Tamil Movie Quiz - 2

1) A famous line uttered by Kamal in Pammal K. Sambandham is:

"Pazhamozhiyai anubavikkanum; aarayakkodathu".

Last weekend, I was watching an old movie in which, surprisingly, Rajini commented the same - but it was not on 'pazhamozhi'. When I was discussing at length about this movie to my close buddy, this analogy was invented. That was not a very successful movie, but was critically highly acclaimed. It was directed by a debutant. This comment by Rajini shows him as a sexist in that movie. Interestingly, it had Kamal as well.. Which movie is it?

2) One more qn. on assistant directorship. Probably the longest chain of directorship in Tamil, may be even in the entire Indian cinema..

'A' was a director under whom 'B' was an assistant director. The initial of 'A' is 'A' and the first letter of 'B' is actually B... :) . 'A' is not such a famous director as 'B' but still has directed big stars such as Kamal, Rajini and Vijayakanth (after 'B' left him). Many assistant directors of 'B' got very famous, but his most famous disciple was 'C', who had even acted in a few of B's earlier movies. 'C', until recently, was always the hero in his movies. 'D' was assistant to 'C', and the first movie of 'D' had a hero and heroine introduced in the same movie by B, along with 'D' himself.

In that super-hit movie, he introduced a new heroine, on whom he apparently had a crush. He made his second movie with a title conveying to the world indirectly that he is set to pair with her in real life too. Probably she didn't like that kind of arrogant behavior, so they parted ways. 'E' was assistant director to 'D' and he directed his first movie with the aforementioned actress as the heroine. He too named his second movie along the similar lines of second movie of 'D' but it was more of an open proposal. Soon, they got married.

'F' was assistant to 'E' and his first movie too was a run-away hit. He has made himself a name for directing soft and decent movies. He has provided new lease of life to many famous stars, when their careers were in crossroads. 'G' was assistant to 'F', and his movie, surprisingly was a thriller, with the heroine that 'F' had introduced in his first movie. 'G' has been highly successful with only countable number of flops. He is labeled as 'The Distributors' Director'. He tries to appear in at least a few frames in all his movies, and has acted in -ve and character roles as well. 'H' was assistant to 'G' and is known for quality movies. He is recently into acting as well. His first successful hit as a hero was a superb film. 'J' was assistant to 'H' and directed one of the most successful movies of last year with a totally unexpected actor as hero, and choosing a very different genre. His name has two parts, the first part the nickname of an upcoming, talented young hero and the second part, the name of a villain actor from Kerala. All the first movies of B to H were super-hits.

The offspring of B, C, D and E have all acted in movies.

Identify the directors B to J.. if you can guess 'A', it is a bonus as well..

3) Often in movies we see inspirational stories.. someone struggling to make it big, becoming hugely famous after getting his first chance. A few years ago, a movie, which was a Pongal release, had the story of a talented singer waiting for a breakthrough.. The movie is not all about him, though. It had a female protagonist. He is shown to become very famous with his very first song. I thought "Hmm.. in this competitive world, it would be an ideal case".. how I was proven wrong.. Less than 20 months later, the audio of a famous director's second movie was released, in which a song rendered by a newcomer was a huge hit. He went on to win national award for that song (and for another beautiful song for a movie released the month after his first movie). That was a real turning point in his career. I must add that he was famous in another elite league but his first song made him famous all over the state. Who is the singer in question?
