Are Arjun, Ajith, Mohan Lal & Sathyaraj ‘Actor’ or ‘performer’?
Are the terms ‘Actor’ and ‘Performer’ mean the same? Not at all, they have a great deal of difference. An actor is more concerned about his image on the screen and how their fans perceive him, whereas a performer is the one who never cares about his image and gets moulded to whatever role one plays. It may be the role of a protagonist, a character role and sometimes even negative role and a person can be termed as performer who can stand on any of these shoes.
In Bollywood, you see lots of performers including Bollywood Shehanshah Amitabh Bacchan, Hrithik Roshan, Ajay Devagan, Shahid Kapoor and many other leading actors who have played all sort of roles. But in Kollywood, all the actors are most of actors who are just able to do only with hero roles.
One such illustration would be Action King Arjun who refused to play role though it was the most demanding character in the film ‘Sarvam’ directed by Vishnuvardhan. Also Sathyaraj was offered to play negative role in Shankar’s Sivaji and didn’t want to take up the offer. Sathyaraj had a small and silly reason saying, “I didn’t want to take up the negative role since I would lose my image that was formed in Periyar”.
Even Mohan Lal refused to play negative role in Vishnuvardhan’s film and what about Ajith? How can we see this charming actor in negative role? Well, it’s not about playing negative role, but he refused to shave his head for the film Ghajini and this is something ridiculous to hear it from a leading actor.
In these aspects, I have few stars that despites being regarded as choco-chap of filmdom have turned playing down negative role. Probably we are sure you would have known them well, Abbas and Prasanna. These guys had crazy fans and set to be a heartthrob among missies. However, with more boldness they never considered these things and all that they thought of was a strong characterization to perform. Performance of Abbas in Saadhu Miranda and that of Prasanna in Anjathey are the talks of the town now.
On this part, I feel delighted to mention about Vijay. With enormous titles ‘Ilayathalapathy’ and ‘Naalaiya Superstar’ conferred on him, he didn’t feel it as a great deal to perform negative role in his previous flick ‘Azhagiya Tamizh Magan’. Never mind about the success and failure and its director who is supposed to be blamed. Vijay had indeed gained more credits on the negative role more than that of his role of protagonist.
If you agree or disagree with our exclusive, then come up with our own views that should be strong advocating for, just do it right below in the feedback box.





















always ajith is the best as a performer and as an actor he showed itself in 9 times double acting and multiple roles in citizen so in future there is no another super star and there will be no ultimate star like thala ajith
I think the person who wrote this must be a fan of vijay.Thats what he is giving applause to Vijay for his performance ! in ATM. Do you remember a film named Vaali starring Ajith.What kind of role did Ajith play in that movie.or you watch tamil movies or not.Comparing Vijay with Mohan Lal and sathya Raj? How can you compare Mohan Lal with Vijay.Sathyaraj dint say that acting as Villain in Sivaji will affect his Image.wat he said neither there is scope to act in that nor to deliver his style of dialogue.Got it.Tell me one single film that vijay has changed his get ups.Without knowing the fact simply says that Ajith refused to shave his head for Ghajini.That is not reason behind that Ajith took the desicion to not to act in Ghajini.Did you see RED whethear he had a funk type of hair style in that film. Except the song from Bhagavathi did vijay appear differently in any of his films.And you people hail him as Naalaiya Super Star very funny.Good Imagination.There of lots and lots of cinema sites which give correct and latest informtion about Tamil Filmdom.I found Kollywood today is the only site which take news from other sites and publish them in their sites. If ypu publish on your own and it will like the one you published this funny one comparing useless vijay with acting greats and wat u said `PERFORMERS` such as Mohan Lal and Sathyaraj.Better write true facts or otherwise dont write.sit Idle.Dont publish these kinds of foolish,Rubbish Bull Shit things in your and let your image fall down.
how can u all can publish this kind matter
it is their decision to choose the film
if sathyaraj ask rajini to be his villan is rajini wiling to act?sathyaraj much more better see his thangam ,9 rubai note and kannamochi ennada
arjun already busy with his commitment his chinna did not do well because his fans not wiling to see him in anti -role
u said ajith not wiling to shave his head how bout his red nad about negative role how bout his valee,attagasam,varalaru and billa?u guys if dont know wat is the real reason better dont publish kind silly matter mohanlal mayb not comfortable with anti-hero role for his age
if u compare vijay with this all actor sure they are the best
Guys, don’t feel about this type of silly article. The main aim of the pulishers that “multiple the number of HITS(Views)of the site”.
