Avargal is a 1977 Tamil film made by K. Balachander starring Sujatha, Kamal Hassan and Rajinikanth. The film had a reputation
of being one of most sensitive movies on women’s lib. The same director later remade it into the Telugu film Idi Katha Kaadu
(1979) with Kamal Hassan repeating his role. Hassan is supposed to have learnt the art of ventriloquism for this movie in
order to portray his character perfectly.
