அடடா, என்ன ஒரு அருமையான நடிகர் :-(
ஆழ்ந்த அனுதாபங்கள் :-(
ஹனிபா இறந்தது ஒருவித அதிர்ச்சியை அளிக்கிறது. பெரிய இழப்பு. நல்லதொரு கலைஞனை இழந்து விட்டோம்.
மகாநதி, பட்டியல், முதல்வன், லேசா லேசா.
குறிப்பா முதல்வனில் முதலமைச்சர் ரகுவரனின் எடுபிடியாய் வரும் காட்சிகள். தொலைக்காட்சிக்கு முதல்வர் பேட்டி கொடுக்கும்போது ஏற்படும் பிரச்சினையில் வேட்டியை தூக்கி கேமராவுக்கு முன்பு காட்டும் விதம் இருக்கிறதே.. க்ளாஸ்.
சில கலைஞர்கள் எந்த பாத்திரத்தில் நடித்தாலும் நம்பகத்தன்மை இயல்பாக வந்துவிடும். ஹனிபா அப்படிப்பட்ட அபூர்வ மனிதர்.
:( i really feel very sad... good actor... he made me to laugh many times... :bow:
RIP. :cry:
Cochin Haneefa was a multi faceted talent. Earlier in his career, I didn't think much of him. He was a permanent artist in those MohanLal - Priyadharsan churnouts in early eighties. Even when he started directing movies, his initial outputs like Oru Aan kiliyude Tharaattu and Moonu Maasangaluku Munpe [Paasa Paraivaigal in Tamil] were not great with the later being just ok for me.
Come Vatsalyam [1993], my respect for him did a U-turn. Though Lohithadas had carved out a masterpiece of screenplay and Mammootty gave his life and soul to that Meladathu Raghavan Nair character, it still required some calibre to present it that way in celluloid and Haneefa did a pretty good job, which earned him accolades all over. Probably that made him realise that he can do a better job with the megaphone and he did not direct any Malayalam movie after that. Though he was working on a script involving a deaf and dumb person selling payasam in a market as the main protagonist, this movie set in a typical Kerala village mileu did not take off.
The actor in him mellowed over the years and he was a sure bet in comical as well as character roles late in his career. His unique voice was an assest and especially his Tamil dialogues with the Malayalam accent was liked by many.
The fact that in 70's, he was the President of Sivaji Fans Association in Ernakulam [Cochin] makes it more painful.
I had a telephonic conversation with him once [courtesy Mohanram sir] and met him once at Nuts and Bakes shop at Nungampakkam. On both occasions, NT and Vatslayam were the topics we discussed. On the second occasion he was playing the perfect father to his twin daughters who were making him run all over the shop and in spite of that he spent some time with me.
May his family come out of this trauma and let his soul rest in piece.
What a loss. RIP.
RIP! :(
His role in "Mahanadhi" as a sly villain is unforgettable.
May his soul rest in peace :(
For me Haneefa will always be associated with 'Mahanadhi'-memorable portrayal in a great film.
