Some days back, while changing the channels, I got to watch this movie CID shankar for some time.
I really enjoyed the movie. I have always enjoyed suspense movies. Especially the combination of Modern theatres and Jaishankar. Thennagathu Jamesbond Jaishankar. kaNNuku mai ellam irrundu chamatha investigate pannuvaar. Almost ella padathulayum oru club dance irukkum(Dancer peru Reeta). And just when she is about to tell the truth, current cut aagidum. And somebody will kill her.
Ippo ellam suspense movies yaen varadhu illai. Hindi movies like Murder, Zeher indha madhiri nalla suspense movies ellam varadhu. Tamizh la mattum yaen varala 
Am longing to watch a suspense thriller tamil movie.
P.S. I know what you are thinking. Anyone apart from Captain please. Captain will catch bin laden near singaperumal kovil. Thats hilarious. Not thrilling

My favorite suspense movie of yesteryears was AtheyKangal. I enjoy watching these B&W movies, esp on a weekday when I take an off feigning sickness !!!

My dad is a fan of such movies (Athey Kankal, Pudiya Paravai etc) but I never took interest to watch them. Yentha padam nu theriyala but your Thennagathu Bond will save Nagesh by inverting his room number from 6 to 9! Villain would go and knock no 9 which is actually 6. Yenna logic pa
Palingu nan oru maligai – really an amazing song! Athuvum padam per theriyala.

I think the film Jacky is referring to is ‘Vallavan Oruvan’. My favourite thriller (well more of a murder mystery than thriller) is Veena Balachandar’s ‘Andha Naal’.Script by Javar Seetharaman, no pace-ruining songs,arguably Sivaji’s best perfomance and a great watch even today.

how dare u say that about madurai singam, karuppu kalingar, thenpandi thalaivan (courtesy posters in madurai) captain.. (let me soon post a scene from the movie thayagam that left me speechless about captain’s intellect (speechless because i couldn’t anything else but laugh)

i think this is ultimate………
msp - you’re right ‘antha naal’ is the best…you can include ‘moondravathu kann’ and ‘puriyaatha puthir’

Does anybody remember a B&W suspense film where normal heroes acted as villains and normally villains were heroes - first half of the movie you spent wondering who was who since the tables were turned! Jaishankar was in it too as a villain. I can’t remember the name!

Visithra,
I think the movie you are saying is vallavanukku vallavan. There was no jaishankar in that. SA Asokan was the hero, and gemini ganesan was the villain. The famous song ‘Ora1000 paarvayile un paarvayai naan aRiven, un kaaladi osayile un kaadhalai naan aRiven’
Somu,
Adhe kangal. Yeah. Nice movie
on 29 Jul 2005 at 10:24 am # F e r r a r i
Jacky,
I think its from the movie naanaL. But wasnt the hero ravichandran?
Nithya,
Pudhiya paravai concept was good. But saroja devi was horrible. Ayyo aandava
And Murder has one of the best suspense themes
Wicked,
Oh yes. I have seen the movie twice

msp,
Andha naal is an amazing movie. Jaavar Seetharaman saying ‘Kolayum seivaaL pathini’ still rings in my ears
nagila(n),
Thayagama la dhaane avar thambi oomai? Andha padam dhaane adhu? Nice comedy movie

thanks ferrari,
for the dtls abt ‘Ora1000 paarvayile un paarvayai naan aRiven, un kaaladi osayile un kaadhalai naan aRiven’ song, i’ve been searching abt it 4 a long time

Vallavanukku Vallavan also had Savithri cameoing in the fun song :’Paaradi Kannae Konjam’. Lovely wordplay like :
‘Aasayai Paaradi Thangam - Ivar
Azhagile ‘Aa’na Singam !’
on 29 Jul 2005 at 11:24 am # Kavitha
msp,even i like that song
it goes like
paaradi kannae konjam

paithiyamae konjam nillu
vaithiyaridam poi sollu
adada idu enna kanna

Kavitha and msp,
It was a qawali type song
And it is ival indira logathu peNNaI listened to the song now. It is andhara logathu peNNa dhaan
One of the non devotional songs by seergazhi

@Kavitha..
Me too a big fan of the song “Or aayiram paarvaiyile” from Vallavan oruvan..:D
But listen to Rafi’s rendering of the original, “Sau baar janam leke”, U wouldnt listen to the tamil version again..:D

on 29 Jul 2005 at 9:26 pm # Jacky
I don’t remember seeing Ravichandran in that movie. May be Vallavan Oruvan as msp said.
on 31 Jul 2005 at 11:09 pm # Bala
I love suspensse movies.. but with actors like vijay, vijaykanth et al. doing masala movies and spoiling ppl taste, there is only a remote chance that movies like ‘athey kangal’ etc will hit the screens again.
Vikram / Surya eathavathu thriller padam panna nalla irukkum!!! Hope my dream comes true.. soooon…

Jaishankar is the greatest of actors, have you seen his thunivae thunai?

Hi all, I am looking for the name of a Jaishankar thriller (colour) which begins with Jaishankar arriving at a remote village railway station at nightand asks the station master for directions…
on 29 Sep 2006 at 10:15 am # bharath
I think captain Vijaykanth is an evergreen star in tamil cinema.and also his films are really nice,like captain prabakaran,ramana,sathriyan,pulan visaranai,oomai vizhigal etc…
