IRUVAR - When Anandan meets the producer after his first movie is shelved.
A number of top directors in Malayalam believe that it was Mani Ratnam who extracted the best performance ever by Mohanlal in his first Tamil movie. Its quite amazing how the same man who played the egotistical unabashed landlord brilliantly in 'Devasuram' could also be molded so effortlessly to the unassuming modest Anandan in Iruvar. In a brilliantly acted scene, Anandan confronts the producer after his first movie is shelved and tries his best to convince him to resume the movie. As the producer replies it is not possible, Anandan is heartbroken. Yet amidst the grief, he bids goodbye to the producer and tells him he would never forget him in his life. There is no over-burst yet Mohanlal's eyes speak volumes about his pain. It's a fine instance of how subtle restrained acting could also move you completely. It remains a mystery to me why Mohanlal did not win that year's National or State awards for Iruvar. And to mention A.R Rahman's music in the background - 'Pure Awesomeness.'
