2. Andha Naal (acting) - It must be Sivaji's 5th or 6th movie. No songs in the movie, excellent and stylish acting as a spy. Can you imagine any MGR movie without songs... it would be a disaster
3. Thooku Thooki (comedy) - an awesome acting as also a comedian. Legend TMS first sang for Sivaji.
4. Sabash Meena (comedy) - with Chandrababu. Go and watch his timing in comedy. Less say about MGR's comedy sense, the better. Kamal is good in comedy, but I think he cannot match Sivaji's timing.
5. Veera Pandiya Kattabomman (history) - An epic. No words to describe his acting, he just goes deep into skin of the character. Even reruns, this movie made awesome collection, in Madurai (my hometown), it ran over 50 days in 80s.
6. Vasantha Maligai (love/romance) - Another milestone movie. I strongly believe no other movie matched this in love story. This remake is better than Telugu original
7. Deiva Magan (acting) - Excellent action. He made his face looks ugly for one of the characters. Kamal extended that in AS
8. Navarathri - Appearance of 9 different characters. You can distinguish one Sivaji from another easily
9. Thiruvilaiyadal (mythological) - List does not end, all AP Nagarajan movies. Literally he thought puranas to many.
10. Raja (action) - Excellent movie. His stylish dialogue delivery comes in very handy when act as bond-style
11. Paasamalar - Include all "pa" series movies
12. Gauravam (lawyer) - another mile stone movie. This movie is a bench mark movie for any one who acts as a lawyer.
13. Thangapathakkam (police) - another great movie. Movie for a honest police officer
14. Pattakada Pattanama (village) - another blockbuster. Incidentally, the highest collection movie in black and white category (including MGR b/w movies)
15. Sorgam - a dream character, I just love this movie.
16. M.Mariyadhai - An aged thespian showed you that he is worth of every penny, if used properly.

Last but not least - Uththama Puthiran: what a movie. go and watch Sivaji's villain character..........you will be amazed!

Dont you think that Kamal has reached more heights than shivaji.
Other than that he still has more years in cine industry. So more achivements and more talents will be shown.

Water from many sources forms an ocean. Lots of talents in many departments forms Kamal.
So he is the Ocean.

Thiru... I am afraid these statements are not agreeable to me as well. I am a great fan of Kamal for all his mentioned achievements, but I dont think we can compare Shivaji's acting with anyone born as a actor not only in the Tamil filmdom but all over India. Perhaps Shivaji's only drawback was that he was the acting king during those times when technology and design was not that much develped and people had to survive acting not by technical gimmicks and cinematic dance shows but by real real direct acting. And, can we attribute this as Shivaji's drawback? I personally dont think so. Forget about all other departments in the films, let us talk about real acting. At times, people do all these different roles just for surviving in this industry. Do you think you can ever compare Kamal with the great Shivaji?

Aren't there Shivaji fans out there? Why dont you folks support the great Shivaji? :(

Sivaji is a great actor. Please dont compare Kamal with him.
I doubt whether kamal can do a comedy film successfully without crazy mohan (please list out)?? or a film like veerapaandiya kattaboman??
kamalukku yenna thaan meesai suruti vitaalum, murattu role seiya mudiyaadhu. And, Kamal can never do a lower segment man's role.
But sivaji did all kind of roles.
Today's younger generation are only aware of sivaji's later films of his career which are overacted by him. ( Mute his songs and watch. really hillarious). They should watch his older movies- the ones listed by stranger.

Basically the comparisions between Shivaji and Kamal started because of one statement in MGR's Thread.

The statement was "Kamal reached more heights than Shivaji". I said that not in the sense to attack shivaji. If you look at MGR's thread you may understand that. I explained what i meant in other posts of the MGR Thread also. Is the points which i mentioned wont prove that kamal reached more heights than shivaji.

I once again accept that in acting department alone Shivaji is better than Kamal. Saying that kamal is also almost near him in acting. Also Shivaji cannot excel in some of the roles which kamal excelled. But with some kind of homework kamal can do a good show of whatever roles shivaji excelled. More on this you can find in MGR's Thread.

Are you going to say that Kamal showedgood performance in acting only due to technical advancements?

What a dumb argument.


I am leaving other technical areas. Is not dance, fight are part of acting department. If we need to take Raja movies where sword fight may come, can shivaji excel in that?

If we need to take a movie on a dancer with dance also coming, can shivaji do that?

Kamal is not doing different roles/Different experiments to survive in industry. He is doing that to take tamil cinema to more heights.
If tamil industry is popular among the other state people it is because of few persons. Kamal is one among them.

