About the movie
The film, produced by Sandow M. M. A. Chinnappa Thevar under Devar Films, had musical score by K. V. Mahadevan. Thaikku Thalaimagan was almost darkened at its exit, on 13 January 1967, for Pongal of this year. Sandow M. M. A. Chinnappa Thevar transposes skillfully the first drama between two brothers, of The Bible: Cain and Abel. Sandow, the big Tamil storyteller, borrows the main weft to include its elements which make his trademark if characteristic of its film universe. The voice of MGR is particularly very beautiful in this movie. The songs were penned by Kannadasan. The last 15 minutes of this drama are very poignant! Thaikku Thalaimagan marks the twelfth MGR-Chinnappa Devar association.
