based "K.B" Movie. The specialty of this movie is
"This movie is SUPER STAR RAJINIKANTH's First Movie
in TAMIL". Songs by Kanadhasan. Enjoy my review on
"Tamil Classic Movie Collection" Aboorva Ragangal.
STORY:
Any K.Balachander movie revolves around Character's inside a room
with not much of Helicopter fight or Gun Shooting or
villain chase etc etc. In this movie its "SREE
VIDHYA" so called as Bhairavi who is a singer and
"MAJOR" Sunder Rajan. Sree Vidhya who is searching for
some peace and happiness in her life and so is Major Sunderajan
who is very much worried about his Son "KAMAL" who gets
involved in unnecessary things and gets into trouble. Half hour
of the movie runs like this showing family problems in 1970
style, quarrel between Kamal and his Dad etc. Kamal who cant take
any more Rupture from his dad fights with him and leaves home and
starts his own life !
Sree Vidhya happen to meet Kamal one day in streets as he was
slapped by a group of unknown people. She helps Kamal in getting
recovered from the accident he had and Slowly Kamal gets
attracted towards Sree Vidya seeing the affection and Love and
decides to stay
in her house as a Paying guest. The relationship between both of
them can only be understood by people like K.B, Visu or Cho and
its above average people Standards. Similarly "MAJOR"
Sunder Rajan meets JAYA SUDHA who gives moral support to Major
asking about his Private life and giving him words of Love. MAJOR
who thinks JAYA SUDHA as her daughter requests her to stay in his
house as his Son Kamal leaves him. JAYA agrees to stay in MAJOR's
house seeing the LOVE and AFFECTION he showed on various occasion
thinking that he is a Gentle Man.
The movie runs for a while showing the day to day interaction
between the two FRIENDLY COUPLES (Kamal and Sree Vidhya)
and (Major Sunder Rajan and Jaya Sudha). Their
interaction turns into love as all the four are basically
searching for Some kind of LOVE from someone. One fine day Kamal
Proposes Sree Vidhya who is like his mom and says that he loves
her and Jayasudha proposes Major Sunder Rajan who is like her
dad. Its some thing like the recent Oscar movie "The
American Beauty" where Kevin Spacey proposes his daughters
Friend. Both Kamal and Jaya Sudha gets slaps from Sree Vidhya and
Major. Kamal decides to get out of Sree Vidhya's house. Sree
Vidhya says the truth that she has a "DAUGHTER AT HIS
AGE"!!! Meanwhile "SUPER STAR" gets introduced as
"X-LOVER" of SREE VIDHYA. Thalivar will come with a
JIBBA with is DADI and opens a Old Gate.
"Rajini Not only just opens the door in his first
best movie appearance but also opened the opportunities and
hearts of Tamil people & enters innnnnnnn........ with 1000
Madras Wistle" in his first movie.
Then comes KB's climax. Sree Vidhya's Daughter
is JAYA SUDHA who is Dating KAMAL's Father. Man its a confusion.
Where in the world this can happen. Daughter being Mother In Law
for Mom and Son being Father In Law for Father. Where in the
world this can happen. At last every one feels for the mistake
they have did in the past. KB Says Relations are made and are not
given. A Touch of class acting by all of them and the movie gets
over as JayaSudha and Sree Joins and Kamal and Major Joins
together.
K. BALACHANDER:
The real hero of the movie is K.BALACHANDER. I
think he is the director of last century. He is the person who
started to take family movies which attracted thousands of tamil
cinema fans. His movies will be within four walls and will have
real cream content. Each and every character in his movies
speaks. The combination of Rajini, Kamal and K.B worked out fine
in many movies. One good example is K.B's "BUVANA
ORU KELVI KURI" with Rajini. Another Movie which I
really liked in K.B's collection was "UNNAL MUDIYUM
THAMBI" with Kamal. It was an excellent movie which
didnt get proper recognition from the public. Of course
"SINDHU BHAIRAVI". K.B went to peak with his
SINDHU BHAIRAVI which fetched him lots and lots of
awards. One must see SUHASINI, SHIVA KUMAR and K.B Combination
in that movie. I need to write about that movie ASAP. His other
hits includes "AVARGAL" with Kamal, "Moonru
Muduchi" with Kamal, "Varumai Niram
Sivapu" with Kamal and Sree Devi,
"Punagai
Mannan" with Kamal. Later K.B started to
concentrate on T.V serials. K.BALACHANDER is a legend of Tamil
cinema. There is no doubt in it.
KAMAL, RAJINI and SREE VIDHYA:
KAMAL was excellent in his acting. But his hair style was
irritating. His Hair Style looked like a "SAPI POTA PANAG
KOTTAI". Another specialty of this movie is this movie was
SUPER STAR's first TAMIL MOVIE. He opens a Iron gate in his first
introduction scene. RAJINI I am a great fan of you and i must say
"You Opened our Heart and No one is there to Shut it down
Other than you". Thanks K.B for giving us SUPER
STAR of Tamil Nadu to us !!! Great Introduction. How about the
Female artist SREE VIDHYA and JAYASUDHA, Both of them looks like
"MALGOVA MAMBAZAM". Excellent figures We wish this
combination (RAJINI, KAMAL, K.B) will give us many more hits in
the future.
LOLLU COMMENTS:
Tamil film industry has never been out of talents. Right from
N.S. KRISHNAN, SHIVAJI GANESAN, Till today's KAMAL, Yesterdays
SRIDHAR, K. BALACHANDER till today's MANI RATHNAM, Yesterdays
M.S. Viswanathan, ILAYARAJA till today's A.R. REHMAN ... we can
say thousands of names. I would say K.BALACHANDER had his own
style in making movies and even today he is successful in what
ever he does. He is like god father of Tamil movie lovers. Not
only in directing movies but also in "DRAMA Field". He
is the "GURU" of our SUPER STAR "RAJINI
GANTH". I think he has done everything in the field of
Movies!
A person who is able to analyze a Problem and who is able to
solve it or give a right solution always wins, Its not only true
in Movie industry its the same fact even in writing software's
for customers. I always believe in the above Sentence. That might
be one of the reason for me being a successful Programmer in USA
for years. K.B follows the same strategy Rather I follow K.B's
strategy. "ABOORVA RAGANGAL" is one such movie which
revolves around Problems in our life although the problem seems
to be really complicated like "INTEGRATION" in Maths. A
movie about People who long for Love. When some one is able to
give it people are ready to accept it without thinking about
anything and they are put into an Odd Situation. Result is a big
Zero. K.BALACHANDER Climax is always the best and he clearly
shows that its not going to work when things are too complicated.
"ABOORVA RAGANGAL" is a CLASSIC MOVIE and LOLLU
EXPRESS grades the movie to be 90/100 for its extraordinary story
line and direction and acting by the stars.
