Raja Desingu - Production

Production

Gingee or Senji has a long history since 200 BC and over the years had been invaled and ruled by many dominant kingdoms. However, the one name that invariably crops up at any mention of Senji is that of Raja Desingu, who ruled the kingdom, albeit for a short period, with sagacity and valour in the 18th century. Over the years, the saga of Raja Desingu has been become an enduring and endearing part of Tamil folklore. Countless ballads, stories, puppet shows, dance, stage and street shows have been inspired by the tragic tale of this brave hero of Senji.

Adapted as a movie in 1936 by Rajeswari Talkies and was directed by Raja Chandrasekhar. The lead actors were T. K. Sundarappa, V. S. Mani, M. Lakshmi and K. R. Saradambal. The lyrics by Madurai Baskaradoss and music by M. Baluswami.

Famous quotes containing the word production:

    Perestroika basically is creating material incentives for the individual. Some of the comrades deny that, but I can’t see it any other way. In that sense human nature kinda goes backwards. It’s a step backwards. You have to realize the people weren’t quite ready for a socialist production system.
    Gus Hall (b. 1910)

    The society based on production is only productive, not creative.
    Albert Camus (1913–1960)

    It is part of the educator’s responsibility to see equally to two things: First, that the problem grows out of the conditions of the experience being had in the present, and that it is within the range of the capacity of students; and, secondly, that it is such that it arouses in the learner an active quest for information and for production of new ideas. The new facts and new ideas thus obtained become the ground for further experiences in which new problems are presented.
    John Dewey (1859–1952)
