Recently i met him in the hospital, He said "i want to die. I immediately said where i go for another Gemini. He smiled. That was the last smile from him. i dont know what made me to be close with him as fan. That is Gemini. My deep condolences to sister Dr.Kamala and her family members.
Difficult to understand how rekha did not bother to attend her own father's funeral. After all its her father. She really could not or just didnt bother?
The loss is an irreparable one. I can never forget his roles in `Manambola Mangalyam', `Missiamma', `Kanavane Kannkanda Deivam' and `Avvaiyar'. Decency is another name for Gemini. He was a cultured, educated and a man minus ego. He was endowed with a handsome youthful personality. He never overacted. His acting had a natural grace in him which youngsters of that age emulated and the youngsters of this age should emulate. He had plenty of energy and vitality which he could somehow transmit to the audience.
Shri Gemini Ganesan was one of the most popular actors of tamil cinema in sixtees! He was considered as one of the saleable stars besides Shivaji Ganesan and MGR. He established a style for himself and was a darling of many female audience. His passing away brings back memories of the decades where quality movies were in vogue! My heartfelt condolences and deepest sympathies to all his family members. J.Narayan, Mumbai
A no-non-sense charming entertainer in an era of overacting and who was prudent to properly invest his earnings, develop his children to socially acclaimed levels, leading a long life full of dazzling light and colours and yet he found his way! His tribe is facing extinction today! An interesting feature about him is that he has never made public his spiritual life and his ways of worship nor made any bones about being a non-faith man either! Decent to the core, May his soul rest in peace!
