Kamalahasan

@@ +1 @@
+'''Kamalahasan (b. 1954)'''
+
+
+Tamil star and a major figure in Malayalam,
+Telugu and briefly in Hindi cinemas. Born in
+Paramakudi near Madurai Dist., TN. Joined
+films aged 6 in Bhimsingh’s Tamil films
+(Kalathur Kannamma, Parthal Pasi Theerum)
+and in Sethumadhavan’s Malayalam Kannum
+Karalum. Rediscovered as an adult by K.
+Balachander (Arangetram), featuring
+regularly in the director’s 70s films, in his
+Telugu hit Maro Charithra, and in its equally
+successful Hindi remake (Kamalahasan’s Hindi
+début) Ek Duuje Ke Liye. Tried to shift to Hindi
+cinema, playing the Chaplinesque hero in
+Ramesh Sippy’s love triangle Sagar, but was
+not successful. Acted in some of I.V. Sasi’s
+Malayalam films but broke away from his
+established image in K. Vishwanath’s Sagara
+Sangamam, astounding viewers with his
+dancing skills in the difficult Bharat Natyam
+style (he was trained as a dancer by K.J. Sarasa
+and had worked as a choreographer in films).
+Following the ribald, wordless comedy
+Pushpak, he imposed yet another image with
+the Brando-inspired starring role in Nayakan.
+Since then performed, like De Niro, major
+physical transformations (e.g. the dwarf in
+Apoorva Sahodarargal), combining a light
+‘heroic’ style with a heavier naturalism for older
+characters. Started his own production unit
+with Raja Parvai. Has produced some (under
+his Rajkamal prod.) and scripted or shared
+script credit for several of his recent films:
+(Apoorva Sahodarargal, Guna,
+Mahanadhi). Acted with Sivaji Ganesan in
+another Godfather adaptation, Thevar
+Magan, which he scripted and produced as
+well. The film allowed Kamalahasan to return
+to the theme of feudal landlords in his native
+Madurai landscape which, he claimed, recalls
+Sicily.
