TAMIL CINEMA 75 A LOOK BACK
Actor Raghavan passes away
By RANDOR GUY
G. RAMANATHAN - 24
While 1950s chased the fast approaching next decade1960s, G. Ramanathan, movie music maestro, was in his best
form since he had begun composing songs several years earlier.
In 1956 he scored music for a hit movie ‘Naan Petra Selvam’
which was directed by K. Somu, an experienced Tamil filmmaker
with a good track record. Earlier he had worked as Assistant
Director under the American Tamil filmmaker, Ellis R.Dungan.
Produced by A. M. Ismail for Pioneer Productions, it was
written by the leading film personality of Tamil cinema, A. P.
Nagarajan, who wrote stories and dialogues for many movies,
directed quite a many and also acted in more than many!
Tamil film actor V. S.
Raghavan passed away in his
sleep in a hospital in T. Nagar
on Jan. 24. He was 89 and is
survived by his sons
Srinivasan and Krishna, and a
grandson.
A veteran of more than 1,000
films, Raghavan was seen
The film had the Tamil film icon Sivaji Ganesan and multi- recently in ‘Oru Kanniyum
lingual star-actress, G. Varalaskhmi in lead roles with an Moonu Kalavaanikalum’
excellent supporting cast consisting of top class artistes like M.
N. Nambiar, M. N. Rajam, K. Sarangapani, V. K. Ramasami
and many others. J. G. Vijayam, who had worked for many
movies of Modern Theatres, Salem, was the man behind the
camera while the film was edited by Vijayarangam who also
made movies.
(2014) and TV serials ‘Valli’,
‘En Iniya Thozhi’ and ‘Uyirmei’.
He began his career as a subeditor in Maalathi magazine
and went on to act in stage
plays. After acting in a play
‘Vairamaalai’, Raghavan
made his film debut in the
screen adaptation of the play
in 1954.
Former Chief Minister J.
Jayalalithaa paid tributes to
the veteran artiste in a press
release. “He treated everybody
with love and affection. His
death is a great loss to the film
industry. I convey my heartfelt
condolences to his family and
his friends in the film
fraternitym,” she said.
Vacant TNHB complex being
misused
It was a family melodrama heavy on sentiments and Shivaji
Ganesan rose to great heights as usual, and his performance
as the hero was well supported by the multilingual stars
actress G. Varalaskhmi. With a family theme, the movie lent
itself to songs and there were more than nine of them. One
particular song, ‘Naan petra selvam, nalamaana selvam’
became a super hit, sung off-screen by T. M. Soundararajan
who considered it as one of his best. Composed in the classical
raga, Jonpuri, not surprisingly, the song became a big hit. The
lyrics were by Ka. Mu. Sheriff, one of the leading lyricists of
Tamil Cinema.
By Our Staff Reporter
Book festival till March 31
Semmangudi Srinivasa Iyer sang the song at high speed
known in Classical Carnatic Music as ‘rendaam kaalam’ which
is faster than the ‘mudhal kaalam’, which is slow-paced.
According to tradition, there are only three kaalams depending
on the speed. A legendary musician of the past centuries
Shatkaala Govinda Maarar was believed to have sung in six
kaalams! Hence the prefix to his name! Sadly there were no
recordings in that era of his singing. How human bodies can
perform at such high speed without becoming incoherent is
difficult to imagine by us mere poor mortals!
Other movies of 1957 for which music was composed by
Ramanathan include ‘Aaravalli’, ‘Manamagan Thevai’,
‘Chakravarthi Thirumagal’, ‘Rani Lalithangi’, ‘Puthumai
Pitthan’, ‘Vanangaamudi’, ‘Puthu Vazhvu’, ‘Sarangadhara’,
‘Kaathavarayan’, ‘Uthama Puthiran’ and ‘Veera Pandya
Kattabomman’, an excellent collection of movies in a single
year. Many songs in them became hits.
‘Aaravalli’, made in 1957, has already been discussed in the
earlier chapter in full. Many of the comedy songs in the movie
became popular and are heard by people to this day.
The next film of 1957 for Ramanathan was ‘Ambikapathi’,
a remake of the 1937 super hit movie of M. K. Thyagaraja
Bhagavathar, a folk myth tale about a Chola King, his
daughter Amaravathi, her love for the poet Ambikapathi,
the son of the legendary poet Kamban who wrote the Tamil
version of Ramayana.

Iyer, Madurai Mani Iyer, G. N. Balasubramaniam, M.S.
Subbulakshmi, N.C.Vasanthakokilam, (sadly neglected today,)
M.L.Vasanthakumari and several others. The most popular
song in this raga is ‘Aasai mugham marandhu poachey, idhai
yaaridam solvenadi thozhee’. This popular song was written by
Mahakavi Subramania Bharathiyar and practically every
musician worth his name has sung this song in his sabha
concerts.
Another song that became popular was ‘Vaazhndalum
yesum, thaazhndhalum yesum’. It was also picturised on
Sivaji Ganesan. Both the above songs in the movie were
rendered by the maestro of movie music T. M. Soundararajan,
who perhaps sang the most number of songs off the screen in
the history of Tamil Cinema.

yards a couple of days back. Erected originally close to a telephone booth, it has now
been relocated close to a residential complex
on the street.
Puzzled at the mysterious movement of the
nameboard, residents, suspecting that it could
be the handiwork of vendors/hawkers, checked
with them. They too were equally surprised
at the sudden over-night happening and told
us that they had had no hand in the ‘operation’.
We immediately contacted the AE of Ward
136. He also stated that the Corporation had
not moved the sign. Then, who did it? Who
will resolve the puzzle? Will the civic body
help us find an answer? – T. Nagar Residents’ Welfare Association, Rangan

Smoking in tea stalls
S. SIVAKAMI
S. Sivakami (resident of Flat G, Kris
Apartments, 42, Kripasankari Street West
Mambalam) passed
away on Jan. 24. She
was 89. She was the
wife of late A. Subramonia Iyer of Trivandrum.
Sivakami is survived
by 4 sons Sankaranarayanan, Krishnamoorthy, Sundaram and
Padmanabhan. She had
been a resident of West
Mambalam for more
than 25 years. As per
her wishes her eyes
were donated to Rajan
Eye Care.
Sir, - I wish to bring to your notice the
smoking menace in West Mambalam particularly in tea stalls which one has to go to
frequently. No smoking sign is painted but
people smoke right under it and not outside.
Tea stall owners are not at all bothered.
Central and State governments have made
laws to prevent smoking in public places but
to no avail. Enforcing authorities do not take
any concrete action. Even Chennai Corporation harps on the slogan “Smoke-free Chennai”
but without any results.
Inspections by health officials and fining of
tea stall owners is not evident.
The only option is to ban the selling of
cigarettes and tobacco products near tea stalls.
