Do you know who was elected to the Madras Legislative Assembly from St Thomas

Do
you remember or know of a song which years after its release was screened in
all the theatres of Tamilnadu in 1980s.
You
need not search anywhere ! Just walk on the streets of Tamil Nadu – people
still remember him !! 38 years after he passed away
Months
after his death, there were many who believed that he was still alive – theory
was MGR American wrist watch (he wore the watch on right hand) would stop once
he is dead, but the sound of its ticking could be heard in his Samadhi. (the
theme gets a mention in the movie Vada Chennai too !) MGR still lives in the
hearts of people is a testament to his popularity and goodness.
