I like Mano too. Just that he sounded horrible in this particular film.

The fact that Mano always tries to immitate SPB (& ends up pathetically) must be the reason PS hates him this much.

That aside, Mano did have some very good numbers.

Muqala Muqabala is his 'OWN' voice the rest is all SPB wannabe :rotfl3:

BTW , I met him in restaurant in London,, not many recognised him... he seemed friendly ,... may that was the 'Jack Daniel' he was drinking :lol2:

No No, I dont hate him at all ... he makes a mockery out of him self doing that, remember arunmozhi tried this one but he stopped straight away knowing it doesn't work out..

any one remember 'Kovai' Soundararajan... he tried to imitate TMS, and he was a good imitator, he knew his limits and stuck to it.

look at unnimenon another Dr.KJY wannabe :lol2:

Thanks to Dr.IR and Dr.SPB.... During Anjali film time SPB sir had throat operationn and was unable to sing for months and months, Mano use to work in IR troop as a helping hand... and he was big fan of SPB and a imitator,so IR gave him chance, then we all know what happend :rotfl:

mano is not just another imitator...he has sung lots of great songs ..one of the prominent singers of his time singers..prolly next to spb and jesudas.

he imitates spb..right..but he is unique in his own way

Ada adhu anjali illabA. Idhayaththai thirudaadhE. Mano sang all the songs which were sung by SPB in the Telugu version. Meesicals can confirm.

From last film thread.
Veera.

The Musical. Rajini Rocks. Raja Rocks. Roja Rocks.....okay, the last one was for rhyming reasons don't take it seriously :D More on the Rajini's thread.

But seriously, the songs were awesome and I am talking also about the smaller ones:
Aatula Annakili,
Munti Munthi vinayagaree
Kannai Thirantha.

Then the other big ones.

Fun and folksy
Vadi Vettalai pakka
Adi Panthalilee.

Naughty
Madattile Kanni Madatile (that Shankar/Harris stole for Anniyan)

Romantic, with tinge of sadness:
Konji Konji Alaigalooda.

And of course, the most majestic of it all (that probably inspired the picturisation of all the dance songs in Muthu later).
Malai Kovil Vasalil.....

Then, of course, Rajini. There is still the performer in him in this film, may it be comedy scene (Govinda scene had my wife laughing till she teared) or somber ones. Too bad, this film is sandwiched between the Baashas and the Padaiyappas that it might be forgotten. I hope not.
Agree with each and every word. There are around 10 songs in the film and I love all of them (Mano's gruff voice not withstanding). And Rajini was so natural in the 2nd half. Reminds you of Guru Sishyan :D


Ivangala yellam yaarappa paada vachathu, karumum

His songs to credit are Muqala Muqabala, the rest are all Pathetic!

SPB illaina... maththavanga ellorum pathetic'ah :lol:

I like most of Mano's songs :)

o papa lali(mano) in tamil is such a great song...and I havent listened to the telugu version(spb) until recent past.

SPB - :notworthy: ..taking nothing away from mano.... SPB was just awesome...showed the difference between good singer and a great singer...he just carried the mood of the song to completely different level..

He did in few songs, Can't remember...esp the silimishams SPB does like the laughter, giggles.. these are SPB's trade mark..

But I too liked his songs, I think there were 2 songs of him in muthu

Kazhugu is a good thriller and entertainer also with some fabulous IR song. My fav is Ponnovium and Kathal ezhum is very different song those time i think.

BTW the recent controversy about Kalki Ashramam reminded me the film Kazhugu.

Either way, it was poorly executed movie.
Cinematography was highlight of the movie (which was for any Balu's movie). I remember for whatever few stunts the movie had, RK's dupe had a bigger role even for riskless scenes (not sure if RK couldn't take part for some reason).

I chose Mullum Malarum because it was great movie overall. The performance of Rajini in thalapathy is as good as his performance in Mullum Malarum. But Rajini's acting and IR's music were the only saving graces of otherwise a mediocre movie. Good to know that both performances are front-runners in the poll.

