Any body have a movie copy of CHOE's all time classic Mohammed Bin Tuglaque?
This was banned in India in the late 70's for its intense criticism of the political system in India.

  Its a great movie which would explain the trend of any political era in India. The sattire is really enjoyable although its a shame to come to terms with such state of affairs in our country.

  Persons like Karunanidhi, Veeramani, Ramadoss etc.....they dont like Cho....
  
  According to them he is a liar and impartial....
  
  Is it true?
  
  
• From: F e r r a r i (@ 192.138.110.8) on: Thu Nov 18 06:39:13 EST 2004
  
  Not at all
  1. Cho has a terrific memory power. He remembers what karunanidhi said in 1970 as well
  2. He doesnt change sides like what these people do
  3. He doesnt suffer from selective amnesia
  4. He talkes sense and there is logic in everything he says
  
  No wonder people like Karunanidhi, Veeramani, Ramdoss etc feel uncomfortable with him

  Unmaye un vilai enna, judgement reserverved are also great... I have the drama in audio cassette..
  
  E-vii, I remember Mr.Sampath.. It's very hard to get... There were 2 cho' TV serials during the late 80's on doordharshan TV.. one was I think saraswathi sabatham and the other was some '...colony'..or something.. They were too hillarious during that time... I would pay anything to get them if anybody have them on tape..
  
  Ferrari is right.. Cho is an intelligent and unbiased critic and there is logic in everything he says.. Besides he was a great comedian too... watch his old movies like bommalattam, thangapadhakkam, paar magale paar, aayiram poi, thaen mazhai etc..

• From: Babaji (@ 194.223.244.7) on: Thu Nov 18 11:11:13 EST 2004
  
  Ferrari,
  
  No it was not a joke,but a genuine question. I thought Choe directed it or Produced it.
  
  I was not around during the eraly 70's till mid 70's you know :)
  
  
• From: F e r r a r i (@ 210.210.75.110) on: Thu Nov 18 11:41:28 EST 2004

  I happened to watch Muhammad Bin Tughlaq on stage recently. Viveka fine arts were celebrating their golden jubilee and enacted a series of his old plays at Naradha Gana Sabha. Got to watch Madras By Night and Muhammad Bin Tughlaq. The latter is a true classic. The very fact that all that wat he said was applicable to the politically scenario then and is applicable now makes it so brilliant. Cho gave a speech during the interval, thanking the politicians for making his old play relevant in the present scenario too :-)
  
  Somehow i never thought of getting a copy of this! Just struck me!! :-)

  Mouli recently released his Flight No.142 on DVD.. Is this avaiable in the market yet? Has anybody watched it.. It's not yet available in stores in Toronto. I just loved this drama when it came on doordharshan many years ago..
  
  
• From: C~P (@ 61.95.159.12) on: Sat Nov 20 21:17:23 EST 2004
  
  Cho,
  Flight No.172 CDs are priced at Rs.199. The picture quality is very good. The audio kinda has a buzz at times but nothing to disrupt the dialogues.
  
  Check out http://kalakendra.com
  Probably u can get it shipped.
  
  
• From: C~P (@ 61.95.159.12) on: Sat Nov 20 21:18:51 EST 2004
  
  and yeah... I wanted to ask about Kaathaadi's Aiyya Amma Amma. Got just the MP3s from mohankumars. That too poor audio quality. Anyboady has it? is it available in the market?
  
  
• From: cho (@ 209.47.143.226) on: Sun Nov 21 00:53:11 EST 2004
  
  Thanks for the link C~P..I guess I can buy it online.
  
  I have the ayya amma ammamma in Cassette. It's available in T.Nagar audio shops. But as you know it's editted for just 60 minutes. It's 2 hours drama and I don't think thats avaiable in the market.

  Now that we are discussing Cho, I'd like to know if someone can post Cho's 'Saathiram Sonnathillai' drama! This was a play that I remember listening and enjoying while I was in Srirangam in the 80s, on radio. Been trying to find a tape ever since.
  
  Could anybody help?
  
  
• From: Karthik S (@ 219.65.148.35) on: Tue Nov 23 08:57:34 EST 2004
  
  Did I say post? Ouch! I'd be happy if someone just told me if its available somewhere in Tamil Nadu...so that I can get it through some folks I know there.
  
  
• From: Karthik S (@ 164.164.82.29) on: Wed Nov 24 04:38:07 EST 2004
  
  On 2nd thoughts, I think the title was 'Saathirangal Sonnadhillai'!
