Thalapathy
Vijay
made
his
Kollywood
debut
when
he
was
just
18
with
'Naalaiya
Theerpu'
on
December
4,
1992.
It
has
been
27
glorious
years
for
Vijay
in
Tamil
cinema
since
then.
Considered
as
'Mass
Hero'
by
thousands
of
fans
across
the
country,
the
actor's
journey
has
been
a
remarkable
one
in
the
passing
of
years.
The
fans
of
the
actor
started
to
trend
the
hashtag
#27YrsOfKwEmperorVIJAY
from
yesterday.
On
this
nostalgic
day,
Let's
recap
Vijay's
Top
5
Memorable
movies!
1.
Kadhalukku
Mariyadhai
The
romantic
musical
drama
is
a
path
breaker
in
Vijay's
initial
career.
Directed
by
Fazil,
the
film
is
the
love
story
of
a
young
couple
who
decides
to
put
the
wish
of
their
parents
first,
and
act
according
to
their
interest,
ultimately
sacrificing
their
love.
The
movie
is
a
favourite
one
even
among
elders.
'Ennai
thaalata
varuvaala'
song
from
the
movie
is
Ilayaraaja's
one
of
the
best
love
melodies
ever!
2.
Thulladha
Manamum
Thullum
Vijay
proved
in
the
movie
that
he
can
excel
in
any
genre,
apart
from
action.
The
film
is
a
melancholic
romantic
drama
starring
Simran
opposite
Vijay.
The
movie
was
a
blockbuster,
opening
a
market
for
Vijay
in
Kerala.
'Innisai
Paadi
Varum'
song
from
the
movie
is
an
all-time
favourite
melody
for
many
even
now.
3.
Ghilli
Vijay
played
the
role
of
an
aspiring
Kabaddi
player
named
'Velu'.
The
film
showed
the
action
and
comic
sides
of
Vijay.
We
all
remember
his
funny
scenes
and
dialogue
modulations
with
his
mother
in
the
movie.
Ghilli
is
still
regarded
as
one
of
the
finest
action
entertainers
of
Tamil
cinema.
4.
Sachein
Though
the
film
did
not
do
well
commercially
like
Vijay's
other
action
hits,
the
movie
always
holds
a
special
place
in
the
hearts
of
Thalapathy's
fans.
We
all
love
to
see
Vijay
in
a
happy-go-lucky
mood
and
a
light
genre,
apart
from
his
regular
action
movies.
The
dialogues
and
songs
of
the
film
were
loved
and
are
still
mimicked
in
modern
TikTok
and
dubsmash
apps
by
all
generations.
5.
Pokkiri
Pokkiri
was
a
remake
of
the
Telugu
film
of
the
same
name
that
starred
Mahesh
Babu
in
the
lead.
The
Tamil
remake
brought
huge
success
to
Vijay
and
made
him
a
big
action
star.
Since
Pokkiri,
Vijay's
fanbase
has
been
increasing.
The
song
'Pokkiri
Pongal' is
still
the
favourite
one
among
the
kids
and
fans.
The
'Bigil'
actor
is
currently
shooting
his
next
with
'Kaithi'
fame
director
Lokesh
Kanagaraj.
The
film
is
expected
to
release
in
2020.
