Rajini'ya vida periya Hero naanu appdinnu Heroism kaamika thudikkira Poatti thaan muthal kuzhappam Hope you mean 'commercial hero' ,not just 'Hero' ..Even if 'commercial hero' ,kamal was once bigger than Rajini and he himself wished to choose a different path after he tasted enough success ..So it is not something happened without his wish ,IMO.

Rajini'ya vida periya Hero naanu appdinnu Heroism kaamika thudikkira Poatti thaan muthal kuzhappam RR - Of course, as an actor, Aandavar is a miga periya hero than Rajni! Or for that matter, Kamal is a miga periya hero than any other Tamil actor till date! So, Kamal has no point to prove there to anyone!

Except Sivaji Ganesan, it's a cardinal sin to compare any other Tamil actor with Aandavar!

Cricket Batting-la Aandavar - Sachin Tendulkar
Cinema Acting-la Aandavar - Kamal Haasan!

Commercial Hero thaan! He changed his path since it was not anymore viable and not because he wanted to come out of that image and do only meaningful cinema's
i can give you tons of examples wherein there would've been a conflict within himself - between Kamal the Actor/Hero and kamal the Creator/director and its really sad to note that always kamal the Actor/Hero has won. Once in my lifetime I wish to see kamal the creator/Director win over the Hero in him.
The yearning to showcase the hero/heroism is still in him. Better he acts a 'Perarasu' movie once for all and get overdosed... so that we are left only with kamal the Creator

The last slide in the opening credits have ezhuthi iyakkavar: kamal Haasan. Which is what he is referring to. I was annoyed with the term "interfering actor". For heaven sake, this chap was dropping the name Mel Gibson a few paragraphs ago.

After the fatuous name dropping, pretentious insights and the oh-so-clever-title, he finds fault with narcissism. Hayyo hayyo.

[Big A]

"Rajini'ya vida periya Hero naanu appdinnu Heroism kaamika thudikkira Poatti thaan muthal kuzhappam" - i honestly dont think so! if that were the case, Kamal wud hav played it safe rather than soliciting rajini to take up the 'hero' mantle when rajini was primarily doing the bad guy's role in the 70s!

The essence of the Article as I perceive is that the author wants the Creator Kamal to be unleashed from the bounds of Actor Kamal.
Your POV may be that he had some malicious intent in writing that article defaming Kamal.

The yearning to showcase the hero/heroism is still in him. Better he acts a 'Perarasu' movie once for all and get overdosed... so that we are left only with kamal the Creator Until now Kamal the Actor has more fans than Kamal the creator ..It won't change in one night ..Moreover ,Kamal the creator has no age restriction ,whereas Kamal the actor has age restriction in this commercial industry .

Just for few ARivujeevigal like you ,Kamal cannot just ignore His fans of kamal the actor ,though he is trying to convert them to fans of Kamal the creator ,IMO .

I know people one day crticise kamal for not being brave as a creator ,next day will make fun when he is commercially defeated for his creative effort .Kamal must be careful with these people

Yes RS. And the malice was overarching in the article.

Even I - and many others here - look forward to the greater productive years from Kamal the writer/director. But that is no reason to write trash about Kamal the actor just to make that case. Write from the first line it was an extremely flawed case he was trying to build.

[brraverishhh]

The predominant intention in the article is to take ingenuine potshots at Kamal the actor which is ofcourse the complaint of us. Adhu eppadi unga kannukku mattum theriyama pochunnu engalukku theriala

Adhu seri neenga eppadi padikanumnu naanga ungalukku advise pannaleeyae. Why dont u follow the same :P

And kamal should've thought he Played it Safe... During that 'Ilamai oonjaladugirathu' Episode :P
Bairavi released few weeks b4 IO (If Iam not wrong) marking the entry of the 'Superstar' and it was not kamal who solicited this

[Big A]

Kamal did NOT ask or advice Rajini to play as a hero
