Actors or Super Stars or your “Heroes” can never save cinema. Mohanlal might be a good actor, but listening to his interviews and stuff, he doesn’t know a thing about cinema. Its the same thing with most actors anyway. They become famous for portraying a bunch of characters and people go crazy over them. But what the mass doesn’t realize is that all they do is just act. Thats their main involvement.

What we need to improve is good FILMMAKERS and good script writers first, above everything else.

Seriously, actors just get toooo much credit in Indian Cinema.

Why don’t we give more credit to the creators?

and I’m so tired of comparing acting skills btw actors?? Whats with that man?

Do you people like CINEMA (or your cool “heroes”) or what?

Mohanlal should take a break.

Every actor has a peak in his career, and Mohanlal’s prime was from the late 80′s to mid 90′s. Now he’s way past his prime. He’s lost most of his subtle expressions and his comic timing too. He is constantly hamming in his so called comedy movies. Its about time he stopped running behind teenage girls and accept mature roles like Amitabh Bachchan. But again, this will not happen as long as his hardcore fans want him to stay young forever. Like Mohanlal said in Udayanaanu Thaaram, there’s a limit for what make-up can conceal. The costly wigs and make-up are not helping Mohanlal to conceal his age anymore. The same applies to Mammootty & Suresh Gopi too.

Coming to the new generation, only Prithviraj & Indrajith have shown flashes of talent, with Prithviraj being a step ahead. Just the movie Vargam is enough to prove what Prithviraj is capable of. Since both of them are in their mid 20′s, there’s a long time for them to grow into mature and brilliant performers. They havent even peaked in their careers!! So, I’m more than willing to wait.

Thalappavu will be a hard hitting film. Hope Madhupal & Prithvi to deliver big time. The stills look promising too. It could create a political controversy in Kerala for its explosive subject. Lets wait and see.
