Plot

During his childhood, Ramu (MGR) escapes from killing during the massacre of his parents. He grows up, haunted by the memory of this horrible night, drawing indefatigably a white horse, resulting from the chain bracelet of the mysterious killer. Later, he finds the murderer some years later on his policeman's way with the help of Usthad Abdul Rahman (MGR), (an ex-owner of a cabaret), and settles the score with him.

Cast

Production

The film is a remake of Hindi film Zanjeer (1973). It was the only time, when the son of S. S. Vasan, boss of The Gemini Circuit, shows an MGR, in the skin of a violent, fashionable cop in the 70s and in the time-honored expression : "...in the unorthodox, fast and muscular methods". The film has adopted a style that does not differ from Poliziotteschi like Piedone lo sbirro, in 1973 or more seriously High Crime (La polizia incrimina, la legge assolve), also in 1973. The song "Konja Neram Ennai..." was intended at first for the movie Inaintha Kaikal(with MGR) which does not live finally in the daytime. The title of the movie was inspired by a song of the soundtrack of the success of the previous year, Ulagam Sutrum Valiban, another MGR film.

Release

The film was a blockbuster and ran more than 100 days.[3]

Soundtrack

The music was composed by M. S. Viswanathan.[4][5]
