    dear paanza and rathi,
    thank you for joining. as you say " sila nerangalil sila manidhargal" made into a film. this i reffered in my previous posts.
    another master piece of Jeyakanthan's " unnaipol oruvan" was made into a film. Kanthimathi was introduced in that film. The film was made by the author himself. though the movie depicted the novel in good way, it failed in the box office.
    A short novel by M.S.Perumal, was made into abeautiful movie by K.Balachandar as " Aval oru thodar kadhai" which became arunaway hit. after doing so many meaty roles in malayalam movies Sujatha, played the lead role and got a break.
    with love

    Hi everybody,

    Its a nice thread.

    So far, one and all discussed the movies derived from a novel, each one of them gets permission from novelist or nationalised stories.

    But I think few other novels were made as films without the knowledge of some novelists. Because, none from the film crew mentioning the writer's credit anywhere in such films or in any interviews as per my knowledge.

    The director could have not known story lines of those novels too, but should have noted their due credit whenever they came to know about it. This is my point of view.

    For example, RC mam's "Dheepa oli" @ " Urangaatha Kangal " was written in the year 1978 @ Ranimuthu. Fazil's "Poove Poochoodavaa" was filmed in 1985 ( tamil ). I don't know about malaiyalam version. But, as Nathiya only acted in both versions, that film too should have been filmed after 1984.

    Please, compare Dheepa oli and poove poochooda vaa.

    Compare "En kannin paarvaiyandro" and "Kolangal" starred by kushboo, Jayaram.


    And Thangar pachan's "onbathu Roobaai nottu" is a novel " Oru puliya marathin kathai" by " Sundara Ramasamy"

    There was a period, some serials in doordharshion tamil, based 2, 3 stories of RC mam's. "Oru kalyaanathin kathai', and few other stories were made into one serial. In that serial " Dharini" ( the girl who had acted as kamal's sister in " unnaal mudiyum thambi" ) acted in lead role. And S. P. shaila'a hubby played the male role.

    But I think RC mam was never been credited for these novels, whereas few writers and bloggers dishonestly called her writings as " malam" ( yes, malam, in tamil ). One of the blogger went too ahead, and discredit her writings to the core.

    ஹை,

    வணக்கம்.

    வடுவூர் கே. துரைசாமி ஐயங்கார் அவர்களின் நாவல் “மேனகா” வே முதல் முதலாக திரைப்படமாக்கப்பட்ட தமிழ் நாவல். அந்த காலத்தின் அனைத்து முன்னணி நடிகர்களும் நடித்தனர்.

    இவரின் “பாக்தாத் திருடன்” நாவலும், இன்னும் சில நாவல்களும் கூட படங்களாக எடுக்கப் பட்டிருக்கின்றன.

    துப்பறியும் கதாப்பாத்திரம் ஒன்றினை உருவாக்கிய முதல் தமிழ் நாவலாசிரியர் இவராகவே இருக்கக் கூடும். இவரது “திகம்பர சாமியார்”, துப்பறியும் சாம்புவிற்கு முன்னர் தமிழில் உலவிய பாராட்டப்பட்ட கதாப்பாத்திரம்.

    தேவன் அவர்களின் துப்பறியும் சாம்புவை மையமாக வைத்துத் திரைப்படங்கள் எடுக்கப்பட்டன என்பது மட்டுமே அறிவேன். படங்களின் பெயர் மறந்து போயிற்று. தகவல் தெரிந்தவர்கள் அளிக்கலாம்.

    நன்றி.
