Kavikkuyil is a classic Tamil film released in 1977. It was directed by Devaraj Mohan and starred Sivakumar, Sridevi, and Rajinikanth in the lead roles. The movie tells the story of a young girl named Raji who aspires to be a singer. Raji (Sridevi) is a mute girl who lives with her father in a rural village. Despite her disability, she has a beautiful singing voice and dreams of becoming a famous singer. Her father encourages her and arranges for her to sing at a temple festival. On the way to the festival, Raji meets Ravi (Sivakumar), a city-based musician who is on his way to the same festival. They form a bond and Ravi becomes determined to help Raji achieve her dream of becoming a singer.

Ravi introduces Raji to a well-known music director named Ganesh (Rajinikanth), who becomes impressed with Raji's talent and decides to give her an opportunity in films. However, Raji's father opposes her singing in films and forces her to leave the city and return home.

Back in the village, Raji's father arranges her marriage to a wealthy man named Kumar. Raji is devastated at the prospect of being forced into a marriage she does not want and runs away from home. Ravi, who has also returned to the village, finds Raji and takes her under his care. He encourages her to continue pursuing her passion for singing and arranges for her to participate in a music competition.

At the competition, Raji gives a mesmerizing performance and wins the hearts of the judges and the audience. Encouraged by her success, Raji decides to pursue a career in music and move to the city with Ravi's help.

Kavikkuyil is a heartwarming tale of determination and perseverance. Sridevi shines in her role as the mute girl with a passion for singing. She delivers a convincing performance that tugs at one's heartstrings. Sivakumar also delivers an impressive performance as the kind-hearted musician who encourages and inspires Raji to pursue her dream.

Rajinikanth's role, though brief, is impactful. He plays the music director who recognizes Raji's talent and offers her a chance to make it big in films. The movie's soundtrack composed by Ilaiyaraaja is another highlight, with songs like "Poongatru Puthithanathu" and "Kuyil Pattu" becoming evergreen hits.

Overall, Kavikkuyil is a classic film that stands the test of time, with its engaging storyline and memorable performances. It is a must-watch for fans of Sridevi, Sivakumar, Rajinikanth, and Tamil cinema in general.
