Satyaraj
was a huge success because
he combined action with his
irreverent brand of humor.
He was not good at romantic
portrayals and his dancing
ability was, well, forgettable.
As chances for hero dimmed,
he resorted to playing characters,
which reflected his real age.
Here too, he resorted to lacing
the character with humor.
Malabar police, Veeran
(which marked the reentry
for Seetha), Adithadi
are the examples. Satyaraj’s
latest release 6’.
2’’ has not
scorched the box office. But
there seems to be no dearth
of roles for him. He is busy
shooting for Shakthi Chidambaram’s
Englishkaran. Satyaraj
has the habit of spending
a summer vacation at his own
estate in Coonoor. To enable
him to do the same this year
also, the director speeded
up the shooting by splitting
the crew and work was finished
just in time. So, Satyaraj
will have the luxury of his
vacation as usual. |
