[edit] Production

Sabapathy was one of the early hits of Tamil film pioneer A. V. Meiyappan. He entered the Tamil film industry as a director with his 1935 film Alli Arjuna which bombed at the box-office. His other early ventures too were average grossers.

AVM's 1940-mythological Bhookailash and his 1941 comedy film Sabapathy were resounding hits, the first of his, which actually made his name as a director and film personality[1].
