We cannot shoot "naalu pakkam vedarundu " song like "mayangugiraal oru maadhu." of paasamalar.
Nadigar Thilagam's look in that song. I think, you would have removed your specs and watched the same...If song is disgusting, you have every liberty to switch it off...or change the channel simple unless and until, you are sitting in theater...even then, you can go out and come back...! :-)
Coming back to NT's starting phase of his downfall......comment of yours....
What do you mean by downfall? are you referring interms of quality or quantity?
If you are talking interms of quality, he is absolutely not at fault. Even if you go to a Saloon, you do not ask the barber to cut as per his wish isn't it? You do ask him to cut as per your specification right ?
Nadigar Thilagam is an actor by profession , he is paid for the work that he specializes, MOST IMPORTANTLY, he reports to work on time, completes his work on time UNLIKE many in-disciplined actors and those whom you have appreciated in your other postings earlier.
QUALITY is the responsibility of all the team members of respective department too..NOT JUST NT...!
If you are talking interms of quantity, here are the figures...
Between 1977 - 1987, Nadigar Thilagam's 87 films has been screened @ an average of 8.7 films per year. If your comment is based on number of films committed by external producers, then Where is the Downfall that you saw and that you are trying to project here ?
Rest of the Actors whom you would spread red carpet welcome other than Nadigar Thilagam, were also in the field and competing at that time and even now, trying to compete with the laurels of Nadigar Thilagam.
They may looked Younger, Brighter, Lighter than Nadigar Thilagam...I do not deny It's because of their AGE. For your information, the current age of such actors and the way they look in films, is DEFINITELY AWEFUL and the looks of an aged man is far far visible in them...But most of the times, Nadigar Thilagam would certainly look the age of the character that he does in the film.
PAASAMALAR performance is not required for AOK because, the story is different and did not demand, which people like you, who just for the heck of it blame NT on the air, should first understand ! NT was not required for AOK...Your expectation was WRONG !!!
See Dr.Vijay having a lovable sister in AOK and he is very much there.
