Production

Following the release of Satrumun Kidaitha Thagaval in January 2009, Kanal Kannan met the media to announce his second acting project titled Sankarankovil in February 2009. He announced that Nassar and Lal would star in the film, set in the town of Sankarankovil.[2] Debutant Rupika Ramnath was signed on to play the lead role in the film.[3] The film's soundtrack was composed by Rajni, with newcomer Vivek working on the film's score.[4] The film's audio release event was attended by industry personalities including Vijay, Jayam Ravi and AR Murugadoss among others.[5][6]

Reception

The film was released on 12 August 2011.[7] A reviewer from Dina Malar gave the film a negative review, criticising the script.[8] Rohit Ramachandran of Nowrunning.com wrote "Sankaran Kovil squeezes all the life out of you, suspends you by your eyelids and leaves you to hang dry." and gave the film half a star out of five.[9] In contrast, a reviewer from FridayMoviez.com noted "director Palanivel Raja has made Sankaran Kovil as entertaining as possible even with an overused story line."[10]

The film performed poorly at the box office.[11]
