Synopsis
Ellame En Rasathan is a 1995 Indian Tamil-language drama film directed by Rajkiran and starring Rajkiran, Sangita, and Roopa Sree.
The film tells the story of Singarasu, who comes to a remote village with his daughter to look for her mother's murderer, Mookaiyan. As they settle in, the daughter falls in love with the village chief's son, while Mookaiyan follows them to kill the witness.
In the past, Singarasu was the gram panchayat president of another village, where he clashed with the other village's chief Ayya over his support for female infanticide. This event sets off a chain of events that lead to the present-day story.
The film was released on 24 April 1995 and emerged as a box-office hit. It was remade in Telugu as Soggadi Pellam (1996) and in Kannada as Marthanda (1998).
