In Mahabharatham, Dhuryodhan, Karnan and associates abused Dhraupathi in public. By naming the key roles in this movie after these immoral characters, not sure what the director is trying to achieve but more than insulting the oppressed society which is already facing enormous social challenges. If the director really wanted to provide princely names, he had several choices in Raja Raja Cholan, Rajendra Cholan, Karikalan, etc., highly revered Tamil kings.
By naming the negative police character as Kannabhiran, director makes it clear that his true objective is nothing to do with oppressed society but simply to inflict an anti-hindu propaganda, insulting so many Hindu followers as well.
After his fantastic first move Pariyerum Perumal, I had high hopes of Mari Selvaraj, but he has completely let me down with this cheap trick and low moral attitude.
