Sometimes, a good actor slips into the shadows, because his talent is not recognised. Madhavan’s is an excellent case in point. After being on the sidelines for years, the essentially Tamil actor was last seen in the bilingual Irudhi Suttru/Saala Khadoos some 12 months ago. Here he captivated critics and the ticket-paying masses with an extraordinary performance as a fallen wrestling champ-cum-coach, who finds a new meaning to his life when he chances upon a young firebrand of a fisher-girl.
