Production

In 1959, S. S. Vasan, the proprietor of Gemini Studios, began working on a film built around capital-labour relations.[1] The film, which was the Tamil remake of the Hindi film Paigham,[2] was untitled, and the creative team of Gemini could not come up with a convincing title. Vasan invited his employees to suggest a title for the under-production film, and he received an abundance of entries; one office boy submitted as many as 2500 entries. After examining one by one, Vasan chose the title Irumbu Thirai, which means "Iron Curtain". He also hosted a reception to honour the boy who suggested the title and rewarded him with some price money.[1] Besides producing, Vasan also directed the film.[4]

The female cast of Paigham – Vyjayanthimala, B. Saroja Devi and Pandari Bai – returned to star in Irumbu Thirai,[3][4] while Sivaji Ganesan reprised the role originally played by Dilip Kumar. It was a "coup of sorts" for Vasan to cast Ganesan since the latter had earlier been rejected by the former for a role in Chandralekha (1948), an incident which created a permanent rift between them.[2]{{sfn|Guy|1997|p=282}} K. A. Thangavelu, S. V. Ranga Rao and S. V. Subbaiah were cast in supporting roles.[4] Vyjayanthimala's mother Vasundhara Devi played her screen mother as well.[5] The final length of the film was 18396 feet.[4]

Themes

Irumbu Thirai focuses on capital-labour relations,[1] and the conditions of working class people.[6]

Soundtrack

The soundtrack was composed by S. V. Venkatraman.[7] The album had Kothamangalam Subbu, Papanasam Sivan and Pattukkottai Kalyanasundaram as the lyricists.[8] The singers consist of T. M.

Jamuna Rani.[9] The song "Nenjil Kudiyirukkum" is set in the carnatic raga known as Shanmukhapriya,[10] while the classical-themed "Enna Seidhaalum" is set in Kharaharapriya.[11][12]
