Ungalai ellam paartha........
Perhaps this is one of the most delayed discussion or post in this topic. To begin with a humble bow to all the predecesors who dealt with the same phenomenon. It shouldn't be hard to surmise what I am about to write here as the title has it - "kaipulla".
Ain't I said 'phenomenon' somewhere in the earlier passage? True! the character is a thing in itself; something exceptional. Though I have heard enough about the role played by comedian Vadivelu in the film "Winner", in the past three years, I just happened to watch it and fell in love with it. It impressed me to such an extent that I began writing something I feel about him.
Before proceeding further I must admit that I haven't seen the film till date and to be honest I don't wish to. Neither this post analyzes the on screen activity of the character. Rather this is merely an attempt to study the mind behind this personality.
By the way who is he? A jobless, aimless, illiterate, coward, dimwitted, weak villager (youngster?). Simply, he possess all the essentials to be called a LOSE...Er...before I complete I am just reminded of something. He is the president of 'Varuthapadatha Valibar Sangam'. No big deal...isn't it? Just hold on. This makes him the unique. He may look careless, however he is carefree. Never worried for anything how big it is. Always true to himself and bold enough to openly declare his inability. Man! wish I could be like him one day and enjoy the complete liberation from the day to day worries.
Afterall his philosophy is simple, life is too short to be spent worrying. Just ignore your failures and pains and go ahead as you have never stopped by anything. Does this imply he lacks self respect? I may make an error if I affirm. He even wants to taste revenge, but he again takes it simple and not as his lifetime ambition. Is he just a show-off? Could be. But who's on this earth not a show-off? Everyone wants to show off something. Reiterating: For another time he is not taking this over his head. STOP!
A simple man with simple desires and ventures to have fun in everything trying to enjoy every moment of his life. He never shrugged his shoulder nor drooped his head. An old saying goes something like this- "There are only two persons in this earth who never worry in their life: A child and a philosopher". Kaipulla is certainly not a child. Though I am uncertain of the other alternatives, I can finally say a word about him with confidence. He is sure a winner!
