R. Nataraja Mudaliar
Rangaswamy Nataraja Mudaliar (1885–1972), popularly known as the father of Tamil cinema, was a pioneer in the production of silent films. Starting his career as an automobile spare parts merchant, he started the "Indian Film Company Limited" in Madras. In 1917, Mudaliar made ''Keechaka Vadham'', South India's first silent film. Upon critical success of the film, he went on to produce films like ''Draupadhi Vastrapaharanam'' (1918), ''Lava Kusa'' (1919), ''Rukmini Satyabhama'' and ''Mayil Ravana''. After the death of his son in a fire accident in 1923, Mudaliar retired from films.
==Early life==
Mudaliar was born in Vellore, Madras Presidency, India in a wealthy family. His father was a successful trader. After completing his schooling, Mudaliar came to Madras (now Chennai) to set up his business as the city was the capital of the province.〔 Following that, he started a bicycle business named "Watson & Company" partnering with his cousin, S. M. Dharmalingam Mudaliar.〔 The company sold cycles at 25.〔 The business became successful as the partners acquired a foreign firm, "Romar Dan & Company" in 1911, that dealt with the import of American cars and automobile spare parts. Prior to that "Addison & Company" was the only company in Madras to sell American cars.〔 Mudaliar sold the same cars as 1,000 and became the first Indian to sell American cars.〔 Mudaliar had an early interest in photography this later evolved into "moving pictures".〔
