In conversation with actor Kamal Haasan and writer Jeyamohan | The Hindu
Вставка
- Опубліковано 4 жов 2024
- Of all the facets of #KamalHaasan - actor, director, screenwriter, dancer, singer, politician and more - perhaps the least discussed is his engagement with Tamil literature. He has often collaborated with writers for his films and has spoken of the various literary influences on his life and work.
Last week, Haasan caught up with prolific Tamil writer #Jeyamohan, whose new book, 'Stories of the True', the English translation of his bestselling short story collection, 'Aram', releases on July 27.
In a freewheeling conversation at the actor’s studio in Chennai, they discussed world literature, their philosophical and aesthetic beliefs, the intersection of literature and cinema, and more.

He is like current updated computer with Google web site. Instantly giving examples and explaining with similar cases. He is special gift by God to the cinema and tamil
He doesn't believe in God and there's no evidence that he or she or it exists
Maybe you don't read much and tend to think way too highly of him. Most actors in Tamil film industry probably don't read much, which makes Kamal stand out. Otherwise, he's no Google or gift of God. Stop putting everyone you don't understand on a pedestal and stop human worshiping.
@@UA-camUA-cam-gy3lt Right on.
@@UA-camUA-cam-gy3lt of course he is much better then me bro. Just think he is the best actor, screenplay and story writer, lyricist and he knows cinema better then current actors. He reads lots of books and his speech are intellectual and etc. At his status he is much much more knowledgeable person then others. He is defiantly so far ahead of many of the people who currently live in the world.he is a very hard worker who does not believe in luck.
@@UA-camUA-cam-gy3lt but still better than your ego

I'm in my close 60years. Die hard fan of this Legend. Did you noticed and look at the way the Legend speak and answer. He knows almost everything and anything. What a great knowledgeable Legend he is.❤️
IS there any Indian cinema Hero’s can talk like Kamal sir,I don’t think so, He is a genius,Hat’s off sir
definitely not
Kiddo, Fahad Fasil Exist...
Just here malayalam star prithviraj interviews...If you know malayalam..Similar range of talks can be hear from him too...By the way he is a fan of kamal
@@Bhaskar_Blr poda podi payale kamal is giant avalo alavuku talent skill knowledge fahadku illa although he is the best actor now
@@adsadjashdb prithviraj nowhere near kamal haasan
The two legends speaks 26 mins is not enough...eager to listen more from the both together....still 26mins awesome time...
Ila brother kandipa neraiya pesirupaanga. If you noticed, ithulaye neraiya cuts theriyum.
Kamal is Indian actor which world you come from
இதனால்தான் அவர் சகலகலாவல்லவன். சகாப்தம். போற்றுவோம் ♥️🙏
இரண்டு ஆளுமை களையும் சந்தித்து உரையாடல் செய்தது மிகவும் சிறப்பு ...நன்றி இந்து வாழ்க வளமுடன்🌹
That's why this man is called Ulaganayagan who is an Encyclopaedia..His talent is remarkable 🙏🙏
Kamal sir is a genius. He is a all rounder
Mr.Kamal is an Encyclopaedia! I salute you sir!
IS there any Indian cinema Hero’s can give this kind of Interview , Nobody except Kamal sir, He is the best and genius.Hat’s off sir
இரண்டு இறந்த புத்தகங்கள் உரையாடுவதை கவனித்தேன். எவ்வளவு சிறப்பான விஷயங்கள் சர்வ சாதாரணமாக பேசிக் கொண்டது. பார்க்கவும் , கேட்கவும் பிரமிப்பாக இருந்தது. ஓரிரு புத்தகம் குறித்துக் கொண்டேன். இவர்களைப் போல் படைப்பாளிகள் பதிவுகள் வரவேற்கத்தக்கது...💐❤️🙏
இரண்டு இறந்த = ???? சிறந்த
Kamal avargal , through vikram movie has created one of the most mass pan India movie in Tamil cinema history when many Tamil movie were not making success.
Hope he succeeds not only in cinema but also in politics , kamal sir is a crown jewel of Tamil nadu and Indian cinema
he is so natural when he speaks in conversational tamil, instead of the classical tamil that he used to do more often.
We should document every knowledge that kamal sir has....
This video is dedicated to those who comment on Kamalhassan’s caliber ! Now we all witness why the title “Ulaganaayagan” suits him. Great conversation with Writer Jeyamohan.
