The greatest actor of our times, `Nadigar Thilagam\u2019 Sivaji Ganesan, the thespian, passed away on this sorrowful day. Millions and millions have paid their homage; and leaders of all political parties have paid their homage. <\/p>\n<p>Sivaji Ganesan when he played the role of Chattrapati Sivaji in a play, it was Thanthai Periyar, the greatest champion of social justice, who conferred the title `Sivaji\u2019. He could excel all the Hollywood actors. Arignar Anna, founder and late lamented leader, once gave a fitting description \u2013 Marlon Brando, if he tries his best, he could act like Sivaji Ganesan. He had played the roles of all the heroes of our freedom struggle. He is a versatile personality. He presented himself in the celluloid field for 50 years. There is no one equal to him. Therefore, in the Afro-Asian film Festival, he was conferred the highest title by Nazer. The French Government conferred `Chevalier\u2019 on him. India also conferred on him Padma Sri and Padma Bhushan.\n<\/p>\n<p>Sir, it is high time, the Government of India should confer the highest title `Bharat Ratna\u2019 posthumously on Sivaji Ganesan. I would seek the support of the Members belonging to all political parties to this demand. I would also request the hon. Parliamentary Affairs Minister to convey the requests of the Tamilians of the State to the Prime Minister so that our wishes would be fulfilled. \u2026 (Interruptions)\n<\/p>\n<p><a class=\"marker_ref\" href=\"\/search\/?formInput=%20%0A%0ASHRI%20K.%20YERRANNAIDU%20\"> <\/p>\n<p><a class=\"marker_ref\" href=\"\/search\/?formInput=SHRI%20K.%20YERRANNAIDU%20\">SHRI K.

It was a great loss to the entire people of Tamil Nadu and to the entire cine field.
