TEN FILMS THAT WERE WAY AHEAD OF ITS TIME

Every Kamal Hassan film post-Thevar Magan is criminally unappreciated in its time, with a few exceptions like Vasool Raja M.B.B.S. Hey Ram appears to be the most important addition to that list as the film deal the genre of historical fiction way before it became popular. The film also packs great ensemble performances with a timeless soundtrack from Ilayaraja. The film’s depiction of the Partition riots is too chilling for the standards of Indian cinema.
