If I'm not wrong, there was a Hindi version of Thiruda Thiruda called Chor Chor (I have the soundtrack to it) - was this movie ever released? I've never seen it around anywhere.

Ok - here's a list of Tamil movies (some) with mass appeal, I think. I hope Aingharan comes out w/ re-mastered DVDs of these movies:

All of Manirathnam's movies.
Devar Magan. - Virasaat in Hindi. The Kamal-Sivaji starrer is infinitely superior, IMHO.
Vikram.
Sathya.
Pesum Padam. (Pushpak).
Indiran Chandiran. (Mayor Saab in Hindi).
Raajaparvai.
Kadhalan (Quintessential Prabhudeva / Shanker / Rehman).
Kuruthipunal (Kamal's remake of Drohkaal).
Captain Prabhakaran.
Aasai.
Jeans.
Ullathai Alli Thaa.
Vaalee.
Nerukku Ner.
Mahanathi.
Kadhala Kadhala.
Vetri Vizha.
Aaha.
Kaadhal Kottai.
Kadamai Kanniyam Kattupaadu.
Apoorva Sagodarargal.
Michael Madana Kama Rajan.
Baasha.

Ones that may not have mass appeal/slightly older movies, but I would like to see:
Moondram Pirai.
Utharipookal.
Billa.
Sigappu Rojakkal.
Kalyanaraman.
16 Vayathinile.
Kakki Chattai.
Sakala Kala Vallavan.
Moonru Mugam.
Karagattakaran.
Rettai Vaal Kuruvi.
Varusham 16.
Nenjathai Killathe.
Mudhal Mariyathai.
Moodupani.

Okay - one Telugu movie that I hope Aingharan does justice to. The DVD out there is terrible:
Kshanam Kshanam (Telugu). If they can do a dual language track, that would be awesome (Tamil/Telugu)

And one Kannada movie that would be great:
Prema Loka. (Paruva Ragam in Tamil). Again - a dual soundtrack would be great. (This is a remake of Grease 2: great soundtrack).

The film was dubbed but there was no buyers out there and now is somewhere lying and rotting away in some garage (along with many films...)

Ayngaran are doing their best to get all of Mani Ratnam films. Thier bond is growing stronger ever since Ayngaran bought his produced film Dum Dum Dum, and have began to release some of his films on DVD. It will be only a matter of time when they bag his older movies.

I believe it would be smart for these DVD manufacturers to concentrate on film makers rather than hits when they are trying to garner the general market (audiences that dont speak the language that is).

In this context it is a terrific start that they have decided to get all of Mani Rathnam's older titles.....I await the day when they do a DVD of his 'PALLAVI, ANU PALLAVI'.....I really wish for everyone to be able to catch this movie....i cannot begin emphasising the story writing and telling capacities of Mani Rathnam, though he seemed to stray with some of his films later on where he seemed to delve more on form than content.

And in the same breath I also hope Ayangaran decide to bring to all audiences Ram Gopal Verma's Telugu movies as well....again I have seen dubbed versions of his originals and really would like to see the originals with GOOD subtitles.....Sunny can you convey this to your contacts at Ayangaran. Your gesture will be much appreciated....and PLEASE ask them hire someone who has a minimum grammatical sense to do their subtitling, some of which seems to have been done by a kindergartner !!!!

Spike tuff to choose. Its like comparing apples with oranges (Oh Behave Aryan I know what you are thinking :p )

Om Puri vs Kamal Hasan ... tuff to choose. I had the fortune of watching the Telugu (dubbed) version of 'Kuruthipunal'. It was excellent. I think Ashish Vidyarthi made a mark with this film !

IMO OM Puri & Govind Nihalani make a perfect match... (starting from Ardh Satya) !

Is this the one where Kamal plays the mentally ill guy?

Kurithipunal is a commercialised (though no songs) and pepped up version of Drohkaal with more action.
