Hi everyone, thanks for listening. Drop a line or two about the episode!
In conversation with Baradwaj Rangan on Mani Ratnam's modern classic, Nayakan (1987).
We chat about the landmark film's craft, including Kamal Haasan's departure from star signature for the role of Velu, DoP P. C. Sreeram's groundbreaking work, Raaja's legendary score — and Mani Ratnam, the formalist filmmaker.
Rangan shared his experience of watching Nayakan in the theaters at the time of its release, and we discussed the film's legacy, the film's influence on several popular films, as well as influences on Nayakan.
I also asked Rangan if we will ever get to watch an out-and-out action movie by Mani Ratnam.
