Sangamam (Eng: Confluence) is a 1999 Indian Tamil-language musical romance dance film co written and directed by Suresh Krissna and produced by V. Natarajan of Pyramid Films.
The film stars Rahman and newcomer Vindhya with Manivannan, Vijayakumar, Radharavi, and Vadivelu playing other important roles. The film’s music was composed by A. R. Rahman, while Saravanan handled the cinematography.
The film was released in 1999 but despite the award-winning soundtracks and rave reviews, the film became a financial failure.
This film depicts the disputes between two forms of the dance styles and music, Classical Indian (in particular Carnatic music and Bharathanatyam danceform) against rural Tamil folk music and dance.
