Veteran actress Saroja Devi attended a function at MGR Janaki Women's College, held to honor the 21st anniversary of the legendary MG Ramachandran. Accompanying her was actress Sulochana during this college function. Director of administration, Rajendran, Latha Rajendran, Chief of the college, Usha Krishnan, HOD of Tamil department, Agastin, and dean of Sathyabama University, Japeyaar were present amongst the students of the college.
Saroja Devi addressing the students said," MGR was born on 17th and my birthday falls on 7th. Our lucky numbers are the same and we were both born in the same month. When I entered this college campus which was once the popular production company Sathya Studios, I was moved to tears. I once enacted movies like 'Kalangari Vilakkam', 'Palum Pazhamum' and 'Padakotti' in this same location. I am standing before you in this status only because of my mentor MGR. He's the one who taught me to talk, to mingle and everything else."
"I learnt one crucial thing from him which is respect you parents at all times. Those people who respect and adore their parents will surely go places. I have never neglected by mother's words in my life. He never asked me to join politics or in the AIADMK as I wasn't allured by politics. MGR is the real hero of all times irrespective of him being alive or not. A birth or death should be like MGR's which I adore the most."
