doesn't make them motivational.
@@ContractorNesamani91 they are motivational off screen with their hardwork they don't have botn talent like kamal especially ajith life story.
@@redpillmatrix3046 agreed, but speaking about real life motivator, I still think no one comes close to Kamal Haasan because of the number of failures he faced for making remarkable movies. Yet he never gave up on audience and cinema. And today the next generation is realising his true calibre, that's the highest point of motivation and inspiration.

Thanks
This shows how clever Lokesh is in his writing , He preplans everything in his writing itself and improve it in the time being . Given the fact that he handled all the characters and the way the screenplay is he totally carries everthing in his shoulders and tries to deliver what he truly wanted to give us . It seems that he wants the film to be more brutal but because of the audience he subtle in this part a bit , with some years move by I hope he actually does this in his coming films . LCU as an idea is awesome but delivering it will be much difficult yet he pulled it off with a bang in VIKRAM , really cant wait to see what are his ideas with all the different characters in his universe !
Agent Tina’s background is Honey Trap. He said it in some interview.
There was a woman used as honeytrap to catch Veerappan.
ISRO Nambi Narayanan case also has some honey trap link but was not true.
@@kameshvs but was not ah?
@@HaveAgoodDayFellas yes
37:14: Tamil cinema is going places. LCU -> Brilliant Idea!
27:42 So, vikram is not a kuruttu maanga adi victory, but a properly thought, analyzed and planned staging that has involved understanding each other's strengths and weaknesses.
Kamal won't easily give up the mantle to someone until the person really deserves.
Where are the English Subtitles? You are doing a disservice to those who appreciate Tamil cinema, but don't understand the Language.
'Rise of a Legend' is what runs in my mind when I hear to Lokesh Kanagaraj Sir!
Take a look at 1:13:20 Then💥💥
There is some sense of joy listening to Lokesh, his success is felt as our own success, keep doing such great films 👍
Bharadwaj sir! In case you are unaware Vikram was a big success in Telugu as well. People from the Telugu states would also want to watch this interview.
#RallyForSubtitles
Fahad/Amar has the classic Dan Harmon's Hero's Journey. He sets up to find the masked man, Gets into the unknown world of drug mafia and cartel, finds the masked man, in turn loses his loved one, realizes about his true intentions and motives, then becomes the masked vigilante who fights injustice.
He was absolutely insane...Loved him!
By far my favourite character in the film. And fafa just absolutely buried it. Anyone else, Prithvi raj, nivin anyone else wouldn’t have been able to do it that well.
Fahadhs screen presence is something else.
It would be great if you would interview another unsung hero of all the latest films, ANIRUDH. Seriously he has been the saviour in most of the recent movies. If not for his music, they would have been horrible to watch. He has done amazing work in Vikram. This interview was brilliant but you have invited lokesh more than once already, he will be like "Evlo darva dhan ena interview panuvinga" :D
exactly
It feels like I am rewatching the movie inside the director mind 😃🤩🥺
After watching his four movies and almost saw all his interviews, I firmly believe that Lokesh is one of the real role model for all the people who wants to work sincerely and achiever success but stay humble, down to earth, and simple yet brilliant!! Hats off Lokesh !! You are one of the new big hope of Talents and will be in the top spot for next decades!! Best of luck !! Could not wait for Vikram 3.
Lokesh, please dont get carried away with this massive success, i am sure you will not… continue to do excel and keep doing better than what you are, all the best… waiting for your next movie
This interview is like Vikram movie..
No lag , No boring... Very interesting and engaging... ❤️❤️❤️
Lokesh is in ri8 path..The clarity in his speech and his plan on future projects is bang on...Leave him d same, he'll impress u more ...
And BR great interview as usual and d funnier side in u has improved....enjoyed it
This interview is the best example of how the right questions prompts the best answers. I can see the difference between lokesh's answer in this interview and other interviews. Good work as usual Baddy!
Also movie got released... Now Lokesh ready to reveal
Wow.. super analysis.. enjoyed BR 's questions & Lokesh's solid answers.. I enjoyed Vikram a lot & could connect with Kaidi.. time restraint & budget is a big issue in Indian cinema.. I personally feel Lokesh should make films according to his time , so that there will be no quality compromises.. Lokesh should never ever compromise on content for stars... Kudos to Lokesh & team .. so gracious of big stars to join in a film & making it a huge success.. hats off to Lokesh.
God bless him in future projects.
இது தமிழ் interview ஆ english interview ஆ எதுக்கு இவன் இப்போ ரொம்ப பீட்டர் உர்ரான் தாங்க முடியல anchor அ மாத்துங்கடா 🤣🥴🤬
Dilli - Kabbadi Player aah😯
The whole interview was great. Glad that you asked him about VJS's character because I too felt that there was a dip and maybe that character should've been more deadly but knowing that there were some scenes that didn't make the final cut makes it bittersweet because it was not that Lokesh didn't think about it, rather it was a decision to make the film U/A.
Lokesh clearly likes to give interviews to Baddie. Man is pretty much comfortable and the way he answers to his questions or the tone can't be seen in any other Loki's interviews.
Bold guess, someday Baddie's gonna feature in Lokesh padam
There is a strong possibility!
It's because Baddie has been interviewing him right since the managaram days.
@@anirudh5870 He knows how to take interviews
Full of spoiler
Put subtitles... So many film lovers around the world want to listen to him.. it's a request
Intha matri padam continues ah hit aana mass masala padam laam inni odaathu. Yess indian cinema needs quality films like Hollywood. All the best lokesh
Havent seen much directors giving such a deep conversation post release of the film...
