| What was his last film? The one I think the last was Needhi. He looked terrible in the movie...look older than a man in forties. Alcohol and drug abuse can really ravage a man's look.
Do share with us the incidents from the book, Joe. You are already doing a fantastic job in MGR and NT threads. Its difficult to get those books here in Malaysia. |

| Selva,
You are right .Many comedy artist had opposite side of real life. Chandra babu did try to produce a movie named 'Maadi Veettu ezhai' with MGR as hero .Chandrababu had to loose all his properties on this because MGR didn't cooperate with him and finally bankrupt .Finally the movie also dropped .Later sivaji acted in a movie with same title ,but has nothing to do with chandrababu's movie except the title. I will give some interset incidents happened in Chandra babu's life. |

| All of us know 'Sabash Meena' is one of the best comedy movies and Chandra babu acted with Nadigar thilagam and Chandra babu acted in dual roles.
When the producer first narrated this story to NT ,he asked NT's opnion on who will be suitable for that important character ..NT told " Chandra babu will be most suitable "..At the time Chandrababu is also in peak .He is known for his frankness .He never praised anybody and he just call anybody as Mr..so and so (even MGR) ..The producer went to chandra babu and narrated the story ..After that Chandra babu asked "who is the hero?" .The producer replied "Sivaji ganesan" ..Chandra babu replied "Oh! Ganesan .He is good actor..How much you give me for this movie?" .The producer asked "How much you expect?" .Chadrababu asked "How much offered to sivaji?" .Producer mentioned " Oru Ladcham" ..Then chandrababu said " Ok.then Give me one rupee more ..Oru ladsham oru rupaa" ..The producer stunned ..He went to sivaji and told everything ..Sivaji said " Avan kekkuratha koduthudunga ..Intha character-kku avan thaan oththu varuvaan .avanukku nalla scope irukku ithula..avana potta thaan nalla varum" .Finally the producer agreed... How great nadigar thilagam is! |
