Challenging
Star
Darshan
turned
40
recently
and
the
whole
of
Sandalwood
wished
him
on
his
special
day.
He
has
had
an
amazing
journey
in
Sandalwood,
starting
with
his
lead
role
in
Majestic
in
2001,
to
his
upcoming
movie
Chakravathy.
Here
we
are
going
to
look
at
three
films
of
Darshan,
which
no
other
hero
could
have
pulled
it
off
the
way
Darshan
did.
Nanna
Preethiya
Ramu
Performance
of
Darshan
in
this
film
as
a
blind
singer
surely
brought
him
more
number
of
fans,
even
though
it
did
not
fare
commercially.
At
that
point
of
time,
no
heroes
were
ready
to
do
this
role.
Darshan
being
a
relatively
newcomer,
succeeded
in
mesmerizing
the
audiences
with
his
fantastic
performance.
Ask
any
Darshan
fan,
this
film
will
top
their
list
of
their
favourite
Darshan
films.
Navagraha
This
film
released
in
the
year
2008,
when
Darshan's
biggest
hits
of
those
times,
Gaja
released.
Darshan
played
the
negative
role
of
Jaggu
in
the
film
despite
delivering
biggest
hit
as
hero
at
the
start
of
the
year.
No
other
hero
would
probably
attempt
playing
a
negative
role
when
they
are
at
the
peak
of
their
career.
Yet
again,
we
cannot
imagine
any
other
who
would
have
pulled
off
this
negative
role
effortlessly.
Kranthiveera
Sangolli
Rayanna
The
film
which
was
based
on
Sangolli
Rayanna,
was
made
under
a
huge
budget.
Darshan's
performance
as
Rayanna
was
widely
appreciated.
Darshan
surprised
his
detractors
by
being
part
of
this
periodical
film.
Even
though
film
had
a
few
shortcomings,
Darshan's
impeccable
performance
covered
all
those.
The
film
went
on
to
become
one
of
the
biggest
hits
of
those
times.
Yet
again,
only
Darshan
could
have
understood
the
vision
of
makers
and
agreed
to
be
part
of
the
film.
It's
been
quite
a
sometime
since
Darshan
did
something
different.
We
hope
Darshan
surprises
us
with
a
challenging
role
or
subject
like
the
films
above.