Kamal would have easily contined doing movies like sakala kala vallavan or any other mass roles. If he would have done that even today he would have been the Top hero among tamilians.

Why do you SAY stealing is an achievment and taking Tamil cinema to heights???

I would say taking tamil cinema to garbage can rather! :twisted:

Start comparing the movies you listed versus the Kamal's movies you were pointing to. Let us see how many things/Scenes are really looks like a copy version. I have not seen "what about bob". But other than inspiration from story line what similarities you can show regarding the screenplay and acting which you can say as copying for "Mrs. Doubtfire"?

If you say inspiration from a already existing story or an real life incident or story taken from novels as an copy then nobody can take any movies in this world. Somewhere you can point any storyline from anywhere. May be in movies, real life incident, etc...

What is copying means.

The older movies Rajini acted. Many of the movies he acted was a straight remake from hindi version. All those movies were scene by scene uplifting from the original. Because of those copied versions onle he became popular. Then why the hell you were watching Rajini movies.
You should have watched amitabh movies better
:lol:

Even some of the Shivaji movies also were remake from other language movies. Kamal also did remake. But comparatively very less.

Yes. Definetly i am new in the forum. Other than that i was not interested in searching on what you said. I have other works too. But you are a king in that. Waiting for the time to point some mistakes comparing one post with other though you fails. So better get those posts and give me the link. I will try to go through that.
I know definetly u will do as you were somehow wanted to pull my leg at any cost.

Anyway see you after some time...

Bye for now.

Thiru... Let me take only two points here.

Firstly, today's dances and sword fights or any other fights in Tamil or all other movies are being choreographed by seasoned and qualified specialists these days than older days. Have you ever thought of the evolution of direction, scrip-writing, and choreography from the past to the present? Also, singing. I just cant digest how you could compare Shivaji and Kamal, both lived in totally different periods in time and totally different lifestyles as well my dear forget about the technical advancements.

Secondly, Shivaji is not with us to prove any of our arguments right or wrong by acting or fighting or dancing once again. So, I think all our arguments against him would be completely futile similar to that of talking to the winds. Dronacharya in acting of Tamil cinema is Shivaji Ganesan. Cheers!

There is no need for Shivaji to prove he is a good dancer/fighter now. He could have done in his days itself.

Of course the technical advancements is much higher nowadays.
Do you think the dances he performed in SKV, Salangai Oli, etc and the fight sequences he did in Kakki Chattai, TTT, Enakkul oruvan etc were good only because of technical advancements?
Definetly we cannot compare two persons from different generation due to life different life styles. I was also origininally not interested in that. But certain basic things remain same in different generations.

Well said. No doubts. I also was saying similiar things only. That Kamal is the follower of Shivaji.
If shivaji is Dronacharya then Kamal is like Karnan/ Arjuna.

I initially said only one thing. Kamal followed the foot steps of Shivaji and achieved more heights than Shivaji. I still dont understand what was wrong in that statement. Did karnan/ Arjuna did not reach more heights than Dronacharya. Did you not reach more heights than your father. Always there is a possiblity of next generation to achive more things than the previous generation.
That is what i meant with my statement. Then people started bashing me for that statement.

I definetly feel more prouder for Shivaji since he is the one among the responsible person for Kamal's greater achivements.

:thumbsup:

deleted as it is irrelevant here. :)

Thanks Stranger,
As expected you have posted something for me. However i have given some points on the inspiration stuff already in my post. However for the sake of yours, I will definetly post more on this stuff some other day. I am really tired of posting big replies today.

Take care,
Have a nice week end.

Water from many sources forms an ocean. Lots of talents in many departments forms Kamal.
So he is the Ocean.Finally in a single word. Kamal is the most talented cine personality India had ever produced. :clap: :clap: :clap: :clap: Even in the
future no one can come near his talents.

Thanks all for accepting this and stopping the argument.

I see some desperate RK fans here, trying to pull Kamal down by comparing him with Shivaji in comedy and action roles :rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl: .........Sorry Shivaji HC fans(Joe, tacinema, VKNarayanan) if I hurt ur sentiments !
I very well accept Shivaji is best in acting ! But as a complete personality Kamal is the best !
8-)

Stranger,
Just browsed through some of the pages in that thread. In that thread itself there are lots of apt reply.

So why are you concerned in a reply from me.

Thanks for understanding.
bye

That thread was taken over by closed-minded KH fanatics and tried to change the "color".

