KOLLYWOOD MOVIE REVIEWS

Marmayogi = Maruthanayagam?

With the commencement of Marmayogi, it's time for controversies to

take centre stage. The recent buzz that has been doing rounds in

Kollywood is that Kamal Haasan is trying to revive his dream project

Maruthanayagam and pass it off as Marmayogi. A few years ago, the

ambitious actor started Maruthanayagam amidst much fanfare. It may

be recounted that this
Kamal
film, which was also directed by Kamal, was shelved when a section

of the society raised a hue and cry over depicting their community

in dark light. But Kamal's new appearance for Marmayogi, which is

similar to one he sported during the Maruthanayagam days, has raised

doubts that he has plans to serve the old wine in a new bottle.

However, Marmayogi is based in the 7th century while Maruthanayagam

was a warrior who lived in the 18th century.
