TMS composed the music for "Balapareetchai" in which there were a couple of good songs. Veteran S.V.Venkataraman composed music after a long gap for "Sri Krishna Leela", which would be his last film. Chandrabose made his arrival felt, both as a singer (Aaru Pushpangal) and as a Music Director (Madhura Geetham). He had 20 films in hand this year, and many of them had memorable songs.
