When exploring the vast history of Indian cinema, few artistic partnerships have left as indelible a mark as the legendary pairing of Sridevi and Kamal Haasan. Together, they redefined on-screen romance, dramatic intensity, and acting excellence during the late 1970s and 1980s. Directed by visionary filmmakers like K. Balachander and Bharathiraja, their collaborations serve as a masterclass in performance art.

The film features perhaps the most heartbreaking climax in cinema history. Sridevi’s performance as the childlike Viji is incredibly nuanced, avoiding the trap of caricature. Kamal Haasan’s performance earned him his first National Film Award. The Hindi remake, Sadma , is equally legendary. 2. 16 Vayathinile (1977)
