i think murali is a kannadiga and son of a famous producer / director in bangalore called siddalingiah (hindu name). so unless 'daniel' is a punai peru, i doubt it...
bb you have the right information. daniel is actor murali`s bro.
no no.....daniel is not actor murali's brother........
unga ammaa kalakkuraanga !
: )
I too hav heard tat he is actor Murali's cousin!!
I think he has the 'Daniel' cos he acted in this serial called 'Chitti' or one of radhika's serials as a psycho and his name was Daniel in that serial and so the punai per...I've also heard that he is Murali's brother..not sure though
yes he played a psycho who used to torture his wife in Chitti( Prabha's daughter)
He had some complex abt his skin being dark. He was really good back then too, I used to hate him.
Anywhoo, Balaji ur mom's probably right I mean what are the chances that someone not only has a hindu name like Balaji and Daniel together doesn't make too much sense unless his parents were trying to do some sort of 'puratchi'
Mike Murali and Daniel Balaji..that's an interesting combination of names :)

Hold on, one second. You are not talking about "Idhayam," "Kaalamellaam Kaadhal Vaazhga" Murali (Kannadiga), are we?..
Or are we talking about the other Murali (Keralite), who acted as Jo's father in "Dumm 3;" as the inspector in "Raam," and as Raayar in "Majaa?"
He couldn't be the second Murali's brother.. that Murali is way too old.. and of course, complexion comparison has never worked to prove anything!..
But, you know, what puzzles me? If he is indeed "Idhayam" Murali's brother, wouldn't this have been great big news even after Kaakha Kaakha (where Daniel Balaji played Devadarshini's husband and fellow cop with Surya)?
Name analysis will not yield any results either. After all, wherever did the name "Raghavendra Lawrence" come from? :-)
or Malcolm Adhiseshiah for that matter?!!
SK
I too heard that he is the cousin brother of Murali
a friend of mine remarked that the guy is indeed murali's brother...i dont know...:(
he is mike murali's brother
so the tally is
Yes - 7 (anon, kuttichuvaru, anu, sivajini, kk, ram, anon)
No - 2 (anon, leo)
but no real proof yet. wish someone could give a link to an interview by either of them that talks about this...
yes Balaji. Ur mom is right.
hmmm... makes me wonder. Brothers as in same father, same mother? If that was the case, we would have heard about it earlier, as sandya mentions. Maybe kudumbamthula edho kulappam ...
I recall reading an article/interview(?) many years back stating the same. Daniel Balaji is probably an adopted name. What are names in films? No one uses there real name.
Vikram - Kenny
Vijaykanth - Something
Satyaraj - Something
Rajnikanth - Sivaji
Karthik - Murali
Bhagyaraj - Something
Partheepan - Murthy
Vijay - Joseph(Name that was used commonly before acting)
Arya - Jamshedsomething
Shaam - Shamsudeen something
The current crop of ladies usually use their own name, but the 80s, 90s entries all had changed names for films.
-kajan
Vikram's real name is in fact Kennedy.
Daniel Balaji is Murali's brother(though not sure abt the cousin part of it)...Anu is right...his name was Daniel in Chithi...I remember reading an article in AnandaVikatan around the same time Chithi was airing in which Balaji said that his brother actor Murali was proud of his performance in Chithi
Anonymous u missed another one in u r list...
Surya - Saravanan.
not kennedy. kenny
vikram's original name is john kennedy, kenny is a nickname.
guess vikram is john kennedy after all..http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vikram_%28actor%29
sk
ooops me v late in asserting this
...he is bro but step !!!
u 4got 2 add..revathi was asha:)
and s.j.suryah is either justin or vincent
now i see where you got the inspiration to see so many movies :-)
rambha is vijayalakshmi :)
romba mukhyam!!! couldn't help it..
Balaji, this is off the topic, what do you think of doing an article on top 10 best interval scenes in tamil movies? Breaks that really set us up for the second half and leave us wanting more. Baasha comes to mind what do you say?
Nope balaji is a personal friend of mine! He is not related to Murali or anyone else!!
leonardvijay, balaji is "not related to murali OR ANYONE ELSE"
apo avar enna, avatharam-aa?? (courtesy: crazy mohan!)
he IS step bro but doesnt like to advertise that leo..thats what authentic reliable source says..i specifically asked for bb's sake!
ram, LOL
You can take that in the traditional sense of LOL, or as LOLlu
Went through the whole chat transcript at Galatta.com just now with Daniel Balaji. No luck there either. None of the bozos (for lack of a better word!) asked anything about his link to actor Murali. So, there goes that!...
He is a frend of mine & he is my brothers ex-roomate. But its been yrs since I even spoke to Balaji.
I remember my brother saying that he is related to Murali, but not sure how! I guess cousin brother.
hey lol!!!
cause balaji is murali's cousin
i know this because he my uncle..........
i mean he's a my uncle
NOT
he my uncle

He is so cute.
I knw Balaji, I asked him directly -is he brother of Actor Murali, but he said it was a hoax, so people dnt spread it.
His name was balaji, and Daniel is gifted from the serial 'chitti'
