MAVERICK MYSSKIN - THURSDAY TRIVIA
Nov 25, 2010
Director Mysskin needs no introduction. In his short career in Kollywood, he has proved to be an astute film-maker. With two films to his credit, Mysskin weaved practicality with imagination to wow the audience. An avid book reader, he ensures that the movie he makes is hard-hitting and makes an impact on the viewer. We would see a few interesting facts about Mysskin in this week's trivia.

• Mysskin's real name is Raja. He changed his name to Mysskin after being mightily impressed with the character Prince Lev Nikolayevich Myshkin from a Russian Novel.

• It is a no surprise that he has a collection of thousands of books, which include novels and biographies, in his house.

• He insists that his assistant directors must have knowledge about books and novels as he feels that the subtle emotions in human characters are best described in novels.

• He is regarded as one of the greatest script-writers by critics already in his two-film career.

• Mysskin and even numbers seem to have a bond. His two earlier movies, Chithiram Pesuthadi and Anjathey, were released in 2006 and 2008 respectively. His next movie, though completed a long time back, is getting released in 2010.

• He is making a movie in Bollywood with John Abhraham which is also an inspiration from a novel 'The Man from Pakistan'. This is touted to be a thriller and is shaping up at a rapid pace.

With his movie releasing this weekend, all eyes are on Mysskin and Nandalala.
