In a pure art filmography, all characters should be shuffled in a single or multiple thematic lines of a story.So in this case morality of the characters may judge by some valuable arguments of the concept.Anbe sivam also deals with these type of storytelling devices and leads to ambiguous moral selections.It has its own way of narration and brilliant writing.Usually, Kamal Haasan likes to deals with post-modernistic elements in his works.Anbe sivam contains the characters who are judge people by their appearances.The film wants to sketch "Appearance can be deceptive".So it travels through the dual-thematic line, they are appearance and nature.In this movie, every character deals with another one with respect to appearance and personality types.
Let us consider the first scene of the movie, it shows Madhavan's misjudgment of Kamal's nature.He watches his actions and appearance and decides kamal as a terrorist.It shows true personality but without the matching of look.In this moment audience receives the information of "Unreliable appearance".So this case stands for "False appearance".
In the flashback portion, we see Naasar who believes himself as an innocent and believes God will take care of him if he prays.He doesn't want to use God's name only for manipulations, he really believes in God.And he stands for "False personality".This character shows the uncertainty of personality type.It symbolizes the unworthiness of god.These two sequels convey the mistaken appearance and personality.
And the third case is in the form of "False appearance and personality".This character who is thief exhibits how people are untrustful in both themes.As a writer, Kamal used him to express his own political thoughts.Especially this scene,"Kadhar sattai pottavellaam thiyaagiya? Coat suit potta yogiyana?"(English: Will a man wearing a suit and tie be a gentleman by a default?will a man wearing homespun cotton be a freedom fighter?).It represents Gandhi and Ambedkar. The movie speaks about communism but these leaders are capitalists.So the writer opposes the moral of these people.Gandhi believes that communism had a strong sense of selfishness.These 3 objectives express the nature of characters and who is reliable and unreliable.When it comes to Balasaraswathy she judges kamal by his thoughts.And later she apologizes.In this case, Kamal didn't stand for false appearance or personality, then what influenced her to apologize?. She realizes her mistake of the impression.In this place moral judgment places in the region of the impression.

The movie deeply concentrates to show the appearance of the god.And it has metaphorical characters to presents it on screen.The dog and Naasar are the two important symbols of God's nature.The dog named Sankaran which means Lord Siva.The dog represents love in the movie and later sivam tells that,"Dog-a thiruppi potta God varuthu!(Dog written backward becomes God)" .So hiddenly conveys that "Love is God".And the mother character shows the "True appearance and true personality".She is one who helps to sivam to overcome his redemption from past.And portraits "Appearances can be deceptive" and no need to take it as "Appearances are deceptive".
Name sequence of the character is very meaningful because Kamal's name is "Nalla-Sivam" which means "Lord Siva", and Madhavan named as "Anbarasu" which shows love.But he doesn't want to add the "anbu".Sivam also does not trust in God.So the characters named by opposite metaphors.Finally, conveys the theme of the movie "Love is God".There is a lot of metaphors in every frame and the movie strongly represents love.Kamal's appearance crafted for showing both negative and positive terms.Which tells that, appearances are temporary and unreliable and Love is permanent.It can decide the humanity of a person.And it should be the only factor to judge oneself.
