Dasavatharam Analysis on Characters

An analysis linking the 10 avatars/incarnations of Mahavishnu and the characters Kamal played. Each role he took is a representation of the 10 avatars of Maha Vishnu.

1. Mathsya avatar (Lord takes the avatar as a fish to save the vedas(God in the form of knowledge) - Ranagaraja Nambi Nnambi is thrown into water in an act of trying to save lord from being thrown into sea, though vainly.

2. Koorma avatar - Bush This is the most loose adaptation I couldn't clearly comprehend. But if you look at the real Koorma avatar, the lord is the turtle/tortoise that helps in stirring the Ksheera Ssagara and bringing out the amruth. This essentially creates war among the devas and asuras.

Similarly today Bush facilitates war between you know whom... May be Kamal also indicates that this avatar is a bit dumb like the tortoise...

3. Varaha avatar - Krishnaveni Paatti. During the Mukunda song, Krishnaveni Paatti does Varaha avatar in the shadow puppetry. The frame freezes on it for a second. there is the clue. Moreover, in varaha avatar lord actually hides earth so as to protect life forms. Here too Krishnaveni hides the germs - life form inside the statue so as to protect.

4. Narasimha avatar - Shingen Narahashi first of all the name itself is a play on the words Singam [means lion in Tamil] and Narasimha [the avatar being symbolised]. LordNarasimha manifests himelf to kill the bad guy and he also teaches Prahaladha. In the movie, he shows up to kill the killer Fletcher! and is also a teacher.. Lord Narasimha had to kill the Asura with bare
hands and hence the martial arts exponent here.. get it?

5. Vamana avatar - Kalifulla Khan remember in Vamana avatar, lord Vishnu takes the Vishvaroopa, that is the giant form! Hence the giant Kalifulla here symbolizes Vamana avatar.

6. Parasurama avatar - Christian Fletcher. Parasurama is actually on an angry killing spree and killed 21 generations of the particular kshatriya vamsa(warrior caste). Hence the real KILLER... That is who Fletcher is! He comes around with the gun [modern upgrade for axe] and kills everyone around.

7. Rama avatar - Avatar Singh Lord Rama stands for the one man one woman maxim, his love for Sita, kind of symbolising true love.. Here Avatar portrays that spirit by saying that he loves his woman more than anything and wants to live for her.

8. Krishna avatar - Vincent Poovaraghavan Lord Krishna is actually a Dalit, he is dark-skinned (Shyamalam)]. He saved Draupadi when she was being violated and he was the actual diplomat in Mahabharatham. Lord Krishna dies of an arrow striking his lower leg. Now look at how Vincent was introduced. He appears when Asin is about to be molested and he saves her like Draupadi.
Vincent is the dalit( a term used to address the low-caste community in India
) diplomat, fights for land issue [soil issue to be exact] and dies from the metal rod striking his leg. Oh even five of Vincent's men are drugged at P. Vasu's.. sounds familiar???

9. Balarama avatar - Balarama Naidu This is an easy given. As the name suggests and the role personifies you can easily get it.

10. Kalki avatar - Govindaraj Ramasamy As you know, the hero in kaliyuga(the current age we are in) can be none other than the Kalki avatar!!!

Some of you would feel that some characters are unnecessary but when u link with the above, even Balarama avatar in the scriptures did not play a major role. The idea here is to focus on some characters and the others as supporting roles. Perhaps with the analysis above we can understand the link between the characters and how they well-represent each avatar.

P.S. Some of you out there are just not brilliant enough to understand and to appreciate a genius work. Its because you don't understand that you give up and criticising. This happened when HeyRam was released. Many idiots didn't understand the story, therefore couldn't appreciate and start criticising. Please do not comment on an artist's brilliance when you don't have the capacity to understand it. Thank you! And please don't say that K.S Ravikumar's Padaiyappa or the previous hit Sivaji was much better! Thanks again.