முரட்டுச் சுபாவத்திலிருந்து தன்னை விடுவித்துக்கொள்ளவும், ஊர் உலகத்தை அறிந்துகொள்ள வும் கிராமத்தில் வந்து இறங்கும் ரஜினி, தான் 'குருகுலவாசம்' செய் யப்போகும் பட்டாளத்துக்கார ரிடம்தான் (செந்தாமரை) பேசிக் கொண்டிருக்கிறோம் என்பது தெரியாமல் அவரிடம் நக்கலா கக் கேள்விகள் கேட்குமிடத்தில் வித்தியாசப்படுகிறார்!



பட்டாளத்துக்காரர் வீட்டில் தனக்காக ஒதுக்கப்பட்டுள்ள எருமை மாட்டுத் தொழுவத்தில் ரஜினி நுழைவது இன்னொரு கலகல! செந்தாமரையின் மகள் சுலக்ஷணா கதவைத் திறந்துவிட, தொழுவத்திலிருந்து கன்றுகளும் கோழிகளும் விடுதலை பெற்று வெளியே வர, ''எல்லாம் ரொம்பப் பெரியவங்க. நமக்காக வீட்டையே காலி செய்து கொடுக்குதுங்க...'' என்று ரஜினி சொல்வதை ரசிக்காமல் இருக்க முடியவில்லை! அதே மாதிரி 'பாப்பா போட்ட தாப்பா' புத்தகத்தை இவர் மெய்ம் மறந்து படித்துக்கொண்டிருக் கையில், அறைக்குள் ஒரு பாம்பு நுழைந்து படமெடுக்க, வார்த்தை வராமல் ரஜினி அலறும்போது வாய்விட்டுச் சிரிக்காமல் இருக்க முடியவில்லை!

ரஜினிக்கு அடுத்தபடியாக அதிக வோட்டுக்களைப் பெறுகி றார் சுலக்ஷணா! கள்ளம் கபடில் லாத கிராமத்து இயல்போடு ரஜினியிடம் ஆரம்பத்தில் அவர் பழகுவதும், ஆயிரமாயிரம் ஆசை களை மனத்தில் தேக்கி வைத்துக் கொண்டு, பின்னால் அவை நிரா கரிக்கப்படும்போது பதற்றப்படா மல், ''நான் ஆசைப்பட்டது கிடைக் காட்டா அதுக்காக நான் போரா டறதில்லே; கிடைச்சது போதும்னு திருப்திப்பட்டுக்குவேன்...'' என்று சொல்லும்போதும் அமைதியான நடிப்பை அழகாகவே வெளிப்படுத்துகிறார் இவர்.



ரஜினி-சுலக்ஷணா கூட்ட ணியை எதிர்த்து தனித்துப் போட்டியிடும் மாதவிக்கு டெபாசிட் காலி! ஒருவேளை, தொகுதி - அதாவது ஏற்றிருக்கும் பாத்திரம் - சரியாக அமையவில்லையோ? கோயில் யானை தன்னை ஆசீர் வாதம் செய்யாவிட்டால் அப்பா வினுசக்கரவர்த்தியிடம் சொல்லி அதை விலைக்கு வாங்கிவிடுவா ராம். தன்னை 'இன்சல்ட்' செய்ப வர்களையெல்லாம் வீட்டுக்கு அழைத்து வந்து மொட்டையடித் துக் கொத்தடிமையாக்கிவிடு வாராம்! மாதவி ஏற்றுள்ள பாத்தி ரம் பணக்காரத்தனமாக இருக்க லாம்; ஆனால், எல்லாமே அர்த்த மற்ற அபத்தமாய் இருப்பதால் எரிச்சலே மிஞ்சுகிறது!

தன்னைத் திருத்திக்கொள்ள கிராமத்துக்கு வரும் ரஜினி, மாத வியைத் திருத்துவதிலேயே முழு நேரத்தைச் செலவிடுவதால், திரைக்கதை தடுமாறுகிறது!

