Release and reception

Mappillai Sir was released on 12 August 1988.[2] NKS of The Indian Express wrote, "The Maappillai Saar objective is the taming of the arrogant Jayanthi [...] The taming of the shrew line having exhausted itself midway, the film occupies itself with an assortment of cooked up conflicts".[1]

gollark: This is not accurate.
gollark: > The aesthetic commonly features nostalgic characters and properties, usually popular in the early 2000s or '90s (ex. Hello Kitty, Care Bears, or Furbies). Lighting plays a huge aspect in weirdcore, for example, a bright and happy seeming place with a strange, uncomforting, undertone, or a slightly darkened place, representing memories. Weirdcore has broad overlap with Old Web, Kidcore, and Nostalgiacore as it often uses the same nostalgic motifs, just in a bizarre way. Weirdcore also uses low-quality images (Dithered, and in some cases old camcorder effects) to give the viewer a feeling of early 2000s photography.
