I've noticed that the Indian superstars are really a class apart in this, I can see these select few are at that level due to these certain intangibles that have won over the audience, its an trait I don't see in even the biggest of Hollywood actors. Especially the village role, was a terrific and moving performance, he has a huge screen presence and powerful flair about him. And throughout the film, it was too easy to see why: spectacular performances as 3 different people, and he nailed them all. It's crazy I hadn't seen a film by Vijay yet but I got chills seeing how much the audience loved him. As soon as the film started, the audience whistled and cheered at just his name appearing on the screen! And then when he first appears in the film, the audience was overjoyed and so many cheers, I've never been among a crowd like that. And that the actor, Vijay, is an enormous superstar in the Tamil state who the people really adore. I was told a couple things about this film before going in- it is a huge "mass masala" so it fuses many different genres together. Vijay can dance really well) but the film got those out of the way early. I'll be frank I wasn't fond of the really random dance sequences (as an American they're a bit too random for me, though Mr. I went to this film after a colleague recommended it. The rolling titles appear in the center in the Indian version while they appear on the right in the International version in which the music ends much later. Also, the Indian version has a quotation in Tamil and English stating "Every individual in their assumed specific responsibilities has to discharge his/her duty properly" which doesn't exist in the international version. Plus, the director's title card in the Indian version is shown against a black background while the international version shows it against a glowing background. The scenes showing animals have been deleted and replaced with other visuals in the Indian version while they exist uncut in the international version. There are also some changes in background music in certain sequences. Similarly, the Indian version shows a crystal ball-like object in the restaurant fight while the international version shows a dove instead. In the Indian version, the shot in which an arm of a villain is severed during a fight shows the gory part blurred while in the international version the scene is shown without any blurring.
