New
kid on the block but he is no spring chicken.
He knows a thing or two about acting. He was
given the best actor award at Cairo for his
performance in Ram. He is the most promising
actor in Tamil cinema and has already shown
that he is willing to experiment with different
roles. He has already established an image of
a star whose movies can pull family audiences.
His last release E stood out for its novel theme
and strong performances. He has a pretty even
spread of fans across A, B and C centers. Certainly
someone to watch out for. He has Tamil M.A.
lined up for release. His movies are made within
3.5 crores and sell for around 4.5 crores. Takes
home 40-50 lakhs for every movie.