No one replaces you Mr.Kamal sir.He can talk any topic.....What a man🥰
He can talk on any topic "related to cinema"..
Home of vision and abundance of knowledge.. Really a dedicated human kamal.. ❤
Kamal Sir's brain needs to be preserved.
wondering how kamal sir has abundance of Knowledge in everything.
Excellent conversation... Hats up to Kamal sir Jeyamohan sir and Hindu
Reading, lots and lots of reading
He's an avid reader and writer since childhood. His father and brothers are also like that. Pros of growing up in intellectual environment..
Abundance of knowledge in everything related to cinema.
Excellent conversation between Mr. Kamalhasan and Mr.Jeyamohan...well read people...true legends in their fields...
In his age,most people have Dementia,But he remember alot of things
Legend for a reason
I think he can speak with anyone who is into any field and talk like a person with very good knowledge in that field!!
@@anilkumar-ph1qi Kamal Haasan does a lot of namesdropping
He is actually a Living Encyclopedia
Any field? Seriously? He is very knowledgeable with respect to cinema but don't generalize. He is not a master in all fields.

உண்மையில் ஞாபக சக்தி அபாரம்தான். மனுசன் அருவி போல் புதுசு புதுசா சரளமாக கொட்டுகிறார்.
இந்த காலத்துக்குத் தேவையான Conversation, both of you great 👍
என் ஆசானின் பேச்சைக் கேட்க கேட்க தெவிட்டாது... 🔥🥰😘
Excellent Kamal sir 👏🏼 knowledge to the extreme 👏🏼 I'm baffled 🤩🤩
கற்றோரை கல்லாதோறும் காமுறும் உரையாடல்... சிறப்பு...
சிறப்பு...
நல்ல நூல்கள் திரைப்படம் ஆகட்டும். திரையில் இலக்கியம் பாயட்டும். மக்கள் இதயங்கள் ஈரமாகட்டும்!

"Kamal is an Intellectual among actors ,and an Actor among intellectuals"...CHO Ramasamy
He quotes names of books and authors that many people have never heard of...mind-blowing.
Genius Personalities! So nice to see such a good and sensible conversation between these two legends💥🔥🔥Hats off!
நீங்க சகலகலா வல்லவன் உலக நாயகன் எது செய்தாலும் நேர்த்தியாக இருக்கும் ஆண்டவர் ஆண்டவர் தான்🙏
The Urge to Buy Books & Read After Watching this Interview >>>>> Everything Else
This interview needs to come with its own reading list. Very rarely does a topic go so over my head.
Very true. Each and every reference.
Exactly what I felt!
எல்லா சப்ஜெக்ட்டிலும் மிகவும் க்ளியாராக இருக்கும் இவர் நிச்சியம் தெய்வபக்தராக இருப்பார் . அதையும் வெளிப்படுத்தி ரசிகர்கள் எங்களை மகிழவைப்பார் 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
It ended so abruptly. He stores a wealth of knowledge, such a reservoir!
finally, a perfect host who is really eligible to question Kamal sir, and take the show front hats off
எதிரில் இருப்பவர் பேசி முடிக்கும் வரை காத்திருப்பதுதான் நல்ல உரையாடலுக்கு அடிப்படை
Discussion na interpretation irukanum.avar pesuravaraikum wait panna waste
ஐயா,
என்னையா பேசிக்கிறாங்க.. அறிவு அருவி...
யாரேனும் இந்த வீடியோக்கு விளக்கவுரை தரவும்..
தமிழக மக்களே அறிவார்ந்த மகான் கமல்ஹாசன் அவர்களை பயன்படுத்தி கொள்ளுங்கள்.. நாடு வளம் பெற.
Poorest editing.. .when two genius converse what is the need for a cut. Upload the whole conversation.
This man how would be kept in his mind all the stuffs that had happened long ago... I always learn something from his interview.. keep interview like this personalities in spasmodic.. one thing we have to consider two giant personalities giving his own time to interview that it is not a easy matter at all, special thanks to hindhu keep rocking❤
I think we praised him enough, time to adapt him in our lives what ever form we can
Literary lovers join together this miracle always happen but it's not enough. We need part 2 of this discussion
Very Excellent conversation
Jeyamohan is a rare genius , adept at both Tamil & Malayalam , I have never heard of another writer at the top of the game mastering two indian languages.
