Oh ok. I think VK has achieved much more, so dont worry, peacefulla retire aaga sollunga

komutti chettiyaar is unheard for me. I dont think if aNNan knew about it he would have deliberately used it. Anyway, so what does komutti mean in komutti chettiyar?

i imagine a shape like "bushvaanam" / "flower pot" cracker.. adhukku peruthan komutti'nu assume panni vechurukken

Komati - a place (or clan?) in Andhra. Komati Chettiars are merchants from the Andhra land. They slowly started settling in TN and Komati became Komutti.

Annan use panniyadhu, I go with honest. And I have read somewhere that komutti is a mukkONam shaped-thingi.

I think NPP is their first movie "together" (though only by a couple of months or so). Senthil is a dhObi and GM a drunkard. I don't remember exactly now but IIRC there are a couple of scenes together...

And, I'm 200% sure that 'eppadA kadA vettuveenga' was the most significant first milestone in GM's career (which was a few months prior to all-in-all-AR IIRC).

Anyways, no big deal - both are R Sundarrajan movies :-) Even if someone else comes and claims GM's big-first-comedy achievement was 'indha chennai mAnagaraththile siRappAna bilding' (PM), even that was a R S movie :-)

paththa vachchuttiyE parattai (16V ) & KPR were not really "comedian" roles, they were more of villain / villain's sidekick roles with not much of humor element...

So, the credit for introducing GM as the "main comedian" in a movie should go to R S.

Thanks for correcting App. Are there many scenes with the combo there / in VK its almost thru out? Anyway, RS certainly has played a very significant role in getting GM to the lime light. (just curious - was Rajaadhi raajaa his last major hit?)

Not at all - it was an 80's movie.

Per my chronicling efforts in the SPB-IR thread, it was 'thirumathi pazhanichchAmy' (from the 90's) that was the last biggie for RS-IR.

I don't know if he hit something big later on with Deva.
