MAKKAL THILAGAM MGR !!!

[S.Balaji]

Soorya,
Enga veetu pillai came in 1965. If you would have watched the movie you could see MGR's voice was normal in that movie. He was shot on his throat during 1967. And came out from DMK at 1972.

Thirumaran

though this movie came well before he was out from DMK, just read the lines of NAAN AANAYITAAL :

NAAN AANAIYITAAL ...ADHU NADANDHU VITAAL INGU EZAIGAL VEDHANAI PADAMATAAR ...UYIR ULLAVARAI ORU THUNBAM ILLAI AVAR KANEER KADALILAY VIZA MAATAAR ( about his future plans ?)

ORU THAVARU SEIDHAAL ADHAI THERINDHU SEIDHAAL AVAN DEVAN ENDRAALUM VIDA MAATEN ( probably mukaa and his governance ?? )

ORU KALAM YEN KADAMAI VARUM INDHA KAYAVAR KOOTATHAI OZIPPEN
PODHU NEEDHIYILAY PUDHU PAADHAYILAY VARUM NALOOR MUGATHILAY VIZIPEN !!



this makes me wonder whether he already had some hidden agenda !!

Balaji,
I too believe he would have definetly had some long term plan when he started become famous. May not be exactly like becoming CM. May be something like a Kingmaker. The above bolded lines were just accidental which came true in later days to a certain extent. During that time he was having a huge respect towards Anna and MK.

One more song which accidently came true for MGR.

tharmam thalaikaakum,
thakka samayathil uyir kaakum,
kooda irunthae kuzhi parithaalum,
koduthathu kaathu nirkumm..

As per the lines his generosity only i think saved his life two times..
Once when he was shot in his throat.
Other when he was very serious and admitted in America.

Also, they've made some SERIOUS changes to the lyrics of that song ...

* It used to be "Oru Kaalam Varum, En kadamai varum, intha Kaakaigal kootathai ozhipaen" ..... Now it's ""Oru Kaalam Varum, En kadamai varum, intha KOOTATHIN AATATHAI ozhipaen"

* The order of these lines in the 2 stanzas are changed .... It used to be

Ingu oomaigal yengavum unmaigal thoongavum naanaa paarthirupaen

Oru thalaiavan undu avan kolgai undu athai eppothum kaathirupaen

Oru kaalam Varum ..... and then it follows ....

But now, they've swapped the lines in between the two stanzas ..

Ingu oomaigal yengavum unmaigal thoongavum naanaa paarthirupaen

Oru thalaiavan undu avan kolgai undu athai eppothum kaathirupaen

Munbu yesu vanthaar, pibu Gandhi vanthaar, intha maanidar thirunthida piranthaar .....

It's sooooo funny, cos there is no relationship at all or connectivity between the lines .... They talk abt Oomaigal and then Maanidar Thirunthida ???

Anybody have any idea why they swapped it ?? Similarly in the first stanza, they now talk abt Ooraar Kaal pidipaar, and then say Oru Kaalam alam varum en kadamai varum etc etc ...

Mannnn

I can never forget those days when he was hospitalised in Apollo Chennai..........
it was utter chaos and anarchy
R.M.Veerappan ( satya movies ) took charge in brief and ran the elections while MG was in sick bed in Brooklyn

Dr. Pratap C Reddy of Apollo would have heaved a sigh of relief when MG was moved to US...

IF SOMETHING WRONG HAD HAPPENED TO HIM IN APOLLO .....I bet Apollo would have got hospitalised !

And they used to play Aandavanae un paathangalai naan kaneeril neeraatunean song from OLI VILAKKU in every Tea stall in TN .... The catch phrase of ADMK during that election used to be, "Naangal paduthukondae jaipom" .....

I think the entire song itself it worth a research material now !

Probably Murali Srinivas or Joe can throw some light on the changes


I have also heard about PUDHIYA VAANAM

From UDAYA SOORIYANIN PAARVAYILAY

to PUDHIYA SOORIYANIN PAARVAYILAY

true ....aandavanay un paadhangalai was the catch song and election song for admk during that phase...
While mukaa was vociferously shouting on top of the world that MG cannot speak , cannot walk cannot do anything .....

all of a sudden a video clipping came from Brooklyn and it was flashed in Doordharshan and all ADMK election vans showing MG in hospital showing V

and this created waves amongst the tn voters and the rest was history

indeed it was a remarkable come back of MG which lasted for 3 years

and finally when he landed in meenambaakam airport he was given a grand reception and on seeing the ocean of a crowd, unable to control emotions, he cried .... i still remember this

Actually on that election mukaa went in extend of saying that, If MGR comes back with full health he will hand over the rule to MGR. Hence asking the people to vote for him.

Coming to songs..

Also there was a line in...
Nalla Nalla Pillagalai nambi song..
....
Maedayil Muzhangu Thiru.Vi.ka poal.. in the movie.
Actually the line was
Maedayil Muzhangu Arignar Anna Poal..
..
All to do with the ruler at that time..

[soorya]

I read in some article that even Naan Aanayittaal... song had the starting line like this.....

Naan arasan(King) endraal... en aatchi(Govt.) endraal..... intha aezhaigal vethanai pada maattaar...

Then MGR asked Vaali to change the line, it seems.

Not sure.....
