  Why not?
  Nadigavel M.R.Radha is one of my favourite actors..and he is the one and only in his kind.Raththakanner is one of the greatest movie in Tamil movie history.Still I watch this movie again and again..Still I couldn't found any other movie to match the 'Nakkal' dialouges in this movie by Great M.R.Radha

  Moreover, he would retain his mockery and satire even when he is in rags...that sort of a character consistency is wot made the movie live over the ages.
  
  He would say "annamalai dheebamnnu solreengalaey adhu ondi neruppu illayaa...?" and
  
  "naanaavadhu picchakaarannu parithaaba pattu enakku picchai poduvvaanga..un kitta enna irukku..." etc...
  
  kettalum buddhi pogadhu is the theme and its never been brought out to that efficacy in any other movie made till today...
  
  vivek is trying to pick up his style while he mocks at social aspects, especially his unique style of puffing his cig's smoke and mocking at wotever he feels like...
  
  great actor...!!!!!

  Tamil Film Industry has produced Three World class Actors. Shivaji, Kamal and M.R.Radha. They are like Shiva , Vishnu and Brahma in Tamil Film History. In any movie, in a particular scene When M.R.Radha is acting other actors cannot get a name, only M.R.Radha can excells in all the scenes. After M.R.Radha so many people imitated him. But nobody came near him. In the recent film "Run" actor Vivek made Ulta of "Ratha Kanner". There mother sentiment here Father sentiment. His best movies are 1. Ratha Kanneer 2.Baga Pirivinai 3. Balae Pandiya and lots and lots of other movies. His voice modulation is fantastic

  One of the greatest actors of all time. Some of his classic lines are in:
  
  Bale Pandiya: The way he tells Sivaji that you should not speak about politics in Bungalow
  
  Paave Manipu and Palum Pazham - The away he confronts Sivaji
  
  Kavalye Illatha Manitha- The way he lectures Chandrababu about poliricians
  
  and the ultimate the way he used to mock at MGR telling him that you are a thief acting like a good man
  
  Great fim personality. I will put him on par with Sivaji

  I love M R Radha. He was one of the greatest Social satirist(Person who mocks at the hypocrisy of society) I have seen. Oneof his memorable dialogues in this facet is
  
  " Steam-le avan avan car viduran, Kappal viduran neenga ennadana Kola puttu panni ulla vittukittu irrukeenge." Film- Baga Pirivinai

  M.R.Radha was an over rated actor. His expressions were artificial. His only speciality was his dailogue delivery. He was a specialist in hindu-baiting (DK style).
  
  He was intolerable in "ratha kanner" as he hammed & hammed throughout the film. He also had exaggerated mannerisms. He was however popular with the front benchers.

  A great personality and adorable periyar thinker.
  "Yaaru man, kaathula danger light maatikitu vaaruthu" at the red kaadukan & "annamalai theebam"... Naakal are very good.
  The best actor, I will always vote for.
