Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
Daas emerged during a wave of Tamil cinema explicitly confronting caste violence, following films like Kadhal (2004) that treated honor killings with similar unflinching brutality.
The title 'Daas' (slave) refers not just to Antony's name but to the film's thesis: caste makes slaves of everyone, including those who wield its power.
