    TR Mahalingam

    Topic started by RV (@ 1cust34.tnt2.sfo2.da.uu.net) on Fri Jun 19 22:14:50 EDT 1998.

    After MKTB and PUC, TR Mahalingam was briefly at the top of the charts. Shall we start discussing him ?

    TR Mahalingam was the successor to MKTB & PUC. Several of his movies including Sri Valli, Naam Iruvar and Vedhala Ulagam were big hits. He made a comeback with Malaiyitta Mangai. Unwilling to act without singing, he went back to the drama tradition. He made occasional forays into films whenever he could sing - Agatthiyar being one of the most significant movies.

    Several songs in Naam Iruvar were very good. Most of them are by Bharathiyar. Produced by AVM, who held the copyright to Bharathiyar songs then, it starred Sarangapani, B.R. Panthulu the famous producer of later years, Kumari Kamala ( a child - teenager star ), VK Ramasami ( an unbelievably thin VKR - He looks like Nagesh in this movie. )

    Solai Malaroliyo - Unadhu
    Sundarap Punnagaidhan

    Karunamoorthi Gandhi Mahatma ( female singer )

    Several others....


    Vedhala Ulagam was produced by AVM again starring Sarangapani and Kumari Kamala. Some of the songs were

    Odi Vilayadu Pappa
    Kottu Murase?
    Theeradha Vilayattup Pillai
    Vidudhalai Vidudhalai ? ( DK Pattmmal, I think )

    Malaiyitta Mangai has the famous "Senthamizh Then Mozhiyal". Produced by Kannadasan.

    In Thiruvilaiyadal, "Isaith Thamizh Nee Seidha" was quite popular.

    Agatthiyar has several songs by him
    Namacchivaya Ena Solvome
    Isaiyai Thamizhai Iruppavane

    I think he acted in Raja Raja Cholan too but I am not sure.

    I also remember junk songs like
    "Sottu Sottunu Sottudhu Paru Ange"

    I beleive he was called "Kittappavin Edhiroli". Did SGK act in any movies ? The only song I remember is "Kayadha Kanagatthe".

    I remember seeing his name in "Pattikada Pattanama" though I dont remember in what context.

    Good topic for old timers. We have very much to discuss here. Let us gather the views of others first.

    The film Pattikkada Pattanama was shot in Solavanthan village (near Madurai)owned by TR Mahalingam. There was an acknowledgement for him in that movie.

    Manisekaran, veettu vaasalukkae vandhutteenga. Sozhavandhaan is my native place. TRM owns quite a bit of land there, but by no means does he own the village. If I lived in India, I could have all you DF guys over to our Thennandhoappu. Hmmm...memories.

    TRM sang two great songs in the movie Thiruvilaiyaadal (in which he stars as Paanapattar):
    The one that comes immediately to mind is
    "Isaithamizh Nee seidha arum SAdhanai"

    I haven't heard much of Kittappa or Chinnappa. I have heard MKT. To my knowledge, I haven't heard anyone's voice go as high as TRM and stay there as long. Amazing voice.

    Manisekaran:
    As always, some of us who cannot add to this topic, but would like to learn more, look forward your write-up on TRM. Thank you in advance.