How dare you(kollywoodtoday.com) to compare vijay with Ajith and Mohan lal. Vijay is useless fellow. He knows only dance.Ajith is a good actor. Ajith got 2 or 3 FilmFare Awards and lot of Awards. Do you know about Tamil Industry? In Valee,Attagasam,Varalaru and now Billa Ajith has played negative role.These movies are all BlockBusters..What do you said Ajith hesitate to play in small role. Do you know onething after big hit of Vaalee, Ajith played a small role in Nee Vaaruvai Ena with Parthiban.
Fucking site, If you like vijay and his giving money,post the article to build up his image. Otherwise Don’t compare this silly fellow with legends KAMAL,MOHAN LAL AND ARJUN. First remove this article. otherwise you will face lot of problems..
Guys Please try to avoid to read kollywoodtoday news. Thats better. I simply say this site as stupid and shit…loosu pasanga….
kollywood today, is it in this way that u promote (suck) ‘actor’ ?
i think the man who wrote this nonsense should first open his eyes!!
u talked that mr.vijay who did a flop movie with a negative role is a performer???!!!also the performance was ridiculous( speaking with an ‘Remo’ accent and acting stupidly)
do u know of an actor named Ajit??… the first who tried to do negative role and moreover where he succeed in it(Vaali)!!!
then comes Attagasam and most of all recently Varalaru…
the most stupid in this article is that u said Ajit didnt signed in Sarvam becos of beard, by the way growing beard is not a sign of becoming performer(also he did for Naan Kadavul)
ok leave Ajit! Vikram has done it (anniyan)and also Suriya (perazhagan). Even Simbhu!! all succeed exept vijay
how can a website write stupidly articles??!!is it to make war against fans?? NO sources.. Nothing to prove all the rumours!!
the man(?) who wrote this bullsh*t is a vijay fan , sure (’I’ feel delighted to mention about Vijay. With enormous titles ‘Ilayathalapathy’ and ‘Naalaiya Superstar’ conferred on him..)
…useless fellow …TRY TO ADMIT THE TRUTH ,MAKING SUCH KIND OF CRAPS AND POST TO WEBSITE WILL NOT PROMOTE YOUR ACTOR.
GUYS MUST READ THE FOLLOWING MY CMMENT FOR THE TRUTH
Dear critic, hope you dont really understand the meaning of an “actor” and “performer”. And i strongly belive that you are a vijay fan and i dont want to criticise on vijay because i’m a ture ajith’s fan.
First of all you said vijay has done a negative role in ATM and it is a delight full thing for you which means that you never watched the great VALLE, VARALARU, CITIZEN and MORE to come…… Moreover you mentioned AJITH refuced to shave his head in gajini being a vijay supporter you dont know the fact behind that issue , before gajini Ajith was preparing for nan kadavul and he started to graw his hair thats why he was maintaining the same grawn hair style in the movies like thirupathy, varalaru and paramasivan. Unfortunatly Ajith had to leave from nankadavul other wise thala would have done gajini. these unfortunate event that have happened to Thala that make people like you to criticise our thala without knowing the fact. Please dont ever compare Thala ajith with Vijay because every one knows that whos is the REAL performer REAL actor REAL human being.
You KT team know the real performer?. I think , KT didn’t see any tamil films. They might be a true vijay fans. It’s their loyalty to their star. But, don’t say any critics , comments abut other actors. each and every one is special in their acting.I request KT to not to publish this type of articles.
this is not a fair thing. ajith is such an actor who gave tremendous hits like valee, villain, varalaru, billa etc…
he is a real hero not like others who see their image to b maintained. if he is looking for image he would not acted in varalaru. so don’t post articles like this next time.
Hello KT Team, i think that to create and check the rivalry levels of the Two TOP heroes, u have published this article. You will be pleased to see the comments but its not good for u. As you can see
many of the comments are truly against you, so why dont you publish some good articles about the heroes Both Mr.Ajith and Mr.Vijay are sharing a competitive rivalry only in the movies not in the personal life why do you want to kindle the flames of rivalry in the hearts of their FANS.
Mr.AJITH has Taught them some Good Habits and Manners of respecting everyone, and that good quality will be demolished by such kind of articles, so say the universal truth dont publish ur personal comments
Finally We Thala Fans Can just comment on this, Not to fire at the guy or this website as i said earlier that damages the dignity of our THALA as well as ourselves, Whoever is against us we are with our THALA no doubt whether he is an actor or performer, moreover he is a great HUMAN BEING thats the word what everyone wants to hear in One’s LIFETIME
If Vijay is the Performer means its the best joke. Dont Compare Mohanlal & Sathyaraj with Vijay. He didnt change his getup in a single film. How much rupees Vijay gave for this article.
Hello KT members, I dont know why is that all are pouncing on your critics. See we all know that be it actor Vijay or Ajith or anyone who have mentioned here are all good human. Each and every one have doing social services to the needy and the poor. But that isn’t the matter when it comes to industry. Apart from their good heartedness, it is there very essential skill and boldness that is going to decide their passion for films. It is not a personal opinion of each star saying that they arent interested in playing negative role.
