Fifty years ago, Sivaji Ganesan’s film, Santhi , marked the end of a popular combination in Tamil cinema.
It was the last film in which Sivaji and M.R. Radha shared space on the silver screen.
This snippet was shared by T. Murali of Nadikar Thilakam Films Appreciation Association which organised a function on Sunday to the mark the 50{+t}{+h}year of Santhi .
The film that was to be released on April 10 in 1965 was delayed by 12 days as the makers wanted a ‘U’ certificate instead of an ‘A’.
Jayanthi Kannappan, daughter-in-law of A.L. Srinivasan who produced Santhi , brought the camera using which the film was shot
The programme was followed by the screening of the film.
The film’s cast included Sivaji, C.R. Vijayakumari, Devika and S.S. Rajendran, and was directed by Bhim Singh.
