Kamal Hasan once again shows what it takes to be a good actor, comedian, and a perfect executor.The story maybe unrealistic but the execution by the director (of Pushpak fame) is remarkable. Also, the screenplay and music is good.The songs are also fantastic! God bless Kamal Hasan his charm constantly strikes to impress us throughout the movie as he specializes in all the four characters that he plays. Hats off to the effects, too!Minus the ridiculous sequences and out of bound scenes, this is a must watch!For more - bit.ly/TEJAS

First of all I am not even Tamil but I really enjoyed the movie. This movie has got to be one of the best comedies ever. I don't understand Tamil and the movie I watched did not even have subtitles. However, it did not stop me from enjoying the movie. I found it really funny. Kamal Hassan was just awesome in this movie. I think Kamal is one of the best actors in cinema history. I wish he had done some Hollywood movies too.I am of Indian origin. So, I do watch a lot of Hindi movies too. I have seen a couple of Hindi movies of Kamal's and he was really good in them as well.I am trying to get my hands on his other movies like Nayagan, Kurudhipunal, Guna, Mahanadhi and Anbe Sivam. Michael Madana Kama Rajan has definitely got to be one of the best performances of Kamal Hassan's in his long career. Right now, I am waiting for his Vettiyaidu Vilaiayadu. Is it going to be released in the UK, I wonder. I hear it's coming out on Tamil new year but it's so hard to find any information about the UK release dates or whether it's going to be released here or not. If anybody can shed any light on this I'd be grateful...

The story of the four children getting separated is quickly dispensed with to get to the meat of the story. How they get back together? Probably the funniest Tamil movie ever made. ''Bhim boy Bhim boy'' and ''Nanum rowdy aakum ketala" went to become its tag lines. Kamal should have perhaps take care to market this movie better. Still a good DVD with interviews of actors could be done to preserve this timeless classic. Dialogue writer Crazy Mohan, a veteran writer of Tamil plays, went on create his inimitable style with this movie. Quick, razor sharp jokes that are packed so close together that it takes repeated viewing to catch the entire action. The movie ends in a ridiculous climax where Singeetham makes ironical fun of the family coming together movies of yesteryear's. Must watch for comedy lovers.

Should be among the greatest comedy movies in any language, from anywhere in the world. Immaculate dialogues, brilliant acting from Kamal Hassan (I feel he does his best in comedy roles), good music score, and around three hours of wholesome entertainment.The story is about a woman giving birth to identical quadruplets who are separated at birth. Later in life each of them tries to play another for monetary benefits. All this with confused lovers singing duets with the wrong people!I am not sure if the movie would have as much effect with subtitles (not so much of a slapstick), but a must watch for anyone interested in Tamil movies.
