People's Artist Tien Dat's Buddha image causes surprise

Participating in the film project released on the occasion of Vu Lan festival , People's Artist Tien Dat surprised viewers when he transformed into the image of Buddha Shakyamuni.

The audience often remembers People's Artist Tien Dat through his villainous and villainous roles. People's Artist Tien Dat surprised everyone when he appeared in the film project Muc Kien Lien saves his mother as Buddha Thich Ca. The artist had to wake up at 2am and spend more than 2 hours in makeup to have a face like Buddha. He was happy to be invited to transform into the image of Buddha.

“In my artistic career, I can count on one hand the number of good roles I have played, and the rest are always negative roles, to the point that it has become my forte and trademark... The role of Buddha, although short, is the pride of my acting career,” People's Artist Tien Dat shared.

The makeup artist explained that he based his makeup on People's Artist Tien Dat's facial features, and had no intention of following a famous model in a Chinese TV series.

Previously, People's Artist Tien Dat was often assigned villain roles on stage and screen with typical personalities of being deceitful, scheming, sinister, and cunning... We can mention the sinister Tony Nguyen in the Criminal Police series, the cunning old man Tong Dai in the play Cat Bui or most recently the "old fox" Tai in the movie Co gai nha nguoi ta...

People's Artist Tien Dat is famous for his "bad" roles.

Actor Viet Bac - who was successful with the role of Red-haired Xuan in the TV series Tro Doi (directed by Nhue Giang) - also surprised everyone when he transformed into the virtuous Maudgalyayana, a supernatural disciple of Buddha.

At first, when Viet Bac was invited to play this role, he was skeptical that he was suitable for the role. To play the role of Muc Kien Lien, actor Viet Bac volunteered to shave his head.

The film Muc Kien Lien saves his mother was produced by artist Tra My as Production Director, directed by Quan Trong Phuc with the participation of People's Artist Tien Dat, People's Artist Nguyen Hai, Meritorious Artist Chi Trung, artists Tra My, Viet Bac, Hiep Vit, Jimmii Khanh, Thu Huyen, Thuy Lien, Khac Dung. Venerable Thich Truong Xuan and Venerable Thich Giac Giao were special guests.

The 40-minute film tells the story of Venerable Maudgalyayana's journey to save his mother, Thanh De. This is a Buddhist story familiar to the Vietnamese people and has now been made into a film.

Artist Tra My said that she had played the role of Maudgalyayana saving her mother many times, so she cherished making a film version. After completing the script, she sent it to Venerable Thich Duc Nguyen - Head of the Executive Committee of the Vietnam Buddhist Sangha in Hoa Binh province, Venerable Thich Truong Xuan - abbot of Lien Tri pagoda (Quoc Oai, Hanoi) to ask for opinions, hoping that each line would be the most accurate, true to Buddhist language.

Playing the role of Mrs. Thanh De, artist Tra My had bruises all over her body and it took her 2 weeks to recover because she “wanted to be beaten and thrown around for real to feel the pain of the character”. There was no studio, the hell scene was built in a jagged cave, artist Tra My and many actors fell and got injured many times.

Meritorious Artist Chi Trung jokingly said that the film about Buddhism only invited comedians to act. “People’s Artist Tien Dat is a great comedian, People’s Artist Nguyen Hai is a former comedian, and I, Viet Bac, Thuy Lien, Thu Huyen, Jimmii Khanh… all act as comedians. On television, we are rarely invited to play political roles. I don’t understand much about Buddhism, and I don’t have the peace of mind to fully embrace Buddhism, so when I was invited to this film, I realized many things,” Meritorious Artist Chi Trung shared.

Maudgalyayana saves his mother tells the story of Thanh De (artist Tra My) who, when alive, did not believe in the Three Jewels, but slandered, destroyed, and said bad things. After her death, she fell into hell. After Venerable Maudgalyayana Bodhisattva (Viet Bac) attained the Arhat fruition and obtained the six supernatural powers, he immediately observed all realms to find his mother. Out of pity for his mother, Venerable Maudgalyayana went to hell and offered a bowl of rice to his mother, but as soon as the rice was brought to his mouth, it turned into a red-hot coal. Maudgalyayana asked for help from Buddha, and was instructed by Buddha to save his mother. On the fifteenth day of the seventh lunar month - the day when Buddhas rejoice, it is also the time when monks perform the Tu Tu ceremony - to hold the Vu Lan Bon ceremony - to perform the "liberation of the island of the mysterious". Feeling grateful for Buddha's grace, Venerable Maudgalyayana encouraged people in the world to hold the Vu Lan ceremony every year on this occasion, make offerings to monks from all directions, and recite the Vu Lan Bon sutra to show filial piety to their parents and their ancestors.
