Enakul Oruvan is Tamil remake of the most popular Kannada movie, Lucia starring Siddarth in the lead. The last time we saw him, in Kaaviya Thalaivan, he was trying to fit into the Tamil theatre milieu in the preIndependence era. Now, in Enakkul Oruvan, the remake of the Kannada mindbender Lucia, he plays two characters: Vicky and Vignesh. The former is a lowly usher in a seedy, singlescreen movie theatre. The latter is a shiny superstar. In Lucia, the plainlooking Sathish Ninasam played the lead, and it was easier to accept him as the usher than the star. It’s the opposite with Siddharth, who has posh moviestar entitlement tattooed on his forehead. In order to play Vicky, therefore, he’s opted for makeup that darkens his skin – he looks as if he fell asleep in a tanning bed with the dial turned to the GunaKamal setting.
