Kamal's Golden Jubilee year

Ammavum neyae appavum neyae - This was on Aug 12, 1959 - celebrating the golden jubilee of this is the 'Ulaga Nayagan' Kamal Haasan.



Velu Nayagan of Nayagan, Chappani from 16 Vayathinile, Apoorva Sagodharargal Appu, Vazhvey Maayam Raja, Krishnaswamy of Mahanadhi, Aalavandhan Nandu, Thenali, Indian, Avvai Shanmugi ... each character says about Kamal's commitment to his work. It is not difficult for anyone to do have done so much, if they could stay for this long in the industry. But I don't think anyone would have done this with such a dedication and willingness to learn every bit of whole cinema like Kamal. I am sure he will end up in a place where you will have no one else to compare with him.



Though I don't prefer watching movies second time, there are exceptions like Manohara, Panneer Pushpangal, Batsha, Minnale. And this ANBE SIVAM! Though it was the extraordinary performance by Madhavan which made the movie so pleasant, I like the movie very much because I could see the real Kamal - exactly what he would be outside the cinema -in many places. And that is the Kamal I like. I am not against religion but I listen when he talks about religion. I am neither against caste but I prefer to spend time to hear if he speaks about it. I am not really a fan of him but if you ask me to say about my favourite actor, it would be Kamal ;-)

I wish he delivers Marutha Nayagam and it is far superior to his best of movies.

This is funny and typical of Kamal: Nakkal Nayyandi Virumandi

Stop & Listen

Source: Email forward A man sat at a metro station in Washington DC and started to play the violin; it was a cold January morning. He played six Bach pieces for about 45 minutes. During that time, since it was rush hour, it was calculated that thousand of people went through the station, most of them on their way to work. Three minutes went by and a middle aged man noticed there was musician playing. He slowed his pace and stopped for a few seconds and then hurried up to meet his schedule. A minute later, the violinist received his first dollar tip: a woman threw the money in the till and without stopping continued to walk. A few minutes later, someone leaned against the wall to listen to him, but the man looked at his watch and started to walk again. Clearly he was late for work. The one who paid the most attention was a 3 year old boy. His mother tagged him along, hurried but the kid stopped to look at the violinist. Finally the mother pushed hard and the child continued to walk tur...