Hats off to Lokesh 🖤 More excited to see LCU
See Rohith's interview after "Kala" release
@@sharonscaria No, we are especially speaking about Multi verse kind of complex commerical story...
.
Because there's no such details to discuss in their movies
Will there be a vikram uncut. If yes, eagerly waiting for it 🔥
Mann Lokesh, it was a delight to see how a fraction of your thought and mental process works.
I'm literally smiling because I'm so excited for the novel things you're introducing to the world of Tamil Cinema. Make us proud macha 💪
1:13:18 67?
எவ்வளவு பெரிய சம்பவத்தை பண்ணிட்டு எப்படி லோகேஷ் இவ்வளவு அடக்கமா இருக்கீங்க.. இதுவே வேற யாராவதா இருந்தா பீத்தி தள்ளி இருப்பானுங்க... இனி எடுக்கப் போற பத்மா இருக்கட்டும் already எடுத்த படமா இருக்கட்டும் இது எல்லாத்துக்கமானதெளிவை எவ்வளவு அழகா விலக்குறீங்க... கமல்சாரின் ரசிகன் கூட எவ்வளவு புத்திசாலியா இருக்காங்க... வாழ்த்துக்கள் லோகேஷ்
Truly LK is great! He has revealed so much of the LK universe here in the interview which means how confident he must be in his screenwriting for the future films of LKU
I was half expecting Baradwaj to lose it and suddenly start vibing like 'VIKRAM!'. But seriously, what a movie and what an amazing score by Anirudh!
A Screenwriting Masterclass by Lokesh Kanagaraj 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻.
The Writer seems to be incharge of the proceedings and the Director takes charge after the writing is done ✅✅✅
The new Gem Of Indian Cinema 💎💎💎
he is giving a new dimension what tamil cinema needed❤️🔥
and he is just growing based on the amazing response..🔥
1:19:00 True lies
Elam therinjavan amaidhiyaa dha irupan 💯🔥
Lokesh you can show Mansoor alikhan as rolex's mama (uncle) in a story of Rolex , would be semma mass 💥💥💥
"true lies sir" - lokesh correcting him. Mass.
I love that he's so open about his love for DC movies. Lighting, Music, Shots so much was inspired from that.
What would be if baby naming scene is as below
Prapanjan expressing to Karnan that baby name is Vikram
(Eye expressions between two as said by Lokesh)
Then Karnan moving towards baby's ears and "Vikram Vikram Vikram BGM in background"...
Will it be a goosebumps...
Glad that Bharadwaj is asking the question that audience wants to ask & also the questions that It didn't occur in my mind but was a good question 👌👏
Like Snyder cut for justice League I'm need lokesh cut for the vikram 💥🔥
I love BR’s interviews. He asks very intelligent questions and LK’s answers are brilliant. I have been waiting for this interview. I loved the pre-release interview also. Well done 👍👍👍
I never watched any movie more than once in my life. But only for You (Lokesh) and Anirudh background score ,I have watched this insanely masterpiece movie THRICE times.
And Please Do promotion of your upcoming Movies in Hindi belt. Three times I have watched with 15-20 people only that's hurts lot.
If SS Rajamauli is Marvel then your Our DC.
Lots of Love from Maharashtra.
This interview itself is like another Vikram. Each revealing from Lokesh on how the script was developed is going like a movie in my mind.
Ar.murugadoss & lokesh unbelievable.
Rendu perum paakka calm ah irupanga.
But output blast 💥🔥
I wish they had subtitles
1:03:00 and 1:10:57 Omg Naadi narambu sadha buthi la lam cinema veri screenplay veri oori ponavaraala dhan ipdi lam yosika mudiyum🙆🤯..Nan nenaikuren neenga Bank la customer oda savings money uh vida cinema industry uh epdi safety pannanum, pokkisham maari handle pannanum nu dhan adhigam yosichurupinga nu..Brilliant 👏👏
BR, High time we do a Master class with BR. This is terrific. Screenplay writing demystified in 90 mins ❤️❤️❤️
This man is pure gem. His story telling and all that shit is so clever. Huge fan of him after Vikram
That mobile shop story with Kamal sir would have been amazing Lokesh :) Would love to see it in future.
Prolific interview. Really enjoyed watching this whole interview and went at lightening speed. Wish it continued for more time. Thanks to BR for sensible and intelligent questions and LK is brilliant & humble after huge success!
My God such a good movie...just can't wait for the next part
"ille sir, DC than... kandippa DC than". Ange nikkiraanya yen thalaivan.
Galatta Plus : This interview has the duration of approximately 2 hours..!!
Me : Lokesh na interview thaane.. Thaa... Paathukalaam!☺️😉
Thank you for a brilliant watch Lokesh. Can notice so much more details upon the 2nd watch. Vikram demands it.
Each trap of first half till interval block was massive which made us to dissolve into lokesh universe he is Indian Stand Lee ❤️
ஒரு அனுபவம் மிக்க மிகச்சிறந்த திரை கலைஞரும் ஆற்றல் மிக்க இளைய தலைமுறை இயக்குனரும் இணைந்தால் எப்படி பட்ட சிறந்த படைப்பு உருவாகும் என்பதற்கு இந்த படம் மிகச்சிறந்த உதாரணம் வாழ்த்துக்கள் அனைவருக்கும் 👍💐💐💐
This excellent discussion should tag along after the movie probably in OTT media.
For a 'DC' guy, the way Lokesh has built his universe is more reminiscent of the meticulous way Marvel built theirs.
He meant the tone of movie .... Marvel's are action-comedy
Lol no
India should be proud of Loki to pull this off, i don't see any other director doing this!!! It was class.
1:36:05 🔴 true 💯 finally one director got this clarity 😌
