Plot
Gopal (Sivaji Ganesan) is a rich businessman who is returning back from vacation in Singapore to his hometown in a cruise ship. He meets Latha (Saroja Devi), another traveller who has accompanied by her father (V. K. Ramasamy)
. Gopal again meets Latha and her father who have come on a tour to Ooty, and he takes them to his home. Gopal and Latha develop a liking for each other and he proposes to her to which she happily accepts. One fine day, Latha finds a nervousness in Gopal while he hears any train sound. Gopal explains the reason behind is his first wife.
Gopal who had lost his mother had been wandering aimlessly at Singapore. In a night club, he met a singer named Chitra (Sowcar Janaki) He got attracted to her and they both decided to marry, in the presence of Chitra's brother Raju (S. V. Ramdoss) On the first night of the marriage, Gopal found that his wife was not cultured and she visits night clubs, parties and consumes drinks. Gopal was depressed by her attitude, but tolerated for respect of his family. Eventually, his father (Dada Mirasi) died of a heart attack after seeing Chitra's drunken attitude. Gopal tried to control Chitra, but she always felt irritated by his acts. At one point, she tried to walk out of his life to which Gopal pleaded her to change her mind for the sake of his family honor. But Chitra did not obey and went away. The next day he heard Chitra died in railway track and this disturbs him a lot. Latha consoles him and tells him to forget the past.
A few days later, Gopal and Latha decide to get married. Latha's father accepts for the marriage happily and engagement is arranged. On the day of engagement, while Gopal and Latha are very happy, the ceremony is suddenly stopped by a woman claiming that she is Chitra, the wife of Gopal, along with her uncle Rangan (M. R. Radha) Gopal is taken aback by the incident and also the resemblance of the woman's identity to that of his wife's face. Latha leaves the hall with tears. Gopal resists that the lady is not Chitra as she has died a long time back, which no-one except his policeman friend Kumar (O. A. K. Thevar) believes. He also shows the death certificate, but Chitra explains that she is alive and want to live with him as a good wife. Gopal promises Latha that she is not Chitra and will marry her soon after proving this. Both Latha and Chitra have an internal cold war for right of Gopal's life and love. Gopal is tortured when no-one believes whatever he says about her and additionally by Chitra when she sings the same song which she sang during their first meet. Gopal keeps trying to find evidence on Chitra's death, but all his efforts are ruined by Rangan.
Later, Raju (who knew about Chitra's death) arrives at Gopal's home and believes Gopal's story about the Chitra look-alike who was torturing him. However upon seeing her, believes Chitra is alive
Gopal is cornered but what happens next, is Chitra dead, if so who is killer forms the stunning climax
PERFORMANCE:
NT character goes through transformation first as a cool businessman, as a lover, desperate husband, unexpected killer . No one would have imagined this sort of character from NT also no actor would sneeze in close up especially his confession in end -------------- sorry Iam searching for words to adore him
Sowcar: She spells style even in real life but she played only sober roles on screen but in dual roles she delivered a superb performance
MR radha for a change a different character positive role
Saroja Devi loves NT with a purpose but eventually falls for him
But in spite of presence of Nagesh & manorama the comedy is a speed breaker

