* [[Anti-Villain]]: Possibly Malli, probably a Type III on the [[Sliding Scale of Anti-Villains]].
* [[Your Terrorists Are Our Freedom Fighters]]: The LTTE in the film and [[Real Life]], according to many Sri Lankan Tamils.
* [[Well-Intentioned Extremist]]: Again, depending on your perspective, this may be Malli and the LTTE in general, using evil methods in a (possibly) good cause.
