For those who don't know, Sivaji playing Sivaji here (see previous page), based on (Aringar) Annadhurai's dialogue (thanks for the info Gopal,S), which was part of a bigger Stage Drama. Sivaji who was just actor Ganesan back then appeared as Sivaji in that drama and a very impressed PeriyAr gave Ganesan the title Sivaji. And the title stuck. This small scene was part of a film called Raman Ettanai Ramanadi.
Interesting part of the movie is, this play apart, is that NT plays an actor after the second half and we get to see snippets of his films prior to this film.
