Karthi : The Complete Actor-Star
Today, amidst the birthday celebrations of Karthi, we take a look at how he is one of the few in the entertainment industry who is a very versatile actor and also blessed with a debonair charisma that makes him a true star.
Next only to Sivaji Ganesan
When Karthi, an erstwhile assistant director of Maniratnam chose Ameers Paruthi Veeran as his debut vehicle, few would have expected such a complete transformation of the urban son of Sivakumar into a rustic youth with no qualms about being bad. Karthis performance elevated Ameers daring venture into a cult classic and next to the legend, Sivaji Ganesan it is Karthi who made it big in his very first film receiving both critical acclaim as well as commercial success. His tremendous acting skills have been on display in films like Ayirathil Oruvan, Siruthai, Madrasand most recently in Thozha.
The debonair Swashbuckler like MGR
Karthi played a MGR fan in Ayirathil Oruvan and like his idol he too suits the debonair swashbuckler role to the T. The flamboyant screen presence of Karthi is evidenced in films like Biriyani, Alex Pandian and Siruthai.
Equal shades of Rajini and Kamal
Karthi effortlessly carries off the Kamal type role Kaali in Madras as well as the Rajini roles Rathnavel Pandian and Rocket Raja in Siruthai. The grouse is that he still has not got hold of more scripts to stake a permanent claim as the heir to the legacy of both the living legends.
The Comedy Effect
Karthi has huge comedy sense and has held his own against Santhanam in Siruthai, Alex Pandian and All In All Azhagu Raja. While as Rocket Raja he is a complete riot even in the flop M Rajesh movie his perfect impersonation of Prabhu in the flashback scenes brought the house down.
The Romantic Side
Girls went gaga over Karthi when he appeared as the star crossed lover in Paiyaa exhibiting sizzling chemistry with Tamannaah and in Naan Mahan Alla with Kajal Agarwal. Most of his romantic songs like Kannodu Kadhal vandhal, Adada Mazhaida, Adi Rakkamma Rakku Manasellam Mazhaiye and Naan Nee are superhits with Karthis impeccable chemistry with his leading ladies, Anushka, Radhika Apte, Hansika Motwani, Catherine Tressa and Lakshmi Menon.
The Action Hero
Karthi is very adept in the action scenes and most of his films contain long drawn out fights like the Rathnavel Pandian unfinished building fight in Siruthai, the long chase on foot and fight in Madras, the climax of Biriyani and Komban. He is one actor who with his hard work, successfully convinces the audience that he can indeed bash up any number of adversaries.
Versatility
Karthi has shown great versatility in portraying his characters. As Paruthi Veeran one cannot see him as anything else other than the Madurai ruffian without a conscience but in his very next film Naan Mahan Alla, he is the boy next door. Rathnavel Pandian of Siruthai is right up there with other famous filmi cops like Alex Pandian and Walter Vetrivel. The unscrupulous fortune hunter of Ayirathil Oruvan, the scheming Saguni, the reluctant action hero of Madras and his most recent subdued performance of the caretaker to a quadriplegic in Thozha stand testimony.
The Bright Road Ahead
After a brief down period Karthi has given three consecutive hits with Madras, Komban and Thozha. The road ahead looks super bright for the Star Actor as he has his biggest budgeted film of his career Kashmora under production and will be starring in his guru Maniratnams next film starting in July. A film with Vinod the talented director of Sathuranga Vettai and then there are also rumors of projects with Prabhu Deva and Atlee. We wish Karthi a super happy birthday and we hope he captures the highest place in the industry as a true Star Actor which he highly deserves.
