Style & Trademark

Posted by Swamy Srinivasan aka Kittu Mama On 4:22 PM

Everyone should possess a style when it comes to being successful in cinema. Following others would just lead to nowhere. Atleast, it would make some mark so that one could remember in the future. Lets see some cine figures(not college figure) who are still recognized for their mere style. Ofcourse, when it comes to style, lets first start with Super Star.

1. Rajini
His fast talking and walking is a trademark.
Running fingers through his hair (Well, not possible now. But pannaalum naanga paapomae :-)
The trade mark laugh - ha haaaa haaa haaa ha ha
Kannaa, Jujubee, Kuzanthai are some more trademarks.
As mentioned by KK in comment - "Kanna aarulayum saavu aruvathilum saavu aniyaayathukku adi aagama adichu dhool kelappunu yenga amma solli irukaanga".

2. Kamal
His wide opened eye looks (Some may say he copies that from Alapacino)
His cyring is a trademark (i mean something like nayagan, mahanadhi type)
For an actor like kamal, he has definitely tried hard not to classify himself into a pattern. So kamal is just an exception from others.

3. Sathyaraj
His nakkal talking approach was simply new to tamil cinema and he is the king in that.
His ennammaa kannu is a trade mark.

4. Raghuvaran
His slow talking with stress to his words. (like -> I know I know I know, hey hey hey)

5. Goundamani
Totally a different comedian compared to anyone in the industry.
He yells a lot but it has been well accepted because of his modulation.
Leg kicking, Dei dakalti thalaya, Barota thalaya are all his trademark

6. Senthil
Playing low profile and being successful is very tough. Somehow, Senthil managed to do it.
A perfect combo with Goundamani
Annaee Annaee is his trademark

7. Vadivelu
A certain vedi velu thats rocking tamil cinema right now.
His lips closed crying ,Aaahaaaa, vanduttaanyaaa kitta vandhuttaanya pattern dialoguess are all some catchy trademarks

8. Karthik
hey enna panra nee, hey chumma chumma enna kichi kichi moottahae kind of dialgoues when spoken with vethala paaku in mouth , it is called karthik's trademark talk.

9. Prabhu
His dialogue deliveries if noticed would mostly be with pointed fingers, wherein he tried to copy that from his father Sivaji ganesan.
He is the first fat image guy in the industry that can dance very well.

10. Vijaykanth
His court scene dialogues, wall climbing fight sequences are trademarks

11. Chinni Jayanth
His haaaaaaan, some thaminglish dialogues(gummfaa ka gumm) is a trademark

12. Vivek
Another rocker in tamil cinema right now.
His message oriented comedy approach is by itself a trademark.
His crying like dialogue delivery (though might look like raththak kanneer m.r.radha) is also his trademark.

13. Sivaji Ganesan
A massive performer.
yebbaaaaa enna theriyudhaaa daa, naaan dhaan sivaji ganesan vandurukkaen type of dialogues is his trademark

14. Siva kumar
elaaarayum yaemaathittu enna mattttum ippadi solradhu thappu illayaaa type of dialogues is his trademark.

15. Venniraadai moorthy
Thambrriii, Brrrrr, Drrrr kind of kutharai kanaippu sounds is his ultimate trademark. A different thought i would say that he chose this way to make a mark :-)
His double meaning dialogues are the next best after V.K.Ramasaamy

16. Praksh Raj
A very good character artist.
His Chellam, Chellam has become a trademark.

OK, the list can be never ending. Even Loose mohan has a style (onnium onnium moonu type), Thengai seenivaasan (Jabukku jakaan jikkaan type) etc., Namitha also got a trademark. She loses all the dresses frequently with that innocent paappa look.

All the above said are remembered for their own style. I know its not a complete list but just to show how Style can prove to be effective. Anyone got more, feel free to add :-)

    Kittu, you could have tried your hand in mimicry :)

    Super star's Kanna dialogue... like for example...

    aniyaayathukku adi aagama adichu dhool kelappunu yenga amma solli irukaanga" :)

  10. Shiva Said,

    Kittu, you have captured the trademark of every actor in the list so well. You post shows how individuality can make someone successful. It's true that Kamal has never created a trademark for himself, for his itention would be the trade mark of the character rather than of himself. Enjoyed the post.
