Hey tacinema,
Quote:
How do you define romance? Tamizharasan said Kamal is the best romantic hero. Kamal was a handsome hero, for eg. in vazhve maayam, he looked great as a romantic hero. But not any more. Now, he mixes romance/love with something else. West may accept his concept, but not TN.
So you want kamal to do more romantic roles at the age of 50. Did shivaji excelled in romantic roles at the later ages. I remember shivaji doing romance with Sridevi in some movie which looks pathetic. But even at this age if Kamal do some romance it wont be pathetic.
By the way I was not refering to kissing alone when we talk of romance.

IMO, for romance, your eyes should talk with a girl, talk softly, almost seduce her. Gemini was the best here, he could love a girl without touching her. Eg. Then nilavu/Kalyana Parisu. If you watch Sivaji's V.Maaligai/Ooty V uravu/Puthiya paravai, you will see his love scene performance definitely exceeds Kamal's. The issue is Kamal's tamil pronunciation, it sounds somewhat artificial (in love scenes) when compared to gemini/sivaji.
I also can give some definitions on romance. So what? Have you not seen 'Ek dujhe ke liye' or 'Telugu version' of that.
Is that not good enough to say Kamal is great in romance. Of course the phenomenal box office success of those movies can say that. Tamil dialogues of Kamal looks artificial in romance scenes.
:lol: Very sad that he did some great romance movie in different language but could not do well in his mother tongue.

Just to illustrate more, watch a scene in VMaaligai, when sivaji takes Vanisree to his Palace and goes for a lengthy dialogue...though it may not happen in real life, but it was a great scene to watch!!
Cool. Yes. You accepted one thing. The lengthy dialogues which shivaji talks in allmost all his movies will never happen in real life. That is why we say shivaji over does many of his character including the one you mentioned. That is why one of the reasons he could not get any national award for best actor in his period.

Sivaji had limitations too: action movies. MGR was good in editing, direction. Kamal is a total package, he does everything. Kamal is one of the best we got now!!

Thirumaran talked about history movies and said Kamal's Marudanayagam will show case his talent. Let Marudanayagam come first and i wish a big success for Kamalji. Even then, I bet Kamal or anyone cannot beat VPKattabomman. Over 40 years have been passed since Kattabomman release, no tamil actor has beaten his performance. So, it won't happen for another 40-50 years.
what do you want to say. Kamal has to do VPKattabomman and has to show that he is better than Shivaji. Even i also feel that Marudhanaayagam may not come. That may not prove that he cannot excel in historic roles. It is all to do with people's current taste and budget. But if Marudhanaayagam come without any doubt it will be a milestone. Let us hope kamal gets the money needed for making that movie.
Every body talks about VPkattabomman. I however did not watch the full movie. Seen only in parts. Without any doubt he did a great performance with body language and dialogue delivery. I was not sure on one thing. If we talk VPkattaomman as a character then definetly there should be some action scenes like fighting with the sword,etc. Did those scenes there in the movie? If yes, did shivaji did a good show in those scenes. I dont know as i did not see the full movie. Can anybody clear me on this? If he did not do well in those scenes then that movie is incomplete as per my opinion.
