Cast
Production
The film was launched at AVM Studios on 28 October 2009.
Soundtrack
Soundtrack was composed by Vidyasagar. Behindwoods wrote "Vidyasagar strictly adheres to the theme and tone of this rural story. But he also weaves in his creativity here and there. High on ‘native touch’, this album surprisingly dips a little where melody is concerned".
Release and reception
The film was released on 19 November 2010 alongside Nagaram Marupakkam and Mandhira Punnagai.
The Hindu wrote "Even a slight slip could have made Magizhchi (U) an extension of a weepy Tamil soap. But V. Gowthaman's direction keeps the narration on track in this family drama set in 1989. Neela. Padmanabhan's ‘Thalaimuraigal' has been transformed into a fairly neat film". Behindwoods wrote "Magizhchi is a well made film about family relationships and social issues. However, it has its innate limitations in terms of being an entertainer. To the team’s credit, the movie has never aspired to be an entertainer that is out of the scope, the story permits. If you are the sentimental type whose idea of a village based film is not just ‘sickles and sevals’, then Magizhchi will make you happy". New Indian Express wrote "Appreciable is its ending, which is warm and positive. But this film could have been made in a way more appealing to the audience".
