The Agathiyan & Thalaivasal Vijay partnership
After 10 years apart, they came back together for Nenjathai Killadhe (2008). They didn't share a set between 1998 and 2008. They saved their best for last — Nenjathai Killadhe (7.5/10) came 12 years in.
The work is uneven: Nenjathai Killadhe (7.5) at one end, Gokulathil Seethai (3.3) at the other. From Kadhal Kottai (1996) to Nenjathai Killadhe (2008).
