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."
