Parattai Engira Azhagu Sundaram (transl. Azhagu Sundaram alias Parattai) is a 2007 Indian Tamil-language crime action film directed by Suresh Krissna. The film stars Dhanush, Archana, and Meera Jasmine. A remake of the 2005 Kannada film Jogi, it revolves around a woman who comes to the city from her village in search of her presumably lost son. The film was released on 27 April 2007 and unlike its original version was a box-office failure. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