காட்சியமைப்பும் சம்பந்தமில்லாமல் துண்டு துண்டாக ஒட்டப்பட்டிருப்பதால், கிளைமாக்ஸ்கூட 'புசுக்'கென்று முடிந்துவிடுகிறது! கண்ணை மூடித் திறப்பதற்குள், படத்தில் நடிக்கும் அத்தனை பேரும் ஒன்று சேர்ந்துவிடுவது 'சூ மந்திரக்காளி'

IR's domination was so complete and consistency was impeccable those days in TFM. That probably made the reviewers tired and they chose to simply not talk about music unless it was by someone else (like TR who was the lone opposer those days).

Polladhavan (1980).

Plot holes as big as Rajini's bellbottoms. Like, where was the Letchumi's nephew when the murder took place? This and many question that should not bother you.

It's a wonder how film watching experience changes with the company you keep, in this case my wife who is a big fan of Rajini's comedy.

Yes, believe it or not, the film has its rib-tickling moments, namely the flashback with Sri Priya. Rajini pretending to be injured and getting Sri Priya to nurse him back had some really hilarious moments.

Then, the serious side of course, when Letchumi confronts Rajini and tries to either run away or complain to the police. Nice cat and mouse game, with Rajini nicely showing off dark side. Speaking of police, there could have been passing of baton thing between V. Gopalakrishnan to Delhi Ganesh to play the stereotype cop, luckily DG became a better actor.

Speaking of V. Gopalakrishnan, his reasoning behind the accusation that Letchumi was the killer could have made Sherlock HOlmes turn in his grave, if at all he was real.

All in all, it's Rajini's showcase. Beginning as a real menace, a taunt, an animalistic being, he later starts to show his more human side, but not without the heavy dose of "style", those trademark speedy walk, gestures, and red-tinted sunglass even inside the house at night :lol:.

Can anyone confirm whether this is a remake? I have a feeling it is. Other than that, if this film was done ten years earlier, it would have been easily a NT film, coz Mukta Sreenivasan, the director, was making this sort of film with NT.

Conclusion: After revisits, this thirty year old film still works albeit some stupid moments.

- Vetri Nitchayam song ends
- Rajini becomes president for some association supported by an awesome bgm by thenisai thenral :clap: :clap:
- The next scene... Sarathbabu comes down thru the escalator & Rajini goes up.. in the background most remembered dialogue of the film... once it ends.. they show just the hand of Rajini .. sodukku pOttu calls sarathbabu ... no lengthy dialogue.. just 2 words.. enough to show the power of the characted.. "malai da.. annamalai" :notworthy: :notworthy:

one of my most fav Rajini film.. a complete film for him.. acting, style, comedy, romance, sentiment :clap: :clap:

20th April 2010, 06:58 AM
There's something about Sarathbabu and the whole staircase/escalator/ascending/descending thing going on in Rajini's films.

Take Muthu, he is first scene coming down the staircase. HR just mentioned the escalator thing in Annamalai, then in Velaikkaran, we again see him coming down the stairs (or is it lift?).

Then, recently when I revisited Mullum Malarum, guess what? Remember the trolley scene where Rajini first realises Sarath Babhu is his boss and he had to ask the folks to get off the trolley, and send his boss down the hill? Yeah, the trolley stops (deliberately) and Sarath has to walk down the hill. Interesting, I must say :D

and the vetri nichayam song.. :awesome:

this movie is full of roller coaster.. We went as a group to see this movie in Maris complex trichy .. later every one realised/believed we cant get tickets and moved to a diff movie. only 3 of us decided to stand in the queue for long and finally got the tickets.. the experience and the enthusiasm of the crowd cant be explained.. it needs to be experienced..


the vinu chakaravarthy episode seemed to be a mini movie within the movie... and the dialaks "medaikku meda Anna, kaamarajar MGR pathi pesuriinga.. antha 2 nimishamaavathu avanga panna ninaichu paarunga..."

