***aha aha, oru quiz thread-ai actress name and origin agazhvaaraichi mandram-a maathittiye, ennamo poda, Plum, unnala mattum epdi ipdi...****

[app_engine]

Most of the yesteryear actresses - i.e. pre-BR era - at least could speak Thamizh (whether by "origin" in the state - like Telugu Sridevi born in Sivakasi etc - or otherwise).

Once that was broken - with a Hemamalini dubbing for Rati Agnihotri kind - even male stars from origin elsewhere had a field day (Mohan being the most prominent one and Vijay's uncle dubbed for him mostly).

If we discount the "post-independence-state-division" parameter, a number of them could fit into "born-in-Thamizh speaking nAdu", like Bangalore / Palakkad etc.
(For e.g. MGR / MSV / Rajinikanth who were probably born before 1950 when the republic formalized states. Interestingly, MGR was born in Srilanka)

Ok, weld movies pathi ellam enakku remba theriyadhu so oru mokkai answer:
RD Niro was Appu(Gregorius Appulonius) in Taxi Driver
Prashanth was Taxi Driver in Appu

nInga romba deep'lA pORInga. There's a very apparent connection between the two films.

[equanimus]

Ok, let me spell it out. 'Appu' is an indirect (and almost unrecognizable) remake of 'Taxi Driver.' Mahesh Bhatt remade the latter as 'Sadak', which Vasanth faithfully remade in Tamil.

Autism afflicted people have trouble speaking besides other deficiencies. Siththan talks (in the climax) and sings his chant throughout the movie. He is just hyper-introverted and asocial.

No, Bharathi's lines are sung at the end of the stage play (as is the custom) after Gangabai and Sakubai go blank on stage ("அன்னையின் விருப்பம் அதுவானால்..."). Does anyone know which play they are enacting by the way?

That said, you're of course right that Raju is an artist at heart (ரொம்ப ஆர்டிஸ்டு) in the film. Incidentally, he is named after a Tamil writer (http://ta.wikipedia.org/wiki/சுப்ரமண்ய_ராஜு).

1)Tajmahal : MAran:: Vettiya madichu kattu: x

2) x: aaNpaavam: : y: iruvar uLLam

3) If y = 300 then z = 1


Solve for z

[Plum]

Is x=X?

[P_R]

Yes

[Plum]

z= Jayalalitha or MGR?

[P_R]

No.
Can you please explain your reasoning ?

[Plum]

Based on y= Karunanidhi, who wrote Iruvar ULLAm. Havent cracked it yet. Is y=karunanidhi at all?

[Plum]

And dint use the 300-1 clue at all

[P_R]

Based on y= Karunanidhi, who wrote Iruvar ULLAm. Havent cracked it yet. Is y=karunanidhi at all?

No

I guess Maran is throwing you off-track. I am referring to the Satyaraj film Maaran.

x,y and z are all movies

[Plum]

Ok, one more
"If y=300" does it mean that f(y) = 300 for some function f? As in, it is not a conditional if really, is it?

So, essentially, can I interpret it as:
"f(y)=300, for some function f
f(z)=1, for that function. Find Z"

[Plum]

I am fairly sure y is the 300th film of artiste A, and z is his/her first film?

[P_R]

I am fairly sure y is the 300th film of artiste A, and z is his/her first film? Yes that is correct. Now that should make things easy

[Nerd]

x is kannathil muthamittaal or perhaps Prithvi Pandiyarajan's first film?

[kid-glove]

x is kannathil muthamittaal or perhaps Prithvi Pandiyarajan's first film?

Appadi pOna..Maybe Sangili is the answer?

[Nerd]

Umm.. What's y? Iruvar uLLam is famous for? Someone's debut? Havent seen it :oops:

[P_R]

x is kannathil muthamittaal or perhaps Prithvi Pandiyarajan's first film?

The latter is the answer...elucidate your reasoning thus far so others can plunge in

[Nerd]

1) Debut films of sons. Dir - Asst director connection. TajMahal (BR) : Maran (Manivannan) :: Vettiya madichu kattu(Bhagyaraj) : Kai vantha kalai (? Pandiyarajan)

2) Debut film of their dads (?)
Kai vantha kalai : aaN paavam :: y : iruvar uLLam

[P_R]

Reasoning perfect for 1

2) No. The debut connection is done with 1. Its about the films themselves being related.
btw wasn't KannirAsi before aaNpaavam ?

Pandiyarajan did not act in Kanni Rasi, I think :)

OK, "y" is once more.

KVK has footages from Aan paavam (thanks to google :oops: ) :: iruvar uLLam : once more.

PaNdiyarajan comes in the scene in the temple (Prabhu places application for archanai :lol:)

Anyway, you solved it..now z is a formality :clap:

Forgive my ignorance, but what is z still? Once More is 300th movie of?

[equanimus]

And z is 'parAsakthi'?

[Plum]

Equa, 300th movie of Sivaji is not Thrisoolam? Was it 200th? Conpeesan

[Nerd]

I wasn't sure if "once more" is his 300th. Adhaan silent-A thoonga pOittEn :)

Thirisoolam is definitely the 200th.

Hubber Raghavendra's site lists 305 films in the filmography

288 + 17 (guest roles)

All 17 were pre "once more"
Of the 288, there were 5 films after "Once more".

So, one by two, two by three....Once More is the 300th film.

no

[ajaybaskar]

i am sure that the 2nd answer of yours is wrong. But on the first one, RVU had mentioned another film as his first movie.

[Appu s]

is it puthiya vaanam or something ? :roll:

[ajaybaskar]

equa, is 'urimai geetham' the film with prabhu and sivakumar in the lead or the one with prabhu and karthik in the lead?

[ajaybaskar]

yes, appu

[equanimus]

For K. Subhash, I guessed it could be wrong. Actually I vaguely recall taking notice of K. Subhash's name as the director of some film presumably from the late '80s, but don't remember the film now!

[Appu s]

ok the one with sivaji and sathyaraj :D

[ajaybaskar]

it was 'Kaliyugam', starring Prabhu and Raghuvaran

[equanimus]

equa, is 'urimai geetham' the film with prabhu and sivakumar in the lead or the one with prabhu and karthik in the lead?
The latter. The former came in the '90s....

and I'll hack that as a question. Which film is ajaybaskar talking about?

[ajaybaskar]

uruthimozhi...

[Plum]

K Subash is kaliygam - Raghuvaran-Amala - Chandrabose and his ilanguiyil paadudho was popular for some time.

[equanimus]

it was 'Kaliyugam', starring Prabhu and Raghuvaran
Ok, I guess I've never heard of this one!

is it puthiya vaanam or something ? :roll:
A quick search on the web indicates that both 'pudhiya vAnam' and 'urimai gItham' came in the same year (1998). But I do think the latter was his first film.

[ajaybaskar]

which famous actor played the role of the rich man in Kamal Haasan starrer 'Pesum Padam'?

Correct!

Another one:
Shankar has often mentioned in his interviews about a film (a "delicate" and "sensitive" film, naturally!) which he had originally wanted to make before he settled for 'Gentleman.' What was the film supposed to be called? Now somebody else is all set to make a film with the same title. Who?

U r rite, PR. Pesum Padam/Pushpak is the only film that he has acted, if u and me are not wrong. But I know that he is a renowned marathi theatre artist and KH, Singeetham were impressed with his performance in some marathi play and had cast him in that role it seems.
