Anushka's height poses problem to Tamil Heroes!

2009 turned out to be a BIG year for Anushka! Her film Arundhati in which she portrayed two vital characters Arundhati and Jejamma, separated by a time period of 3 generations, became Tollywood's Top 3rd Grosser. She proved her versatility in this film. In Telugu Billa, she did the extremely glamourous role like Nayanthara did in its Tamil version. It was also a big hit. Her latest release in Tamil, Vettaikkaran opposite Vijay turned out to be a huge success! Though her character in Vettaikkaran did not challenge her acting prowess, she titillated the audience by appearing glamourously in skimpy wet clothes in song sequences.

You all know that Anushka is one of the tallest heroines in South Indian Cinema. Could you believe if I say her height factor poses problem to the heroes who are pairing her? A leading Tamil evening daily wrote in its gossip column recently that Surya is wearing special shoes with increased height (colloquially they said ‘stool like shoe’) to match the height of Anushka for the film ‘Singam’ (What a pity! Previously he was changing his getups for films. Now he is changing shoes!).

Except some heroes like Arya, Jeevan, Sibiraj, Satyaraj, etc, most of our Tamil heroes’ average height is between 5’6” and 5’8” only. They may sure be scared of pairing such tall heroines like Anushka & Namitha but their tantalizing beauty persuades a strong desire in the minds of our heroes. Latest Technology is always there to help them. Recently in ‘Paa’ Amitabh Bachchan acted as a 12-year-old boy with an extremely rare genetic defect(progeria-like syndrome) that causes accelerated aging. Hollywood’s Christien Tinsley made this possible with his prosthetic make up. Surya himself acted as a 10-year-old boy in his latest flick ‘Aadhavan’. Even Pandiarajan, who is the shortest hero, paired with several tall heroines with the aid of camera tricks. Anushka is fortunate to get a grand opening for her re-entry in Tamil. As long as producers are ready to meet her demands, she will have no objection to pair with any hero. So, Tamil heroes! Get ready! Nothing can forbid you pairing Anushka!
