Silambarasan acted in [[Tamil language|Tamil]] films as a child artist in projects like ''Monisha En Monalisa'', ''Shabash Babu'', ''Rajadi Rajavan'', and ''Thiruvalla'' in minor roles. His father, [[T. Rajendar]] had an idea to make Silambarasan direct a film at the age of 15 but dropped later. His debut in movies as a hero came in the form of ''Kaadhal Azhivathillai'', a [[Tamil language]] movie also featuring the debut of [[Charmy Kaur]], a popular [[Telugu language|Telugu]] actress. The film was highly hyped but the film flopped at the [[box-office]] and it was followed by [[Dhum]] and [[Kuthu]] with Rakshitha and [[Divya Spandana]] respectively. These films also did average business at the box-office.
''[[Alai (film)|Alai]]'' with [[Trisha Krishnan]] followed, it became his first film to run over 50 days at a cinema but once again he faced controversy due to some scenes between [[Trisha Krishnan]] and himself. His next film, ''[[Kovil]]'' with [[Sonia Agarwal]] was a super hit at the [[box-office]]. Silambarasan then took a year's break to concentrate on ''[[Manmadhan]]'' project, he wrote the screenplay for ''[[Manmadhan]]''. The film starred [[Jyothika]], [[Mandira Bedi]] and [[Yana Gupta]] opposite him and the film became a runaway triumph at the box-office breaking many records especially in [[Madurai]] and it ran for 275 days in [[Kollywood]]. The film earned rave reviews and changed many peoples' minds about Silambarasan's career. His next film, ''[[Thotti Jaya]]'' also was a hit, in which he had paired with [[Gopika]]. For ''Thotti Jaya'' he sported a black beard in the role of an orphaned gangster who finds love.

Music composer Yuvan has remixed the song for Silambarasan's 'Silambattam'. Moreover, the actor has crooned the song himself. This being a peppy number, it was shot featuring a large number of dancers recently.

'Silambattam' is fast nearing completion and would hit the screens very soon. Meanwhile, after completing 'Silambattam', Simbu will start shooting for 'Poda Podi', which is to be shot extensively in Canada. Sarath Kumar's daughter Varalaxmi plays his heroine.

== Personal life ==

=== Relationships ===

[[Silambarasan]] created headlines when publicity posters sprung up around Chennai of his [[Vallavan]] co-star, [[Nayantara]] and him kissing. However, despite maintaining a high-profile relationship, involving the press, the pair broke up soon after the film was released citing differences. Nonetheless, after the break-up, pictures were released anonymously of the pair kissing each other at [[Nayantara]]'s apartment. Further controversy was created when rumours leaked out that the plot of [[Silambarasan]]'s forthcoming film, [[Kettavan]], was based on the couple's true love story.

Earlier, Silambarasan was involved in a romantic affair with aishwarya Rajinikanth who is married to Dhanush now. Silambarasan and Dhanush are considered to be rivals in their industry. Silambarasan's former movies 'Manmadhan' and 'Vallavan' were based on different phases of his relationship with aishwarya. These movies seemed to be Silambarasan's explanation of why the relationship did not work out.

=== Television Controversy ===

Silambarasan donned the role of a judge during the [[Jodi Number One (Series 2)|second season]] of [[Star Vijay]]'s [[Jodi Number One]], where the participants are television artistes. On the episode aired on [[October 6]], [[2007]], Silambarasan told the participant, Prithvi Raj, that he didn't perform well in the round. Prithvi Raj, unable to accept the comments, refused to talk. However Silambarasan provoked him to talk, which made Prithvi Raj say that Silambarasan was using the situation to get some footage of himself. Silambarasan left the show in disbelief only to return teary eyed after recalled by the remaining participants.
Later Prithvi Raj was eased out of the show as the show rules state that, "Once a participant leaves the stage/set before the judges, he forfeits his chance to participate in the show".

Revision as of 12:39, 12 October 2008

Francisco Ortiz de Vergara was a Spanish conquistador and colonizer.

He succeeded Gonzalo de Mendoza as governor of Rio de la Plata. He was elected, rather than appointed by the king or his predecessor. His election was confirmed by bishop Pedro de la Torre, but he was demoted by the Royal Audience and returned to Spain in 1565 following charges by Nuño de Chaves.

During his administration, there were a number of failed attempts at new settlements - Sancti Spiritus, San Francisco, and Santa Cruz de la Sierra. This last, in the southern Amazon Basin, was eventually successful, but only after the city had been moved over 200 kilometers from site chosen by Chaves. The former location is in the vicinity of San José de Chiquitos and is now an archaeological site under the name Santa Cruz la Vieja.
