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." In his autobiography, MGR had written that for his role he was paid 300 rupees for the entire movie. ==References==