Well, one of my friend above as mentioned that Ajith has played negative role in Valee and Varalaru. That is a good point. But he doesnt actually know the story behind Gajini. Ajith witnessed a great flop with a shaved head in Red. This made him regret the offer that even Gajini would turn him down. So that was the actual reason behind Ajith dropping the project.
But it is a mentionable aspect that performers must strongly believe in the script and not in their image.
In this manner, I am trying to depict that Vijay is a great actor and not anyone else. He has his own style and AJITH has his own style and that goes the same with everyone…
This is Ganesh who typed the above statement. I am sorry for missing a word in the last para (not)
In this manner, I am not trying to depict that Vijay is a great actor and not anyone else. He has his own style and AJITH has his own style and that goes the same with everyone…
IF ONE HAD ATTENDED THE AUDIO RELEASE FUNCTION OF KANNAMOOCHI ENADA, YOU COULD HAVE HEARD WHAT SATHYARAJ HAD SAID. HE ADDRESSED THE GATHERING THAT DIRECTOR SHANKAR HAD APPROACHED HIM TO PLAY VILLAIN ROLE (INSTEAD OF SUMAN). BUT HE DIDNT ACCEPT THAT SINCE HE WOULD LOOSE THE IMAGE GAINED THROUGH THE FILM PERIYAR. NO MATTER OF HIMSELF PLAYING DIFFERENT ROLES IN KANNAMOOCHI YENADA, THANGAM, ONBADHU ROOBAI NOTTU OR ANYTHING ELSE. I FEEL THAT SATHYARAJ IS THE BEST ACTOR AMONG ALL THOSE WHO HAVE BEEN MENTIONED ABOVE. BUT IT WOULD HAVE BEEN MORE NICER IF HE ACCEPTED TO PLAY NEGATIVE ROLE IN THE MOVIE.
IF HE HAD ACTED THEN THE FILM WOULD HAVE RAN SUCCESSFULLY FOR ANOTHER 50 DAYS…
Has the editor forgotten that Ajith had donned negative roles in Vaali and Asoka?
Sathyaraj’s negative roles in many films before he became a hero?
This article is mere senseless.
ha ha ha….. that was a greatest comedy of the millenium…. vijay the monkey crap doin a negative role…. then u go and give him an award with ur name for wonderful(pul) performance….
heheheheheheheheheheh Vijay oru loosu payan …..
Nee potta article paaarthu ellorum kaari thuppuvaanga .
If you had said Kamal then it is Fine BUT VIJAY HAHAHAHAHHA HOHOHOHO
For your kind info there is nothing to praise abt vijay here.. did he do something diffrnt in ATM?? if paintin the face with coal is wat u called a get up change, then that s not at all required for him.. Please dont bringg ppl who hardly know to act under such performing topics..
stomach burning ppl who cant resist Thala’s success get the heck out of here.. uu r fit only for finding faults with ppl who are successful..
hehehe… had a gr8 laughter reading this article… usually u guys(kollywoodtaday.com) used to copy the news from other sites… hope dis is the 1st time you have come out wit your own article and it sucks like shit… tell me what does the term PERFORMER and ACTOR mean..?? i guess according to u PERFORMER is the one who does the -ve roles… if that’s the case then Ajith fills the bill perfectly. Haven’t u seen vaali,varalaru yet…?? Looks like ATM is the only tamil you have seen till date… vijay is the next superstar..eh..?? lol… Vijay performed well in ATM..uh..?? lol.. even vijay’s die hard fans will laugh at you.. OMG… So u mean to say mohanlal(who’s won 4 national awards) is not a PERFORMER and Vijay is a PERFORMER…?? either you must be a hardcore vijay fan or you must be one who doesn’t know anything about films/acting n other stuff… funny article… already your website is so weird.. don’t make it much more shitty with these kinda yucky articles… u copy and paste da news from sites and it sounds better than coming up wit our own article.
Hi
I request you to see the ATM again. After you will not feel like this. Please dont write article again.
Hey Ajith is d only actor in 2day’s generation to do mutiple character role of VILLIAN and Hero…….. by the way vijay is just a dancer, pls dont compare with legends like AJITH, Kamal, Mohanlal etc…..:x
This is totally a waste article. Ajit has done a negative character in valli even billa can be considered. what about the classical dancer character in the film varalaru. He is the real performer. Even you said something about sathyaraj denying the negative role in sivaji.That role has noting to point out. Who said you that Ajit denied the movie because for shaving his head. There was a problem between producer & director,for that reason the movie was dropped.
Ajith’s performance in varalaru as a villain is 100times better than all other actors performance mentioned above…del those objective lines u fools
ajith rocks this article is sucky.total bull shit.
ei enna pa….
