Vishal

Vishal Introduction

A young Tamil film star, Vishal has mostly focused on action films - the genre of sophomoric Tamil movies where the hero comes off victorious after simultaneously fighting a dozen or more well armed thugs. Although not in the same league as his older peers like Vijay and Surya, Vishal has the potential to give them stiff competition. As with most Indian movie stars, Vishal is a mediocre actor. No matter. Indian audiences do not generally hanker for a Marlon Brando, Al Pacino or a Meryl Streep. All that Indian movie fans crave on the big screen is some action, a bunch of decent songs and a few pretty babes wearing skimpy dresses. Vishal's first film Chellamae (with Reema Sen as co-star) proved to be a hit at the box office and there has been no looking back since for this youngster. His successive films Sandakozhi and Thimiru were also popular with audiences. But Vishal's latest movie Satyam sets a new nadir in Tamil movies a.k.a. Kollywood with pathetic acting, silly stunt scenes, mediocre screenplay and lousy music coming together to produce a horrow-show. In line with the current trend in the Indian film industry where heroes and heroines are usually children or siblings of older actors or directors, Vishal also possesses the advantage of close links with the movie business. His father is the Tamil movie producer GK Reddy while older brother Vikram Krishna Reddy was the producer of two Vishal starrers - Sandakozhi and Thimiru. His sister-in-law Shriya Reddy was his co-star in Thimiru. Vishal's first film Chellamae (with Reema Sen as co-star) proved to be a hit at the box office and there has been no looking back since for this youngster. His successive films Sandakozhi and Thimiru were also popular with audiences. Born on August 29, 1977, Vishal is not a Tamilian but a Telugu. Several of his movies including Thamiraparani, Thimiru, Sandakozhi and Chellamae have been dubbed in the Telugu language. Vishal will next be seen in a cop movie called Sathyam, where his co-star is Nayanthara. Two Tamil cop movies Kaakha Kaakha (Surya) and Pokiri (Vijay) have become big hits in recent years.
