Those who say they want to watch the old version of Lalaitan should take Kamal Haasan’s movie Prithviraj as an example
Directed by Lokesh Kanakaraj, Vikram has become a huge hit in theatres. Vikram is also Kamal Haasan’s film which became a huge hit soon after. The film also stars Vijay Sethupathi and Fahadh Faasil in the lead roles and belongs to the Lokesh film universe.
Prithviraj said that in Vikram, Lokesh showed the audience a new Kamal Haasan and that is what a director should do. Vikram is a brilliant piece of work
Prithviraj also said that Rajinikanth, Kamal Haasan, Mammootty and Mohanlal should be used like never before. In an interview with Behind Woods, Prithvi added that saying you want to see old Mohanlal is somehow an insult to his status as an actor.
Today, it is very challenging to make a film with big actors of the level of Rajinisar, Kamal sir, Mammootty sir, Mohanlal sir.
Because we shouldn’t let them play roles that they have played before. There is a saying in Malayalam that we want to watch old lullabies. It is really an insult to him as an actor.
When you see Vikram, you will understand how well Lokesh has done. When we watch the scenes of Mr. Kamal Haasan, we know that Lokesh is showing the Mr. Kamal of today. Lokesh shows the latest Kamal Haasan.
But I saw it all in that shot making, writing and Kamal sir’s performance. Needless to say, you are all small potatoes. I like Vikram very much. If people talk to Vikram about Lucifer, I take it as a compliment,” Prithviraj said.
