For 50 bucks, you get to watch 10 Kamals. Too much money involved, let them make some. She is cute though completely out of place and such a nuisance.7 of 10 characters in the movie are played by Kamal just for the heck of it. The effort is epic, sadly the product is not.Asin’s character Andal gives you a bad headache with her “Perumal” cries. Maybe thats Kamals message about religion as a whole, packaged well and very fast.The scope of the film and the effort that went in may go unmatched in Indian cinema. You panic when the formidable Christian Fletcher (looks like Shane Warne) chases Dr Govind, it doesn’t hit you that both are Kamal and you root for your hero. Rest is one hell of a fancy dress competition.Įven though 9 Kamal’s are there in the fray at one time, the make-up and characterization gives us a feel that there is only one Kamal(Dr Govind,the hero). Every chase needs 2 chicks, the good girl with the hero is Asin and the vamp with the villain is Mallika Sherawat. Rest of the movie is one big chase which finally ends up in the Bay of Bengal where the Vishnu idol lies. Then we are transported to 2004 where Dr Govind(Kamal) discovers a fatal virus and Ex-CIA bad guy Christian Fletcher tries to take it from him. King Kulothunga packs the idol and the idol lover together and dumps both in the Bay of Bengal.

The movie begins in the 12th Century when the local Shaivaite King’s move to remove the Vishnu idol from a temple is opposed by Nambi (Kamal), a Vaishnavite.