"sambaathikka aayiram vazhi irukku.. athukku intha punithamaana arasiyala bayan paduthaathiiiga"

2. If I remember right, the project was sandwiched between other mega projects for Rajni; towards the release, there were delays, difficulties for Kavithalaya in completing/releasing the movie etc. The shooting might have been stop-start, and I guess everyone concerned lost interest at some point.

I have been pracharam-ising this movie for years. About 15 years ago, suddenly a theatre decided to re-release old films, among them was Adimai Penn and Tappu Thalanggal (the others did not interest us at that time).

In retrospect, I am thinking what the theatre owner was smoking when he decided to re-release a totally unmarketable film like TT. But boy, am I grateful for that dastardly deed!

I watched it with my brother. And both of us came back, speechless…remember this was the time when film industry has totally changed.

TT is a crude, in your face, love it or hate it type of film. KB must have some leftover money in his Murukku jar and decided lets just use it to film something cheap using a brilliant script and came up with TT.

The cameraman must have had bad back after shooting this because it is clearly not a normal flexi-cam, but just normal cam forced to be flexi. Jerky, uneven, and sometimes a bit out of focus, it did convery a reality that we don’t want to see. But we are forced to be there, with those low-lives and their lives.

When some actress is praised for being daring to play a prostitute, especially those looking like Miss World contenders, I scoff at them. They should first watch this film and decided that it is best that they pursue a career that requires more glamourous version of selling skin. Saritha in her debut does a great job. She is believable as a low class prostitute.

And Rajini! Crass, brutish, and unpredictable, and with a dose of humour that make you feel guilty even laughing about it, he comes off perfectly well as a low-life goon for hire. Ranks alongside Mullum Malarum as his best performance eve, his effortless performance should be a text book lesson.

And of course, Kamal makes two hilarious appearance and lightens down the situation. (I hear he insisted that he want to be in it).

Many has forgotten this film, including some of the newer Rajini film who probably never heard of it. Its time to remind them. Its also time to remind Rajini about his lost talent. [/tscii:07eae0ba7d]

Thappu Thalangal ie. "Wrong Notes", is a Tamil film, directed by K.Balachander & produced by R.Venkataraman. It was dubbed in Kannada as well, and released as Thappida Thaala.[1]

Contents [hide]
1 Plot
2 Soundtrack
3 References
4 External links

[edit] Plot
It features Rajanikanth as Devu, a local thug whose weapon of choice is a bicycle chain he sports casually around the neck. Devu charges Rs.30 to slice a finger, Rs.300 to chop a hand, Rs.3000 for the leg, and ten times as much to dispose off the whole body. On one of his nightly rounds, Devu is pursued by a cop and seeks refuge at a whorehouse run by a hooker Sarasu, played to perfection by Saritha. Despite her vehement protests, he stays put and leaves only at daybreak, but her persistent cough stays with him. At a theatre, Devu watches an advertisement for Glycodin Cough Syrup and proceeds to buy her a bottle. Devu and Sarasu bond over the cough syrup and philosophize late into the night, exchanging notes on their immoral lifestyles.

Devu's assault on a trade union leader delivering medicine to a critically ill worker leads to a mishap. Watching the wailings of the widow of the worker, Devu is traumatized and breaks down at Sarasu's place. In an inspired moment, he suggests they remap their lives and chart a moral course. Sarasu is attracted by the notion of giving up prostitution and leading a normal life as Devu's wife, though she wonders if they'll be able to pull it off. The couple go to great lengths to secure a job for Devu and lead a normal life, but there are too many skeletons in the closet. Devu is no longer feared for his might, and Sarasu's past clientele continue to haunt the joint. Sarasu gets a loan for Devu from his evil brother Soma, who continues to harass her on that pretext. In a particularly traumatic sequence of events, Sarasu is raped by Soma as a helpless Devu watches, pinned down by Soma's henchmen. The couple resolve to repay Soma's loan, and Devu undertakes a botched robbery attempt. Devu is imprisoned and in his absence, Sarasu has an abortion. The couple's plans for normality never attain fruition. The inevitable return to lives of vice is especially tragic and heartbreaking.

