Kamal Haasan is celebrated for his ability to masterfully portray a variety of roles, whether as a hero, villain, comedian, or character artist. Recently, his performance in the film Kalki 2898 AD, directed by Nag Ashwin, left a significant mark even though Prabhas played the lead role. Kamal Haasan’s depiction of the character Supreme Yaskin caught everyone’s attention, especially his final dialogue, which had a profound impact on the audience.
In the film’s climax, Kamal Haasan delivers a powerful line: “Jagannatha Ratha Chakralu Vastunayi..” This line, spoken in his unique voice, energized the theaters. It highlighted the importance of Kamal Haasan’s character within the movie’s universe. Interestingly, this line is taken from a poem by the legendary poet Sri Sri and is specifically from his work Mahaprasthanam. Kamal Haasan’s delivery of this line was so intense that it deeply resonated with the audience. Notably, Kamal Haasan had recited this very line in another film 44 years ago.

Back in 1980, Kamal Haasan starred in Akali Rajyam, directed by the legendary K. Balachander. In this movie, Kamal Haasan played a character who was a devoted fan of Sri Sri. Regardless of the situation—whether dealing with love, hardship, loss, hunger, or depression—Kamal’s character in the film would recite Sri Sri’s poetry. At one memorable point in the movie, Kamal’s character passionately says, “Jagannatha Ratha Chakralu Vastunayi…” Hearing Kamal deliver this dialogue in Kalki 2898 AD evoked the same powerful emotions as it did four decades ago.
