Adding to this recent trend, the usage of titles of old films have
come in vogue with a number of old film titles being registered at the
producer's council. Further to Polladhavan and Namnadu, and Selva's
Aayirathil Oruvan, there is a bevy of new films with old titles being
registered viz. Mullum Malarum, Saval, Pallandu Vazhga, Thee, Thillu
Mullu, Kaali, Idayakani, etc. An interesting observation is that most
of the titles have been either M G R's or super star's films. Reliable
sources in the industry reveal that there is a belief among film
makers that these titles of the popular stars are sure to bring in
success and hence the trend. This only goes on to reiterate the power
of these icons.
