Production

[edit | edit source]

The film began production as Perumaan The Rajnikanth. Initially, Rajinikanth approved the name of the film. However, the name was shortened to Perumaan upon release after Rajinikanth's spokesperson, V M Sudhakar, thought it was unacceptable for anybody to call him as higher than a deity.[1][2][3]

Soundtrack

The songs were composed by Luiji (2 songs) and Vikram Sarathy R.[4]

  • "Life Is Bimbilaaki Bilaapi" - Luiji, Rajesh Kanna
  • "Swapna Sundari" - Vikram Sarathy, Keerthana
  • "Om Om Siva" - Vikram Sarathy, Sricharan
  • "Hey Snehidhiye" - Nikhil Mathew[5]
  • "Vaanum Manum" - Rajesh Kanna
  • "My Sarah" - Luiji and Smruthi[5]

Reception

[edit | edit source]

The Times of India gave the film three out of five stars stating that "It is this tough story that Rajesh Kannan sets out to tackle, and to his credit, it must be said that he has done a decent job".[5] News 18 praised the story, but criticized the slow screenplay. The reviewer wrote that "Agreed that Rajesh Kannan has presented an original story. But the pace in which the movie moves is too slow, something which he cannot afford in a suspense thriller".[2]
