New lease for Nepoleon

  • IndiaGlitz, [Friday,October 27 2006]

For long he has been the archetypal aruval-wielding archetypal rustic ruffian on screen.

But there are other facets to Nepoleon. His latest release Vattaram has shown that. Cast in a suave and savvy operator role, Nepoleon has distinguished himself with aplomb. It has got him plaudits by the bucketful.

Naturally the tall actor is happy that it has given him a new lease of life in the film industry.

The bigger news for him is that Kamal Haasan, who appreciates his skills, has cast him in his Dasavatharam.

Kamal had played ‘Nepoleon’ in a pivotal role in his Virumandi.

Now in his Dasavatharam, he has cast him in the role of a king. Yes, there is a segment in the movie that has some Raja-Rani kind of episodes. Nepoleon is happy to be part of Dasavatharam too.

The tall man is now surely getting career heightening roles now.
