Vadivelu advices Vivek

Vadivelu, who has earned the sobriquet 'Vaigai Puyal' since he hails from Madurai, follows Koundamani's way of thinking that shouting out a piece of dialog automatically makes it funny. It is Vivek who is undoubtedly the biggest star on the comedy marquee today. He has been around for a long time too but it was the 1999 hit Vaali that brought him into focus. It's been fourteen long years since 'Vaigai Puyal' stationed firmly in Kodambakkam. So far he had acted in 325 movies. Now he is having 25 films in hand.


After Vivek changed track and become an 'Hero' Vadivelu is getting too many offers. In the posters of recently released Arjun starrer ,Giri, Vadivelu commands center space, Arjun, Reema Sen , Ramya are relegated into second place. This is due to the fact that, the main 'plus point' of the movie is Vadivelu's comedy. Vadivelu, to his credit, though he had scaled new heights, he still has few good humane qualities left in him. Many have tried to create enimity between himself and Vivek, he remains un affected and continue to be 'Mister clean'.

Recently, he called up Vivek and gave him a very valuable advice. "You(Vivek) are a good comedian; Just because you have started to act as hero, don't "Stop acting in comedy roles". And “Comedy has always been an inseparable part of tamil movies. Entertaining the audience is the primary purpose of movies and while any good movie can be entertaining, a successful comedy is probably at the top of the list as far as providing entertainment goes”. Vivek is 'touched' by this sincere advice. Whenever anybody asked Vadivelu, whether he is a rival to Vivek as a Tamil comedian, he answers nonchalantly" My color is black and he is fair, how can I be a rival to him? Lets hope that the comic well never dries up and we have a lot more laughs both in reel life and in real life.
