Thanks for your reply.

Yes, it is shocking to know that Uravadum Nenjam, IR's 3rd movie which has the excellent song 'Oru Naal...' is not available anywhere. Even the video of this song is not to be seen anywhere.

Thanks for your post.

Glad to know that you live in Malaysia and that too in the vicinity of Columbia Films shop.

To be exact, they charged me 18$ per VCD in addition to shipping charges (depending on the weight of the consignment) which came to approximately Rs. 1000/- per movie. I wanted to buy about 10 movies from them and so you can imagine, it would have put a big hole in my pocket.

I also enquired the rates for purchasing the movies directly from their shop, but I was informed that it would cost me the same with the exception of shipping charges, of course.

Looking forward to your reply.

Thanks,

Nishanth.

 Hi Xsharman,

Yes, it was VCD format only, excluding shipping charges, which, I was told, would be calculated based on the weight of the consignment.

Have you purchased any of the above mentioned films directly from their shop?

If so, could you share your experiences on the quality of the print, sound clarity etc.

Glad to know that you have ordered movies from Columbia and will be getting it shortly.

If possible, could you send me across Agal Vilakku & Karumbu Vil to me? I live in Chennai, India.

Regarding movies you have asked,

1. Sonnadhu Needhana - My friend who is based in America has this movie. He has promised to share it with me when he comes to India. I will pass it on to you.
2. Idhayathil Or Idam - Same as (1)
3. Uravadum Nenjam - The friend I mentioned above has a video casette of this movie, but he says it is in a bad shape and he is not able to convert it.
4. Nathiyai Thedi Vantha Kadal - Same as above.
5. Puthiya Adimaigal - This is an unreleased movie. The movie was censored but was never released. Only LP record was released.
6. Ninaipathu Ninaiverum - I don't think music for this movie is by I.R. Can you check?

If you need some other movies,just message me. I will try my best to get it fot you.


Hi Nishasiva

I'm glad too you replied. I can give the copies but as per my message, i would like to exchange with other films. Can we exchange once you get hold of the movies from your friend?

Hi. You are right. Ninaipathu Ninaiverum is not IR song. I was merely naming it to try to get a copy of the movie.

Anyone has Ilamai Kolam movie starred by Suman, Radhika? Thanks
