Kamal's Inspiration

Everyone knows Kamal's liking towards foreign Movies and Novels. Even some say his style of action has some resemblens with Dustin Hoffmann's. Just see some of the inspired Kamal movies from Hollywood and foreign Novels.

I got this information from my friend, an ardent Kamal Fan. I don't know whether the following informations are correct but very interesting. I have seen Mrs.Doubtfire. Surely Aavai Shanmughi has some inspiration from it. Also Kuridhi Punal is an exact remake of Govind Nihlani's Drooh Kaal.
