Ya it apparently is😆 I remember when that Prithvi-Nivin movie released, so many went on and on about how Prithvi speaks better English😆Though i think Dulquer is better😳😆

What about the MGR-Jaya-Karunanidhi trio? You are speaking of the assembly controversy - midnight arrest thing or is there something else?

Telugu and Chiranjeevi, but he quit movies almost a decade ago. He has been constant failure ever since politically and is finally making a comeback next year. One has to see if he can recreate the same hysteria or not.

If we are talking simply talking about movies as business and collections they generate, the movies from his family (there are three bonafide stars) generate 100 Cr "Share" (present market collections) every season at the minimum (even including failures) which is phenomenal and unparalleled across all movie industries in India.
