Mofussil (transl. Rural district) is a 2022 Indian Tamil-language romantic drama film directed by N. P. Sarathy and starring Akhil and Sri Divya. Having began production in 2010, the film released after a twelve-year delay via YouTube.

Production[edit]
The film began production in 2010 under the title Nagarpuram and was supposed to mark Sri Divya's Tamil debut.[2][1] The film was shot in early 2011 near Vijayakumar's Chennai house.[3] The film remained unreleased despite reports that the film would release in September 2013 alongside a Telugu dubbed version.[4] In 2014, the producers of the film complained to Nadigar Sangam that Sri Divya was "refusing to extend her cooperation [to help release the film] stating that her star status has risen considerably".[5][6] The film remained unreleased until the film was released directly via YouTube in 2022.[7][8]
Soundtrack[edit]
The music was composed by Aruldev.[9] The lyrics were written by Yugabharathi, Na. Muthukumar and Jaya Murasu.[10] This was the second film Aruldev worked on after Potta Potti (2011). Initially, Hariharan sang one of the songs, but after the music director was dissatisfied with the visuals, he was replaced by Aalap Raju.[11] In a music review of the film, a writer from The Times of India rated the soundtrack three out of five stars and wrote that "Music composer Arul Dev has learnt the ropes of music composition from Vidyasagar. This probably explains why all the songs in his Nagarpuram, irrespective of the mood it tries to establish, are high on melody".[12]
