Kamal-Mohanlal: Healthy competition

The vast spaces of the cine sky has room for any number of stars – big and small – to twinkle away. Yet these stars are forever trying to outshine one another and grab more attention. What happens when two dazzling stars come face-to-face? Do they burn each other out? What happens when Mohanlal takes on Kamal Haasan head-on? Healthy competition!

“Absolutely,” asserts Kamal. Adding, “Every actor is in competition, whether he is in the same film or not. Whenever I watch a good movie of Mohanlal’s, I am spurred on to do a better one. He feels the same way when he watches a good movie of mine. There is competition but we channel it such that it encourages the other person. If the competition is negative in nature, the outcome will not be constructive.├п┬┐┬╜Gravity will drag us down and keep us there. To get up and fly, we need to motivate each other. The concept of destroying your enemy completely is a concept that does not exist in modern day warfare. When it is a non-existent concept in the art of modern day war, how can it be there in the field of art, in which enemies don’t exist?” Food for thought?
