Pasumpon Muthuramalinga Thevar is one of our lesser-known freedom fighters. Though he was born with a silver spoon in hs mouth, the noble man gave away everything to the people and fought for the country’s independence.
A man who has not been given due credit, Thevar also worked shoulder-to-shoulder with Netaji Subash Chandra Bose to free the country from British despots. To bring to light the noble deeds of this great man, Papillon Creations, in association with Ashok Reddy Prime Focus Animations, is coming out with an animation film on Thevar’s life titled Pasumpon Thevar Varalaru.
Abraham Lincoln, who has worked as journalist for many years with leading Tamil dailies, is directing the film apart from having written the script. The director has researched for months on Thevar to portray the great man in an authentic manner.
The film, which runs for 1 hour and 15 minutes, has three songs set to tune by Vijay Antony. Yugabharathy has written the lyrics. National Award winning character artiste ‘Vagai’ Chandrasekhar has given the voice-over for Thevar.
