Uma Kannadasan, who is not related to Kannadasan, composed the soundtrack and wrote the lyrics.[7]

Reception

[edit]

N. Krishnaswamy of The Indian Express opined that "the director Balasubbiah, though he flounders off and on, has kept the fare clean".[7] B. S. S. of Kalki criticised the film for not presenting a new story while noting that Uma Kannadasan's music sounds like Ilaiyaraaja's in places.[1] The film was a commercial failure.[2]
