May be, but I dont see Aamir anyway closer to KH. Aamir to his credit has Lagaan and Rising and nothing else. Some ppl will call DCH as a great movie, may be, but that doesnt take Aamir to anylevel. Lagaan to me is the only est movie Aamir gave and now Rising. After looking at Rising, I am wondering why movies like Veerapandiya Kattabomman didnt get that much 'attraction' than these movies. I guess in 60s ppl still had memory of freedom, so they didnt bother, but now the dont know what freedom struggle means, so they are "worried" and appreciating the movie.

KH definitely inspired heavily from bollywood, but he is creating in his own way. KH is few thousand miles ahead of Aamir in terms of creativity, experimentation and risk taking. KH may have seen many commercial failures than the rest of the movie industry together, but still standing top, not worried about commercial aspect and trying to do his best.

A movie by Rajni in RaajKamal production will realize in 2 years and that will make KH realize his Marudhanayagam dream soon.

Not many mainstream bollywood heros can show subtle brilliance which Aamir showed in DCH. Just watch the scenes where he breaks down whilst talking to his dad on phone and the scene where he reunites with Sidd. He's quite a complete actor and is definitely the best in Bollywood.

Jacky,
I'm sure you know how many such instances we can quote for KH

**Jacky** · 21st October 2005, 12:26 AM

*, I wasn't comparing KH and Aamir. NJV felt DCH was ordinary to which i disagreed.

Agreed, but few scenes here and there in 2 movies (DCH and Lagaan) wont take him anywhere. We have lot better actors than him in tamil, leave alone Kamal and Rajni but you have Vikram, Surya, Dhanush to name a few.

I still think that DCH is nothing great. I dont know why ppl go crazy abt it. May be its very close to reality type of movie for Hindi (no running around the tree, no london boy returning to india to marry a house maid, no american hero going to london to demonstrate our patriotism, no period movie, no bullshit) and thats the reason it got applauded, but for ppl who has seen many many many bharathiraja, kb, kh, rajni, mahendran, balumahendra, sivaji, manirathnam, shankar, selvaragavan and many many others, this is an ordinary movie.
