MGR fans mostly publish special editions during release of MGR movies. MGR devotee Tirupur Ravichandran have forwarded a scanned letter of MGR’s epistle to his fans during the release of Nam Nadu.
The scanned letter is given below.
Click the above images to read.
The above image is the letter MGR replied for the special edition, I have given in a thumb nail, one might ask why I had cut into three pieces, because our blog images are being stolen and used extensively in facebook and other websites without giving any credit to our website even if I had watermarked the image. They have also mention their work is being stolen by someone. Why should we give them an easy job of copy pasting and doing basic photoshop work, let them spend more time and publish our work. For any MGR fans out there I will send this letter without watermark if they mail me.

MGR movie Ninaithathai Mudipavan was re-released previous week in Anna theater. We have given the images and some videos already. Sunday evening show was housefull and Rs.50 ticket sold at Rs.200 in black.
Below is the video clip showing Ranjith MGR behaviour in Office and Sundaram MGR behaviour in Office and his employees.
The video was captured by MGR Devotee Sathya and I have added the animation.
In the video the first MGR a capitalist and second one was socialist he easily portrayed the characters through his eyes, speech and body language. Along with the clip is the comic clip of Thengai Srinivasan, when he was given Rs.500 he forgets his work and how MGR makes him remember. A treat to watch again and again for that dialogue.
When Sundaram takes Ranjith place, he greets everybody and when the employees mentions he has changed, one tells that he is still in the influence of alcohol, look how people expressed their anger, this is just a movie character but their feelings towards MGR is hurt by that dialogue.

MGR dual action movie Ninaithathai Mudipavan was re-released in Anna theater, within one month after it was released in Mahalakshmi theater.
Below are some of the images captured by MGR Devotee Sathya to share in our MGR Blog.
Nearly thousand people came to see the movie.
Above is the housefull board display taken on Sunday evening show. Housefull of MGR movie on Sunday evening show is considered good but with capacity of 350 seats in Anna is not a great performance since the same movie was housefull in Mahalakshmi theater in its previous release which had a capacity of 900 plus seats. The great news is for us is the crowd that came to watch the movie and 2/3rd of them returned because of housefull.

Recently in Chennai Broadway Devar Films Thozhilali was re-released. And as usual MGR Devotee Sathya had captured some of the videos from this movie to share in our beloved Leader Puratchi Thalaivar MGR Blog.
Below is the video clip with animation.
In the above video you will see a song Andavan UIagathin and some conversation scenes. Watch how people react when M.N.Nambiyar complaints about MGR’s sincerity in his own way, the word ordinary person M.N.Nambiyar utters lasts only for one second but MGR Fans and ladies in particular resents and replies in their own style for one minute. This shows their hatred towards M.N.Nambiyar and as well as the love towards their Enga Veetu Pillai MGR.
Another scene where MGR was thanked by the passenger, MGR says that he is getting paid to do this job, there is no need for thanking. This kind of dialogue is only present in MGR movies.
I have to thank MGR Devotee Sathya for his painstaking work of providing MGR video clips to our Blog.
