Doubling up – From Rajini to Vishal to Namitha


After Dasavatharam, multiple roles seem to be hitting an all time high in Kollywood. Well, no one is trying 10 roles as yet, but one wonders whether there has been any time in Kollywood when so many movies with multiple roles have been in the making simultaneously.
First on the list is Silambattam,
which will have Silambarasan in a dual role, confirmed for Deepavali. The other dual role awaiting release is Gautham’s Vaaranam Aayiram where Surya is slated to play dad and son. That is all for movies that have been almost completed, now for the ones that are being made.
The biggest of them all is Superstar’s Endhiran where Rajnikanth will be seen in a dual role after quite a long time, at least a decade. Then it is Vishal who will be doing the first dual role of his career under director Prithvi. Vijayakanth returns to dual roles after Perarasu with director Vikraman’s Mariyadhai; there is Sarath Kumar’s 1977 and Prasanth’s Ponnar Shankar too. Even the heroines are not an exception to the multiple role bug with Namitha doing one in Jaganmohini.
