Arasilangkumari (Tamil: அரசிளங்குமரி) is a Tamil language film starring M. G. Ramachandran, Padmini and Rajasulochana in the lead roles. The film, produced by M. Somasundaram under Jupiter Pictures banner, had musical score by G. Ramanathan and was released on 1 January 1961. A. S. A. Sami, who directed the major portion, had some differences with the hero and others. So he was replaced by editor-turned-director A. Kasilingam who completed the film. Padmini stole the film with her superb performance as the abandoned wife and her wonderful dialogue delivery. Rajasulochana as the princess and MGR’s love interest also created an impact though her role was somewhat limited. Despite the interesting storyline, successful adaptation of the Hollywood classic, pungent dialogue, melodious music and fine performances, the film did not fare well at the box office much to the disappointment of all concerned and ran for 90 days.

Synopsis

Arivazhagan (M.G. Ramachandran) and his sister Anbukarasi (Padmini). Anbukarasi falls in love with Vetrivelan (M.N. Nambiar), who is commander-in-chief of the royal army, but he tells Anbukarasi and Arivazhagan that he is just an ordinary citizen of the kingdom and marries Anbukarasi. Arivazhagan leaves on a mission after his sister’s marriage. After some time, Vetrivelan deserts his wife and child and returns to the palace. He starts plotting against the royal family. How his plans are set at nought by the hero and how his wife fights for him against her own brother form the rest of the film.

Maruthanaatu Ilavarasi is a well-woven story about a king (Veerappa) with two wives (one played by Saraswathi and the other does not appear in the movie!) and an evil-minded Minister (Chakrapani) whose sister is the younger queen. The two become pregnant and the evil genius persuades the king to believe that the senior queen had poisoned the junior queen out of sheer jealousy which the king tends to believe, but does not take any action. The frustrated Minister tries to eliminate the pregnant queen but she is saved by a courtier whom the Minister kills. The pregnant queen escapes many trials and gives birth to a son (MGR). He grows up and meets a young woman (Janaki) and her friend (Nagaratnam) and falls in love unaware that she is a princess. Their love grows and when he comes to know that she is a princess, he begins to distance himself from her. After many trials, the two come together and live happily.
