Whether the film was inspired by the real life affair between Sreevidya and Kamal Haasan, we don't know. But Thirakkadha had style.

Prithviraj played Akbar, a young director, in search of his next subject. He decides to look at the tragic life of yesteryear heroine, Malavika, who had a torrid but tragic affair with reigning superstar Ajaychandran. Akbar finds Malavika in a secluded room, away from the arc lights, fighting for her life from cancer.

Thirakkadha had a definite charm and attracted audiences to some extent. Hats off to the director Ranjith also, for getting a scintillating performance from Priyamani.
