Tamil Film Heroes

Tamil Film Heros
If you are a Tamilian and have been watching movies in the last 10 years or so, it would have disgusted you to find that unlike in the past, anyone and everyone has started acting as heros in films. It appears that to be a film hero, like to be a politician, there are no qualifications or eligbility criteria.
On the basis of my own yardsticks such as ability to differentiate between characters portrayed in different films, ability to characterise the roles, ability to show emotions and feelings associated with the character, proper dialogue delivery, decency of expressions etc., I feel that there are only very few actors who can be considered fit to act as heros in Tamil movies presently. They are: (1) Vikram (2) Madhavan (3) Arjun
On the other hand, there are many, who must be discouraged from acting as heros in films. I don't want to take names for the sake of not hurting them but I can give a clue - most of these are sons of film personalities! These fellows are churning out unbearable junk repeatedly and I sincerely sympathise the film going public in Tamilnadu.

Hai ram, I agree with you in one sense. But i dont think it is any different in other indian movies as well, and not just restricted to tamil movies. Can you tell me one actor who is a hero because of his acting talents. Just fair skin and good looks does not make a good hero, if that is what you want a hero to be.

Let anyone produce films, have anyone to direct them and make anyone their heroes and heroines. The power is with the movie-goers to choose their favourites. After all it is quite a market-place situation, is it not?
