== Reception ==<br />
''The Indian Express'' compared the film's plot to ''[[Veedu]]'': "Illam is unlike ''Veedu'' in many ways [..] it does not have anchoring in social factors [..] and is mainly interested in the melodramatic aspects of the plot".<ref>{{Cite news |date=12 August 1988 |title=Illam |pages=5 |work=[[The Indian Express]] |url=https://news.google.com/newspapers?nid=P9oYG7HA76QC&dat=19880812&printsec=frontpage&hl=en |access-date=3 November 2017}}{{cbignore}}</ref> Amala won the Best Actress Special Award at the [[9th Cinema Express Awards]].<ref>{{Cite news |date=11 March 1989 |title=Cinema Express readers choose Agni Nakshathiram |pages=4 |work=[[The Indian Express]] |agency=Express News Service |url=https://news.google.com/newspapers?nid=P9oYG7HA76QC&dat=19890311&printsec=frontpage |access-date=19 February 2021}}{{cbignore}}</ref><br />
