The eldest in GF is Sonny, a hot-headed, rash person, the equivalent of our AK. And, VD is also there... Tom Hagen, Sonny's friend who becomes the Family consigliere.
In PS, AMV says that he is not interested in ruling the land. Michael is the same in GF, who is forced to play a role as his father is ill and brother has been murdered. namma kathaiye than!
SB sir opines that after AK's death, Sundarar should have made some agreements/adjustments with Sembiyanmadevi and Uththama, about the crown and the next ruler.
konjam yosinga, this is not only for the sake of the throne but also for stability in the country and ultimately for AMV's safety. Remember that famous pact Don makes with the other mafia heads to bring Michael back to US. That famous speech 'I am a superstitious man'.
Thinking of Sundara Chola as Don is a good joke. But I see the correlations but who is the middle son?.
And a comparison between the cholas and the mafia. Now I have seen everything. What about casting a young Al Pacino as AMV?. And a young Michael Douglas as VD (in the lines of Jewel of the Nile)?
Wild may be. But I would die easy with the thought that there is nothing in hell that will frighten me anymore...
