Haasan plays a classical dancer, a role for which he trained for a month at a time when he was working multiple shifts. The film was remade as Sadma in Hindi a year later.
Haasan formed a hit combination with Sreedevi through much of the late ‘70s and the early ‘80s, and this is one of their best films together. Directed by Balu Mahendra, who also won a National Award for his stellar cinematography, Haasan plays a school teacher who rescues a woman with retrograde amnesia. Haasan won his first National Award for a lead role with a poignant performance in Moondram Pirai. The film drew inspiration from movies like Butterflies Are Free while the climax was a tribute to The Graduate and made us all believe in love. The music score by Ilaiyaraaja and stunning visuals by Barun Mukherji elevated the film. Haasan plays a visually challenged violinist and works up a terrific chemistry with Madhavi in this film directed by Singeetam Srinivasa Rao. Kamal Haasan’s 100 th film will always be remembered as one of his sweetest love stories. While Vikram continues to get viewers on Disney+ Hotstar and Haasan gears up to resume filming for Indian 2, we pick his six most memorable films from the 1980s that are a must watch.
