Enjoy my Review on Lollu Classic Collection
"Thalivasal".
STORY:
Normally people go to College for Three reasons.
1. To Study and get a degree which normally only Fruits sitting
in Front bench does.
2. To hang around with Girls and freque out with them like going
to movies in Devi theatre, Vandalur Zoo, Hanging in PTC Bus,
Driving a Bike without Silencer in it, Wearing Jeans and T-shirt
although it looks like a 'Panangal Park' Poruki and to develop
One side love with girls in Class and get a Good Thirunelveli
Halwa from them.
3. To create problem in college, to Public not knowing what they
do, Breaking bus, Drinking, Taking drugs etc etc.
The first two reasons are acceptable and Its part of most of
college guys. Even the girls going to college want to have fun
doing the first two things. But the third one is stupidity which
irritates most of them. "THALAIVASAL" is
a movie that Projects the Thrid topic and how a
good Principal can change the Hard Rock Hearts of the students.
The director was quite successful in it
The movie starts with the normal "College
Gallatta" like a 25 year old guy kissing a 60 Year
old "GRANDMA" and the college
principal suspends him out of the college. The college is called
as "NACHIYAPPAN COLLEGE". Its some
thing like our "Miami
University in Miami".
Day by day the Rupture of the college guys goes up and even the
public were affected because of these guys. The guys in college
were influenced by a Local Dada called "BEDA
SEYD" (Nasar) who sells 'GANJA' to the college guys
and who basically rules the college from outside. He has his
fellow people who goes to college and sells 'GANJA' there. As
usual there are two Weight Gangs in the college. One is "ANAND's
GANG" and the other one is "SELVA's
GANG". They both fight with each other for no
reason to show who is big! The movie runs for half hour showing
the gang fights and two three "GANNA" songs and
BEDA SEYD's cruel character which were really
interesting and entertaining.
Time comes when the Management of the college decides that they
need to change the Principal. "Nepolean" who is the
vice Principal dies to sit in that post but Management asks
"SPB" to take the post. The real 'GALIJ" starts
when SPB steps into the campus. Our guys ("Thalaivasal"
Vijay, Anand, Selva starts their "GANNA" to welcome the
new Principal.
"Eye Adai Udai Uttan Parru Dolu Dacku Dumma
"Eye Adai Udai Uttan Parru Dolu Dacku Dumma
Machan utta Rodu Parru Amma
Nanga Illama College Nadakumma .....
Eye Natchiappan Collegele Paduranga Gaana
Unn Udar ingu Venna
Machan utta Rodu Parru Amma
Nanga Illama College Nadakumma .....
Eye thalak thalak Iyee Soyeee.... with 100 Rowdy Whistle
and these guys dancing 'Savu Dance' was really different and
enjoyable after seeing bunch of Love subjects.
SPB then introduce himself as Principal of the college and also
greets the guys that "DOLLU DAKKU DUMMA"
song was good. Then comes the college elections. Some cheap
scenes like the College Leaders takes these guys to a
"Prostitute" Place to get their votes gets over and
"MADIPU HAMSA" gets introduced as the person who runs
the show. She walks showing her hips as if she runs APTECH
COMPUTERS or NIIT with a weird look! Elections gets over and
"ANAND" becomes the College people leader and again one
more "GANNA" Song from "Thalivasal" VIJAY.
Vaa Munimma Vaa Munimma Vaa Munimma Vaaa..
Vaa Munimma Vaa Munimma Vaa Munimma Vaaa..
"Ado Paru Parimala Avalukeena Irumala
Naan Vangi tharen formulae
Avva Ayuduva Normala "
"Ado Varra Ponnu Avaloda Peeru Nunnu
Ava Potu Irukka ........
Ava Look our Gunnu
Ava Thinra Paru Oru Bunnu......
What a song what a co-ordination. I think "GANNA"
songs have its own flavor although its only for college
guys. I have 100's of GANNA Songs! Mail me personally to get the
lyrics.
Now its SPB's turn to make the college as "OXFORD
UNIVERSITY". He does various things like working
with them and make them feel for what they are doing. First thing
is "Uniting the two gangs to one". That is uniting "ANAND's
Gang and KALAI's Gang". Nasar gets damn wild as he
is not able to Sell "GANJA" to the students as SPB
kicks out all the non college guys who used to visit the college
without studying there. He then gets hold of
"Thalaivasal" Vijay who is a visiting Member of
college. Nasar
who cant take all these things plans to kill SPB and
SPB gets slapped by some unknown people and gets admitted in the
hospital. The students starts to feel for the mistakes they did
in the past. SPB scarifies his life for students and makes the
collage a green one.
S.P.B & NASAR:
Both SPB and NASAR were excellent in this movie. One must see
NASAR with his "Kurtha" and a Weird
teeth talking in SYED language. Excellent actor. Also SPB who
proved that he can even act in this movie. He is a good actor
too. Example "Keladi Kanmani" with Radhika and as a
Father in Kadalan. But in Thalaivasal he was outstanding as a
College Principal. The Scene in which he asks
"Thalaivasal" Vijay "What is meant by "MADIPU"
Hamsa and what does "MADIPU" stands for and
Vijay replying that its the "TWO FOLDS" that
comes on her hip!! Real sweet and well taken scenes.
LOLLU COMMENTS:
A well taken College movies are always a hit. Even at the age of
60 people say that "I am from Annamalai
University" or A well taken College movies are
always a hit. Even at the age of 60 people say that "I am
from Annamalai University" or "I am from SRM" or "I
am from Anna University". Even a guy who did his B.A
from Kandaswamy Arts College feels great about his
college and loves his college. Its because of the age and the
kind of fun you have in that age cannot be compared to anything !
Even if you work in World Trade Center or in Microsoft, We still
talk about our collage days over the phone for hours. The fun we
had with our Collage mates, with our Lecturers with our Principal
etc etc etc. Every time when our Princi calls our parents to
report about us to our parents. Its all fun.
'Thalaivasal' is one such movie with not much weigh given to hero
or artist. "Thalaivasal" Vijay a real good introduction
and who became real famous in TV Dramas and of course
"Madipu" Hamsa for Jollus. For those who love
"GANNA" songs and those who wants a change from Love
topics we can always watch this movie. SPB and NASAR did a
wonderful Job in acting especially NASAR really went to peak.
There are some very good songs in this movie like "Unnai
Thota Thendral Engu Ennai thottu Sonadu Oru Seidi" By SPB !
Real Class song. My Only advice is "Having fun in college is
good and One must enjoy it". Sing, Dance, JOLLUFY, LOLLUFY
no problem. But the only thing you have to keep in mind is
"What ever you do must be enjoyed by Others" or else
the story will be another "THALAIVASAL", An
enjoyable movie with lots of masala and is worth 80/100 for
giving good entertainment.
