Hey Ram (2000)
'An experiment with truth' was the tagline of this movie, and Kamal Haasan, playing different roles, made sure he had an enchanting story to present.
The movie showed Kamal as a dying Saket Ram who reminisces about his life as a young archeologist (Kamal again) who lived a life of luxury during the British Raj.
While Hey Ram's heavy themes and complicated storyline made it fail commercially, no one was left in any doubt about Kamal's talents as a storyteller or actor.
