Ramesh Kanna was an associate under directors K.S.Ravikumar and Vikraman. With some goading from his mentors, he began to play comedy roles. He has worked with Kamal, Rajini, Prashanth and Vijay. He has worked in combination with Vadivelu and Vivek. His specialty is his dialogues and body language. Also he plays the city slicker and country simpleton with equal aplomb. After making a mark as a comedian, he is set to play the villain in Varappogum suriyane. We are sure he will do well in his new avatar also.
