Nagarame Nanni is a 1967 Malayalam language film, written by M. T. Vasudevan Nair and directed by A. Vincent.[1] The film stars Prem Nazir, Usha Nandhini, Madhu and K. P. Ummer among others. The film tells the story of a family that migrates from a village to the city of Madras in search of a better life. The theme was about the lure of the city and how the dreams of villagers are shattered by its inexorable logic of greed. The plot is similar to the 1965 film The Conquerors of the Golden City, directed by Getin Gurtop and the 1964 film Birds of Exile (Gurbet Kuslari in Turkish) by Halit Refig.[2] K. Balachander's Tamil film Pattina Pravesham (1977) was plagiarised from all these three films.[2]

Film expert B. Vijayakumar of The Hindu described the film as "one of the best social movies produced in Malayalam."[2]

Box office

The film became a commercial success.[3]

gollark: Besides, your code doesn't check for important and totally relevant cases like `js` already being `Number.MAX_SAFE_INTEGER`.

gollark: You can't just add a number yourself. What if the code for incrementing numbers changes? What if someone finds a more optimal way or there's a security issue? You need to use the `increment-number` package.

gollark: Although I suppose you could always have MORE JS engines.

gollark: Your browser already has one, fool.
