Vedham Pudhithu (1987), starring Sathyaraj and Amala is a critically acclaimed Tamil movie, directed by Bharathiraja. Charu Hassan, Saritha, Raja and 'Nizhalgal' Ravi played supporting roles in the movie. The story was written by Kannan, who has written many innovative stage plays.

The film dealt with the caste issue in a strong manner. The film's narrative was seamless and starred Sathyaraj as "Balu Thevar". It contains some of Bharathiraja's trademark touches as well as a lot of path breaking scenes. However, it does follow the anti-Brahmin trend common in Tamil films - in this respect it departed from his earlier success, "Alaigal Oiyvadhillai", where the caste and religion factor was given a more balanced treatment.
