Most Lovable / Favourite Characters on screen

Adultery & " padi thandiya pathini " characters are not new to tamil cinema ( in fact, for any cinema :D ) But the one that stays in my mind evergreen is the one played by Silk Smitha in Moondram Pirai.

A helpless young girl, married to a hopeless old man. Naturally, she develops an affinity towards this young, charming & handsome hero. Smitha did a brilliant job :clap:

People used to argue with me saying that character was thrusted deliberately for commercial reasons. Well, I would say that except for " ponmeni urugudhey " which is definitely for commercial reason, the character has got its own significance. The logic is very simple. When she openly reveals her desire to the hero himself, he rejects her very decently. This helps make the audience to understand what a virtuous guy he is and at the same time his deep love to Viji.

CAPTAIN PRABHAKARAN – ONE MAN ARMY !!!

Another of my favourite character. A fantastic role for Vijaykanth who couldn’t have asked more for his 100th film. Right from the beginning, it was action, action, action all the way.

I could never forget the dramatic opening scene. It’s almost middle of the night. A girl comes running in the broad & lonely road, screaming for help. She is being chased by a police man (Ponnambalam). She runs blindly and collides on a jeep which belongs to none other than Captain’s. IR’s trademark BGM makes it more interesting.

With all the headlights of the jeep shining brightly, Captain stands there like a lion. Ippo angey irundhu arambipparu saravediya….adi pinnikitte police station varaikkum povar. Of course, everyone knows about his skills in action sequences, but here’s my take. He swiftly perches on any stationary object (at times, even movable too !!), makes a turn in the air, kicks the enemy and makes a perfect landing – something like a ballet !! The subsequent fight in the police station is also a treat. Now, when all the cops are exhausted, ivar thenavatta, dhairiyama angey irukkira black board-la thannudaya peru, address ellam ezhuduvaru – sema scene. Upon watching that character doing those fantastic stunts on screen, you feel like rolling up your sleeves and get ready for a fist fight with someone !!!!

rangan.. :clap: :clap:
