M. G. Chakrapani

Maruthur Gopalan Neelakandan M. G. Chakrapani stage name (13 January 1911 – 17 August 1986), commonly known as Eattan ("elder brother" in Malayalam), was an Indian actor and producer based in the Tamil film industry. He was the elder brother of actor-politician M. G. Ramachandran.

Early life Chakrapani was born in Vadavannur, Palakkad (Madras Presidency now Kerala), on 13 January 1911. His parents, Gopala Menon and Sathyabhama, named him Neelakantan, but this was soon changed to Chakrapani because of his father's religious beliefs. Soon after his birth, the family migrated to Ceylon (now Sri Lanka) where Chakrapani's two younger siblings (brother M. G. Ramachandran and a sister) were born. Gopala Menon worked as a magistrate in Kandy, until he suffered an early death. Chakrapani's sister also died while they were in Ceylon. 1939 Maya Machhindra 1939 Jothi 1942 Tamizhariyum Perumal 1944 Mahamaya Neelan 1946 Sri Murugan 1947 1000 Thalaivangi Apoorva Chinthamani 1948 Abhimanyu Balaraman 1948 Raja Mukthi Minister 1950 Ponmudi Tribal Chief 1950 Thigambara Samiar Magistrate Pattabhirama Pillai 1950 Maruthanad Elavarasee Minister 1950 Ithaya Geetham Minister 1951 Vanasundari 1952 Amarakavi 1952 En Thangai Rajendran's uncle 1952 Kalyani Doctor
