Film Stats & Assorted queries

[Bipolar]

i've read Ananda vikatan review for "naan vazhaveippen" ... & their comment on lead pair's "youthfulness.." esp. about the heroine..
Sivaji - KR Vijaya ... & the film is produced by KR Vijaya

Haven't seen that film... But what sort of roles were they playing? I mean was it like "Thanga Pathakkam" where they were the "lead" roles, but they were not intended to be "youthful" roles?

Does anyone know - who was the oldest actress to play a "youthful" romantic lead in a Tamil film?

e.g. Has any actress played a heroine role beyond the age of 35? (I know Sridevi played the heroine in Devaraagam when she was 33)

Our heroes can play "youthful" roles even when they are over the age of 50 in real life... of course...

I'm just curious, which actress had the longest gap between her first and last "heroine" roles?


.

Sridevi must have been born 1962. She was atleast 35 when she played Devaraagam(1996).

Bhanumathi was over 35 when she played lead actor role in many of the MGR and Sivaji ganesan movies between 1960 and 63. (she was born in 1925)

So I'm curious...

I wonder how much longer e.g. Shriya Saran and Trisha Krishnan will be on the scene (they're both the same age as me)?

I wish them both very good luck, and I hope to see them around for some time yet.

It will be interesting if we can see some intellingent, sensitive, mature romance films (in Tamil) about thirty-somethings...

Longest Tamil film? (i.e. film with the longest runtime)

Most films by an actor in a leading role in one year? (I heard somewhere that Rajnikanth at one point made 19 films in a year - is that true? If true, were they all lead roles? Anyone surpassed that?)

i don't know.. but i want to share this here..
i've seen a lot of films, but i felt watching "uzhavan" film was tiresome, nothing can beat this (my experience).. recent example is "irandam ulagam"
