Curiosità

Kalyana Parisu is a 1959 Indian Tamil-language romantic drama film written and directed by Sridhar. The film stars Gemini Ganesan and B. Saroja Devi while K. A. Thangavelu, Vijayakumari, M. Saroja, S. D. Subbulakshmi, A. Nageswara Rao and M. N. Nambiar play supporting roles. A triangular love story, it is about two close sisters whose lives turn upside down when they both fall in love with the same man. Out of respect, the younger sister decides to sacrifice her love, unknown to the elder sister.

Production

After the success of the Venus Pictures production Uthama Puthiran (1958), its screenwriter Sridhar was keen on creating the story for his next film. He thought of various stories, eventually finalising on a triangular love story where two sisters fall in love the same man, with one sister sacrificing her love for the other's sake; he believed this sacrifice would be a strength.

Film historian Film News Anandan said the other producers did not have much faith in Sridhar's directing skills. He also claimed to have been the only person who Sridhar narrated the climax to. T. A. Sadagoppan (later known as Chitralaya Gopu) a childhood friend of Sridhar, joined as an associate writer for the film, thereby making his cinematic debut.

B. Saroja Devi and Vijayakumari played the sisters Vasanthi and Geetha respectively, while Gemini Ganesan played the male lead Baskar. Rajasulochana was Sridhar's initial choice for Vijayakumari's character. Although Ganesan had contracted typhoid fever, Sridhar felt only he could do "justice to the role" and decided to wait for him to get better before casting him. K. A. Thangavelu and M. Saroja were signed for the comedy sequences.

The scene where Sampath lies to Malini about his profession was filmed in a single take. Sridhar, despite providing the required dialogues, asked Thangavelu to improvise on them so as to make the humour more spontaneous. Gopu has stated that Sampath was inspired by his school friend Venkatesh, "a compulsive liar." He described himself as the inspiration behind Mannar and Co, a faux company invented by Sampath.
