He is without much argument
the actor in Tamil cinema
with the most expressive
and prominent pair of eyes.
He can put those eyes through
a varied range of emotions.
The terrorizing glare of
‘Kothala Thevan’
from Virumaandi is etched
in memory, while the gullible
stares of the petty thief
in Majaa still amuses us.
His blind RJ performance
in Raman Thediya Seethai
showed us that he can do
just as well without the
help of his expressive eyes.
