Chevalier Dr. Kamal Haasanin Mayyam - Part 9

[kumarsr]

Soora Samharam

- Directed by Journalist-turned-PRO-turned-Director-turned-Supporting Actor. Now known as Mongoose Mandaiyan - <B>Chithra Lakshmanan</B>

He is there in the cast of UV

- In some scenes he appears with orginal murukku meesai. Ottumeesai in most of the 2nd half.

We might be treated to the same experience in Papanasam

- Nirosha, the heroine is introduced as Mythili in the titles. Not sure if this was before or after Agni Natchathiram.

After Agni.

- Somehow KH's chemistry isn't all that good with Nirosha

Radhika's sister, can't imagine looking at her now.


Another wasted effort like Kalaignan.

Hmm yeah. He did that quite often in 80s when the movie going public didn't care about it much. I hope it isn't too obvious in Papanaasam.

And about KH's cop roles, he has a pretty good success rate - OKD, Ab.Sago, VV1, VV2, Khakhi Chattai,KP, Vikram(good business in B&C). One more average grosser which comes to my mind is Andha Oru Nimidam. I thought it did not do well till I saw the director/producer/villain Major Sundarrajan's interview in Jaya TV about ten years back.

Mottai Bosskey : Andha Oru Nimidam'nu oru padam pannineengale, adhu Andha Oru Nimidam aavadhu odicha?
Major: 100 days odhichu. Sumaarana laabam vandhudhu.

OTOH for Rajini, except Moondru Mugam and Anbukku Naan Adimai(not sure about its success) none of the movies ran well.
Kodi Parakkudhu, Naattukku Oru Nallavan, Pandian and some movies in Bollywood failed. Pandian was the last movie in which he played a cop.

In Andha Oru Nimidam, Kamal's a lawyer not a cop.
