About Kannan En Kadhalan
Kannan is the adopted son of a retired Captain and Sundaram is the biological son. Mallika is the niece of this rich man, who is engaged, at birth to Sundaram. Mallika is secretly in love with Kannan. Malathi lost her father in an accident; she now lives with the widow as her adopted daughter.
Directed by P. Neelakantan, Kannan En Kadhalan leans on a strong ensemble — M. G. Ramachandran, J. Jayalalithaa, R. Muthuraman — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about fantasy titles of 1968.
