Dashavataram's 10 avatars
FILM ANALYSIS
Posted on 17 JUL 2008
(NOTE: These illustrations are not meant to romanticize the actor or to offend any religion.)
There are many similarities between Lord Maha Vishnu's ten avatars and the roles played by Mr. Kamal Hasan in the Dashavataram movie. Let's know how it is...
AMERICAN PRESIDENT BUSH
In real Koorma Avatar (The tortoise), Lord Mahavishnu helps in stirring the Ksheera Sagara and bringing out the Amruth(Elixir). This essentially created war among the Suras and Asuras. Similarly today Bush is reportedly facilitating war between countries. May be Kamal meant that this avatar is a bit dumb like the tortoise..!
______
COMEDIAN COP
Balarama is a humorous, bigoted, low-aimed and offensive. Moreover, Balram Nadar's name personifies it.______
INSANE GRAND WOMAN
In Varaha avatar, Lord actually hides earth so as to protect life forms. Here too Krishnaveni hides the germs inside the statue. See the shadow puppetry in the Mukunda song, the frame freezes on for a second when she does Varaha avatar.______
7 FEET MUSLIM YOUTH
Remember in Vamana avatar, Lord Vishnu takes the Vishwa Roopa, that is the giant form! Hence the giant Kalifullah here symbolizes Vamana avatar. The bigoted Balaram Nadar addresses him as "Bin LADDER".______
SIKH POP SINGER
The motto of Lord Rama is "One word- One wife", kind of symbolizing values, true love.. Here, Avatar Singh portrays that spirit. Despite his ill-health, he agrees to do the pop concert only due to his promise given to the organizers. He says that he loves his wife more than anything, lives for her. He is want to die for his duty- Singing. Yes. AVATAR SINGS...________
JAPANESE MARTIAL FIGHTER
Narasimha Swamy was aggressive. Shingen Narahasi is the same. Narasimha manifests himself to kill an immoral guy and also teaches Prahaladha. In the movie, he kills Flecher, showing it to Govind. Lord Narasimha used bare hands and here the martial arts exponent. And one more hint is the character's name itself. Swapping the words in his name, it sounds close to Narasimha and 'Singam', in Tamil, means Lion.
________
DALIT DIPLOMAT
Punyakoti is dark-skinned as Srikrishna, who was the actual diplomat in Mahabharata. Now look at how vincent was introduced.. he appears when Laxmi(Asin) is about to be molested and he saves her like Draupadi. Lord Krishna dies of an arrow striking his lower leg. Punyakoti also fights for the land issues, soil issues to be accurate, and dies from the metal rod striking his leg. Also, five of Vincent’s men are drugged at the politician's house. This seems closer to the Pandavas...

____________
AMERICAN TERRORIST KILLER
Parasurama is actually on an angry killing spree and killed 21 generations of the particular kshatriya vamsa. Fletcher killed whoever was against his mission. The gun in the hands of Flecher is modern up-gradation for 'axe' and kills everyone around. Flecher was just being loyal to the person above him, as Parasurama was.
