Five years ago, the idea of Lokesh Kanagaraj helming a more impactful Kamal Haasan film than industry stalwarts Shankar or Mani Ratnam would have seemed far-fetched. Yet, with the resounding success of Vikram, that reality has materialized, a Netizen named Insplag opined. As per the cinephile, while not reaching the classic status of Nayakudu or Bharateeyudu, Vikram undeniably brought Kamal Haasan back into the mainstream consciousness, making him accessible to a generation of moviegoers after a considerable hiatus.

However, a closer look at the aftermath suggests that Vikram might be a double-edged sword for Kamal Haasan. Netizens observe a shift in his cinematic choices, with a perceived emphasis on commercial viability and box office success over the unique, artistic ventures that once defined his filmography.

In other words, the very film (read Vikram) that resurrected Kamal Haasan’s mainstream appeal now seems to have pushed him towards a path focused more on financial returns and big hits, potentially at the cost of the distinctive cinema he was once celebrated for. Only time will tell if this new trajectory truly benefits the multifaceted artist that is Kamal Haasan.