But I dont give a damn about anybody's jdgment because I have a brain of my own.

Views change over the time but NOT THE FACTS.

One thing I can never stand is Taking credit for someone else creation> That is me :)

Then why the hell you like Rajini. He was very much inspired by MGR type movies. Also he was was much inspired or a copy of amitabh. Why not he keep in the credits of his several older movies as Rajini(Copy of Amitabh)


:lol:

I think you like vijay too. No need to say that he copies Rajini.

:lol:

Chalo. Signing out for the day.

Bye....

Even in Chandramukhi, RK & P.vasu had such a hard-time in accepting that it was a lift/copy of MC :lol: :lol: ....I don't think it was yet credited in the movie , same goes to a lot of RK's 80's movies.....What do u say for that? :roll:

Thirumaraaran and Jana!

yeah, yeah yeah, you are correct!

Get back to the topic or just leave! Thanks to you! :notworthy:

THirumaran,
As a Sivaji Veriyan and Die-hard kamal fan,I have acknowledged that Kamal is the Best All rounder ,Where as Sivaji is the Chakkaravarthi of Acting.

Isn't it OK with you?

I guess it boils down to what kind of acting you enjoy more.

Vietnam Veedu vs. Andha Naal
Thangappadhakkam vs. Mudhal MAriyaadhai
Rajaraja Chozhan vs. ThEvar Magan

If you want too "see" acting then Sivaji is miles ahead of anyone else, including Kamal. These are the choices on the left.

But IMO it is the choices on the right that underline how his extraordinary talent was woefully underutilized, despite his 300 odd filmography.

do u say shivaji was underutilized in mudhal mariyadhai,thevar mahan?

:lol: :lol: ..

in my opinion those were the two great performances i have saw in the cine screen!....

mudhal mariyadhai...a script made for shivaji...100/100

devar mahan....its the vito corleone of india...an answer to them

Here, I cut and paste what I posted in MGR thread. I have not changed anything and consider only relevant portions for discussion:

================================================== ================================================== ================================================
Thirumaran,

You are too emotional; cool off man. You are mixing the forum topic, this topic was originally a MGR thread. You, as a single person, virtually changed it to Sivaji vs Kamal fight. You need to go back to original topic and come out with a convincing list of MGR movies that every member of this forum will like. Please keep in mind that this is a public forum, so every member will jump in and praise or hate your statement. Be prepared to accept it. When you come out with a list of MGR movies, just do not stop with Madurai veeran, Kanchi thalaivan,NM, AP, USV (last three were made by MGR himself); you need to provide more movies and details to convince other forum members.

I like good cinema. I am a sivaji fan. I did not have any difficulty to give this forum a list of movies (16 movies) to show case Nadigar thilagam's versatility and also I added that many more can be given. I could continue that list, but it will be endless. That was Sivaji's power and I also mentioned his limit in doing action roles. As Joe and others highlighted, Sivaji acted in some very successful action movies, egs: Raja, Engal thanga raaja, thirisoolam. I heard Thirisoolam collection was so huge that Government of TN under MGR had to change the rule to collect the tax. That show cases his power and only after a very long time, Bhagyaraj movie (mundhanai mudichi) beat that collection. Even his movie Sandhipoo (dual role, one acted with Sridevi, as you were mentioning above) of Sivaji Productions was a super hit movie and it ran silver jubilee in every major centers.

You need to keep in mind, for Sivaji, there was no body before him to be compared. But, you have got a base line for Kamal, you are comparing Kamal with Sivaji. Kamal is a good actor/director/dancer, but according to my view, the comparison of sivaji vs kamal does not have any merit. Just one point: All Sivaji movies (in 50/60s and partly 70s) were kind of experimentation movies. He succeded in a big way including commercially, and his success rate was so big that was never witnessed before in tamil cinema (Read Randor guy's article in The Hindu, most of his articles still available in Hindu's archives). Some of his movies were way ahead of time, example: Andha Naal, Thooku Thooki, Uthmaa Puthiran, Puthiya Paravai. Kamal experimentation movies lack something. Some of his movies, though quality movies, fail at the BO collection, example: aalavandhan, hey raam, AS, MXpress,Raja Paarvai etc. I like Kamal's good movies, like Devar Magan was great, almost a classic (sivaji and revathy role in the movie made a big difference, that is entirely a different story).

