What happens

Iru Sahodarargal (also spelled as Iru Sakodarargal; transl. Two Brothers) is a 1936 Indian Tamil-language drama film directed by Ellis R. Dungan. This was the second film for M. G. Ramachandran (later Chief Minister of Tamil Nadu) and Dungan. This film cemented the reputation of Dungan as the most successful Tamil film director of that period. It is one of the earliest Tamil films to be set in a contemporary social setting. No print of the film is known to survive, making it a lost film. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
