Why comedians have a strong script?
August 14, 2009

Kolam, a new initiative to release films in DVD format by collecting money from the audience prior to the filming, was kick started at the South Indian Film Chamber of Commerce yesterday (August 13th).

Speaking at the event, director Mahendran said that films these days do not have a strong storyline making it painful to watch. The director, however, showered accolades on the performances of comedians in Kollywood. He wondered how the comedy scripts turn out to be so good when the over all scripts are so bad. Mahendran added that Charlie Chaplin is the only Hollywood comedian who carved niche for himself and none of the others who came in after him could make it big.

Director Balu Mahendra opined that all schools must include a subject on films in their curriculum. This will help children to prefer films that have substance. He added that the cost of including this subject in the curriculum will be much lesser because it needs just a television set and a DVD player.

Veteran director K Balachander’s was a short and sweet speech in which he said that he preferred dramas and would like to stay away from film making.
