Bhagyaraj, the King of Screenplay
In the film Vidhi, Bhagyaraj's small role as a postman, though on screen for just a few minutes, won hearts with its comedy. Rudhra was another film that showed off his acting skills. A long bank robbery scene in it, filled with his smart and funny performance, earned him a lot of praise. His unique screenplay style also got attention across the Indian film industry. For example, the film Idhu Namma Aalu, written by Balakumaran, handled a serious social issue like caste differences with great humour, showing his mastery over screenwriting.
Bhagyaraj was a huge fan of the people's leader, M.G. Ramachandran. He showed his love for MGR in the film Avasara Police 100. He fulfilled his lifelong dream of sharing the screen with MGR by technically adding some unreleased scenes from an MGR film into his own. Through many films like Aararo Aariraro, Sundara Kaandam, and Oru Oorla Oru Rajakumari, Bhagyaraj proved his unique talent as both a storyteller and an actor.
