It's amazing how sometimes when you think carefully, how some films have immediate narrative connection to some NT films.
Take Rajini's Muthu, for example. Sure, it is a Malayalam remake, but the film that came to my mind when I think about it is one with similar title, Muradan Muthu. Strange, considering both are remakes.
Just for fun.
Rajini's close relationship and loyalty to Sarath Babu, then he was forced to leave.
NT's close relationwhip and loyalty with Banthulu then he was forced (though it was his decision) to leave.
Ride on horse carriage with philosophic song.
Muthu: Oruvan Oruvan Muthalali.
M.Muthu: Ponnaasai Kondoorku Ullam Illai.
Rajini has love affair with someone of his own status, Meena.
NT has love affair with someone of his own status, Devika.
The end.
Rajini becomes part of the Jameen.
NT becomes part of Jameen (Asokan's family)
Of course, I did some selective thinking there, but you get the point. :wink:
Oh, did I mention that both lead characters name are the same :P
