Interesting facts

Mannavan Vanthaanadi is a 1975 Indian Tamil-language film, directed by P. Madhavan and written by Balamurugan. The film stars Sivaji Ganesan and Manjula. It was released on 2 August 1975. The film became a hit at the box-office, running for over 100 days in theatres.

Production

The film's title is derived from a song from Thiruvarutchelvar (1967), continuing director Madhavan's penchant for naming his films after songs. During the filming of a scene where Nambiar's character calls for his henchmen to tie up Nagesh's character, the actor improvised and called for "Madhava" and "Balamuruga", adapting the names of Madhavan and the writer Balamurugan.
