This is an amazing masterpiece not exactly a cult classic kinda film but beautifully shows how people lived proudly back then and it wouldn't bore us like other old movies we find outdated. The comedy track between legends goundamani and senthil is really funny and the songs the great Ilayaraja sir's golden songs.
