Earlier
he was doing an ad for Ponds shot by Santhosh Sivan
who later introduced Maddy to Mani Rathnam. At the outset
, he was called for the screen test for ‘Iruvar’.
But Mani said ,as he was looking for a different face
and he would surely call him for the next movie.Maddy
returned back disappointed but later as said,Mani called
him for the movie ‘Alaipauthey’,
and from there he is excelling in his own profession.
Maddy had a great welcome among the audience for his
first movie itself which created a place in the hearts
of the people. The next movie was Ennavale which did
not have a good reach. Subsequently the whimsical film
Minnale
made Madhvan as one of the top heroes of Kollywood.
He was also entitled as “Hrithik of Tamil Movie
Industry.”
He worked with many experienced directors including
K.B.Balachander and also done many big budget films.
The year 2002 was an enormous year for Maddy. His two
movies in that particular year were Kannathil Muthamittal
and Run.
Kannathil
Muthamittal
was a versatile film directed by Mani
Rathnam. The movie Run saw
a different Madhavan. The film was a great commercial
hit which was directed by Lingusamy.
Madhavan is very cautious in choosing his roles. He
has done a character role in the movie Layesa Layesa
directed by the veteran director Priyadarshan. His acting
in Ayudha
Eluthu was unsurpassed. Note,
Mani Ratnam has signed up with Madhavan for his last
three films. This shows the actor’s caliber.
His forthcoming projects in Tamil are Thambi directed
by Seeman and a bilingual film made in Tamil and Telugu
titled Arya directed by Manoj Kumar. The recent news
about Maddy is that he has got a baby boy. Let us wish
the hero with successes throughout his carreer!
