PR, r u talking abt Kamal??? Confused ....if so, he doesnt meet my minimum criteria of "bringing a change in tamil cinema"......... Very Happy  I guess it is best to let him be with his resume of tedious, run-of-the-mill films that haven't made the slightest ripple, either technically or artistically in Tamil film history. |

it has become a trend to over indulge everything on Kamal.
 yes, he is an actor par excellence. but giving him credit for everything is IMO, overdoing it. he has his limitations and plenty of that too, if anyone cares to discuss that. talking of good directors, there have been many. but bet you the likes of ameer, bala, selva ragavan will be forgotten over period of time. who would remain are those who have left an impact in TF history and those would be less than 10......

I see a great director in Kamal. But he is more of a brilliant story teller and an adequate director...so far. I believe if MarudhaNayagan happens, then he will join the list of greatest director ever. (I don't want to talk about Hey Ram, I got issues).
Otherwise, I agree with Joe on the list that is left out. Bandulu, APN, KSG and before them, Vassan (didn't he do Chandralekha, Joe?) and Nov, who directed Haridas? I also like to point out that MGR's Nadodi Mannan and USV, while only two, has great influence in the genre each represents. Especially Nadodi Mannan which is often spoken in the same list as other greats like Parasakthi or Uttama Puthiran. So, the list grows. In terms of being prolific and consistency in quality, I'd vote for KB. But if only Mahendran has done more films.... |

I think KB stood for nearly 4 generations ( 60s---2000 ) . That itself is an achievement . This man had the guts to script some unique themes. Famous for breaking the tradition.
Still fresh in mindset . Set the trend for small screen as well. Sridhar indeed is a genius but lost direction in the 70s. Most of his 70s movies were crap . So, he lost his consistency. BR was another trend setter but lasted a decade. MR - yes to a larger extent is still on . My vote is for KB. |

Each one has a special prescence of his own.
