Edit: The film was quite slickly made for the period and was a super hit, watch it with subtitles sometime. It was also remade into Hindi as "Dayavan" with Vinod Khanna in the lead, but failed at the box office.

The Tamil version touched a chord with Mumbai Tamils (especially the poor of Dharavi) for whom Vardhabhai was a hero, and by extension it touched a chord with Tamils in TN too. But it touched no such chords with the Hindi audience.
