There is a wonderful saying in Tamil " Tharmam Thalaikakkum. Thakka Samayathil Uyir Kakkum" roughly translates something like, The Dharma that you accrued through you Karma can save your life at the right time.
I will like to take this opportunity to dwell upon the important "Uriyadi 2" produced by Suriya. I got to see "Uriyadi 2" in Netflix after a while it was released. As a movie it had its elements but failed to sizzle like its first part.
But 'Uriyadi 2' is one of the significant movies that reenacted the Bhopal tragedy graphically. A very important moment in our history that every one of the Indian citizens need to relive, understand, introspect and feel miserable.
I guess Suriya needs to be commended for the fact that he produced an extremely important work which probably really did not reach as many people as it should have.
I guess Suriya's great stroke of luck that he managed to sell "Ponmagal Vanthal" through OTT Channels.
Despite the "Thailmarakalin Atharavu"(the support of the ladies) this pathetically made movie would have bit the dust.
May be the good deed of having produced , 'Uriyadi 2", Suriya saved him from a certain box office catastrophe.
P.S:
For the husband and wife duo who want to be another Samuthrakani, I still believe all they need is a good script, a good director.
May be they should seriously consider adapting "Revolutionary Road" and act in it themselves. It will set ablaze the hearts and rip it apart too. Jyotika in a way is in the mould of Kate Winslet and will be a perfect fit. The movie has plenty of messages too.
