TAMIL SUPERSTARS
VS TELUGU SUPERSTARS |
|
Tamil cinema or Telugu cinema, the arguments and discussions have long been withstanding to determine which is better, but we at Behindwoods attempt to draw the similarities between the top stars of the two industries. The comparisons are made on various parameters such as fan base, appearance, career paths and choice of films. Read on to find out whom your favorite star has a likeness to.
MGR - NTR |
|
Darling Of The Masses ' The legacy of MGR and NTR is now worthy of history books. They captivated their audiences through movies addressing social issues and they managed to do the same with their public addresses sending the crowd into raptures. Their passing away was deeply mourned by one and all but their service to the people as an actor and a politician will never be forgotten. |
Sivaji Ganesan - Nageswara Rao |
|
Acting Encyclopedias ' Both Nadigar Thilagam 'Chevalier' Sivaji Ganesan and Akkineni Nageswara Rao have received the highest national recognition for an actor, the Dadasaheb Phalke award for their contribution to cinema. Both have essayed roles across various genres such as mythological, drama and social films but most of all their influence on subsequent generations of actors will be regarded as their greatest achievement. Their performances even today serve as lessons for aspiring actors.
|
Jaishankar - Krishna |
|
Classic Cowboys ' The late 70s witnessed south Indian cinema attempting Hollywood style action flicks and the 'go-to' men for these projects had always been Jaishankar and Superstar Krishna. While one became synonymous with cowboy westerns the other was the country's first special agent la James Bond. |
Rajnikanth - Chiranjeevi |
|
Icons ' No other actor in the south can generate the crowd swelling like the Superstar Rajnikanth and the Megastar Chiranjeevi. While one of them used it to fuel his political ambitions the other has everyone suspended in anticipation. This is the level of popularity and acceptance that every actor aspires to achieve in his career. |
Kamal Hassan - Nagarjuna |
|
Ageless Wonders ' Over the years Nagarjuna and Kamal Hassan have worn various looks and they pull it off with total aplomb. Like wine they get better and better with age and still looking classy and desirable as they were in their younger days |
Vijayakanth - Balakrishna |
|
Rural Kings ' Age has never slowed down Balakrishna (Ballaya) or Vijayakanth (Captain) as they continue to beat baddies into pulp while striving to uphold truth, justice and national pride. Both manage to bring the house down with their ferocious dialogue delivery and thunderous action. |
|
Ajith - Pawan Kalyan |
|
Enigmas ' The careers of Power Star Pawan Kalyan and Ultimate Star Ajith have more or less experienced similar explosive B.O openings and similar doses of success and failures but regardless of their movie's outcomes they have earned astounding admiration from a fan base that's ever growing. This probably has to do with their humble yet charismatic off screen personas. |
|
Vijay - Jr.NTR |
|
Mass Men ' Vijay fans and Jr. NTR fans throng to watch their favorite star for one reason alone ' ENTERTAINMENT. With exceptional screen presence, punch dialogues galore and a healthy share of dance and fights these two Southern stars never disappoint in the entertainment quotient. |
Suriya - Mahesh Babu |
|
| Charmers ' Both Suriya and Mahesh Babu have a charming appearance to go with their affable demeanor that have young girls swooning for them. Their off-screen love tales with happy endings earn them extra brownie points with the ladies to be their ultimate Dream Guy. |
Vikram - Ravi Teja |
|
| 'Never Say Die' Guys ' The common thread between Vikram and Ravi Teja is that they both had humble beginnings in the industry and made the most of their early opportunities while waiting for their big break. When the break came, they made it count big time transforming into superstars and creating their own markets. |
STR - Allu Arjun |
|
Stylish Stars ' Allu Arjun and STR are without a doubt the two best dancers of the south. Their youthful exuberance in their performance and their fashion statements give them the credit for being the trend setters of this generation. |
Karthi - Ram Charan Teja |
|
| Rising Stars ' They come with a lot of reputation and expectation riding on them and both Karthi and Ram Charan Tej have managed to deliver a blockbuster very early on in their careers and are quickly emerging as a strong force to reckon with in their respective industries. |
Arya - Rana Daggubati |
|
Handsome Hunks ' Rana Daggubati and Arya are both representatives of the suave and sophisticated modern man. Their choice of off-beat roles also adds to their similarities. |
Vishal - Prabhas |
|
| Dark Horses ' Prabhas and Vishal always seem to be there and thereabouts but their performances have never been lackluster. Both are capable of achieving massive B.O results to stay in the reckoning and give their competition some chills. |
Jayam Ravi - Siddharth |
|
| Chocolate Boys ' Its sweetness overload when we see Jayam Ravi and Siddharth on the screen. Their appearance appeals to family audiences as the ideal adorable son. |
Found something interesting I wanted to share. All credits go to Behindwoods. Feel free to share your views and your favourite actors. Please no bashing.
Some of the comparisons are silly. Superstar Krishna in telugu had a much bigger image than what Jaishanker had anytime in Tamil. Krishna had a enviable following durng late 1970s and till late 1980s. He was the tip star of telugu cinema during that time
