Directed by K.S. Ravikumar Produced by Oscar Ravichandran
Written by Kamal Haasan Music by Himesh Reshammiya Actors and Actress
Kamal Haasan, Asin Thottumkal, Mallika Sherawat, Jayaprada, Napolean, Santhana Bharathi, M. S. Baskar, Nagesh .Kamal Haasan played ten different roles in Dasavatharam.

Lord Krishna: Kamal Haasan plays a dark-skinned Vincent Poovaraghavan, a Dalit, who fights for a cause. Lord Krishna is actually a dalit, he is dark-skinned (Shyamalan). He saved Draupadi when she was being insulted by Duryodhana.Vincent appears when Asin is about to be molested and saves her. Vincent is the Dalit diplomat, fights for land issue and dies when a metal rod strikes his leg.

Lord Balarama: Kamal Haasan essays the role of Lord Balarama Naidu, an official with RAW. As the name suggests and the role personifies, one can easily see the connection.

Lord Mathsya: Rangaraja Nambi is thrown into the sea along with the Diety of Lord Narayana.

Lord Varaha: Kamal Haasan plays Krishnaveni Paatti and during the mukunda mukunda song, she depicts Varaha avatar through shadow puppetry.

The frame freezes on it for a second. there is the clue.

Lord Vamana: Kalifulla Khan, the tall Muslim youth, played by Kamal Haasan reminds one of Vamana avatar. Lord Vishnu assumes a giant form in the avatar.

Lord Parasurama: Fletcher reminds one of Lord Parasurama, who goes on a killing spree, and slayed 21 generations of a particular kshatriya vamsa. Fletcher goes around with a gun killing everyone around.

Lord Narasimha: The Japanese martial artist Shingen Narahashi. Doesn’t the name Shingen Narahashi sound similar to Singam Narasimha? The words singam (meaning lion in Tamil) and Narasimha (the avatar being symbolised). Lord Narasimha uses his hands to destroy Hiranyakashipu.If we look for a connection, even martial arts exponents fight with bare hands.

Lord Rama: Avatar Singh. Lord Rama stands for the one man, one woman maxim, kind of symbolising true love. Here Avatar Singh portrays that spirit by saying that he loves his woman more than anything and wants to live for her.

Lord Kalki: Govindaraj Ramasamy, the main hero of the story which happens in the present Yuga. As everyone knows, the saviour in Kaliyug can be none other than the Kalki avatar.

Lord Koorma: Obviously George Bush. This is the most loose adaptation. But if one looks at the koorma avatar, the Lord is the turtle that helps in stirring the ksheera sagara and bringing out the amruth. This essentially creates war among the devas and asuras.
