It is this quality of his which has led to the making
of such lovely ‘feel good’ films like Azhagiya
Theeye, Mozhi, Kanda Naal Mudal etc. to name a few.
At this juncture it is definitely not an exaggeration
to credit this remarkable actor for having breathed
a whiff of fresh air into Tamil films.
Recently it has been reported that cinematographer Jeevan
of films like Kokki and Thirutham has approached Prakash
with a script titled Mayilu and after listening to the
story the latter has immediately agreed to fund the
film. The very fact that Prakash has decided to produce
the film itself gives a rough idea about the type of
the project. For a generation which has grown watching
Kamal and Rajni films, the name Mayilu will certainly
bring a wave of nostalgia as this is the name of Sridevi
in ’16 vayadinile’ the trendsetter of the
eighties. Like how the old Mayilu stole many a hearts,
let us hope this Mayilu also does the same.
