The A. P. Nagarajan & Sri Vijayalakshmi Pictures partnership
Remarkably even — every film rates between 7.5 and 8.6. Between 1964 and 1972, they barely worked apart — 5 films in 8 years. From Navarathri (1964) to Agathiyar (1972).
Agathiyar (1972, 7.5/10) is the underseen one in the catalogue. Thiruvilaiyadal is the one most viewers reach for.
