Today is Poornima Bhagyaraj’s birthday. Our song of the day is ‘Azhagiya Vizhigalil’ from the 1982 film Darling Darling Darling written and directed by Bhagyaraj, and also starring him. His character is the son of a watchman who is in love with a rich industrialist’s daughter played by Poornima. Set to lyrics by Pulamaipithan, this romantic song featuring them is a classic by SPB and Vani Jayaram.
It was during this film that Bhagyaraj and Poornima fell in love. In the next two years, she acted in 17 Tamil movies, and also many in Telugu, Hindi and Malayalam, and took a break after her wedding to Bhagyaraj in 1984. She made her comeback with Aadhalal Kaadhal Seiveer (2013).
