Take it for granted its patently women audiences making a film, an actor or an actress successful. Merely, that’s the plain reason why many actors don’t make it big in film industry despites being so stylish and beautiful in looks.
Recently, our officials had analyzed from women audiences of all centres from multiplexes till local-single screened theatres. Of course, we had to believe the statements that their all-time favourite is yesteryear actress Late Silk Smitha.
She was the only actress in the history of Tamil Cinema who has won appreciations from women audiences. Any idea about who do they consider to be the worst actress right now?
It’s none other than ‘Nayanthara’. Well, their comments are more commendable as those are the real facts … ‘She has lost her good looks and showcases her with an underrated performance’…
Nothing less than the leading lady
80s top actress who was ruling queen of the silver screen, actress Radha, wants to come back to Kollywood. She was acting in Tamil and Telugu movies and she has given some of the best blockbusters.

80s top actress who was ruling queen of the silver screen, actress Radha, wants to come back to Kollywood.
She was acting in Tamil and Telugu movies and she has given some of the best blockbusters. Not only she wants to come back Radha is looking for meaty roles, so talented director Cheran approached her with an offer for his movie Pokkisham.
Radha, however, demanded a fee which was equal to what the leading lady has been getting, so director Cheran went back with disappointment.

With Pongal releases shoring us on big surprises, here goes the list of Top 5 movies of the season. Uh-huh! There are certain releases withstanding the big tickets making its way on the screens and that’s something great.
1. Kadhalna Summa illa - Wondering why so? Not a big flick with superstars on title cards and still it gratified to the tastes of audiences across all centres. A cool journey for couple of hours that makes you feel worth watching for the pennies paid. Actor Ravi Krishna does a decent job and debutant Sarvanand deserves the same pat.
2. Villu - Vijay’s performance is top-notching, but the last 30mins of the flick scatters everyone’s attention with annoying factors. Nayanthara has signs of spelling a matured performance. Prabhu Deva fails to deliver the same show he did with ‘Pokkiri’.
3. Padikadhavan - Though multiplex audiences have no idea about turning for this film, it’s doing well amongst B and C centres. Wanna watch this film? Leave your cognizance outside the theatres and don’t look out for logics.
4. Abhiyum Naanum - Why the film fails to pick anyone’s interest is that it has got ‘Too-sweet features’. Radha Mohan hasn’t penned any twists and turns or obstacles faced by the protagonist. Moreover, the film is a remake of Hollywood film ‘Father of the Bride’.
5. Poo - Though not doing extremely well at box office, the film has won critical acclaims for everyone involved with this. A bedazing debut by Parvathi and she is sure to bag the best awards. Srikanth underplaying his character gets him deserved of special pat.
