MGR has entered during the shooting of a movie. Then everyone stood up, only Namiyar didn’t stand up. At that time, MGR’s Katupada director P. Neelakandan asked Nambiar, “Chinnavar is coming, why are you not standing up like this?” He believed, “Why should I stand up? He is an actor and I am an actor. That’s all” he said. Hearing this, MGR left smiling. It is significant that such an understanding existed between both of them.
