how come nayanthara the most sought after heroine opf south indian cinema comes and acts with a b-grade hero like dhanush?

.

nayans enna avlo periya thillalangadiya?

remember she acted with simbu in vallavan

saying as though julia roberts acted with dhanush is a bit over board!

kadhal kondaen,thiruda thirudi,polladhavan were genuine hits!

kasthoori raja was not a great force in cinema industry.he made his son act not to make him a big star.he made him act as there was no hero for him to act at that time

so its foolish to say the stardom was thrusted on him

[TorryJens]

cinemalover
I agree with you 200% on Dhanush.
Each and every point are 100% true.

n 2007 deepavali dhanush's polladhavan was released in some 100 of TN big screens with more than 700 seats, it was not possible for anyone othet than the top 5 heros of kollywood(rajini,kamal,vijay,ajith and vikraam) After 6 flops (Or 5 if we leave DEVATHAIYAI KANDAEN), a film releasing in this much number of screens and that too after an utter flop called PEAS. YNM had also released in more number of screens.

Vivasaayi, enna kodumai ithu yes selva...it was said by him!

they ought to make a movie for their life...and actually selva directed the movie!

hey did it like a family movie...they made him act as he would ask no money and do whatever they ask...simple!

u could check dhanush interviews

[HedgeYourBets]

even surya become a top hero only after vel in 2007, as that film made him make inroads into B C centres of TN, before that he was more considered as a multiplex hero having a fan base in A centres.

so how will you explain dhanush getting as many theatres as surya who has already given half a dozen superhits?

[LottiFurmann]

dhanush b-grade hero vellam romba too muchu!

he has given

thulluvadho ilamai
kadhal kondaen
thiruda thirudi
devathayai kandaen
thiruvilayadal arambam
polladhavan

Now, Don't tell me that he made Dhanush to act only because of money. What about the other guys ? If he was really worried about money, they would have made selvaragavan as an actor in the film too. Ithellam sappa reason.. I am wondering whether KR really said that
What about the other guys in the film ? Couldn't he find any one else ?
Also, cinemalover is questioning the control one can have despite many flops. Simbu and Dhanush are one and the same in this.

rajni could be a factor...but how does that make dhanush a b grade hero

and rajni dint help him from the scratch...he was already an eshtablished hero with 3 silver jubilees under his belt

he gave silver jubilees without rajni support right?..ennamo rajni illama dhanush illainu pesuradhu romba over!

[9mm_fan]

=

IMO ,He is one with better expressing among young actors.

[doctorzlo]

Actually, both of you have forgotten what he is referring to. He is referring to the CONTROL AND POWER one can still have for his films despite so many flops. He attributes this to the screens and the box office manipulation through that.
For e.g., Jeyam Ravi's SaSu should have been running in more screens by now. It actually opened in less number of screens compared to YNM.
I think we can discuss on this CONTROL + POWER rather than on performance, hero type or not.

obviously the control and power from a rajni son in law could be very influencial!

but inspite of releasing in those many screens..polladhavan was a genuine hit...thats the point!

[Slonopotam845]

His silver jubiless before that
1) TI 2) Kaadhal Kondaen 3) Thiruda Thirudi
After this, it was followed by many flops. After this, Selva had even a dialogue in his movie PP "Kooda poranthathukku padam ellam edukka vendi irukku". Here and there some average movies. Actually, Thiruvilayaadal aarambam gave him a break. It got released on december (again in more number of screens). I would attribute TA as the starting point in which he started using RAJINI aggressively. I am not blaming him for that. He can do it. But how often and marketing his movies with rajini's banner.

I am not discussing about him as an actor since I have diff of opinion on that w.r.t to the roles

[Lillie_Steins]

jayam ravi's case

jayam
and kumaran ...... both films are home prodcution
and his next three, idhaya tirudan,dass,mazhai were failures.
then came unnaakkum ennakkum in 2006 a hit
and deepavali in 2007 also a hit
and santhosh subramanyam is a hit
so what inference youre getting
4 of his 5 hits were from his family.
does this a mark of a A level actor?

what had happened srikanth,shaam, prassnna etc.

[Ifroham4]

As I said, any film can become a hit and it is in the hands of the audience. But the growth and reach are something that won't come without any back. This is what he is referring to. Without that, Dhanush could have well become a prashanth or anyone of that sort. Now, he is projected as a hero with control over many screens. Logically or practically, it can't happen for a hero of his type. otherwise, Surya or Vikram would have got it much early.

[radikal]

atleast dhanush doesnt make his films ruun falsely and make an advertisement like it was a hit!

what im saying is rajni is using his influence in right way.he just made the movies release in many centres.but he dint make them run with money and make false reports like the movie was hit
