Sorry Maddy,That was the beginning of the era which we call it cinema ... today !Tis definitely not a waste of time discussing oldies, which i feel are real goldies ... that doesnt mean, am not talking about today ! There shld be a perfect mix n no comparison ! Well FYKI, cinema came from DRAMA ! Sivaji is ofcourse a drama artiste.... btw what according to you is overaction ? What he did may not be your viewpoint today, but he was admired for that on those days .... Joe am i right ? Well Maddy, definitely not to hurt ur feelings ... ofcourse not to forget that i am too in the current generation ... but we all have evolved from time
