Synopsis
Thambi Thanga Kambi is a 1988 Indian Tamil-language action film directed by K. Shankar and produced by S. Ganesh.
The film stars Vijayakanth, Lakshmi, Ramya Krishnan, and Rekha, and serves as a remake of the 1986 Hindi film "Jaal".
Released on July 15, 1988, this was K. Shankar's first action film, marking a departure from his usual work in Hindu mythological genres.
The story follows Shankar, who lives with his struggling family including an ill mother and sister. He takes up driving an auto-rickshaw after being hired by a wealthy woman named Ganga, who knows about his family's difficulties as part of her plan.
The narrative then centers on how Shankar assists Ganga in resolving issues related to her family within the settings of Periya Durai and Jambulingam, with characters like Chithra and Uma also visiting their own families.
