A rare personality
RANDOR GUY
IDHU RAJAPAATAI ALLA: by Sivakumar in Tamil; Translated by Malathi Rangarajan; Alliance Publishers, Old No 244 (New No 64), Ramakrishna Mutt Road, Mylapore, Chennai-600004. Rs. 600.
Sivakumar, one of the most successful star-actors of Tamil cinema, is a very rare personality in the field. Handsome and still looking young, he is fondly referred to as ‘Markandeyan' (one who ever remains ‘sweet 16'). Although he has given a large number of successful and critically acclaimed films, he remains the same old rural lad who came to Madras (now Chennai) years ago full of dreams. Professional success has not gone to his head. For one who wanted to be a painter, movies and stardom — public adulation and all that go with it — were perhaps not on the boy's mental horizon when he landed in the city.
