And he also comes with his MGR the Politician get-up itself in ENGAL THANGAM ... He will give away a prize to the character that MGR plays in that movie .. Cant remember the character's name exactly ... But it was kinda cool to see MGR the politician and MGR the actor !!Quote:

YESSS !!! And that song is one of my favorite duet songs of MGR !!Quote:

Makkal thilagam,kalaignar and JJ.. 3 cms in one movie....
kalainjar didn't invlove directly in this movie ,but it was produced by kalainjar's family banner Megala pictures ..The movie story dialogues wriiten by Late Central Minister Murasoli maran (father of sun tv kalanithi maran).Quote:

Engal Thangam released after Anna's demise ,so you can see in a song there is a line 'santhana pettiyil Urangukirar,Anna sarithirira pugazhudan viLangukirar" and theyn shown Anna's body in Santhana petti
Cool Joe, Thanks for the clarification !!! :D :DQuote:

I'm trying to understand at what point in his movies, did MGR go against KK in all those punches !!!
:thumbsup:
Bakthavadchalam was CM until DMK won for the first time and Anna became the CM in 1969 and he died in two years ,so kalainjar took over CM seat.Quote:

So MGR's punch dialogues against kalainjar only stats from USV ..Before that all punch dialogues (including Naan aanaiyittal) directed to Congress.
Makes TOTAL SENSE !!!
I think a small correction in your post would be ... Anna became CM in 1967 and died in 1969 ...
Thanks for all the info !!
:clap:
You are right Bay..Anna was CM from 67-69 .kalainjar took over in 1969..Problem between MGR and Kalainjar started in 1971.
The trouble seem to have started when MGR went to Kashmir for shooting Idhaya veenai .
Asked for Trade / commerce minister but MUkaa refused citing reasons that one cannot act and become a minister as per ther Constitution but MGR was unyielding.
So, to satisfy him, Mukaa influenced Indira Gandhi and got national award for Rickshawkaran ( at the same time NT's Savale samalee was released )
Mukaa also wanted MGR to give up cinema in lieu of ministerial berth which MGR said no.
Mukaa also parallely built up his son Mukaa Muthu on the same lines of MGR .
Oh, this is a very big story to narrate !
Engal Thangam , I believe MGR acted free of cost as the proceeds were supposed to be dedicated for DMK election funding.
Though the move ran for 100 days, I understand MGR didnt participate in the celebrations as by that time, the differences of opinion had build up between the 2
One piece of interesting information ( courtesy Mr. Manisegaran ) :
One song by name Naan alavodu rasipavan - was started by Valee and was searching for the next sentence . Mukaa promptly suggested the words :
EDHAYUM ALAVINDRI KODUPAVAN !!

Ok. I have already done it.
MU.Ka may not have influenced indira gandhi to give national award to MGR, but surely the award had political connotations.
Imagine MGR as best actor, that too national award - unthinkable.
A song for the week end :
NAM NADU :
Nam naadu is a typical MGR movie . He challenges the anti social elements and destroys them at the end :D Usual formula but handled nicely .
A movie wherein a govt employee , MGR takes up the challenge to cut to size all the anti social elements and corruption that prevail at large in govt depts.
MGR loses his job but takes up challenge to annihilate his rivals.
Midway, some maaru vesham for him also ! :D and a song comes in .
To me this song looks very different & unique becaz of the inconsistent rhythms & heavy trumphets at regular intervals !
Also looks absolutely western . I know MGR appears in disguise and sings along with JJ.
Seems MSV had tried new things & had experimented a lot in this song
Cheers to TMS and LRE for their customary charming rendition . LRE always a good match for JJ !
MGR prevails through the words - Paneeril kulipadhu maligai nenjam . Kaneeril midhapadhu ezaigal ullam
Nalla perai vanga vendum pillaigale has lots of message for children !
http://as01.coolgoose.com/music/song...1c02f5ba101de6
Happy week end
Namnaadu :thumbsup: :thumbsup: - NaagiReddy /Sakkarapaani
I love 'nalla perai vaanga vendum pillaigale -Music: MSV uthavi Kovarthanam
( why not periyavangale ? )
TMS for MGR sithappaa LR Anjali , Shoba for kutty padmini and baby sridevi how cute ! one of kannadaasan's fav movie
although all songs by our very own Vaali ! :thumbsup: :thumbsup:

