The breeze blows) is a 1989 Indian Tamil-language film directed by Manobala and written by M. Karunanidhi, starring Nizhalgal Ravi and Radhika.

It is a remake of the Hindi film Khoon Bhari Maang (1988), itself loosely based on the Australian miniseries Return to Eden (1983).

[2] When Radhika approached Manobala to remake Khoon Bhari Maang in Tamil, he was initially reluctant due to his lack of interest in directing remakes, but he accepted after she assured him that changes would be made to suit the interest of Tamil-speaking audiences, and the screenplay would be written by Karunanidhi.

[7] N. Krishnaswamy of The Indian Express wrote, "Thendral Sudum despite the familiar theme manages to keep alive viewer interest because of neat characterisation [..] and good acting".

[8] P. S. S. of Kalki praised the performances of Radhika, Nizhalgal Ravi and Lokanath's cinematography, he also praised the dialogues of Karunanidhi by updating himself for today's times but felt the dialogues he had written for the emotional sequences were old-fashioned, similar to Parasakthi (1952).
