A Tragic Day for the World of Comedy.

Nagesh is no more.
A person of moderate looks and all of skin and bones, but the fact was most of those bones were funny. A legend initially in the line of Jerry Lewis but later went on to leave an indelible mark of his own style.
He was as quick footed as he was quick witted. He was a delight to watch when he shook a limb or more... his jives, twists, taps and simple stretches thanks to his bony structure were some display of gracefull dancing sans the pelvic thrusts that you see these days. His dancing skills would definitely outclass his imposters (including his son) of the break dance crazy generation of 80’s and 90’s.
As for his acting skills I am yet to see a better scene to match his histrionics in 'Kadhalika Neramillai' as an ambitious wannabe movie maker who narrates a horror story line to his dad Ballayya to wheedle him to finance his project.
I managed to post the link to this immortal clip in memory of this legendary comedian.
