Soundtrack
Music was composed by K. V. Mahadevan.[3] After poet Suratha wrote the first para (Pallavi) of the song Vennilaa Kudai Pidikka differences cropped up between him and the composer. The poet refused to write the rest of the song even after any amount of coaxing by Udumalai Narayana Kavi who invited Suratha to write the song. Thereafter Udumalai Narayana Kavi wrote the completing lines of the song. However, credit was given to Suratha only in the film.[3]
Reception
Kalki wrote [clarification needed].[4] Film historian Randor Guy said the film performed "fairly well" at the box office.[1]
