But Nagesh's performances in MMKR, Avvai etc. were so unlike his earlier style and indeed brought out another dimension of him. avvaLavu dhaan sonnOm.
Diplomatically worded but this can be applicable even to Kamal Hassen's classics.Quote:

Watching some Vivek scenes from Boys :lol:
The wine shop scenes :lol:
Siddharth : Hello Saar, I am Munna

Aamaam. But Thilak's statement was an observation. And I feel the reactions to it (and mine) are driven by emotion and nostalgia.Quote:

By the way I am not even saying 'variety' is the only yardstick. I am only clarifying Thilak's point that Kamal indeed brought out many dimensions in Nagesh's comic performances.
The 'comic' performances in all the films mentioned had a similar style. Not the movies nor his role/performance in entirety. I don't see where Thilak's argument stands defeated.
And I am not bringing in the humanism,leftism stuff about Chaplin. I mean as pure slapstick genius he was phenomenal. There a scene (I think in the movie 'The General', Iam not sure) where Buster Keaton tries to walk against the wind. Unbelievably funny.
Which is why I am sorry those who prefer only wit are missing.
Like the old malt-drink commercial...yOsikka vENdAm..appidiyE rasikkalaam.
I have some my opinions about this sirikka-sindhikka. And again I feel Vivek does a better job of this than NSK. Today seems to be sacrilege-day I guess :-)
One thing for sure.
Vadivel >>>> vivek :yessir:
