Atma, which is attached to the material body, is of course clouded by desire. My one line story of Mouna Ragam. Though mostly unknown lousy films, KTV does treats me with some decent ones like this.Revathy thru the first half seems to be selfish, rude & heartless person to deal with till our hero enters. If there is one segment in Mouna Raagam that never fails to charm, it is Revathi's flashback that introduces Karthik. While almost every romantic hero in Manirathnam's films since then has had shades of Karthik's Manohar, the character here captivates us even more since it is fresh and original. His "Mr. Chandramouli routine" and his antics in the bus and the library are cute and charming. The role made Karthik probably the first Tamil heartthrob since Kamalhassan and laid the foundation for his then long stay in Kodambakkam. A fun movie to watch. Try and see it for your self sometime.