Balachander excels at the verite portrayal of the daily drama in the lives of pimps, hookers, and their varied clientele, as well as the politicians who hire thugs like Devu to achieve their aims through violence. Devu's inherent goodness is contrasted with his "evil twin", a stepbrother Soma who thwarts his every attempt at morality and finally succumbs at Devu's hands. Kamalhaasan has an interesting cameo as a Hindi speaking client of Sarasu. Balachander skewers middle-class morality and takes potshots at the hypocrisy of do-gooders. In the final analysis, the film is an indictment of society at large, for not allowing lesser mortals to rejoin society and return to a life of normality.

KamalHassan has done a guest appearance in this movie.

முரட்டு காளை - விகடன் விமர்சனம்

கதைக்கும், திரைக்கதைக்கும் தனியாகக் கவனம் செலுத்தவில்லை. பழைய மசாலாவையே புதிய கலவையாக்கிக் கொடுத்திருக்கிறார்கள்!

படத்தில் வரும் சண்டைக் காட்சிகள் ஒவ்வொன்றும் தூள் பறக்கிறது. குறிப்பாக, எக்ஸ்பிரஸ் வேகத்தில் ஓடும் கூட்ஸ் வண்டிச் சண்டையைக் காணத் தவறாதீர்கள்! உயிரைப் பணயம் வைத்து இந்தக் காட்சியைப் படமாக்கியி ருக்கிறார்கள். இந்தக் காட்சியோடு க்ளைமாக்ஸை இணைத்துப் படத்தை முடித்திருந்தால் நிறைவு ஏற்பட்டிருக்கும். இடையில் வரும் ரஜினியின் மாறுவேட 'நாட்டிய நாடகம்' பொறுமையை எல்லை மீறச் செய்வதால், பின்னால் வரும் ஜெய் - ரஜினி சண்டை அற்புதமாகப் படமாக்கப்பட்டிருப்பினும் சலிப்புத் தட்டுகிறது.



சின்ன வயசில் பண்ணையா ரிடம் சேர்ந்து, அவர் உப்பில் வளர்ந்து, அவரிடமே காரியஸ்த னாக உயர்ந்துள்ள சாமிப்பிள்ளையின் பாத்திரத்தை படத்தில் முழு நேர வில்லனாகச் சித்திரித்திருப்பது - கொக்கு தலையில் வெண்ணெய் இல்லை; ஒரு பசு மாட்டையே தூக்கி நிற்க வைத்திருக்கிறார்கள்!

சுமலதா, காட்டில் பாடிக் கொண்டு வர, உடனே அதை ரஜினி புரிந்துகொள்வதைப் பார்க்கும்போது, இந்தப் பாடல் ஏற்கெனவே கதையில் பாடப்பட்டிருக்கவேண்டுமே என்று தோன்றுகிறது! இல்லையென்றால், சுமலதா ரஜினியைத் தேடிக் கொண்டு வரும்போது, இந்தக் காதல் ரசம் ததும்பும் பாடல் எங்கிருந்து வந்தது?

'டூப்' விடாமல் நிஜமான போலீஸ்காரர்கள் இருவரைப் பண்ணையாரின் கையாட்க ளாகக் காட்டி, போலீஸிலும் தவறு செய்பவர்கள் இருக்கிறார் கள் என்பதைத் துணிவோடு காட்டியிருப்பது புதுமை!

