	Review on Sivaji Ganeshan by knmurli - MouthShut.com
		This epic story of the legendary freedom fighter Veerapandia Kattabomman, reached the entire audience mainly due to an indomitable performance of the legendary Late Shivaji Ganesan.
		The above mentioned dialogue is the conversation between Kattabomman and British Lord while the latter asks the Indian king to pay his taxes.
		This film epitomes a dutiful son’s love for his mother and his motherland, so much that even when chained by his tormentors, he waits for his mother’s order to rebel against his father and cruel stepmother.

		Looking into the history and the condition during the close of 17th century, one has to wonder if Veerapandiya Kattabomman was really a national hero.
		Then your comment about him as selfish (not a real broad minded or national level) is doubtful because no selfish fellow will raise the sword against british army consisting much much higher number of soldiers and death was sure for those who raise the voice against them.
		I agree on one view that 'Kattabomman' was a feudal lord and it was only a war of authority over people and wealth between 'British' and 'Kattabomman.
