Nayanthara’s latest Tamil film, “Aramm” has received immense critical acclaim and is ruling Tamil Nadu box office. The film is going to be dubbed in Telugu as ‘Karthavyam’. Now, here is an interesting observation.
Yesteryear actress Vijayashanti was the first heroine to earn the ‘Lady Superstar of South’ title. And, the most defining film in her career was ‘Karthavyam’, in which she played an IPS officer. Released in 1990, the film earned Vijayashanti a National Film Award for Best Actress, and became a blockbuster at box office. She went on to do many more heroine-oriented films from then on, and took remuneration on par with her male counterparts.
After all these years, Nayanthara has become the successor of Vijayashanti in achieving the ‘Lady Superstar’ title. She has already delivered many hits with heroine-oriented films, but ‘Aramm’ is an entirely different case. It is a social drama sans glossy commercial elements, but it still is ruling box office. Of course, the film is content-driven but the commercial success might not have come without Nayan’s powerful screen presence. Her striking performance as a District Collector has won immense appreciation from every corner. ‘Aramm’ has become a defining film in Nayan’s career and justified her ‘Lady Superstar’ title.
Now, as the film is being dubbed in Telugu, makers chose to name it, ‘Karthavyam’. A film with this very same title has then made Vijayashanti the ‘Lady Superstar’, and now its the turn of Nayanthara.
