Delhi Ganesh, celebrated as a Kalaimamani award winning actor, has left an indelible mark on the world of Indian cinema. Renowned for his versatility, he has portrayed diverse supporting roles across Tamil, Hindi, Malayalam, and Telugu cinema, and has also lent his voice for dubbing. With a career spanning over 400 films since 1976, Delhi Ganesh's influence extends beyond the silver screen to television serials and web series.
Before his cinematic acclaim, Delhi Ganesh was an integral member of the Delhi-based theatre troupe, Dakshina Bharata Nataka Sabha. Following his tenure in the Indian Air Force from 1964 to 1974, he embraced his passion for acting and transitioned seamlessly into the world of cinema. Bestowed with the stage name Delhi Ganesh by the eminent director K. Balachander, he made his memorable debut in the Tamil film industry with "Pattina Pravesam".
What are your most enjoyable on-screen collaborations?
I enjoy comedy roles. I don't like villain roles. In Radhika's serial, I portrayed a villainous character where the antagonist attempts to harm her. However, as Radhika's character was noble, the audience did not appreciate my portrayal, and some even voiced their disapproval. Consequently, Thuglak magazine published an article questioning, "Delhi Ganesh Ku Entha Role Thevaiya?" This experience led me to decide against accepting such roles. Subsequently, I portrayed a sophisticated villain in the movie "Aboorva Sagotharargal."
