Cannibalism in 'Naan Kadavul'?

Naan Kadavaul Gallery

The last schedule of director Bala’s ‘Naan Kadavul’ is taking place in Kasi. The first schedule too was held here in a set that was erected at the cost of some lakhs. The insiders inform that Bala did not insist the same kind of sets be recreated and that he settled for different locations.

The entire team, including hero Arya, would be quite relieved that the intense journey for the film is about to come to an end. The team is very happy about the outcome of the movie.

‘Naan Kadavul’, which has triggered more controversies than any other films in the recent times, is now in the eye of a new controversy at the time of its completion. It is about a disgusting scene in the climax. It is said that Arya eats human flesh from a dead body in the climax. It is also said that the scene was objected by the producers and that Bala had accepted to consider changing it.

Bala is a kind of director, who never gives up when it comes to changing his story. He is known for shocking portrayals that tend to defy the public sentiments or the set norms of Kollywood. In ‘Sethu’, he sends back the hero to the mental asylum and in ‘Pithamagan’, the film opens in a grave yard - much against Tamil cinema’s sentiment – and at the end, Vikram is beaten up by Sangeetha by broom stick.

So, one wonders if Bala would accept to change such a scene, if it is required for his story. As of now, it is for sure that we cannot be sure of anything.
