Maha Nadigan (English: Great Actor) is a 2004 Tamil film directed by Sakthi Chidambaram. It is a satire of Tamil cinema and politics, with Sathyaraj playing a common man who goes to become a cinema superstar and then the chief minister of Tamil Nadu.
Soundtrack was composed by Deva and lyrics were written by Piraisoodan, Kalaikumar, Pa. Vijay and Nagore Saleem.
The Hindu wrote "After "Ennamma Kannu" Shakti Chidambaram made the viewer take notice of his wit and comic sense again in "Charlie Chaplin." [..] In "Maha Nadigan" the humour is back, though he could have concentrated a little more on the storyline too".Indiaglitz wrote "Sakthi Chidambaram deserves kudos for a bold and honest film. But usually bold films are laced with anger, but Mahanadigan is full of poignant humor."
