Kamal Haasan Instagram – Reposted from @rkfioffl Part – 7 Unforgettable moments: Most unforgettable was the first sequence where in I had come up with a lot of the designs as the others didn’t know how to visualise or present it but I already had lessons out of experience from Maruthanayagam and taking notes from on not over building anything unrealistically but keep it believable. For example the two guards standing on either sides of the elephant was designed by me. It was novel for us , but done in history where in the body Guards would protect the king while on an elephant. It is basically two footboards on either sides and the elephant actually felt very comfortable with the footboards pressing into it. We wanted to make a masterpiece and we didn’t look at money or fame , just our contribution to the art of cinema. We had various Stunt directors supporting us which can be seen in various styles portrayed through the film as Fletcher’s stunts had to be different from the Samurai and tat from the first and all this within a shoe string budget.
