'chiyan' vikram is putting in a lot of efforts. I hope his performance is as good as it was in "sethu", or even better. I consider Vikram as the only actor deserving any mention after kamal, Rajni (vaazga super *).
Ofcourse due credit to all the attempts by vijay and Ajith.
Good luck Chiyan.

At risk at getting blasted for this, please don't include Rajni in the list of the actors. He is the superstar but not a super actor.
Vikram is doing good films now. That's nice

Kasi is a big hit in telugu that had remake in tamil and hindi directed by same director who direct the original version.For tamil Vikram is hero with Divya Madhavan(telugu actress) and for hindi version Vikram role played by Dashing Amir Khan and others to be announced soon.

Hey guys,
At the risk of being beaten to death, I suggest you see the original malayalam movie behind 'Kasi' and compare the performance of 'Kalabhavan' Mani and Vikram, in a competitive. Mani was not considered a good actor like Mohanlal and Mammooty before release of VLPN - The original of 'Kasi' - the title is too long to expand :o)
Now he is considered as one of the best ones. He has done a really great job in the movie. When you are seeing don't divide yourself as a Tamizhan or Malayalee. Enjoy the film as an Indian ;o)
Besides Vinayan seemed not interested in making the movie in Tamil, because he didn't believe Vikram could do it. Finally he had to, when he enacted a song sequence from the original. It seems Vikram saw the original movie 5 times before agreeing. Should be worth a film!
Peace,
Eswar

High risk dude.. depends on what u consider actingg.. Makin it really irritating to sit through 120 - 180 minutes of utter non-sense ?
No doubt kmal is a great actor but don't shadow super *s acting prowess. ok...okk... not an other kamal vs rajni.. here..
all said, once again wishing Chiyan all the best, who knows he may really outperfom the mallu actor..

KAASI - Ilaiyaraaja
Directed by - Vinayan
Five Star Audio
Side A
------
1 En Mana Vaanil - Hariharan - Mu.Metha
2 Punniyam thedi - Hariharan - PazhaniBharathi
3 Rokkam Irukkira - Hariharan, Sujatha - Muthulingam
Side B
-------
4 Maanutholu - Hariharan - Pulamaipithan
5 Aathorathile - Hariharan - Pulamaipithan
6 Naan Kaanum - Hariharan - Mu. Metha
The cassette cover states "Only film with all songs sung by Hariharan". After a looooooong time, an IR album without Bhava! And no IR sad song! The lyrics are of fairly good quality, and HH does a fair job.
My first impression is that the whole album has a similar feel/mood to 'Chinnathambi' which might not instantly excite the 'classy' segment of IR fans, but could play out in the street corners and tea shops for a long time to come. If the movie does well at the box office as expected, IR will walk away with a long-awaited blockbuster. Another 'Chinnathambi'? Time will tell...

Dear friends,
A few days back (all these days, for about 6 days, I got detached from NET ~~~!), I had gone thro' our dynamic forum usually as I do, and came across, a posting which criticised, Maestro's New "Kasi", declaring it to be a "scrap composition, recycled stuff, nothing offered new from Raaja etc".
I read negative comments abt the album on the whole. So, I was a bit down hearted, with a thought pestering me "Is Kasi that stale ?"
I have no aversion to Hariharan's voice but I can't welcome him singing all the songs in an album.
With this kind of thoughts, I gave an ear to Kasi, mind u at 8.00 PM(this time is not at all conducive for making an impression on first hearing of any album , after a day's exhaustive work, IMO).
Friends, believe me, each song simply got into my head at the very first listening, and I felt freshness in each song with the mark of Raaja and Yes, Raaja waved his wand. I don't agree, that it is resembling Chinnna Thambi (Chanti in Telugu), Its different totally in treatment and orchestration and also Hariharan's rendition. But still I yearn for Balu's voice in the album, which definitely lacks that extra lustre without him!!!
Finally, I had to simply LAUGH AWAY all those inconspicuous negative statements.
(Perhaps, the comments were posted in a hurry as if they would miss posting in the forum for ever)
Note: Yankee dudes, cool up ur minds before making unscrupulous remarks!!!)

Just saw Kaasi and was really taken by Vikram's great performance that can't be described in 2 lines!! Do you know what sort of feeling is flowing in me?? If possible I would like to see Vikram now in this moment.. Just want to tell him this: Vikram, what have we done to get an actor such brillant as you?! Of course we've done nothing but your achievements are incredible, there are no words to describe this feeling! Words have lost their power!!! It's all because of YOU!! Because of you Kaasi!!

Kasi - The best acting I have seen in my last 10 years. Excellent VIKRAM. Shivaji & Kamal potrayed some blind man roles, but VIKRAM lived in it. The another hero of the Movie is Maetro.Songs are excellent. Especially, En Mana Vanil, Rokkam Irukkira etc. BGM is 'nothing but excellent'.
Director Vinayan and Cameraman did some wonderful job in the movie.

I didn't listen to Kasi songs before I went and see the movie a week back. The songs were really good and were appealing and apt to the situation. I don't know why but I like Punniyam thaedi Kasikku povaar song very much.
After a very long time all the songs in a movie had very good lyrics kudos to Mu.Metha, PazhaniBharathi, Pulamaipiththan and Muthulingam. The tunes were very nice and soothing, should i have to say this? unnessary isn't it.
