Tamil Nadu Chief Minister J Jayalalitha, who had starred with Sivaji in such movie hits as Savaale Samali, Sumathi en Sundari and Engirintho Vandal, expressed grief at hisÄeath, describing it as an irreparable loss to Tamil cinema, and extended her condolences to his family. "Sivaji Ganesan introduced a revolutionary phase in Tamil cinema," Karunanidhi said on hearing about the departure of his "dear friend". The Karunanidhi-Ganesan duo broke this monotony and went on to produce such all-time classics as Manohara and Raja-Rani, where the upcoming star is believed to have delivered a poetic piece of dialogue extending up to five minutes, with the correct diction and intonation, after hearing it just once. The films themselves were mostly mythological or historical, with contemporary social issues almost non-existent as themes. Till then, Tamil films, the craze of the southern peninsula, were publicised for the 55 song sequences they portrayed. The sharp, powerful dialogues running into reams and reams of pages and conveying strong social messages, delivered by a smart actor with 'chinky' eyes, were very different from the song-and-dance sequences that had been the staple of Tamil cinema from the beginning.
