Joe, rather than affecting the cinema personalities who have been ignored, such lists reflect very greatly on the people putting up the list! :P
All, just imagine that you can honour only 10 people of the industry right from the 1930s. Who would your choice be?
In fact, I shudder to think that I mydelf have ignored earlier great personalities such as MKT, MS, GR, etc :shock:
your top 10 cinepersonality.. Take 2.
1)AVM meiyappa chettiyar
2)shivaji
3)padmini
4)rajini
5)IR
6)SPB/janaki
7)manirathnam
8)ARR
9)nagesh/koundar senthil
10)aachi manorama
but Vj will be here if i give the list after 15 yrs..
Joe,

Shivaji Ganesan - Nil
M S V - Kannadasan

My list goes like this but no particular order except Kamal topping the list :D
1. Kamal Hassan
2. Sivaji Ganeshan
3. S P Balasubramaniam
4. Ilayarajah
5. Vairamuththu
6. ARR
7. Rajinikanth

10. Nagesh
Dr.SPB=Dr.Shivaji
Rajnikanth
Kamalhasan
S.Janaki=P.Susheela= Dr.KJY..............
You give preference to Kamal over Sivaji. I can argue MGR is better than them and Kamal Sivaji should be second in your list. Do you want us to list in the order you prefer? Then why/what are we supposed to discuss here? You CAN'T comment on our list as we can't comment on your list. I can make fun of your list and ask you do you have COMMON SENSE? But I'll not do that. I have common sense that says don't hurt others feelings. Hope you understand. I can just hope now. Achievement makes no sense in listing top ten personality.Quote:

I still felt bad for excluding some other personalities in my top 10 ... but I was helpless ....Quote:

BTW , if it were really to be , top 10 cine personalities based on their contribution to tamil cine arts, then again I don't think rajni would hold a candle to Kamal or other greatest contributors .... (sorry people(rajni fans) , I felt like saying this .... ) ... in that case , arguably Sivaji might top the list for his reportoire , for the range of characters he brought to life (from historical,devotional,....) and then Kamal (as well for his writing, producing as much an actor ), then a lot of writers like Kalaignar, ..... dirs like KB, BR, MR ....IR,ARR etc .... Even in such an ideal list would hardly rajni get a rank
8-)
Makes no sense at all !Quote:

Leave him guys, he just got awed by ur awesome list, and said few things carried away with emotions.
I guess even I said the same opinion too. You did not pick on me, but chose to pick on him.

Joe,
I think even I misunderstood the thread as TOP 10 achievers than TOP 10 FAV PPL.

I was expecting the Top 10 of the individual choice. Not necessarily the Top most cine personalities
in terms of talent or achivements or anything great. So there is no point in regretting on missing out
certain names in that list. Tastes differs. And there are lots of other external factors also apply to keep them as
your favourites.
My list also goes as per my liking towards those cine personalities. Not really based on talents or achivements.
However the talented ones also will come in my list.
Here goes mine..
1. M.G.R -- He is the one who i admire a lot. His positive approach in his movies is the main thing i like about him. I would say he is
a trendsetter. He is not definetly talent like many others. Still he should be in the list of Top 10, even in terms of
achievements. I believe more or less every actor after his generation followed his style of film making and became popular.
For me, he is one of the great achiever in Tamil cinema. Unargually the most popular Cine personality among Tamilians.
2. Kamalhasan - A complete cine personality. One among the few who made people to make notice of Tamil Cinema. We can keep on talking about
him. His achivements are endless. More is pending.
3. Ilayaraja - A genius. Though i like other musicians of current and past, he is the one i admire a lot. Enourmous talent he had considering
his background. Around 900 movies(unbelievable). Maximim of his movies had great music. Maximum of his tunes i believe were original.
The king of BGM.
4. Sivaji Ganesan -- We can definetly keep Shivaji as the meaning for the term Nadippu in any Tamil Dictionary. Anything is less to say
about him in acting department.
5. K. Bakhyaraj --- One among the few whose films were recognised as a Director's film. Best in screenplay. An intersting actor too. The way he
approaches the subject were always wonderful.
6. Rajinikanth --- Another Trend setter. When those with conventional looks were ruling tamil cinema, changed the course. An attractive and
magnetic personality of Tamil cinema. I would say Rajinikanth also will fit in Top 10 even in terms of achievements.
7. Kavignar Vaali --- This choice may be a surprise. Definetly i like Kannadasan and Vairamuthu. But i admire him because his lyrics were
suitable for differnt generation people. From philosophy to stupidity he can write about anything.
8. SP Balasubramaniam -- The one whose voice suited many actors of different generations.
9. Cho Ramaswamy -- I love his way of comedy. I would never miss if i get a chance to see his comedy and also his writings. He is one of the most
talented. Head levelled. Never talks anything in a hurry.
10. Manorama --- As mentioned by several Cine persons, She is definetly a Lady Shivaji Ganesn. The only female artist who made impact with
different generation people.
Saying this, there are more to be included in my favorites. However limiting to 10 for the sake of the title.
:D
Thirumaran, Superb post !!! I love the way you explained each personality ... :thumbsup: :thumbsup:
Enna onnu ... Oruthar mattum konjam top-la irunthuruntha innum nalla irunthurkum !!! Just kidding ... :P :P :P

For the past 25+ years, he is THE only actor who sells like a hot cake. After all cinema is a business and RK is THE major contributor as an actor in his generation! (in terms of revenue generated, that is)

But, yeah, if u look at that as a business , then rajni would def rank in top 10 , ahead of Kamal , next to MGR, Sivaji .....
