Mani Sir, more Sir - Tigmanshu Dhulia talks about Mani Ratnam |
Guru official website. |
Mani
Ratnam, both the words mean two types of Precious Stones in Tamil. And of course, he really is!!! The
name Mani Ratnam needs no introduction. He has revolutionised the Tamil
Film Industry, the Indian Film Industry in general with technically
strong films that are beautifully photographed, excellent music, a tremendous script based on
stories which are very close to reality (Nayagan, Roja, Bombay,
Kannathil Muthamittal, Aayitha Ezhuthu, Yuva, Guru). Every frame in a Mani Ratnam film is perfectly
composed and beautifully backlit even if this style involves total
violation of tonal, focal and colour continuity. He is the pride of the
entire nation and an idol for many filmmakers. But if you happen
to be one, still among the few unfortunate souls, then read on. |
