and
the agent Vaithi are unforgettable negative shades in
human personality. Nagesh as Vaithi brought a new dimension
to the comic villain. His unique body language and ethnicity
in character were a hit with the audience.
The obstacles which
the lovers face are both in the form of circumstances
and personalities. The misunderstandings between the
lovers and the reconciliation attempts by the go-between,
Jil Jil Ramamani played by the effervescent Manorama
added suspense and an air of expectation. Her playing
the nadaswaram and the folksy dance number are still
memorable.
The wonderful lyrics by Kannadasan,
especially the haunting Nalandana and the top-of-the-drawer
music by MSV and Ramamurthy were great plus points for
the film. Story by Kothamangalam Subbu and Screenplay
and direction by A.P. Nagarajan.
Watch it whenever you can!
