Thiruvilaiyadal Puranam
The Thiruvilaiyadal Puranam is a collection of sixty-four 16th-century Shaivite devotional epic stories by Paranjothi Munivar. They describe the actions (and antics) of Shiva on Earth in a number of disguises to test his devotees.
Adaptations
The 1956 Tamil film Naan Petra Selvam includes a play within a film based on the story where the poet Nakkeerar confronts Shiva over an error in his poem, exaggerating his sensitivity to right and wrong.[3] The 1965 film Thiruvilaiyadal depicts four stories from the source material,[1] including the Nakkeerar episode.[3] A 64-episode TV series also titled Thiruvilaiyadal, created by Raadhika, premiered in 2008 and adapted all 64 stories of the Puranam.[4]