மாட்டுச் சண்டையில் கூடவா ரஜினியின் கராத்தே ஸ்டைல்? தன்னைப் பார்த்துவிட்டுக் காளைமாடும் தன் முன்னங்கால்களைத் தூக்கி குங்ஃபூ போஸ் கொடுக்கும் என்று எதிர்பார்க்கிறாரா? போகிறபோக்கில், கோவிலுக்குச் சென்று சுவாமியை வணங்குவதுபோல் படமெடுத்தால்கூட, கராத்தே ஸ்டைலில் நான்கு தடவை கையை சுற்றிவிட்டுத்தான் ரஜினி, கடவுளுக்கே வணக்கம் தெரிவிப்பார் போலிருக்கிறது!

என்னதான் மசாலா படம் என்றாலும், எவ்வளவுதான் விறு விறுப்பு அதிகமாக இருந்தாலும், அடுத்து வரும் காட்சியை முன் கூட்டியே சொல்லிவிடக்கூடிய அளவுக்கு மெலிதான திரைக்கதை. படம் பார்ப்பவர்களிடம் இன்று ரசிகத்தன்மை ஏகமாக வளர்ந்தி ருக்கிறது. இருந்தாலும், 'ஜனரஞ்சகமாகத் தயாரிக்கப்பட்ட பொழுதுபோக்குப் படம்' என்ற ஒப்புதல் வாக்குமூலத்தைப் புரிந்து கொண்டு ரசிகர்கள் மன்னிக்கவும், ரசிக்கவும் தயாராக இருக்கிறார்கள்.

:exactly: There's also a scene in Chandramukhi where he has to leave to see his patient (right before the interval).
The moment he sees Nayanthara, he would go to her and say something like, "unge kitte konje over-a nadanthukitten" (laughs) "athelam maranturungge" (referring to the disturbance he gave) then he brings down his shades..."enna maranturadingge.."

After all these years, he still has not lost that touch, I must say! Rajini definitely has a natural flair when it comes to romantic scenes.

We have been talking about guru sishyan all t he time here you go.


''நான் அந்தக் கொலையைச் செய்யலே! நான் நிரபராதி... என்னை யாராவது காப்பாற்ற மாட்டீங்களா...?''

- தூக்குத் தண்டனைக் கைதி பாண்டியன் உருக்கமாகக் கதற, விடுதலைக் கைதிகளான ரஜினியும் (குரு) பிரபுவும் (சிஷ்யன்) உண்மையைக் கண்டறிய, கோதாவில் இறங்கும் ஆரம்பக் காட்சிகளில் நகைச்சுவை ஏராளம்!

கிட்டத்தட்ட இடைவேளை வரைக்கும் சீனியர் பார்ட்னர் ரஜினி செமை ஜாலி மூடில்! சி.பி.ஐ. ஆபீஸராகப் பிரபுவும், அவருக்கு உதவியாக ரஜினியும் வேடமிட்டு, போலீஸ் அதிகாரி வினுசக்ரவர்த்தியின் வீட்டில் சோதனை போடுவ தும்... அவரின் மனைவி மனோரமாவிடம் ஒப்புதல் வாக்கு மூலக் கையெழுத்துப் பெற்று, அதை வைத்துக்கொண்டு வினுவை பிளாக்மெயில் செய்வதும்... அரைகுறை இங்கிலீஷில் (நிறைய படங்களில் நிறைய பேர் பண்ணிய காரெக்டர்தான் என்றாலும்) அட்டகாசம் செய்கிறார் ரஜினி! இந்தச் சிரிப் புக் களேபரங்கள் முடியும்வரை - சொல்லப்போனால் முழுப் படத்திலுமே - பிரபு Second Fiddleதான்!


ஆனால், இடைவேளைக்குப் பிறகு, படு சொதப்பல். கள்ளக்கடத்தல் மன்னர் ரவிச்சந்திரன் (இவருக்கு வலக்கரம் சோ), அவர் தம்பி ராதாரவி ஓர் அணியில் சேர்ந்து, ஏதோ ஒரு ரகசியத்துக்காகச் செந்தாமரையைச் சித்ரவதை செய்துகொண்டிருக்க... கொலை செய்யப்பட்ட பெண் ரஜினியின் தங்கையாம்! பாண்டியன், ரஜினியின் தம்பியாம்! இவர்கள் சின்ன வயதில் பிரிந்தவர்களாம்! இப்படி... 'காதிலே பூ' என்று சொல்வது தவறு; 'பூக்கூடையில் காது' என்பதுதான் பொருத்தம்!

