Bahappirivinai scene.
Son vENu aravind says something unseemly about Sivaji (KRV's brother in law).

KRV-kku kObam. She lets out a war cry, disshevels her hair in disbelief as she utters it and proceeds to assault her son vEnu aravind mercilessly.

What makes it even more interesting is a mild editing blooper. After he utters the wrath earning line, the shot changes to a wider angle, technically to accomodate the action and more importantly to accomodate KRV herself. So for half a moment after the line she is silent and then without warning she pounes on the unsuspecting vEnu and the viewers

prabhuram, the delay by KRV might have been to disable and disintegrate Venu!

I found the salutation extremely funny - something only thEngai would say. To see him use it in all seriousness was a pause-and-laugh moment.

A serial in DD written by Randor Guy. Murder investigation where VG is the dedective. He chances upon a diary of the victim which has shorthand notes about amounts paid to various person. There is one frequent entry. One PR seems o have been paid sizeable amounts every few weeks. Stash that away in memory.

Later he investigates Sowcar and is going over various suspects. She describes one guy as a porukki rascal. Much later he puts two and two together and let's out a Eureka :"PR.... porukki rascal ! I got it !!"

I surely no older than 10 but I was like: " you gotta be kidding me". His cry of discovery and joy is still etched in my memory.

Not untill I joined the Hub did I know that I'd be answering to same acronym.

Ramana: Jail taarchar scene. Rendu scene-layum the way she breaks into a cry without warning is the reason she is nominated.

Other films in general: She alternates between a weak pleading voice and talking while crying and the line between the two is not only thing but is breached often without warning

-edited-out EC's note: Case file is very weak. Original-a nominate pannina Bala Karthik is summoned by the authorities here to present more evidence on this case.

“Dad, I asked for acting tips, not this crap.”

“Oh, ok. Have you seen me act angry in movies?”

“You mean where you keep your body erect, roll your eyes and shake your head robotically back and forth?”

“Yes. Exactly. Do that.”

For once, Surya listened to his dad.

Then comes the definitive charge on Sivakumar:

While Siva maintained his limited range, and never ventured beyond his territory - fondly called markandeyan, it boggles the mind to think that he was kind of the romantic drama staple in 80's - he has made enough impact even within this range. At this point, important to remember stochastica's above description of his style of anger.
"Sangeedha medaiya sakkadiakka pakkariya" with eyes rolling and hands waving frantically, sideways stance - everything stocahstica describes as his stock pose to express anger is here - he would have stood erect too to complete that description except that he was sitting at that time. But what is more important to note here is the sing-song intonation of the dialogue - "sangeedha medaiya", 1 microsec pause, "saaaakkadiyakka parkariyaaaa". This is standard for all scenes - "neenga ellorum", one sec pause "needuzhi vaazhanum" will also be in same intonation by him.

Then, there are his romantic expressions:

Given his off-screen persona of a pathniviradha dikkinified man, this is doubly entertaining. In unakkagave vaazhgiren, director rangarajan gets inspired and kills off young suresh and pairs the made for each other wannabe-celibate pair of nadiya and siva in the climax. This ofcourse means that the menaka whom siva romanced passionately in the beginning of the flashback has to kick the bucket,too.

(And yes, the number of young heroes conveniently kicking the bucket before being married off to nadia in the script,is perplexing and a topic by itself - we saw rahman doing it in nilave malare earlier - perhaps he was traumatised by anbulla appa, where bang in the crucial moment in the first night, nadia has a severe bout of daddy-affection, and walks out - maybe he felt marubadiyum idhu koodava!and the directors of the time seemed to know where to place nadia - promptly pairing her to siva, rajesh et al when suresh, rahman were available in the script - she sufferred/enjoyed this fate more than any other contempoprary actress)

The getting together of siva and nadia involves some trite contrivances, but what takes the cake is Siva's viraham expressions in the song kanna unnai thedugiraen - we used to sing it as chittappa unnai thedugiraen, to signify the nadia-sivakumar pairing - we were too young to understand the director's wisdom) - these are exactly same as the "sangeedha medaiyai" expressions in sindhu bhairavi!

Siva's specialty was his random choice of expressions for random moods. The director would be playing lottery there not knowing what expression he's gonna get next

A discussion on Sivakumar's expressions in 'Pon vaanam Panneer thoovudhu" from Indru nee naalai naan

Quote:

crajkumar_be:"Ponvaanam panneer thoovudhu" - It cannot be topped! Enna solreenga?
Plum:Cr, right. When I first saw that movie, I couldnt understand it in the first place but Siva's expressions in this song surely take the cake as the ultimate confuser - onnume determine panna mudiyalai - lakshmiyai anniya respecta paarkuraara, illai extra marital affair intentionada look viduraara, virahma, virodhama - onyum puriyadhu. Whether he is looking at Lakshmi respectfully as Anni or giving a look with an intention to an extra marital affair, whether it is viraham or virodham, you just cannot determine
idhula oru subtlety irukku - a veiled attempt to parody the director of this movie
