• "The film was based" -don't we use present tense for films? It is a lost film though so I guess..
• "invest on the production house" -on?
• "However, some of Nataraja Mudaliar's relatives objected to it for they felt that it was not a proper story for his debut venture.[1] But " -never good to have However and but following each other
• "The production for the film cost ₹35,000,[a] which was then considered high, revealing Nataraja Mudaliar's inexperience in filmmaking.[1]" -not sure how that reveals his inexperience, you mean that he wouldn't haven known how much filmmaking would cost? Seems a bit OR, is that in the source?
• "Later a difference of opinion arose between him and his investors." -vague, can you elaborate?

@Dr. Blofeld: Resolved all your comments.  — Ssven2 ^{Speak 2 me} 05:44, 6 April 2016 (UTC)

Passerby comment

I noticed this article was listed on WP:GOCE/REQ and I've got one idea as to something that could be reworded (I don't think I would be able to copyedit to a high enough standard to do the full article):

• In 1923, the death of his son in a fire which also burned his entire studio led Nataraja Mudaliar to retire from filmmaking. I think this'd work better if it were written as Nataraja Mudaliar retired from filmmaking in 1923 as a result of a fire that killed his son and burned his studio. or In 1923, a fire resulted in the death of his son and the destruction of his studio. Nataraja Mudaliar subsequently retired.

Hope this helps. Anarchyte (work | talk) 11:52, 3 February 2018 (UTC)

Thank you for the suggestion. I have gone with the Nataraja Mudaliar retired from sentence. ----Kailash29792 (talk) 12:15, 3 February 2018 (UTC)

"Historical films"

Is it accurate to refer to this as a "historical film?" Most secular historians do not regard the Mahabharata as part of history. Brutannica (talk) 21:46, 16 September 2021 (UTC)

Replaced with "films based on Hindu mythology". Kailash29792 (talk) 04:03, 17 September 2021 (UTC)
