Pushpak: How do you make people laugh without uttering a single word? Chaplin, Keaton, a bunch of others of the silent era did. Half a decade later, Kamal Haasan and his motley group of dreamers did.
Simla Special: It is a very Kamal Haasan thing that one of his most underrated comedies is known more for a pathos song. But this film about the comedy theatre industry truly deserves more loveMichael Madana Kamarajan: This is the stuff of legends. Every dialogue, every gag, every character, every small tic finds itself in the Tamil cinema pop culture's hall of fame. Catch my point?Maharasan: A very unlikely Kamal Haasan comedy that joins the list of films where he aced Madras baashai in a way only he can. The film wasn't a hit, but the comedy clips continue to make TV roundsSingaravelan: Kamal once said he wasn't exactly happy doing this project.

But again, the Tamil remake was in the safe hands of Crazy Mohan-KamalMumbai Express: Kamal Haasan was a pioneer when it came to content and technology in Tamil Cinema. While the content part did revolutionise the industry, the content didn't make that big of an impactManmadhan Anbu: In some ways wasn't this a reverse Sathileelavathi with Kamal playing the lead instead of an extended cameo. Well, one of those rare Kamal comedies that didn't receive enough laughs