Both Legends joining hands for Indian 2, badly waiting for around 3 years..but happy that finally it's resuming shoot really soon!
Best conversation 💙💙👆👌👌👌
கமல் ஹாசன் வெச்சு ஒரு நாவல் ஜெயமோகன் எழுதினார்னா அதுல கமல் மட்டும் தான் இருப்பார்..வேர் யாராச்சும் வந்தாலும் அது கமல் தான்.
Beautiful conversation between the two. So nice to hear it. Bliss 🤩🤩
Every day he gives u something new about himself so that u ll never ever stop loving him more and more
Andavar nammavar ulaganayagan kalainani Universal hero padmashri chevalier DR.KAMALHASSAN VAZHA 🙏
Great conversation! Expecting more deep talks like this @thehindu
பார் போற்றும் பாரத கலைஞர் அண்ணன் கமலஹாசன் 🙏
Intellectual... visionary,well read genius..he can talk on any subject. That's incredible.. True updated computer..
Find me an actor in India who can talk literature, is well read, talk in their native tongue without English interference and make a great writer like Jeyamohan get curious... he is not a great actor, but the greatest contributor to Indian cinema and a trendsetter... Ulaganayagan is not a title but an apt prefix
His memory power is no joke
2 legends are speaking......
200k legends are watching.....
One of Kamals old Malayalam film - love story starring him and Zareena wahab was based on the English novel of the same name.
The hero says about his dead girl friend- she was only 20- this line gave me goosebumps both while reading the book and watching the movie. The young kamal was outstanding - and still he is.
I admire his style and mannerism he expresses along with his talk....iyyo such a precious artist..
I would like to see this man as a CM of the state very soon. 💕
இவரை போல் ஒரவரை நாட்டை ஆள தேர்ந்தெடுக்காம ஏன்தான் மக்கள் ..ச௩்௧ிகள்..நாட்டை கெடுக்கும்..தலைர்களுக்கு ஓட்டு போட்டு...கேவல பட்டு வாழ்கிறார்கள்
Why? He will use state funds and make Vikram 3
@@Skandawin78 First we need intelligent People in Tamil Nadu.....not educated crucial thinking become CM....to develope....this type of back dated people and countries ..corruption money play the parts and spoiling overall structure / development ...everybody must have wider thinking level....to achieve better live in future....
@@jeyakumarjeya6131 agreed,but how does Kamal fit the bill. Just because he is a movie genius , can he manage a state? What kind of logic is that?
Why not PM 🙄
don't limit to CM
நன்றி திரு ஜெயமோகன் அவர்களே! கமல் அவர்களே! ஒரு photo வெளியானபோதே எதிர்பார்ப்புடன் காத்து இருந்தேன். எப்போதும் போல் கமல் அவர்களின் உரையாடல்களும் மேகோள்களும் ரசிக்கும்படி இருந்தது (பதில்கள் கேள்விக்கானதாக இல்லாமல் இருந்தாலும்) ஜெயமோகன் அவர்களின் ஆர்வம் கமல் அவர்களின் நேரடி இலக்கிய திரைப்பட மாற்றம் செய்த அனுபவம் அறிவது. பதில் இரண்டும் வேறு வகை என்பதை மறைமுகமாக சொல்லியிருக்கிறார் i assume. இலக்கியம் படமாக அrவத்தைக்காட்டிலும் இலக்கியம் தெரிந்த வல்லுநர்கள் படம் சிறப்பாக வரும் என்கிறார். லங்கேஸ்வரன் இன்னொரு வடக்கன் வீர காத வின் கமல் பாதிப்பு. அவருக்கு MTV அவர்கள் மேல் உள்ள மரியாதையை அனைவரும் அறிந்தது உங்கள் பொன்னியின் செல்வனை உலகமே paarkka ஆவலாக இருக்கும் போது இவ்வுரையாடல் மகிழ வைக்கிறது. Thank you!
Jeyamohan is a living legend
When someone from the tender age of 5 is exposed to arts and entertainment and starts off again at 17, this is what you get. For 50 years, his brain has been Constantly updating, Learning and unlearning. He’s the best!
