About Kamal Haasan
Moondram Pirai from 1982 gives the early high as a teacher guarding an amnesiac woman. Nayakan from 1987 follows with the Bombay don epic that made Time lists and won him a National Award. Thevar Magan from 1992 brings the village chieftain tragedy he wrote, and Indian from 1996 doubles him as father and vigilante son.
Hey Ram from 2000 is the self directed partition epic, his riskiest personal work. Anbe Sivam from 2003 pairs him with Madhavan on a road trip about kindness. Vishwaroopam from 2013 returns to spy craft he wrote and directed, and Vikram from 2022 closes this run by reviving his agent for a franchise turn.
Good to know
The roles share nothing but the actor, so release order shows the range building best. Start with Nayakan for the landmark, then Thevar Magan for the writing peak. Hey Ram runs over three hours and asks for patience. Anbe Sivam plays lighter and pairs well after the two epics. Vikram assumes no prior films, so newcomers can start there too.
