Accolades

edit

In early 2026, the Government of Tamil Nadu announced the Tamil Nadu State Film Awards for films released between 2016 and 2022. Sandakkari won in three categories in the 2020 batch: Best Film (Third Prize), Best Male Playback Singer (Amresh Ganesh), and Best Art Director (Ayyappan).[10] This led to netizens questioning under what criteria it qualified since it had yet to receive a theatrical release.[11]
