Sikandar Bollywood Film Indian Cinema Hindi Film DVD

Review Sikandar is a must watch for Parzan s sensitive performance and Piyush Jha s able direction. Sure it tackles a dark theme but it doesn t end on a darker note. --realbollywood.com About the Actor Unlike other prominent actors in India, Madhavan began to appear in films after marriage, at the age of twenty-nine, and his short career has seen performances in diverse roles.

Madhavan's first major film appearance was in 2000s romantic film, Alaipayuthey, in which he played a husband going through the trauma of marriage. In the 2002 blockbuster Kannathil Muthamittal, he portrayed a father of an orphaned child alongside Simran. He then played the role of an action hero, for the first time in the successful project, Run (2003) and, the year after, won critical acclaim as a henchman in Mani Ratnam's film, Aayutha Ezhuthu. In 2007, Madhavan set up his own production company, Leukos Films, which will distribute several of his forthcoming films.
