Soundtrack

Reception
In spite of good photography and music Tamizhariyum Perumal was not a commercial success. In 2011, film historian Randor Guy said it would be "remembered for the impressive sets, cinematography and pleasing music and being an early film of the later day icon and cult figure M.G. Ramachandran."[1]
gollark: You *can* just buy a desktop computer of some kind as a decent substitute, there's much more choice there, but not (unlike in phones) extra ethical™ computer parts.
gollark: Oh, so NOT supply chains but just "there aren't replacements for all things".
gollark: Do you mean "supply chains"?
gollark: Ideally, there would be some mechanism for people to say "no, I do not agree with companies doing X", and then to redirect capital™ to others, and people would use it. Unfortunately, this sort of exists (boycotts) but is impractical.
