Memorable Vijay-Vadivelu combos that 'Mersal'ed fans!
Thalapathy Vijay is not only known for exuding mass appeal on the big screen, but also for his portrayal of comedy in an exceptional manner. Combine this with Vaigai Puyal VadiveluÂs bone tickling puns, catch phrases and whimsical humor, it is guaranteed to give you ripples of laughter.
With comedy king Vadivelu reuniting with Thalapathy Vijay after six long years in 'Mersal', Indiaglitz rues upon some noteworthy films where the duo has entertained fans with their performances.
Friends
Vadivelu's role as contractor Nesamani is one of the actorÂs evergreen comedy roles in his filmography. VijayÂs character Aravindan along with Suriya and Ramesh Khanna consistently arouse anger in Nesamani who is already grumpy and short-tempered. As Vadivelu pathetically deals with the trioÂs mischief, the film is a non-stop joyride filled with riveting comedy.
Pokkiri
Vadivelu teamed up with Vijay in the super hit film 'Pokkiri' directed by Prabhu Deva which released to commercial success. Vadivelu's performance as a pseudo martial arts instructor Body Soda not only created uncontrollable laughter in theaters, but also catchphrases like 'Vada Pochey' and 'Thambi tea innum varla' found their way into day to day conversations becoming suitable comebacks in fun situations.'
Kaavalan
Vijay's 'Kaavalan' directed by Siddique was a remake of the Malayalam flick Bodyguard had Vadivelu enacting the comic character of Ammavasai who continues to pester Thalapathy with his zealous yet annoying loyalty. The comedy scenes of this film were much appreciated especially the ones where Vadivelu misconstrues Vijay's philosophical quotes. It is also notable that the movie was selected to be screened in the Shangai International Film Festival.
Madhurey
'Madhurey' directed by Ramana Madesh had Vijay and Vadivelu teaming up again to give relentless comedy. Vadivelu's role in the film as Pandu cracked up the audience with unique body language and comic attributes. The filmÂs reception was exemplary so much so that it became the actorÂs first film to have its prints to be sold over 1 crore in the Coimbatore area.
Sachein
'Sachein' directed by John Mahendran is a romantic comedy film with Vijay and Genelia D'Souza in the lead roles. Vadivelu as Ayyasamy (Arnold) appears as a college grad who tries to impress Genelia DÂSouza and his hilarious performances in scenes with Vijay makes this film a fun ride. Vadivelu's slapstick humor combined with the film's relatable campus love made this film a commercial success at the box office.
Bagavathi
Thalapathy Vijay's 'Bagavathy' directed by Venkatesh had Vadivelu in dual roles as Vadivelu and Vibration. The scenes where the doppelgangers meet are hilariously scripted with each situation always ending in a bad note for Vadivelu. The film which saw a simultaneous release in Telegu and also dubbed in Hindi became a commercial high grosser and declared a superhit.
Vaseegara
'Vaseegara' is a romantic comedy film directed by Selva Barathy with Vijay and Sneha in the lead roles. Vadivelu plays the role of Kattabomman who goes on to torment Vijay's character right from day one. The duoÂs comic chemistry proved itself once again making this a film a well rounded drama interlaced with hilarious humour.
Sura
Apart from his exemplary performances in films, an interesting thing to note is the comic names he has in films. In ÂSura directed by S.P Rajkumar, Vadivelu plays sidekick to Vijay as Umbrella and as usual leave the audience laughing to his buffonery and naivete. Though the film was not commercially successful, the Vijay- Vadivelu combination demands one to revisit the film whenever one feels so.
Villu
'Villu' directed by Prabhu Deva had Vijay playing the role of Pughazh who wants to avenge his fatherÂs injustice and Vadivelu playing Maadasamy, an audiographer. The movie has numerous instances where the duo crack up the audience with their usual tomfoolery and gags that makes us giggle non stop.
Mersal
Vijay's 'Mersal' directed by Atlee is one of the biggest releases this year. This film is speacial as Vadivelu reunites with after long gap of six years. The film has Vadivelu playing an important full fledged role sharing screenspace with Thalapathy. 'Mersal' is sure to be a nostalgic and memorable experience for fans who have always loved the Vijay-Vadivelu combo.
