THE DAY TAMIL CINEMA LOST ITS SENSE...

This very same day, seven years before, Tamil cinema lost its sense of humor. Born as Nageswaran Ceiyur Krishna, Nagesh went onto become the most celebrated actor- comedian the industry ever witnessed. 

Known for an unusual body language combined with the ability to emote a variety of expressions, Nagesh's numerous collaborations with Balachander are all classics and not forgetting to mention his sparkling performance in Kadhalikka Neramillai, the highly dedicated artist never had a dull face in his entire career.  

Also having his days as a successful hero, Nagesh became the busiest actor in tinsel town with more than 1000 movies to his credit. Giving a tough time for producers to buy his dates, Nagesh was one actor who could take up any kind of a role and excel in it.

So let's take the time to mark this day as the 'Humor Day' as paying a respect for the single most phenomenal force named Nagesh that entertained a generation of audience with memorable performances.
