Ilaya Ragam is a 1995 Indian Tamil-language romantic drama film directed by P. R. Devaraj, who previously directed Senthoora Poove (1988), his final film as director. The film stars newcomer Jothisankar and Sirisha. It was released on 1 December 1995.[1]
The music was composed by Ilaiyaraaja.[2] A critic wrote that "Ilayaraja comes out with two pleasing numbers in ‘Naan onru kettaal’ (Arunmozhi and Chitra) and ‘Unnai naan sernthirukka’ (Mano and Chitra)".[3]
D. S. Ramanujam of The Hindu wrote that "The undesirable effects ragging produces in higher educational institutions, mixed with a love story, forms the base for Pournami International's `Ilayaragam' where a tall newcomer Jothisankar, makes a fairly impressive debut".
