Production

On 26 November 1935, The Hindu carried a news article about a nine-year-old girl Delhi-based girl named Shantha Devi who claimed that she remembered all the details about her past life in which she lived in the town of Mathura. There were similar news reports published by newspapers in Kerala and Rajasthan in 1939. Director C. V. Sridhar was attracted by these news reports, and developed a screenplay titled Nenjam Marappathillai based on the theme of reincarnation. Chitralaya Gopu was hired as associate dialogue writer, and Sridhar's brother C. V. Rajendran as associate director. The film was produced by M. S. Kasi Viswanathan under Manohar Pictures, and Kasi claimed credit for the story. Cinematography was handled by A. Vincent, and editing by N. M. Shankar. Shooting took place prominently in Kerala.[1] During the filming of a scene where Nambiar's character chases the hero and heroine via horse carriage, one of its wheels suddenly came off. Even though the driver panicked, Nambiar asked him to continue driving the carriage and as it overturned, jumped out, took aim and shot.[2] The final length of the film was {{convert|4472|metres|feet}}.[3]

The music was composed by the duo Viswanathan–Ramamoorthy, while the lyrics were written by Kannadasan assisted by his nephew Panchu Arunachalam.[4] The title song and "Azhagukkum Malarukkum" attained popularity.[5]

Release and reception

Nenjam Marappathillai was released on 2 August 1963.[6] Reviewing the film for Sport and Pastime, T. M. Ramachandran said, "Nenjam Marappathillai is one of those rare films which have the makings of a box-office hit without compromising realism or sacrificing good taste."[7] A reviewer for Conservative too praised the film, particularly the cinematography and cast performances.[8]

Legacy

Nenjam Marappathillai attained cult status in Tamil cinema.[9] Director Ameer Sultan named it one of his most favorite films and said, "Nenjam Marappadhillai not only breaks free from the formulaic screenplay, but director Sridhar does something revolutionary by introducing new faces in it. Recently I read in a paper that the film has been remade in Hindi. This is the power of Sridhar’s script".[10] Cinematographer P. C. Sreeram stated, "I still remember how terrified I was while returning home after watching Nenjam Marapathillai and Athey Kangal. Spooky themes were great entertainers".[11] M. N. Nambiar said that it was one of his favourite films he acted in.[12]
