    • Trivia
      'Ragupathi Raghav..' played during the title sequence in the background is a Hindu devotional song but it is sung like a Mosque prayer call.
    • Goofs
      In a scene where the car stops at a railway gate, Kamal's watch goes missing in one of the shots and in the next shot he has a watch.
    • Quotes

      Mythili Iyengar: Is there something on your mind that you're hiding from me?

      Saketh Ram: Yes. No. Maybe.

      Mythili Iyengar: That's a pity. Gandhi ji says hiding anything from others is a big sin.

      Saketh Ram: Hmmm... Then this blouse of yours is a big sinner.

    WOW.. a very powerful film
    I had heard that Kamal Hassan was a good actor, so I decided to check out Hey Ram. I knew nothing of the plot (best way to see a movie; no expectations...) and I must admit I was emotionally overwhelmed by the end of it.

    Kamal Hassan is an amazing actor who is not only passionate about his work but also about his country. And what a pleasure to see Shah Rukh in a minor part.

    Hey Ram is a film that every American actor, writer, and director should study. Few American films have had such an effect on me. I highly recommend it.
