Anecdotes
The famous 3D fighting scene in the car junkyard originally involved Anil Kapoor being dripped in water. He was also gym training for 7 months for this scene. At the time of the shoot, he refused to shave his body hair, and finally it was planned to smear him in mud. It was the first action scene in Indian Cinema to employ the use of computer effects and 36 different cameras were used simultaneously for a single scene. When Anil Kapoor stated that he was not really comfortable with facing the camera with his shirt off, Shankar replied that the scene was very crucial for the story and he can change the hero but not the scene.

Gaffes
The final closing scene is supposed to show Mumbai being transformed into a modern city. While the first frame shows the Dharavi slums of Mumbai, the next morphed frame shows an existing American city. To add to this, the helicopter shown has an American registration.

Citations
Bansal: This is not a paid crowd, not lured with chicken-and-booze. Not the ones laden on trucks. They're here because they want to. Because they believe. This is a good man, a good leader. He will give us a good future, he will give us good governance. Ask any man, and he will say he wants to become a doctor, a civil servant, but no man wants to become a leader. Ask them. Everyone shuns politics, because it's filth, but no one's willing to clean it up. They leave the country in the hands of old hyenas who don't even have time to live. In this country, every man aspires for a 20,000-buck job, right? And a pretty girl to marry. Come time to retire you expect to save up enough to buy half an acre of land in the suburbs. To build a 700 square feet house. Painted yellow, and a garden to recline in the sun, while reading newspapers and tell your wife "Darling, politics is ruining this country". You have no right to blame a politician. Had Mahatma Gandhi cozied up at home with his wife and kids, you would've been cleaning latrines in some Englishman's house. Had Thomas Alva Edison not left home, would we have electricity? Had Graham Bell thought like you, would we be using telephones? Even the silkworm, before it dies uses its spit to weave silk to be remembered by. And we are humans.

Excellent

This is a remake of Shankar's own south film Madhalvan in Hindi. The south Whizz kid director has made an awesome spectacle of a film with Nayak.

It is a definite must see. Rahman's music is superb, 'shaka laka baby!' to say the least. This film contains superior special effects and CGI for it's time, unlike others who have no sense of using CGI effectively and non garishly, Shankar has created beautiful sequences for the songs. The cinematography is breathtaking, a joy to the eye. The South influence is very imminent, that is what makes this film so good along with a bravura performance from Anil Kapoor and the sensuous Rani Mukerjee although underused only adds to the films beauty.
