Vivek Meets Dr. M

Vivek gets his wish
PUTRAJAYA: When Tamilnadu’s famed comedian A. Vivekanandan received a surprise call from Putrajaya granting his request to meet former prime minister Tun Dr Mahathir Mohamad, he boarded the next plane to Kuala Lumpur without a second thought.
The popular comedian, better known as Vivek, arrived from Chennai yesterday morning and headed straight for the Perdana Leadership Foundation here to meet a man he most admired.
“Meeting Dr Mahathir is a dream come true. I compare him with (Dr APJ) Abdul Kalam (India’s former president).
“I have admired him from afar and have read a lot about him and the development he had brought to Malaysia.
“I have been waiting to see him for the last three years,” he said, adding that he missed an appointment three years ago when he was filming in Ipoh due to a massive traffic jam.
“Last month, I made another appointment to see him when I was filming here but he was not well and when I suddenly got a call yesterday, I came straight over,” he said, adding that he was now busy acting in five films.
Vivek, who presented Dr Mahathir with a Tanjore Plate made of copper and silver and a miniature Taj Mahal, was especially impressed with Dr Mahathir’s reply on what drove him.
“He immediately said that it was his love for the nation,” he said, adding that he would treasure the 30 minutes with Dr Mahathir forever.
Vivek had also asked the former Malaysian prime minister to autograph a book.
விவேக் மகாதீரோடு அப்படி என்ன வரலாற்று சிறப்பு மிக்க பேச்சுவார்த்தை நடத்தினார் ? :roll:
i guess just like we are fans of cinema stars, they too are fans of some ppl. :roll:Quote:

Indian satirist Vivek, who was in town recently, talks about his brand of humour with a purpose.
By NANTHA KUMAR

SINCE the demise of M.R. Radha in 1979, there hasn’t been another actor in South India who could match the observational powers and caustic comedy of the versatile thespian. But there have been those brave enough to try. The best contemporary cinema offers – strictly in the art of satire – is Vivekanandhan, or Vivek as he is more commonly known.
Principally a comedian, Vivek’s comedy sketches invoke the Radha brand of humour and he has elicited comparisons with the 1960s icon.
Tamil movie comedian Vivek tackles social issues with humour.
“(I agree that) apart from M.R. Radha, I happen to be the only comedian to deal with social issues in a humorous manner, which explains the constant comparisons (with the late legend). But he has achieved so much and is a peerless artiste ... you can’t compare me with him. I’m only doing what my ability allows,” said the 47-year-old in an interview during a visit to Kuala Lumpur, which included a meeting with former Prime Minister Tun Dr Mahathir Mohamad, of whom Vivek is a big fan.
“As a comedian, my forte is the social commentary embedded in my sketches. This happened by accident. I was introduced in 1987 in the movie Manathil Uruthi Veindum but I was at a crossroads until 1993 because I felt I was too qualified to be an actor!
Vivek had completed his masters degree before venturing into film; and after his first movie, he returned to his day job at the chief minister’s secretariat.
“It was two years before I was recalled for my second film, Balachander’s Pudhu Pudhu Arthangal, and that was the break which led to Tirunelveli in 1999. (Veteran actor) Prabhu showed me the completed film which was full of violence and conveyed issues of caste, creed and colour. Prabhu asked me to produce comedy sketches for it.”
Vivek stumbled upon the idea to parody the themes of Tirunelveli and embarked on his maiden stab in script writing for comedy sequences. Unlike Hollywood comedians who call upon a team of writers, Vivek went to long-time collaborators Prasanna Kumar and Murugan (who is also his manager). There were anxieties about whether such blunt remarks would be accepted by the masses.
But the media eventually responded with gratifying reviews. Public acceptance of the film and endorsements from Tamil film giants followed; superstar Rajinikanth even told Vivek that the sociopolitical slant to his humour would bring him fame and set him apart from his peers.
According to Vivek, there was a time when films centred on comedians.
“There are movies that became blockbuster hits because of Nagesh, Thangavelu and Chandrababu. But there was a gap in between the 1980s and 1990s after the attempts of Goundamani and Senthil to become heroes were not well received. After these two films flopped, the producers didn’t want to risk turning comedians into heroes. The trend has returned with the success of Vadivelu’s Imsai Arasan 23am Pulikesi,” he said.
Vivek – who last year played the hero in the yet-to-be-released Solli Adipean – enjoys sending messages through his movies.
“I see society from the perspective of an educated man. I’m rooted to what is happening on the ground and am a voracious reader; my humour reflects (the concerns and thoughts of the) society. I mean what I say.
“One observes a lot by watching so I watch, read and observe. I still have my tea at the stalls and I don’t read the magazines of the upper crust but those of the working class. So long as I’m close to the man in the street, I’m a successful comedian and I’m a flop when I drift away from him. I know that now.”

Vivek is my all time favourite comedian :D
i always had a great respect for Vivek, mainly because he has said many times that he loves Malaysia (even in interviews in India).. but i wont call him the best, but he's definitely lights years ahead of Imsai Arasan
His comedy is very decent which is one of the main reasons why i like him :D
In recent times, no one is decent in their comedy, including Gounder (my fav) but the percentage of decency variesQuote:

i was one of the first to jump on Vivek's bandwagon during thirunelveli,sudanthiram,lovely days, but later i realized he is not that great. On current crop of comedians (i exclude legend Gounder), he is the best, because others just shout and get beaten up by random guys (sometimes by kids) for no reason..
:yes: and even the way he dresses is decent..........vadivelu with his tied up veshti :x he thinks its funny but its really disgusting...........IMO nagesh,cho,vivek are THE BEST.....period......senthil in some moviesQuote:
