Even
time cannot take away the magic from certain
things in life. This has proved again with
MGR starrer Nadodi Mannan hitting the silver
screens in Chennai now. As far as Tamil
cinema is concerned MGR is the undisputed
king in terms of commercially successful
movies. His biggest fan following is the
single most proof for this and this continues
even now. |

|
He
was a gold mine for producers and
never let them down. His movies
have always been a success even
in 3rd and 4th round releases .
Such is his screen presence and
charisma.
Cashing on this and the success
of Imsai Arasan, Nadodi Mannan is
being screened in Bharat, Raj and
Lakshmi in Chennai and Narayanamurthy
in Kanchipuram now. The movie is
running to packed houses and is
getting a response like that of
a newly released movie.

Imsai
Arasan with Vadivelu in a dual role
has already grossed 10 crores and
is expected to touch the 40 crore
mark soon.
Tamil cine industry is totally taken
aback by its success. When Imsai Arasan
was released, people were not sure
about its commercial viability as
the theme is not a contemporary one
and belonged to the 1950s and 60s.
But its success has put everyone in
a different gear now. |

|
|
Now
with the re-screening of Nadodi Mannan,
we can expect all the old royal theme movies
of Sivaji Ganesan and MGR to hit the screens
and run successfully too.
