In a unique blend of classical mythology and contemporary storytelling, Kamal Haasan has taken inspiration from the ancient Indian epic, Mahabharata, for his character in the acclaimed movie “Vishwaroopam.” The versatile actor and filmmaker has often been lauded for his ability to seamlessly merge traditional elements with modern narratives, and this film is no exception.
The character played by Kamal Haasan in “Vishwaroopam” bears striking similarities to Arjuna from the Mahabharata. In the epic, Arjuna, one of the Pandava brothers, adopts the guise of a eunuch dance teacher, Brihannala, during the Virata Parva, the fourth book of the Mahabharata. Kamal Haasan’s character, an Indian intelligence officer based in the United States, adopts a similar disguise to infiltrate a terrorist organization. This clever nod to classical literature adds depth and intrigue to the storyline.
“Vishwaroopam” weaves together action, drama, and mythology, creating a cinematic experience that resonates with both contemporary audiences and those with an appreciation for India’s rich cultural heritage. Kamal Haasan’s dedication to his craft and his unique approach to storytelling continue to set him apart in the film industry.
By integrating elements from the Mahabharata, Kamal Haasan not only pays homage to one of India’s greatest epics but also showcases the timeless relevance of these ancient tales. “Vishwaroopam” serves as a testament to the enduring power of storytelling and the innovative spirit of one of India’s most celebrated actors.
