Akramaa! Karunas >>>>> Santhanam

karunas..light smile some times. mokkai most often.
Laugh rarely ever. YNM phone booth is the only one I recall.

Villain, VR MBBS(!), Tittal Park, Attagasam(?), ABCD (bus la oru gundu payyana thitra scene indha padam dhaan nu nenaikkaren), Polladhavan, Kurudhippunal getup cutting scene,etc.. and Jaiganes sonna madhiri nadippum varum (like VV)...

Santhanam is also predominantly mokkai. But surely more laughs than Karunas. Nakkal is primary source of humour for me. Something karunas doesn't get at all and Santhanam does pretty well. Particularly the Santhanam + Manohar combination in Lollu Sabha is among the funniest in TV.

Yeah i understand thats the difference - Ungalukku GM enakku VV.
Lollu Sabha la Jeeva episodes paathirukkeengala? Ultimate.. His mimicry is terrific too, especially when he does Rajini.. Perfect

Digression about manohar. He repeats the andha yEzhu naatkal climax punchline. So he gets into quasi-Malayalam without notice. The way he says the word பட்சே is

Transliteration please

Santhanam is a standup comedian type - but as a film comedian and more importantly as an actor - KArunas is miles, light years, parsecs , Astronomical units ahead of santhaanam. I have already put my neck in the line and said he is more spontaneous and natural actor when compared to even say a Surya (sivakumar's first born son and more recently gundu muzhi jyothika's husbend)

Jaiganes,
Stand-up comedy ellam panna mudiyadhu nu nenaikkaren. He has ONLY nakkal.
Template:
Manmadhan ragging:
"Edhavadhu senju kaattu", "Biriyani" etc etc... i mean that was funny for me but gets tedious after a while..

Exactly. Reasons - absoleetly no espressions. Deadpan face. Adhula dhAn anjAsingam scores over him or anybody for that matter :P

Anyway sake hands here.

Nothing to transliterate. Not on youtube yet. vandhadhum post paNrEn. In an otherwise incredibly mokkai scene starring the incorrigibly unfunny Arthi , he creates a laugh with the same line without adding anything at all to it. Quite a natural

Goundamani can express same emotion (frustration in the hands of sendhil) in many different styles
sometimes from a subtle defeated 'veyyilla vendha ' expression with a 'shhabba' to 'onnu indhaa irukku' . Adhu range. Andha maadhiri range santhanathukku irukkaradhukkaana Ari Kuri kiri edhuvum sabhai gavanathukku innum varalainnu therivichukaren.

Two of my favorites:
"Enda sollala" in Ramayya vasthavayya
and that "Annan 200 roobai moi seivaar"
Ultimate!

Comparing him - or IMO anyone- to GM is grossly unfair.

I think we zerod it down. He has a limited range. Some are bored easily but some tend to like it.

Karuna often makes huge efforts and still doens't get a laugh. Sometimes I feel the lines are funny but he is not. Like this one from ThirudA thirudi:

"indha hamAm soap viLambarathula varra maadhiri nalla ammAkkaLE kidayAdhA dA"

And when they are no strong lines, God help him.

Coming Soon - Puyal vs GM

I think its often quite the opposite:
I mean thats how he's like VV....
