Haasan Drinks Tea!


Tea Shop Boiler Warning- If you don’t like Michael Madana Kama Rajan, you better kill yourself and get a next life in some alien planet.

After seeing Aboorva Sagaodargal, I became an ardent fan of Kamal Haasan. MMKR cemented Kamal Haasan with me in such a way that even I admired the way in which he yawn. Thalaivar enna azaga kotavividuraru! That was me as a kid, not anymore a icon-fanatic.

OK, boss what’s this post about. I’m not sure how many would have noticed this scene in MMKR. This happens when Madhan and Raju swap their identity. Madhan is having tea; he takes a sip and gives an instant vomiting reaction. He’ll then quietly keep the glass aside. 


This reaction to the tea taste is short, but speaks volume, as it gives insight to the elite class of Madhan. Living a hi-fi life and born with a laptop (I guess this was the first Tamil movie to show a laptop- edu romba mukiyama). This tea drinking scene has nothing to do with the story, but it adds an extra bit of mileage to the character.

Then you might ask why such a hifi\wifi character like Madhan did a Sivarathri song with Chaku Bai. “Adu veru, Idu veru”.

Can write many such nuances in this film, will write some other time!!
