Poornima,
Very good posting. As a big thalaivar fan, I want both - the type of movie where you can scream your head off along with the rest of the fans and have semma ragalai from start to finish (like Basha). and the type where we get to see him in roles where he can explore, like the Vettaiyan role in CM, or some of the serious roles he did in 70s.

I think if he does movies more frequently, then the hype & fan-pressure will ease a bit; If the expectations are set right before the release, it could very well be done. There are young & talented directors like Bala, Cheran, SJ Surya etc. who he should work with...

One other thing, it does not matter whether it has been done before or not - it only matters if SS wants to do it.

They said he was too dark to be a hero
They said he did not look good
They said he could never dance
They said he was aging terribly & losing his hairline.

Thalaivar usually replies to these folks ONSCREEN! So he will, until he decides to retire - on his own terms!!!

Regards
