Very sorry to hear Actor, Director, Producer Bhagyaraj has passed away. Our whole family loved all his movies. To name a few Mundhanai Mudichu, Andha 7 Naatkal, etc etc.
My wife and I had an opportunity to meet him for just 10 seconds. It was hilarious. He and his wife was visiting San Francisco Bay Area. He stayed in a rich couple’s house. They gave a reception/party for him. We happened to be friends of that rich couple.
We were also invited. I was talking to my wife. Bhagyaraj was talking to his friends a few feet away from us. We never knew while talking to his friends he was also listening to our conversation.
I was telling my wife: “What was the movie he acted in which the thrilling climax was shot in a train from Ooty to Mettupalayam. I loved the movie but unable to remember the title”. Before my wife could reply, Bhagyaraj who was standing a few feet away and talking to his friends leaned back and told us: Vidiyum Varai Kaathiru and went back to talk to his friends.
Our whole family loved his acting.
May he rest in peace.
The sudden passing away of K Bhagyaraj, a celebrated actor, film director, producer and screenplay writer, has left the Tamil Film industry vastly poor. A highly popular screenplay writer, he stood tall among the fraternity in the industry and etched an unforgettable name and fame for himself. Heartfelt condolences to the bereaved family. May his soul. rest in peace.
ReplyDeleteMay the soul of K Bhagyaraj RIP.
ReplyDeleteI am able to recollect only the Amitabh Bachchan starrer ' Aakhri Raasta ' being directed by him. I don't remember any of his Tamil movies.
