Radha karthik love scene alaigal oivathillai tamil movie
Plot
The character played by Karthik belongs to a poor Hindu family in coastal Tamil Nadu. His mother, played by Kamala Kamesh, teaches music to Radha, who belongs to a relatively rich Christian family. The characters fall in love with each other but belong to different religions. The rest of the story is about how they deal with the society and vice versa.
The movie also conveys subtle hints of power-play in villages and class/caste/religious barriers that divide and even oppress those deemed lower in status. A rapist cleanly gets away with raping his maid and his victim and her husband, knowing his power and influence in the village realize that it was futile to confront him and quietly left without making a scene. Nothing more was said about the rape and the rapist even preached morality and Christian values in attempting to prevent his sister (Radha) from marrying the Hindu Boy Karthik.
Cast
Production
Karthik, son of actor Muthuraman and newcomer Radha made their acting debuts with this film. Suresh was initially approached for the lead role but he opted to do Paneerpushpangal. Thiagarajan, who worked as regional manager of Polydor made his acting debut with the film.
The script for the film was written by Manivannan, one of the assistants in the film. Manobala who was one of the assistants in the film recalled that director Bharathiraja asked assistants to make a set with swaying lotuses for the song ‘Ayiram Thamarai'. He and Manivannan ran from pillar to post to get it ready. They peeled off a plantain sheath and stuck lotus stems to it then both of them raised and swayed the lotus flowers from underwater. As no instruction was given, they remained in the water and finally when they came out, the crew had already left.

The music was composed by Ilaiyaraaja while he wrote the lyrics alongside Vairamuthu and Gangai Amaran. The songs from the film remains famous till date.
