P.U.Chinnappa

Topic started by Sathiya Keerthi (@ synergy.nus.edu.sg) on Sat May 30 01:10:49 EDT 1998.
All times in EST +10:30 for IST.

Tamil Cinema's first Chapter consisted of actors
who also sang very well. The two great stars of
that chapter were MKTB and PU Chinnappa. In the
singing department MKTB was clearly the more popular
one among the masses. But, in acting, dialogues,
fights etc., PU Chinnappa was the better one. He
was probably the first to effectively do two, three,
and even ten roles in a single movie.

We have already collected lots of information
about MKTB, thanks to Manisekaran. Shall we do
the same for PU Chinnappa?

  Well i am not not much bothered about Gemini Ganeshan but i am real fan of Savithri even today also i go around most of the Indian Spice shops in Sydney for weekend & get her movie & feel of Savithri. Today i saw a movie called Dr.Chakravarti in telugu because i a telugu person.
  
  What a lovely actor although i am only 40 years till date i don't like any film star more than Savithri. I married late in life my mother used to ask me why haven't you married & escaping i told very frankly i am looking for a girl like Savithri's type of girl so that i feel of it.
  I saw one girl but my mother didn't agree because i am a Sri Vaishnav(Iyengar)where as that girl is a Pedda Kapu/Kamma i said alright
  & left married an MD from Bangalore good looking but i really feel i need a wife like Savatri what a beauty in her. Now i feel i will for my son who is around 12 years.
  
  Is it possible to put me on to Savithri's daughter who is a Doctor in Madras, i used
  to work in Madras as a Business Manager i
  tried at that time to get her details & feel
  of Savatri.My background is MBA in International Trade work as Sr.Consultant & my is a Doctor in Sydney.
  Best Regards/KN.Murali

  Whatever respect i got on her as the best heroin in South Indian movies etc..such an intellegent women ulimately married a ......of a worm in movie filed,after that i totally lost interest in her movies.
  
  Most of the heroin's does the same mistake that she married a guy for 3 times & ended her best career now he got his 6th wife officially unofficially too many.

  I feel Kongara Jaggyya would have been a correct husbad for her taste.They together acted plenty of movies & she was very comfortable with him while acting.If she would have married him she would have been alive & happy life.
