Thug Life

In case you're wondering, that's the title of the recently announced Kamal Haasan film. It’s going to be his 234th film. And it's being directed by Mani Ratnam, marking their reunion after more than three decades, 36 years after giving the blockbuster Nayakan (1987), the actor and director duo are reuniting once more.

The drooling fans have already declared it a hit. If you're living under a rock and haven't watched the teaser, it has Kamal Haasan fighting barehanded with armed Samurai like fighters. He looks good doing it, even at 69. That's saying something. He's making screen fighting look easy. But that's the actor for you in a nutshell. He makes everything he does look so easy and natural. His moments, his expressions, are just like the flow of water. They look so serene that you can lose yourself watching them all day on loop and never get bored. Both Ratnam and Haasan have recently given the biggest hits of their careers respectively in Ponniyin Selvan and Vikram respectively and hence one can understand why the masses are waiting for this film with bated breath.
