Marudhur Gopalan Ramachandran, fondly known as 'M.G. Ramachandran' and 'M.G.R.' He was India's greatest actor, producer and politician. Acting and politics were an important part of his career. In his youth, he was popular in several theater groups. He was deeply attached to Gandhi and his ideals, and in his youth actively involved himself in the Indian National Congress. Acting in more than 100 films, MG Ramachandran dominated the Tamil film industry for over thirty years. Later, he joined hands with the DMK political party. Despite gaining immense fame as a Tamil actor,

In the year 1977

MGR was engaged in election campaigning in a car named Usilambatti in Marai district.


He was campaigning in an open van in a crowded area when someone threw a paper packet at him.

As MGR was about to leave, the package fell into the hand of one of his bodyguards who was standing near him. Some people got very angry when they saw cow dung splashing down from it.
Someone threw cow dung on the leader. "Find him and catch him," someone shouted

When MGR came to know that it was cow dung, he immediately said on the mic, “No one should be angry. It was not cow dung that was thrown at me; "Flower package" he said


Immediately the people nearby said, “No! Look here… it is cow dung.” They pointed out the dung to him.

MGR replied, “So let's think of that dung as a flower. What is going to decrease" he said after listening to his generous speech


People, nothing else seems to work

They remained silent.

Mahakavi Subramania Bharatiyar was instilling thirst for freedom in people through his songs. Thus all the freedom fighters were associated with Bharatiyar

Knowing this, the British wanted to send a secret policeman to observe Bharatiyar's activities.


A secret bogus was prepared in the guise of a preacher. He wrote to Bharatiyar asking permission to meet him. Bhartiyar also agreed and sent him a letter in reply

One day the preacher went and met Bharatiyar. He immediately greeted him. Observing him and his activities, Bharatiyar realizes that he is not a real preacher: a police spy


Immediately he looked at the fake preacher and said, "Preachers don't greet anyone first, others greet the preacher first."

Bharatiyar, who was shocked to hear this, said, "If you can't find any other job, begging for food is better than working as a secret policeman for a white man."
Hearing this, the undercover policeman bowed his head in shame and left the place