songs available online too
"Ninaiththathai nadaththiyE mudippavan naan... naaan... naaan".
Terrific 'Preludes' by the genious MSV with trumpet, drums, guitar, flutes and also vocal chorus.
The costumes and 'maaru vesham' of Jayalalitha (with golden hair) will be wonderful. MGR's costumes, as usual Jigina coat and with a horrible white framed sun-glass.
TMS and LRE will be in peak
"பன்னீரில் குளிப்பது மாளிகை நெஞ்சம்
தன் கண்ணீரில் மிதப்பது ஏழைகள் உள்ளம்
படைத்தான் ஒரு உலகம்
பணம்தான் அதன் உருவம்
எதுவும் இங்கு நடக்கும்
இது ஏன் என்று எதிர்காலம் விடை கூறட்டும்"
வாலி.... வாலிதான்...
excuse me ! guess it would be better if you are bit more knowledgeable about costumes and appearance :DQuote:

ninaiththai nadathiye mudipavan naan'..such a scence
then again its mgr's thoughts and feelings Vaali expressed
Beautiful link TFML :D Often I have found MGR becomming another kuzandhai whenever he interacts with them . At the same time some good messages to them .
Thennatu Gandhi was an obvious ref. to AA only
But my grievance on you is that you are not giving the links on a saveable format . Pl make it as wmv format so that we all can store and preserve it forever :thumbsup:
Today's song is one of my MGR favourites !
This beautiful poetic song was also picturised well . The dance steps by MGR and SD will be nice and simple .
Every sentence ends with NILA ! and both TMS and PS will give additional stress to the last 2 words – Idhe nilaa , adhe nilaa !!
Some guitar interludes add flavour to the song . One of my all time MGR favourite songs .
Wish to present with lyrics :
andru vandhadhum idhE nilaa
indru vandhadhum adhE nilaa
endrum ulladhu orE nilaa
iruvar kannukkum orE nilaa
aah aah iruvar kannukkum orE nilaa
ambigaapadhi kanda nilaa
amaraavadhiyai thindra nilaa
kamban paadiya velli nilaa
kaviyil aadiya pillai nilaa
aah aah kaviyil aadiya pillai nilaa
kaadhal romeo kanda nilaa
kanni juliet vendra nilaa

Its another MSV-TKR classic only !
And the links below ( though it says KVM, I know its by MSV - TKR only )
http://music.coolgoose.com/music/song.php?id=197885
I always love this song from UrimaiKural
ஒரு தாய் வயிற்றில் வந்த உடன்பிறப்பில்
கொஞ்சம் பிரிவு வந்தால் பின்பு உறவு வரும்
நல்ல மனிதருக்கும் நன்றி மறந்தவர்க்கும்
முன்பு உறவிருந்தால் பின்பு பிரிவு வரும்
Here also MGR calls ANNA
நல்லவர் லட்சியம் வெல்வது நிச்சயம்
அண்ணா அன்று சொன்னார்
என்றும் அது தான் சத்தியம்
Amongst the cream of classical numbers of MGR-MSV combination, I will consider this song in top league !
A type of compo which separates MSV from other composers . Classical raga with mellisai ! I heard somewhere its Bagesri. Experts may clarify pls.
Also, this song is another example of MGR's taste for classical music !
The movie was released when the political environment was too too hot and boiling. Yes , it was while having a break during the making of this movie that MGR was sacked from DMK .
What happened next is history :D
Makkal thilagam acts as a scavenger from a very poor under developed area and brings them up by his efforts ! :D
Another character dies in the first scene itself , being pushed down by a group of villains.
Well, this movie has some o/s songs like Padumbothu naan thendral katru which I will post them later.
IMHO, this is the best song of this movie
Featuring MGR and Manjula
MGR in 2 roles but the second one appears after the death of the first .
And finally, what a voice of yours TMS sir :D We salute you and PS Madam for extrordinary singing .
Listen to the great song here :
