Actors
join the bandwagon of playing
brother while still playing
hero roles
October
10, 2005
There
is an unwritten rule
that actresses who
get married cannot
play romantic roles.
Therefore, they settle
down to play sister,
sister-in-law or mother.
For example, Nadiya
created quite a sensation
as the chic and urbane
mother in M. Kumaran.
Sukanya has played
the sister-in-law
in a few films. But
a hero who has hitched
on to the bandwagon
of the so-called character
role is
Parthiban. He will be
playing Trisha’s
brother in Something,
something, unakkum enakkum.
Incidentally, K.Bhagyaraj
who was also a popular
hero and director will
be playing Dhanush’s
father in Asokamitran.
This is a healthy trend
as the industry will
get to benefit from
different aspects of
their creative talents.
Let us also inform a
juicy bit of news that
Meena has been approached
to play Srikanth’s
sister-in-law in a yet-to-be-titled
film. Similarly, Roja
who paired with Prashanth
in Chembaruthi will
play his mother in a
new film to be directed
by hubby, Selvamani.
