I have come to believe that there is a unique brand of romance to every horoscope sign.. protrayal of love and life.. and i think this is why i like mani rathnam's movies and the most famous actors who did his movies justice - arvind swamy and madhavan.. all of them are gemini!
my own moon sign is gemini and that's probably why i am such a huge huge fan of mani rathnam's movies.. to me they define romance.. and i put him on such a pedestal! ok - so let's explore this brand of romance and the key aspects of this:
1) Snap judgment - they fall in love at the drop of a hat. Alaipayuthey, raavanan, roja etc.
2) They take action - they immediately share their feelings.. they have no patience...
3) They have no fear- Bombay - he tells his dad i can't wait for you to die.. i have to marry her.. in Roja - he tells the village he wants to marry the second one..
4) They hold the love of their life on a pedestal - in all these movies the heros have enormous respect for their wives.. their loves.. its the cutest..
5) They like to surprise - romance is about surprise.. these guys love them.. they do simple things and keep the flames burning..
basically.. these guys invented romance..
Cancer on the other hand is also romantic.. my next three most favorite directors (bharathiraja, Shridhar and balachander) are all cancerians (my sun sign).. their brand is just as strong.. although a lit bit more subtle.. less chivalrous.. less fearless..
but it is interesting.. i wonder if i like these guys because they think like me? or does the whole world enjoy this brand of romance??
