At this moment, the hidden agenda of Nadigar thilagam comes out…..expressing momentary anger , shaking Kamals’ shirt, he says…. Tholukku mela valarndhuteenga….
Shivaji then comforts Kamal by saying…… Ayya , ungala nirandharamaa irukka chollavilla….. aanaa edhaavadhu sei indha oorukku…… indraikku vidhaikira vidhai ….naalaikku maramaa kaichu valarum…. Appo naan irukka maaten…. Aannaaa vidha vidhaichadhu yaaruuu ?? Devan dhaan……
For which Kamal assures him ….. Ayya , naan indha oorukku nichayam nalladhu pannuven ….
With tears pouring in his eyes, Shivaji says ….. Ungala vitaa enakku yaaru irukkaaga ?
Kamal , while leaving , slips a bit and an immediate reaction from other side….. paarthu paarthu….. while Kamal gets up and fades away, a worried face of Shivaji is shown…. A spontaneous reaction from a Father , worried about his dear son….

That post sure deserves :clap: :clap: That's indeed my favourite scene of the movie. One of the most memorable dialogues of the movie: 'aana vedhai naan pottadhu..' Well, what else can u expect? Story, Screenplay, Dialogues, Production - Kamal Hassan.

As a man who created tamil film history, Sivaji must get the "mani mandapam". Otherwise, in the future, there won't be any hope for any dedicated artist in history.

Sanjeevi:

How about the following Tamil people in achievers' list:

1. Kamaraj - King maker
2. Sir C V Raman - only Indian citizen so far got nobel prize (yr. 1930) in physics
3. Prof Chandrasekhar - As American citizen got nobel prize (yr. 1983) in physics. C V Raman is his paternal uncle
4. Dr. M S Swaminathan - father of green revolution in India

Many more....

small correction here:


rabindranath tagore for his geetanjali which i think he rejected.

kannann shivaji finishes "idhellam enna perumaika....kadama...ovvurathanoda kadamai" :clap:

Yes Nilavu, thanks for reminding. Now I am sitting here trying to recall the entire conversation. :)

wonderful chemistrry between father and son!

noone can justify the role of shivaji's son other than kamal
and noone can justrify the role of kamal's father like shivaji!...what a pair!

This news is i heard from someone from TN long ago

* Kamal sir first titled the movie as Nammavar, but it was changed as Devar Maghan under Shivaji sir's influence...Kamal sir apolgized many times for naming movie as Devar Maghan...

is that true?