Extra shots:
Pudhiya Paravai is a remake of Bengali film Sheshankaa, which starred Uttam Kumar, Sharmila Tagore however it had only one scene ie hero confessing his crime before the court of Law , here the movie was a superb thriller
Puthiya Paravai' was produced under Shivaji Films (P) Ltd, with the emblem of Chatrapathy Sivaji of Maharashtra, sitting on a horse with a sword
The costumes were tailored and brought from Singapore and England.
Before the recording of the track Engae Nimmadhi, they had "offered about 100 tunes and it is stated in Kanndasan biography that it was tougestest song and took more time to write lyrics
It was rumoured that his movie would be a remade with Ajith playing NT role & Prabhu playing MR Radha role but it was dismissed by Ramkumar and they eventually made Asal but
Elements of the song Paartha Gnaabagam were later used in the song Yae Dushyanta, composed by Bharadwaj for the 2010 film Asal.
Pudhiya Paravai was re-released on July 23, 2010 to commemorate Sivaji Ganesan's 9th death anniversary.
The negatives of the film were "cleaned up at a lab" prior to release, and despite being a re-release, the film earned public acclaim and took a very big opening, running to "full houses" for three days
The production house Dhivya Films had expressed interest in re-releasing the film again, as they felt it was "ideal for the current audience
My mother who was studying in college and to raise funds for building they brought a print ( many years after release) and the screening was houseful and they ended up with a sizeable amount as donation
Aroor Dass Initially refused to write for Pudhiya Paravai but Production executive Durai said
Sivaji sir said these word thru Durai “சார் என்கிட்டே வர்றார இல்லை நான் சார் கிட்ட வரட்டுமா ?
” So Arror Dass went to Annai Illam to meet Sivaji
On seeing Arror das Sivaji
வாதியர கண்ட மாணவர் போல எழுந்து நின்று வாங்க சார் வணக்கம் ஒக்காருங்க கமலா சாருக்கு வணக்கம் சொல்லிக்க
Nt : புதிய பறவைக்கு எழுத முடியாதுன்னு சொல்லிடிங்கலமே
Arror: நேரமில்லை நு தான் சொன்னேன்
NT: இது சிவாஜி பிளம்ஸ் prestige படம்டா First கலர் பிலிம் . நீ ரொம்ப பிஸியா இருக்கேனே தெரிஞ்சுதான் இவ்ளோ நாள் சண்முகம் உன்னை விட்டு வெச்சான் இல்லேன்னா உனக்கு அட்வான்ஸ் குடுத்து கமிட் பண்ணி இருப்பான்
இதோ பார் இந்த படத்தை பொறுத்த வரைக்கும் எனக்கும் உனக்கும் தான் பேச்சு நீ பிஸி தான் அதுக்கு தகுந்தபடி காசை வாங்கி போ. கமலா 5000 /- ரஸ் கொண்டா
Arror: அண்ணே காசை எதிர்பார்த்து நான் வரலே
NT: என் படத்துக்கு எழுத மறுப்பே நானும் எதிர்பாகல
இதோ பார் இது அட்வான்ஸ் தான் . உன்னக்கு எவ்வளவு பணம் வேணுமோ வங்கிக்கோ . என் கிட்ட கேக்க வேண்டாம் அம்மா கிட்ட கேளு ஒரு போன் பண்ணு போதும் . அனா முழு ஸ்க்ரிப்டை சீக்கிரம் கொடுத்துடு
இந்த படத்தை ஒரே schedule ல முடிச்சு ஆகஸ்ட் ல ரிலீஸ் பண்ண சண்முகம் சொல்லி இருக்கான்
SO arror wrote the movie script in 7 nights in Royapetta Shanmuga Mudhali Street. NT also sent Driver Ramasami & Raju to help Arror Dass
Arror Dass Wrote 2 files for Pudhiya paravai one for 1st half & next one for Second half
Arror dass narrated the script
It is a usual practice of NT to sit down in floor resting in sofa stretching his legs
They had breakfast and Arror dass started to narrate the story by 9 O Clock and NT started to smoke cigarattes
Arror dass started narrating initial scenes and there was no distraction of phone calls & visitors( It was planned by NT Man of dedication)
After finishing 1st half they had a stupendous lunch and NT had a short nap and resumed the second half by 4 o Clock
The narration gained momentum as Dass started narrating interesting twists & towards the climax NT face was too serious as he got himself so involved and congratulated him and thanked him
He also requested him to be a part of the team as Dada Mirasi was an excellent director but he did not know Tamil
Climax scene was also shot and all cast & crew started to leave but Arror dass was not happy and requested Sivaji to come back and said he felt a incompleteness in end and requested to add
பெண்மையே நீ வாழ்க உள்ளமே உன்னக்கு என் நன்றி so that his character would get a soft corner with audience

Dear all To all my Tamil speaking friends with non Tamil speaking kids :)
This is a short film about NRI's of Tamil origin. My friend sent me this link to share about the dangers that will happen to us in the future if we don't pull up our socks and teach our kids to speak in Tamil! A little melodramatic at times, a little unrealistic and one sided but entertaining and worth a watch at any case.
This link is only accessible for a short time so please spare a few minutes and watch it quickly. It is time our kids and younger generation should watch NT movies and see how wonderful the language is and how to speak tamil so eloquently
Thanks,

PS
Those of you who are taking proactive steps to avoid a situation like this watch it anyway. You have nothing to fear and can gloat over the rest of us :)

It is extremely difficult to find out who sang this song -- NT or Jesudas .
An ever lasting song for the final days of our schools colleges etc no song can replace this for ever kudos to the great Kannadaasan and NT /Savithri
