from the beginning itself it is evident that the film has many allusions to the bible. if not for many other characters, the character of solomon played by mohanlal has the greatest amount of allusions to the bible. the name solomon itself is derived from the bible where solomon is one of the kings who ruled the united israel. in the film, the character solomon is a social chameleon as such. the bible gives sufficient information that the king was very wealthy just like the character in the film. in the bible it is stated that solomon had many relationships with women, resulting in having 700 wives and 300 concubines, the film hints the character's possible skirt chasing proclivities. in the movie, we see the character of solomon is in possession of vast acres of vineyards which he looks after and prospers. the book's female character is a working woman, in the film the character sophia does all the chores in the house and is a hard worker. in the biblical book, the character is dark skinned, so is the actress. furthermore, in legends the queen of sheba was a strong and independent woman who professed her interest in king solomon and had respect and appreciation of him as well. in the film, sophia who was bold and having openly acknowledged her interest in solomon is equally respected by him. the strong romantic overture of the book is adapted in the film effusively. however, the book in the bible does not accommodate any rape culture but the idea is not foreign to the bible, like the case of tamar and her step-brother amnon, both from king solomon's family in 2 samuel 13. paul, the step-father in the film is a detestable figure as amnon.
