The guy with beautiful eyes didnt have it all easy. after struggling for close to 5 years, he discovered himself and his potential with diretor Bala's Nandha. since then he has picked his roles with utmost care and churned hit after hit with experimental and commercial roles in movies like Pithamagan, Kaaka kaaka, Ghajini, Vaaranam Aayiram to the latest Ayan and Aadhavan. Gautham Menon is one director who has catapulted surya to a different league and fetched him many female fans!! Who can forget the smart physique and romance filled body language of the stylish and suave Surya in Kaaka Kaaka?? Surya- Gautham- harris combo has been deadly for close to 8 years now, with every song becoming a super hit. but not to forget, it was Yuvan Shankar Raja who gave surya his initial hits in many movies like Poovellam Kettu paar ( The espanic O senorita), Mounam Pesiyadhe, Nandha and many more.

ISAI CAFE- MUTHURAMAN/KARTHIK SPECIAL

This week's Isai Cafe brings you lovly most wanted classics of Father- son acting sensations Muthuraman of the Black White era and Karthik, the handsome and charming hero of colour celloloid era. Muthuraman was known to be a very gentlemanly non-fussy good looking hero who carved his own niche in the hearts of Tamil cinema fans. muthuraman's physique and good looks and features were unparalled despite the dominance of mega stars liek Sivaji and MGR. Muthuraman's forte was substantial feel-good cinema and rib-tickling comical flicks like Bama Vijayam, Server Sundaram, kasedhan Kadavulada.Muthuraman hit an all time high on popularity with Sridhar's Kadhalikka neramillai. he was any director's pick for jolly and happy-go-lucky roles. Muthuraman also paired opposite Jayalalitha in many unforgettable movies Suriyakanthi playing the quintessential husband filled with confusions and complexes ( the sella kaasu ) dialogue is very famous!

Karthik followed his father's well carved path. He was introduced by ace director Bharathiraja with the movie 'Alaigal Oivadhillai' that has become an ode to tamil cinema given the sensitive subject of inter-religion love, karthik-radha sizzling chemistry and mesmerising music by Isaignai Ilayaraja who always seemed to have a soft corner for karthik. He has crooned many of Karhtik's trademark songs like raja Rajadhi( agni natchathiram), Veetukku veetukku( Kizhakku vaasal). Like his father, Karthik later on moved to the comedy territory with blockbuster Ullathai alli thaa directed by Sundar C. His accent, innocent- ignorant- child like roles and comedy timing has won him several fans, accolades and unforgettable movies.

ISAI CAFE- PADMINI/SIMRAN SPECIAL!!!

Hello, lovely music lovers and sweet people!! This week i am all set to provide all of you a lovely treat of a potpourri of old classic of "Naatiya Peroli" Padmini's yesteryear golden hits. Padmini debuted with 'Manamagal'. Following that she did several movies with ruling stars like Sivaji Ganesan in movies like Nenjirikkum varai and Thillana Mohanambal, the jewel on her crown of movies. Her emotional and realistic portrayal of the dancer Mohana's character which is torn between devotion and love towards her art and love for Nadhaswaram player shanmugasundaram played to perfection by Nadigar Thilagam has etched her deep in all our hearts. Trained by vazhuvoorar in Bharatanatyam, her dancing skills played perfect support to her beauty and chemistry with Sivaji. In this weeks ISAI CAFE, we have tried to cover all her gems like 'Maraindhirundhe paarkum' in Shanmugapriya aptly composed by KV Mahadevan to convey her longing for Shanmugasundaram!! , Nalandhana, Mannavan vandhanadi, Mannika vendugiren, one of the very few light duets with Sivaji.

Coming to this side of the show, none other but the vivacious and sensous actress and ace dancer Simran rules the roost on Cappuccino. We have chosen special songs like Manam Virumbude, Thottal poo malarum, Nilavai kondu vaa ( Her ticket to the throne on the hearts of all south indians), Udaya and many more.
