Remembering the king of satire!

Jul 31, 2014

Manivannan Rajagopal's stint with Bharathiraja in the early 80's as the story/ dialogue writer and some successful variety of combinations with his beloved friend Sathyaraj has created timeless genre-specific master pieces in Tamil cinema.

Actor/director Manivannan with his trademark beard has been associated with more than 400 films with memorable performances as villain, comedian, supporting roles and has exactly directed 50 films. The veteran was a specialist with love stories, political satires and edge of the seat thrillers.

Today, we at Behindwoods take the time to remember one of the most versatile actor -story tellers the industry ever saw, who was born in this very same day in 1953.
