THALAPATHY

I saw this film when i was just 5 or 6 six years old. Not to forget this was the first film i saw in the Big Screen .At that age i enjoyed the fighting sequences and style of rajini(perhaps he didnt depict much of his style in this movie).But when i saw it recently i understood what the film really meant to say .the message is clear cut ,perfect,Truthful .Well its a film displaying the conflict between family bonds and friendship bonds .The screenplay is awesome and i loved it to the full.
People say it resembles Mahabharatha (it was the work of maniratnam as well).Those who havent seen this great movie.Please dont mind wasting 2 and a half hours.It will be worthy enough.