முன்பகுதியில், விலாநோகச் சிரிக்க வைக்கிறார் ரஜினி; பின்பகுதியில், எரிச்சலடைய வைக்கிறார் டைரக்டர்!

40/100

40/100 for Guru Sishyan is unpardonable. Vikatan is extremely inconsistent. A much worse film, murattukkaalai gets more than this and I don't even want to talk about the *gems* these days which got around 40.

Even in the 2nd half there was no dearth of funny scenes. Only the last 20 mins or so is ordinary. Guru Sishyan should have got around 47.

They were good till 10 years back barring few glitches. There were days we used to watch movie based on only vikatan reviews. They were normally harsh on masala movies irrespective of actors. Arguably Kamal had greatest success rate with vikatan reviews when compared with anyone else in Tamil Industry till 10 years back. (He deserved it more than anyone else is the truth). Even his masala movies faced high criticism. (For example SKV 43/100 and Kakki sattai 39/100)

As you said there is no dearth of funny scenes in GS. Agreed the film is a masala but whats the big deal. It made you and me and most of us laugh and it still works. The film has a good supporting cast in the form of Prabhu, Vinu, Radharavi, Cho and Manorama. Enna irundha than ivanga othupaanga nnu puriala. And i agree with you Murattu Kaalai is no comparison to GS. GS is funny-fantastic.

As a matter of fact 16 vayathinilae at 62.5 marks is highest ever by vikatan. Vikatan has its own standard for rating. IMO other kamal haasan films such as nayagan, mahanadhi and hey ram deserved more marks than 16 vayathinilae got only 60 each if that is the case.

16v aLavukku maRRathula either orinigalityO or nativityO irukkAdhu! You can say technically a little bit week but no other KH film has touched the heart of majority in TN. (I'm from the group that unless a film satifies majority, it could max be called good but never great. Disclaimer - the corollary is NOT TRUE!

mahAnadhi / HR were commercially far far below 16v and nAyakan too didn't have that nook and corner reach! TIME fellow doesn't know anything about TN -why, they didn't know much about even India till a few years back - and so his certificate doesn't mean much in this comparative analysis)

what originality/nativity was missed in mahanadhi?

Standing the test of time is one important factor for a movie to be called as a GREAT movie - I dont think 16 V stands above moives like Mahanadhi in that aspect..even today - "amma naan pass ayiyen"..that veterenary doctor ..

Viv,
Like I said, I belong to an "average" movie appreciator group and not a connoisseur:-)

mahAnadhi wasn't a big success even at the time of its release - standing the test of time comes much after that (barring a few brilliant portions, it was a bore and drag IMO - tons of 80's Malayalam movies were with similar themes but a lot more crispier, that's one of the reason I couldn't feel this 90's product a "fresh" one). Unnecessary & too many songs, which were also ordinary by IR standards is another reason. Not even one comes to my mind today - other than the sriranga ranga temple song - which, for an IR/KH movie - from my PoV - is nothing short of shocking!

I never felt that way for 16V songs (neither unnecessary not outdated). Also, even when I watched recently on dvd, 16V hasn't lost lusture :-)

Well, taste differs. In any case, AV can give marks only at a point of time :-)

Updating my Thalaivar DVD collection with the following movies (will be getting these 6 movies this weekend) - Thanga Magan, Padikkathavan, Thalapathy, Mannan, Annamalai, and Arunachalam.

Well, I had originally ordered about 20 of them, but these were the ones that the store had in their inventory at this time. I've asked them to get the other ones for me as soon as they can!
