More on Mozhi

Here are lines that I feel should reach a lot more people than it would as a simple comment.

Mozhi is one of the talked-about movies these days. I assumed the credit should go to Jothika for her improved performance(True). But the story did not end quite there.
I rely more on blogs for reviews because, they are not corporated (Did it sound like contaminated or corrupted Quite likely).
That’s how I linked to your blog, which made me realise what “Mozhi” has is not glitz but radiance. I want to applaud, TEAM MOZHI, Ability Foundation, and YOU. For bringing it to the notice of people around the world.
Thanks a lot,
I added the movie in my list for Apr 6 2007 in Chennai.
Thanks, Vasundhar, for those kind words. A movie like this comes our way rarely and we ought to celebrate it, and more to the point, support it. Mozhi’s success is a direct attack on the producers’/directors’ excuse for making abusive, stereo-typical movies – “This is what the public wants!” The public has now proved that sensible, well-made movies that provide clean, wholesome comedy will be appreciated.  To make a successful movie, one need not indulge in gory violence, repeated fights and flight scenes,  totally despicable  dance sequences and dialogues that are base and derogatory.
Mozhi vindicates public taste. In a sense, it also shapes public taste by breaking myths about disability. Make a good movie, we will watch it. Don’t take short cuts to make money.
May I compliment you on the wonderful phrase “It is not glitz, but radiance”? I loved that!
