If there is one comedian who is met with whistles and shouts during his intro scene in the theatres, it is Padma Sri Brahmanandam and Brahmanandam alone. In the recently releaed movies Adhurs and Namo Venkatesa, he plays lengthy roles and when he was introduced, the audience greeted him with loud cheers.
The star comedian is one of the most important assets for both these movies. There is no other comedian in the country who is a significant crowd-puller, be it in superstar or small ticket films. The Andhra audience have patronised this comedian for more than two decades now and in his late 40s, Brahmi's star comedian status is only increasing year after year.
Films like Manmathudu and Venky helped him re-invent himself a few years back. Even after repeating the same expressions, he hasn't bored us after many years.
No wonder that the highest paid South Indian comedian is a mini-hero in himself. Despite Adhurs and Namo.. having big stars like NTR and Venky as heroes, Brahmi has been able to hog the limelight. And, no, he never bores. The gifted comedian is a rich asset to these two films. Watch out for him, if not for anything else.
