Page 4 By RANDOR GUY Tamil Cinema Music 21 Soon after the success of Bhama Vijayam, GNB, much to his shock and surprise. became a victim of prejudice against cinema that prevailed in that period. He was invited to sing at a festival in Thanjavur but accompanists like the violin and mridangam players refused to play with him because he was only a film actor and not a pure musician! Several senior musicians were unwilling to attend the concert until the brilliant performance of his raga alapana brought them all rushing inside to savor his soul-filling music! Such was the attitudes of society in the early 1930s in the Madras province. GNB played Narada again in Sathi Anasuya (1937), produced by the Coimbatore-based Premier Cinetone and directed by Frem Sethna. GNB got top billing in the credits of the movie. (In a minor role as comedian appeared the later day star and brilliant actor, T. S. Balaiah.) The film had 37 songs with GNB rendering nine songs in ragas Kamas, Thilang, Bheemplas, Shanmughapriya, Behag, Kedaaram, Kambodhi, Kapi, and Neelambari. The music composer was Vidwan Govindarajulu and lyrics were by L. Nanjappa Chettiar. The film did not fare well and few remember it today. GNB s next film was the Indian classic and box office hit, Ellis R. Dungan s Sakunthalai (1940) in which he played the hero, King Dushyantha of Hastinapura. The heroine was another legend, M.S. Subbulakshmi. In this musical GNB sang only three songs and a couple of duets with MS. The duets Premayil Yaavum and Mana Mohanaanga Anangey..., issued as gramophone records, became popular. Regretfully no discs were cut of GNB s solo songs mainly due to prejudice and professional envy and such reasons. However the viruttham in Kambodhi raga, rendered by GNB, electrified moviegoers. According to GNB s biographers T. S. Vedagiri, K. S. Muthuraman and K. S. Mahadevan, the noted nagaswaram expert Veerusami Pillai saw Sakunthalai many times just to listen the GNB-Kambodhi. He would walk in before the piece and walk out after the song sequence was over! (Maharajapuram Santhanam, a good pal of this writer told him that GNB s rendering of Kambodhi inspired him to take to music seriously.) Many moviegoers and critics feel to this day that the unlimited musical talents of GNB were not properly exploited in Sakunthalai. The fact that MS and her husband T. Sathasivam were the producers did not help GNB! After a lapse of six years GNB acted in a couple of films which, sadly, few remember today. One of them was Rukmangadhan (1946).Produced and directed by P. S. V. Iyer, the film had music composed by Papanasam Sivan and G. Ramanathan. Out of the 17 songs in the movie, GNB sang five in Asaveri, Sindhu Bhairavi, Shanmughapriya, Navarasa Kannada and Saranga Malhar. The role of Naradar was played by the noted singer-actress of her day P. A. Periyanayaki. But the film sank without trace. GNB s final film Udayanan Vasavadatta has an interesting back story. Produced by RM. Ramanathan Chettiar of Newtone Studios and directed by T. R. Raghunath, the film was initially launched with fanfare featuring the legendary superstar M. K. Thyagaraja Bhagavathar as hero and noted singeractress Vasundhara Devi (mother of Vyjayanthimala) as heroine. While the shooting was in progress at Newtone Studios, Bhagavathar was arrested in connection with the sensational Lakshmikantham Murder Case. On account of his imprisonment, production ground to a halt and GNB was brought in as substitute for Bhagavathar. The arrest of Bhagavathar (considered as demo-god in his heydays), the sensational trial that rocked South India and beyond the high seas, the life imprisonment awarded to Bhagavathar, all these proved highly traumatic for the producers. Somehow they plodded on and completed the film with little involvement and released it. But it bombed at the box office. (To be continued) Sai bhajan programs in T.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR Abandoned car misused Sir, A car which looks abandoned has been parked on the margin of the service road of K. R. Temple Tank on Ellaiamman Koil Street, West Mambalam. It is being used by miscreants during night for drinking and other anti-social activities. Will the Traffic Police take steps to remove the vehicle? R. Balachandran, West Mambalam Abandoned auto/debris block margin of Padmanabhan Street Sir, Big mounds of debris and garbage are occupying the margin of Padmanabhan Street (East), T. Nagar for several weeks. A condemned autorickshaw has been lying there for several months. Anti-social elements sit inside the rickshaw at night to consume liquor and throw the empty bottles around. I appeal to Corporation officials to take immediate action to remove the debris and the auto from the spot. Sivasailam Street and Padmanabhan Street (East) Residents Welfare Exnora, T. Nagar Frequent power failure in one phase in Raju Street Sir, We, the residents of Raju Street, West Mambalam, are facing frequent power failure in one EB phase connection for the past month. It takes 4 to 6 hours to restore the phase after the complaint is lodged with the EB authorities. It is causing hardship to residents who have only one phase or to those who do not have changeover facility. We appeal to the EB authorities to find a permanent solution to the problem immediately. R. Chandrasekaran, 15, Raju Street, West Mambalam No Aadhaar card, no LPG subsidy from Oct. 1 Sir, As per the directive issued to oil companies by the Ministry of Petroleum, LPG subsidy will be credited to the respective consumer account only if it is linked to Aadhaar Card from July 1. For consumers who are yet to link the details, the subsidy from July 1 supplies will be parked till Sept. 30 after which it will lapse. In effect, the consumers have been given a grace time till Sept. 30 to submit their Aadhaar card details to the bank for linking to their account. At the time of introducing the DBTL scheme, the Centre stated that government subsidies will be made available even to those who do not have the Aadhaar card. When the scheme is being implemented without any hitch, the sudden U-turn is bound to affect consumers who are yet to obtain Aadhaar cards. Further, in the light of the Supreme Court order that the Aadhaar card should not be made mandatory for availing government subsidies, is the directive given to oil companies valid? The oil companies are coming out with various measures to prod the consumers to give up the LPG subsidy. Is the current circular another such effort? V. S. Jayaraman, 31, Motilal Street, T. Nagar EB junction boxes in unsafe condition Sir, The EB junction boxes kept in an enclosure in arterial Anna Main Road, K. K. Nagar are unsafe. The fence around the junction boxes has collapsed. Passersby have converted the surroundings into an open urinal. While one box has no door, the doors of a couple of others are open. Live cables interconnecting the junction boxes are lying exposed. They pose a grave danger to unwary pedestrians and persons who urinate in the spot. I request the TNEB officials to close all the junction boxes and reconstruct the fence. S. Sridharan, Sowbhagya Colony, Anna Main Road, K. K. Nagar, Ph: 98408 73447
