Vellai subbiah was also one of the guys who used to come in side roles..bayangara expressions for him and his voice was also different

Soundar and Shanmugar impress us a lot

And there also used to be the guy who acted as meena's father in en rasavin manasile..avar pathale pavama irukkum

And this one Enakku oru unmai therinju aganum sami...- Recently this gentleman has been admitted to hsopital..thanks to the help from nakeeran magazine..actor sivakumar and a few others

ooyisthisbaas ? A well known stage artiste - who is a regular in SUNTV philips comedy countdown with Vennira aadai murthy(mostly he is with jolna pai) - he has come in some movies along with VAM. The guy is really very talented - but is not recognized well in TF wrld.

i donno if the thread is only about main supporting actors .... i get reminded of some names that frequently comes in most of the side roles:

ennatha kannayya - who got his name after the repeated dialogue of "ennatha solli ennatha senju" in an old movie - dont remember the name though

oru viral krishna rao - guess he is the guy who comes as Sri Devi's father in Varumaiyin niram sivappu ....

vellai subbaiah - the "thirumba thirumba pesara nee" poosari from the vadivelu comedy (enna kaiya pudichu izhuthiyaa ....

they cannot be called as side actors....right?

I first though if it meant MGR side actors or Sivaji side actors

MGR side

Thengai Srinivasan
Isari velan
etc.

Sivaji side
Sasikumar
Prem Ananth
etc.

.... just for fun ....

Seriously if it meant supporting actors -

S.V. Sahasranamam
S.V. Subbiah
T.S. Balaiah (multi faceted)
V. Nagaiah

the list is endless ...

I think Kameshratnam meant side actors not "character" actors. My take is when he mentions the likes of KK Soundar and SS, we should be talking of Peeli Sivams not Baliahs and MR Radhas http://www.discussworldissues.com/fo...s/icon_sad.gif

I think we should look at those fun candidates who pongufy more than kodutha kaasu at side actor level. Again that rules out AVM Rajan, because he was doing the same at main actor or main character actor level.
My nomination:
Peeli Sivam. pEr Sollum piLLaila oru road roller avara kolla varum bOdhu oru expression koduppAr pArunga.....EndA kamal vandhu kAppAtinArnu irukkum!

kalairANi qualifies but I think she got herself reasonably main character actor roles so that rules her out.

GM: inspector saar, you are love marriage or arranged marriage
Peeli: shut up I say !
