    Evergreen classic

    This film ranks among my all-time favourites. Based on a novel of the same name by Kothamangalam Subbu, this incredible film has Sivaji playing (to perfection) a nadaswaram player, with the gorgeous Padmini as his lady love. Magnificent songs, perfect screenplay, phenomenal acting by Nagesh (as Vaithy, the crook) and Manorama (Jil Jil Ramamani), well-etched characters, and a feelgood ending make for a timeless gem. This belongs in any Tamil film lover's collection.
