Vasantha Maligai [SEP] Theatrical
A digitally restored version of "Vasantha Maligai" was released on 8 March 2013. The restoration was done by P. Srinivasan of Sai Ganesh Films at a cost of INR 10 million, consuming five months of work. M. Suganth of "The Times of India" rated the digital version 4.5 out of 5 stars saying, "To be frank, the opening 20 minutes are as choppy a ride as that experienced by the characters in the introductory scene." He continued, "But forget K V Mahadevan's songs, forget Krishnarao's dazzling sets and forget the leading man. This film still holds up so well – 40 years after its release – because of the writing and characterisation.
