Damodar is a famous music director and playback singer who has won many awards. Gnanam, the man behind his success, works hard for his breakthrough and he now considers Damodar as his archenemy. Damodar's son Krishna is a drunkard and spoils his life by drinking alcohol. In the past, Krishna was in love with Aparna, but there was a difference of opinion between the two, so they separated.
Later, Sukanya, Damodar's wife, dies by falling from stairs. Damodar then falls ill and Dr Priya takes care of him. Priya was a fan of Damodar and they were in love when they were young.
Thereafter, Gnanam steals Damodar's records in his studio and becomes one of the top music directors. In the meantime, Damodar gets well and Priya meets Aparna to talk about Krishna. Aparna admitted that she was cheated by her friend and she attempted to commit suicide but she failed to because she cannot forget her lover Krishna. Gnanam then apologises to Damodar for his misdeeds. Finally, Krishna marries Aparna, and Damodar and Priya also marry.
Sigaram was released on 11 January 1991.[6] N. Krishnaswamy of The Indian Express wrote on 25 January, "The script bristles with humorous [sic] as well as tragic sequences, and if there is something to quarrel with it is the way it is structured."[7] C. R. K. of Kalki wrote that though the songs were melodious, they were too many.[8] The film was a commercial success, with Balasubrahmanyam attributing it to Vairamuthu's lyrics and Yesudas' singing.[9] Balasubrahmanyam won the Film Fans Association Award for Best Music Director.[10]
