There is one interesting news on Paathukaappu. Among the list of assistant directors, there was one name - Kamalahaasan (original spelling). How's that? He was probably 16 at that time.
NT's best period? As most of us agree, it has to be late 60s early 70s.
His earlier efforts are also great, but they are not as psychologically complex as the characters of these periods (arguable). There are still some flicks that I have not seen during this era. I'd love to do a looooong article on just this period alone.
On saturday (8th July) two NT movies telecast. One in Raj TV and another in KTV
In Raj - Thirsoolam (morning) and in KTV - Deiva Magan (afternoon) . Great acting. 6 different NTs. Thanks to Raj and K Tvs
I would agree if you mention about Deivamagan. Extrordinary acting especially the scene when the 3 characters come acrossQuote:

But I wont blame NT for this... Noone could get the best out of him except Barathi Raja & Kamal

I especially abhor the Irandu Kaikal song sequence. While the filmakers were obviously showing of their horizontal masking technique, the scene is terrible. I mean SITTING ON THE DRIVER'S SHOULDER WHEN HE IS DRIVING!!!!!!???
Anyway, those are very, very few dark spots in NTs acting career. As mentioned earlier, there had been many better performance at that time, like KavariMaan or Thiyagam.
I am currently watching Tangga Churanggam. Just finished 1 1/2 disc (3 VCD discs) and it looks exciting enough. As Murali-sar would put, NT in his action-hero phase. Director Ramanna really updated himself here. But dated though...you have to put yourself at that time to appreciate it. Will finish it tonight. Any background info on this flick will be nice.
What else I have to say balaji? Ive said enough here :D
I LOVE shivaji, idolise him, rever him, respect him.
His prescence in small screen is enough to make my day. Since we keep seeing him thro his movies, the thought tht he is not amongst us now, DOES NOT COME TO ME AT ALL.
Some critical comments about him are
I feel he could have done more of KB's silent action movies.
I feel he could have underplayed some roles too.
I feel he could have STOPPED acting in lead hero roles after 45 years or so (or atleast kept fit to act in those roles)
Sakthi Akka vanakkam !
Now a request to the seniors here .
May I know some finer aspects of NT like :
1.How he used to accept movies - I mean will he ask for the story , his character, others who are part of the movie , before accepting a movie ?
2.How he used to finalize his roles.
3.Did he ever suggest changes/ fine tunings to his role
4.Did he ever think of directing any movie
5.What about his interests on music
6.Did he have any advisor / consultant on getting feedbacks from the public about his position in the industry
7.Did he try to change his approach at any time based on any such market feedbacks
Mr. Murali , Mr. Mohanram & other seniors – you can answer this after completing the political aspects .
vanakkam nakeerna :)
most of them said that Nt should act in KB movies. I make it a point here, most of the KB movies are herione oriented. From Vellivizha to puthu puthu arthangal - one hero and two heroine; Avargal and Manathil Uruthi vendum are same stories. Nirkumizhi and Ethiril Neechal ad bhamma vijayam are more or less drama types.
Unnal Mudiyum Thambi is a remake of Rudra Veena (telugu. 47 Natkal a story of shivashankari, he changed according to his style. In fact, this movie was first taken in Telugu and dubbed in Tamil.
Nenaithale Innikum a beautifyl story by sujatha, KB completely messed up. Can any one tell, from which actor he extract acting except NAGESH. Eventhough, he introduced Kamal and Rajini, they made name and acting in other directors films and not KB.
