Gemini Ganesan Birth Anniversary: Artists are associated with many labels in the film industry. In some, this is done to troll the person, while on the other hand, in some circumstances, it is done to show respect towards someone. For example, we can say that Rajesh Khanna is known as the first superstar of the industry. Similarly, Dharmendra has the title of Heiman. Bollywood superstar Shahrukh Khan is also known by many titles. His fans affectionately call him King of Romance. Shahrukh Khan has had this tag for a long time. But do you know that before Shahrukh Khan, there was an actor long ago who was given this tag? We are talking about the legendary actor of Tamil films, Gemini Ganesh.
Gemini Ganesh was born on November 17, 1920 in Tamil Nadu. He was known for making romantic films. That’s why he earned the title of King of Romance. His name counted alongside great artists like C Ramachandran and Shivaji Ganesh. He was one of the most educated actors of his time. It is said that when he entered cinema, he had already completed his graduation. And there were very few people in the industry at that time who had graduated. He made his debut in the film Miss Malini in 1947. But after playing the villain role in the film Thai Ullam, he started to be mentioned more. He acted in more than 200 films in a career that spanned five decades.
