Muthulingam was a theevira ilakkiya rasigar from his
childhood days. Apparently he spoilt his studies because
of his interest towards tamil literature. Initially
he was writing for Murasoli but later joined AIADMK.
That brought him many awards during 1979, 1980(kalaimaamani),
1981, 1984(MLC), 1987(aasthaana kavignar).