திரு ஜெயமோகன் அவர்களுக்கு இலக்கியம் இலக்கணம் தெரியாமல் போனால்தான் தவறு ஆனால் திரு கமல்ஹாசன் அவர்களுக்கு இலக்கியம் இலக்கணம் தெரியவில்லை என்றால் தவறேதும் இல்லை. நடிப்பு நுணுக்கம், வசன நுணுக்கம், பாடல் நுணுக்கம், நடன நுணுக்கம், கதை நுணுக்கம், திரைக்கதை நுணுக்கம், சண்டை நுணுக்கம்.....அப்பப்பா என்ன ஒரு ஆழ்ந்த அறிவு.
Kamal sir is so eager to express his thoughts that he doesn't allow Jeyamohan sir to finish his questions.. It shows how much KH loves to conversate with JM sir.
Encyclopedia of Indian Cinema is Kamal Haasan Sir..
No Actor/Film Personality in Indian nor World Cinema will be able to match knowledge that Kamal Haasan Sir processes nor have mastery over all art forms of Filmmaking!!!
Hope the Ignorant People, Reviewers, Film Personalities in Indian & World Cinema wipe Saw Dust in their head and recognize, appreciate & honor Visionary that Kamal Haasan Sir was/is & will always will be!!!
I wish more conversations like this comes out with him on different topics! He is a walking treasure !This discussion has repeat value!
Removal of dislike button is huge disappointment
Thnku for coming at The Hindu , I have no doubt now
Brilliant! 26 minutes just flew by and had me wanting for more.
that room has a combined wisdom and knowledge of more than maybe 100s of people...
here knowledge is overwhelmed.....🔥🔥🔥
உண்மை. கமல் ஐயா பேசும்போது என்னை எழுத தூண்டியது. நன்றி 👍
the knowledge kamal sir carrying clearly shows how much he loves the field of art and literature, wish all artist reads books like him
Thanks for adding subs to This video and English translation of the book
நூறு நாற்காலிகள், enna romba athigama affect panna oru short story. Atha vaschitu oru rendu naal na thoogala... Jeyamogan ku romba nandrii
Where he gets time to read so much of Books.just wonderful
Both are highly intellectual and more interested in reading
Kamal is pulling examples of literature for each life scenarios from casual talks, whereas me pulling vadivelu memes for each life scenarios. Which shows this generation quickly changing and adapting to visual media than literature. Time to stop from meme world and jump into literature World for better tomorrow.
comparison of ondaatje and kalingathuparani only a man like KAMAL HAASAN sir can express... Because many doesn't know atleast one...knowing both and comparing them is something beyond excellence
The reason he is called 'Aandavar' (God - who knows everything ) .. justifed for that title 100%..!!!
Legends of legend ❤️🙏🏽
True legend Kamal deserves more accolades and awards
Intellectual connect
Two Best intelligence intellect discussion.It needs more time not enough... Worth discussion
Beautiful talk with 🌧️ rain
Oh Kamal sir conversation ah....pakalame....after 5 mins...yenna pa onnume purila....
Correct..puriyadhu. yenna nama innum padikanum neraya vishayam therinjakanum...Namaku theriyadha vishayatha kathuka try pannanume thavira vishayam therinju pesuravangala pathu 'enna pa avar pesuradhu puriya matengudhu' nu solla koodathu.
Maruka mudiyadha unmai enna na ivar solra vishayangal puriyira alavuku namaku dhan avalo vivram pathala.
I'm still learning as much as possible from you Sir.
He is seriously an encyclopaedia of literature and knowledge
*BIG FAN OF SIR JEYAMOHAN*
The conversation very useful a lot of message thank you mr .Kamal sir and mr.Jayamohan sir🙏
Written well. Executed Well. Looks like real Interview.
This video explains that Why Kamal is referred as Genius..😊
100 narkaligal paduchavuga like poduga ...
நெடுநேரம் தொடர்ந்து இருக்க வேண்டிய உரையாடல் சற்றே முடிந்தது.
Good conversation of international system kamall oru பஞ்சாமிர்தம்
Great effort guys, thanks for bringing this two into conversation♥
100 நாற்காலிகள் story best one
It’s more of a monologue. KH has lots in his head and he wants some brilliant person to vent out to. He cuts off J Mo often. I me myself is something KH does usually. Nevertheless, it’s always good to listen to what he has to say.
Yes. Thankfully, Jeyamohan brings him back. If it is someone else they may 've hesitation to do that 🙂
interesting conversation though.
I think it is the way the video is edited. I'm sure the original video is much longer.
