Thekkankaattu Was Directed by Shashikumar ...The Story Is About Rich & Poor With Their Difficulties & Connectivity ...Script Is Well Written & Performed But A Year Later Released Mazhakkaaru Starring Madhu Was The Pretty Much Similar ...Every Thing In The Movie Is Similar ...Except The Climax Here We Have A Particular Villain In This Movie ...Which Makes It Different From Mazhakkaaru By P.N Menon...In The Acting Department We Have Madhu The Rich Fellow Falling For Poor Girl Sharadha Just Like Shobhana In Mazhakkaaru...Sharadha Was A Better Actor So No Comparison With New Comer Shobhana...Both Were Good ..Madhu Was As Usual In Both The Movies...The Music Of The Movie Is Composed By A.T Ummar ...Few Numbers Are Good Especially L.R Eeshwari's song "En Nottam Kaanaan" ...Music Of Mazhakkaaru Was Given By The Very Best G.Dhevarajan ..It Had Classic Songs Like Anasooye Priyamvadhe & Maninaagathirunaagam..So Comparatively Mazhakkaaru Had Better Songs... But Not To Forget Thekkankaattu Was Released First Ya It Was Not That Successful Like Mazhakkaaru But It Was A Great Attempt By The Director.. Overall A Fine Movie...If You Have Seen Mazhakkaaru You Can Skip ..Watch If You Wanna Know The Difference Between Both The Movies...:)
