What is the first thing that comes to your mind when the word “Nakkal” , “Kannu” is uttered. No doubts whatsoever! Sathyaraj and his trademark satire jokes and remarks flash across through our memories. The ace actor celebrates his 59th birthday today, making his way into cinema with Sattam En Kayil and then made his mark as a villain. He probably is one of the early people in Tamil Cinema to have crafted a bridge between playing the antagonist and the protagonist as well, his transition was remarkable.

Some of his roles are power packed and sheer excellence : Amaithipadai, Thai Mamman, Mamman Magal, and then quite recently he has started essaying character roles which thump with the presence to quote : Nanban, Thalaivaa, Raja Rani. He is famous for his dialogue delivery and the charisma is unmatched. “Ennama Kannu”, a phrase that could bring down the floor and “Yen Charactere purunchika matingiriye” , all are golden words!

Well, join Indiaglitz in wishing this actor a wonderful birthday and hope he continues to entertain us more!
