‘Ovvaru Manushanukkum Ovvoru Feeling’ – this punch dialogue leaped laurels for Santhanam as for the first time a comedian had the chance of uttering the lines instead of film’s hero. Indeed, lead character Jeeva himself recognizes the feel during the second half that won claps at theatres.

2009 hasn’t been a favorable year for existing actresses – Trisha, Nayanthara, Namitha and Shriya Charan. Despites, some of the media channels (supportive advocates) had mentioned these actresses to be the Top 5 ones of 2009, it’s really pathetic to witness they couldn’t deliver a single hit.
So, who’s making it big as an actress amongst Tamil audiences now? Obviously, it’s none other than actress Ananya from God’s Own Country, who made her debut in ‘Nadodigal’. Her characterization in the film as a typical countryside girl has impressed wide range of audiences in both cities, towns and villages. Now, she has been striding as a winner with more offers and yet remains selective on her roles.
The actresses on the top of charts are Abhinaya (Nadodigal), Siva Manasula Sakthi fame Anuya and Neetu Chandra of ‘Yaavarum Nalam’…...
