Director Nag Ashwin choose to tell the story of Savitri - the person. He has relied mostly on the life story available in books. However, he focused more on the drama between Savitri and Gemini Ganeshan, the marital life, less focused on her films. Since everybody knows what a great performer she is, he unveiled the drama of her life, what a genuine person she was.

Nag Ashwins latest film Mahanati, a biopic on Savitri, too sets out to find the truth about the legendary actress life, but what we get in the end is a film that is dense in its storytelling, but also leaves you craving for more drama. In an attempt to explore the persona behind the moniker Mahanati, the film merely reiterates the legend which has been passed on for generations altogether, without adding anything to make for a rousing cinematic experience.

The very idea of Savitris biopic is exciting for two reasons - she was such a legend and never before has the story of a famed actor been told onscreen in southern cinema. For any biopic, it`s important for the director to find actors who resemble the characters they play on screen. Director Nag Ashwin has pulled off a casting coup of sorts and given us a case study of the prolific actor.
