Jothika was a fantastic actress who's acted with all the heroes, something that Simran has not managed despite being a very powerful person in Kollywood. Simran even acted #2 to her in That's a feather on her cap at the end of her career(hopefully).
At first I liked Jothika a lot. Somehow she was not so warm off screen though she was very efficient on it. She has everything that Simran has and more. A great husband, child and even fantastic filmy in-laws.
Simran is of course, the total package. One hardly needs to elaborate.
I'd like to analogize the comparison with some of A.R. Rehman's eloquent remarks when he was a judge in Super Dancer. That every song and artiste has his or her own beauty and strenghts and that can never be taken away.

Jag, that was very well-written and analysed. I liked your conclusion by making the analogy to ARR's remarks. It is so true. Thanks for that intelligent post. 👏

for the 2nd time jagdu, i truly agree with you.👏👏 i personally feel simran & jothika both had the ability to give sponatenous expressions for the scene required. both sims & jo ruled kollywood & while they were here, they gave us some truly beautiful memorable performances. i think that is why people still can't stop talking about these 2 wonderful ladies.😛 both sims & jo are more or less equal to me. i like them both. the 2 queen bees of kollywood.😃

Yes, Jiggs, I too like both of them. Jyo had a slight edge for me simply because she is very bubbly and makes me smile. Simran is the better actress but Jyo is the more charismatic one. Each have got their advantages.

Yes. I liked them both. Simran had given some amazing performances as well as Jyo - I mean, using an extreme example, I liked both MGR and Sivaji, for different reasons. 😳

Well, on the basis of acting, I wud always rate Simran above Jyothika 😊 Though after SOK,VV, Mozhi and PKMC, I 've had to reconsider ym decision, but even then there have been several instances frm Jo's movies where I've felt-'Sims cud have done the scene better'. Jo has raised her eyebrows too much during emotional scenes in soem movies. But I do agree with Karthika, Jo's definitely more charismatic! Maybe it sher bubbly look, and the cheeks.Remember Megham Karukkuthu? She was so lively and 'bouncy' and 'jumpy' in the scene 😛 😆

Oh, there is no doubt that Simran is a better actress. But it is a joy to see how Jyothika metamorphed from a fledgling, all-thumbs actress to one with finesse and grace.

remove the banner please.

the banner above is not correct one,
nayanthara was not included inspite of being the number 1 actress in tamil, whereas actresses who quit acting are there.

so all ask mods to remove the banner.

The banner matter is a already a closed topic and like the GM already have wrote, it will be there and thats the finale decision!

If you simply doesnt have the intent to contribute positive comments, then ignore instead of creating a scene!

No more discussion regarding the banner, otherwise action will be taken toward those ignore the last warning!

JP,
The response is appreciated.
One felt that in 12B Jyothika got a more powerful role than Simran. Somehow the director would never allow them to meet, tho' they cross each other.
Obviously Jothika's best remembered performance is the dance in Chandramukhi. Suntv keeps repeating her dances with Simbu.
Was it Koffee with Anu on which Simran said she appreciated Jothika's perfomance in Jillenu oru Kaadhal? That was so realistic.
Don't you think that was acting Karthikka?
I do not know how ditty says Jothika is more charismatic. Simran called press conferences at the drop of a hat. Remember her spat with Raju Sundaram, and how open she was with it? Even now she appears with her husband very often on interviews. And TV shows. She owns the superstar show. TV has a much larger regular audience than movie theaters.
