Inspired by - 1
Ill start with the proceedings with this celebrity with whom I have spent a lot of virtual time in recent times. He is none else than our own ulaga nayagan, padmashree Dr. Kamal haasan.
The most important characteristic of him that attracts me is his passion. His passion for cinema and the extents to which he goes to attain perfection in his chosen field simply amazes me. In order to get a hoarse voice in a scene in some movie, he apparently went and shouted into a plastic bag for about 3-4 minutes before the scene. What passion!!!! When I am bored and dull, I do a few things to cheer mysely. One of them is to pick up a video that features him from youtube and listen to him :). I am completely enamored by Mr. Ulaga Naayagan.
As a child, I had at least 100 different ambitions. I used to imagine myself in each of those roles. When it came to movies, I once tried to list down the top 25 tamil movies that I would love to direct (aaah!! what would we do without imaingation). Guess what, 12 of them were ones that featured kamal hassan.
Yes, he is a tremendous actor with great skills but its the passion that stands out (even if you don't understand tamil, a cursory glance at these videos will be sufficient to know about this masterful craftsman). Though passion is no subsitute for skills, I believe skills will come with passion but the converse is NOT true. Cut to real life and I find him to be on of the most level headed celebrities. When tamil movie stars got together to protest against Karnataka first for water sharing issues, and similarly recently on the issue of the tamil struggle in Sri Lanka, Kamal's speech was one of the most mature and well thought out. It was so much unlike the many other dumb heads who were spitting venom with their careless words.
Three cheers to ulaga naayagan!!
