4. Kamal in Movie Devar Magan

Devar Magan is a masterpiece of its own. It is a complete hard, core village story directed by Mr. Bharathan. Kamal Hasan plays the role of Sakthivel thevar, a well-learned and modern young man who visits his village after completing his studies in the city. 

Though with a modern outlook, he turns into a complete village person after the demise of his father, Periya Thevar – the role played by the legendary Shivaji Ganesan. 

The white dhoti work by Kamal shows the pride of the family, the wise thoughts and brave actions of Sakthivel devar. The character was the talk of town mainly for the get-up and look of Kamal Hasan in the movie. Kamal Hasan in dhoti has done justice to the character. 

At any time, if you close your eyes and think about devar magan, the first image that flashes would be the scene where kamal walks in white and white dhoti style.

Sathyaraj is known for his dialect, slang, and height. We have seen him as a lover-boy, villain, and superhero.

Sathyaraj gets the perfect look of a politician with the white and white dhoti and different makeup. His height just complimented the veshti well, and he just looked like any other politician in the town.

 Veshti is the perfect attire for politicians, and Sathyaraj nailed the role.

As the Head of the Village, he always wears a Veshti and Shirt and a white towel on his shoulders. Rajini looks astonishing in any costume, but in Veshti, he looks like a chief head. 

Our minds automatically accept him as the head of the town, and the respect for Rajini and his character grew a leap. That is the kind of effect the costume does for the role.
