Anderson... Sam Anderson! :)

Actors esp those starred in Tamizh movies come in 3 flavors. First flavor - actors who dedicate themselves and provide the best possible output to their fans, Second flavor - those who don't care about what the audience expect and perform monotonous roles which mean nothing, Third flavor - actors (?!) who entertain the viewers to the best by comedy of errors. The real intention of the actor would be to convey something serious like a deep misery due to the death of their family members (usually mothers or sisters killed by Pakistan terrorists) or extreme patriotism or some dialog that is supposed to prove their valor; and the audience would burst out laughing seeing them.

The third category is quite interesting and so far the field that had equal competitors like Captain Vijayakanth (Balayya was competing with him in Tollywood), Vijaya T Rajendar, Jitthan Ramesh and other great comedians is now under the threat of a monopoly. Yes... it's because of the entry of the universal h(z)ero, Michael Sackson of South India, King of x-pressions, winner of hearts, next category 3 superstar - Sam Anderson... His latest or rather the only movie 'Yaarukku Yaarao' (Who is for whom to translate literally) won millions of hearts across TamilNadu and the viewers are delighted to have seen the best comedy movie of the recent times. I'd say 25% credit goes to the director who created the 'scientist' role for him in the movie and provided him with a chance to exhibit the hidden talents in him including dancu, x-pressions and more than anything else his romance and handsome features that make a heroine and a hero(ine) to fall in mad love with him! Right from frame one, Sam Anderson did an excellent performance which could be described as nothing but a perfect entertainment. Most importantly, one needs to understand and appreciate the guts it takes for a guy who looks like a Beeda stall owner to show up in a movie and entertain people. The performance goes to the peak in the climax where our h(z)ero applies his brain and comes up with an idea that makes the heroine fall in love with him all over again, ending in the most revolutionary marriage the world has ever seen where the couple use a cross as their maangalyam, the heroine takes the husband's position and our super hero taking the wife's position, coming around the red Benzu car that took the place of the holy fire! Even though his noble intentions were not well understood by a lot of people today I'm sure Sam Anderson would become the next category 3 Superstar overtaking Vijayakanth and VTR by a huge margin. For those who weren't fortunate enough to see the amazing performance of our super hero, I've embedded a couple of sample videos as my meager effort to spread the light cast by him!
