Vivek

Vivek (birth name Vivekanathan) is a Tamil film comedian from India. He holds B. Com (1978-81) degree from The American College, Madurai. In his career, Vivek has won 5 Filmfare Best Comedian Awards for his roles in Khushi, Minnale, Run, Perazhagan, and Sivaji.

In comparison to other comedians in Tamil cinema, Vivek is more of a satirist than a slapstick comedian, who are usually popular in the Tamil film industry. Most of his humour makes people think about the problem and its solution. His roles usually draw humour from scenes of daily life in Tamil Nadu (especially Chennai) and the surrounding regions. Some of his most popular jokes involve serious subjects such as bribery, over-population, and political corruption. Nevertheless, he has appeared in lighter parodies too.
