These films were all about forbidden love. A man coveting his brother’s wife (Vaali), a man who wanted his daughter-in-law (Sindhu Samavali), a woman who lusted after her husband’s brother (Uyir), and a villain who killed his wife so that he could have a shot at possessing her sister (Aasai). Ajith and Prakash Raj had the most success in these avatars although Uyir and Sindhu Samavali also made an impact with the bold theme.