In my last post, I was not asking you to show me an actor who can make VPKattabomman. I was challenging you whether any other actor can beat SIVAJI's PERFORMANCE, not to make the kattabomman again. Let me reiterate my point: Sivaji is UNIQUE in acting, his success cannot be repeated and that is why I said earlier that Sivaji is a genius in his own way. This opinion was concurred by many great actors, like Bollywood's Dilip Kumar and Hollywood's Marlyn Brando. Sivaji's presence was so powerful that he virtually defined what an acting is and people accepted that definition. TN agreed that "nadipirkku illakkanam Sivaji" and no body can come close to that. IMO, Kamal is a good actor; to bring more out of Kamal, he should act under very talented directors. There was always some rumour that Kamal does not go well with most of directors; i dont know how far it is true.

Any way, I want to stop sivaji vs kamal argument. I am expecting some good writing about MGR movies from Thiru (of course, on MGR thread, not here)

I have to go now and have a great and prosperous tamilzhar tirunaal PONGAL.

================================================== ================================================== ================================================

a little change....shivaji dint experiment...shivaji is a part of experiment!

the story writers,directors and courageaous producers are experimenters!

but kamal uses his own money,directs himself and writes his own scripts for experiments like hey raam...

he is not just a part!

Kamal is the best for acting
Sivaji is good for dialogue delivering

You did not get what I wrote. It is my opinion that these are Sivaji's best performances and they underline how much he has been underutilized in his long filmography.

This was a man who was ready with tremendous talent in Andha Naal (1954 itself). IMO that was his best performance. And his next best comes in 1992.

u are right man!

kamal dint do that mistake!

he produced movies to showcase his talent

"can kamal do a comedy movie without crazy mohan?" is ur question!

kamal have done comedy without dialogues itself! :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:

have u seen "pesum padam"

"kamal cant do murattu role"..

dint u see murattu kamal in sathya?.....

kamal in lower segment man role....

dint u see varumai niram sigappu?

hello......i can prove kamal is comparable to shivaji in all aspects with his past movies[/quote]

yes. You are correct. How did I forgot these movies. May be that, Kamal did not got the Directors- that shivaji use to get those days. As Kamal is too much indulging himself in the movies, he is losing the choice to work with the likes of Bala, cheran, selvaragavan etc. Its good now that he is working with Gautam.

Nilavupriyan,
I feel pity for your ignorance

//a little change....shivaji dint experiment...shivaji is a part of experiment!

//

Not all the actors had a courage to accept different,challenging rolles after they became stars ..You should have known MGR (Who is also star in sivaji's time) can't take any challenging different roles.

Nadigar Thilagam became super Star of Tamil cinema with his first movie 'Parasakthi' unlike MGR who struggled to became a star.

Even after his stardom in first movie itself ,Nadigar Thilagam had a courage to act as a Villian and Desa throgi in a movie.

He had a courage to act in first tamil movie with no songs'Antha Naal'

He had a courage to act as a father of aged daughters in his 30s.

He was in his 30s when he acted in Vietnam veedu as a 60 year old family leader.

He had a courage to act from majaestic kings to pichakaran ,and convince his fans and public and he made them to accept it as a art.

It will be endless.

I think it is useless to repeat all these again and again

Nilavupriyan,
Please don't come up with list of kamal's courage to make me understand .

I am a bigger kamal fan than you,if not equal..Go and ask our own kamal ,who gave the courage to him to take challenging roles ..he will tell you.."It is my guru Nadigar Thilagam"

infact shivaji is most courageous(than kamal) to select those types of roles in 1950's and 60's..accepted.

but producing those types of movies needs more curage than that!


shivaji continued that path as his films became hits....but kamal contnues even after mahanadhai,hey raam and anbe sivam flops!

he produces those kind of movies!..shivaji dint take any risks in productiopn like that!..in his last period ..he did movies like sangili and dr.siva...

kamal lives in cinema more than shivaji


btw..good to know u r a kamal fan too...and im a shivaji fan for ur info!

Nilavu,
You need to understand some facts
//but producing those types of movies needs more curage than that! //
Sivaji is not a producer who invloved directly in movie production..Even though 'sivaji films' was his property ,it was taken care by his brother shanmugam.

Nadigar Thilagam is a pure actor,unlike kamal who is a All rounder...I am tired of repeating this.

//shivaji continued that path as his films became hits//

Is it sivaji's mistake to made his different movies successful ..Do you know his most favourate movies Karan,Kappaloyyita Tamilan were flops ..But he never gave up after that.

//good to know u r a kamal fan too//
ha ha..That is very funny ..In old forumhub ,I was termed as a kamal fanatic ,I was more active then ..You may not know.
