Christmas Eve can make for a very peculiar situation when you are little kid. All those gifts have been wrapped up and are waiting for you under the tree and you've already been told that you will love it. But there's a catch, you cannot open them until the next day, and all the while you are anxious to find out why other people think you will love it. The thought that it's going to be a surprise just for you drives you mad, yet you eagerly hold your horses without taking a sneak peek at them, just to feel the "wow" first-hand, at the right time.
When you think about it, it's funny how films can invoke similar emotions in you. Only this time, the wait has been far too long, more than the opening day and more than the blockbuster weekend. Vishwaroopam has made all of Tamil Nadu look forward to a court verdict and has come closest to make the people pay respect for art instead of succumbing to piracy. Having already lost a good portion of what's at stake, Kamal Hassan's so called "magnum-opus" is here.
After a couple of weeks packed with drama, it can be understood why Kamal Hassan gave his everything to Vishwaroopam. The moment you set your eyes upon it, you know that it was worth the wait. It boasts a level of thought that raises the bar for even Kamal Hassan who is known for his dedication.
