Ramanathan was equally active as before, composing music for as many as seven movies in two years (1956-57), a creditable record anyone would be proud of as a music composer. Full marks to the ace composer Ramanathan! The movies included‘Naan Petra Selvam’ (1956), ‘Ambikapathi’, ‘Chakravarthi Thirumagal’, ‘Aaravalli’, ‘Manamagan Thevai’ ‘Karpukkarasi’, ‘Puthumai Pitthan’and ‘Vanangamudi’(all made in 1957). Quite an achievement, that! ‘Aaravalli’ was produced in Modern Theaters by the Salembased movie mogul T. R. Sundaram and was a success mainly because of the comedian A.Karunanidhi and his team and the comedy songs. The three songs filmed around them singing with off-screen voices of noted singers Tiruchi Loganathan and Sirgazhi Govindarajan became hits and are still popular after more than half century. Of course, the credit goes to G. Ramanathan who composed these songs in pure classical Carnatic music ragaswithout mixing them with ragas of other schools. Earlier, there had been a movie ‘Aaravalli Sooravalli’ with the same story released in 1946, produced by Southern Theatres, directed by forgotten filmmaker C. V. Raman and written by G. S. Bhagavathar (Ramanathan’s elder brother) and shot at Modern Theaters. Interestingly, Ramanathan had composed the music for that film too, and it had the well-known actors of the day V. A. Chellappa and Serukalathur Sama, supported by P. S Sivabhagyam, Thavamani Devi and others. The film flopped and nobody remembers it today. The next version under review, called merely ‘Aaravalli’, wasshot at Modern Studios and directed by Krishna Rao who was on its regular pay-roll. The story is about seven sisters, and is said to have some links the Hindu epic Mahabharatham. Two elder sisters (G. Varalaskhmi and Mohana) rule the kingdom enslaving princes, kings, warriors and such persons of valour having won over them by asking them to solve puzzles and perform deeds which are almost impossible to do (like giving a small metal ring to a big made-man like Bhima and asking him to go through it)! Those who lose are treated as slaves and forced to do menial tasks like sweeping floors and milk blind donkeys! The Pandava hero Bhima (R. Balasubramaniam) goes to take up the challenge and loses because, with his bulk, he cannot slip through a small metal ring! A young prince (S.G. Easwaran) takes up the challenge and one of the seven sisters (Mynavathi) falls in love with him. How with her help the prince wins the contests, sets right the injustice done to the many enslaved princes and also brings back the dead ones forms the rest of the film. G. Varalakshmi, the multi-lingual star, plays a main role in her characteristic vigour and verve. She was of the same mould in real life too and had slapped even senior actresses on the set shocking everyone around! Mohana as the younger sister was active for a few years but soon faded away. Not many remember her today. Lyrics were by Pattukottai Kalyanasundaram, andKa. Mu. Sheriffwhile the music, of course, was composed by G. Ramanathan. He sang the title song too off screen. Easwaran was a cousin of Gemini Ganesh for whom he worked as manager. For some reasons he left him and decided to try his hand at acting. He did not meet with much success, faded away, and involved himself in buying and selling movie areas as movie mediator. The film also had movie and stage starV. Gopalakrishnan, comedians Kaka Radhakrishnan, A. Karunanidhi, T.P. Muthulakshmi, M, Saroja, ‘Jayakodi ‘ Natarajanand others. (One of the slave milking a blind donkey was a handsome young man who soon broke into limelight under the name C. L. Anandan, playing the hero in movies like ‘Vijayapuri Veeran’ andothers. A Muslim by birth, he was a group dancer in Modern Theatres and he and his friend (noted choreographer of the day) Salim used to move around small towns and villages near Salem in an open truck dancing and collecting money. In later years, Anandan played the villain roles in some of the movies of Muktha V. Srinivasan and faded away soon. He is best remembered for his performance in the Citadel Studios film, ‘Vijayapuri Veeran’.) The film fared well at the box office and the main reason was the songs.There were nearly 8 to 9 songs, and the three comedy songs became hits. More about these comedy songs follows. (To be continued) By Our Staff Reporter More than thousand persons participated in a walkathon to spread awareness of cancer in an event organized by Thenmozhi Satsang in Postal Colony on Sunday By Our Staff Reporter Ramsuratkumar Satsang will chant Yogi Ramsuratkumar Namajapam on Sunday, Jan. 11, from 4 p.m at 22, Raja Apartments, Postal Colony 4 th Street, West Mambalam.

Kudos to Mambalam Times for its diversity in news content Sir, Thanks to your pioneering efforts, a number of neighbourhood newspapers have sprouted in Chennai. However few can match the diversity of your editorial content. Though it is common for neighbourhood newspapers to carry only local events and civic issues, it is quite rare to read reports like ‘CB-CID to probe youth’s alleged torture in police custody’ as had appeared in Mambalam Times last week. It is in this context I wish to congratulate Mambalam Times for its bold approach to report such matters which are equally a part and parcel of neighbourhood news. The latest report reveals that the probe by the CB-CID has confirmed the involvement of three police personnel in the sexual torture of the youth. While the police sometimes have to resort to ‘third’ degree methods to ferret out the truth, this is a dastardly act and the offenders need to be suitable punished to set an example to other officials in the department. – K.
