The film was released on 18 June 1971.[1] The film was simultaneously made in Hindi as Duniya Kya Jane (transl. What does the World know?) with a largely different cast.

Plot[]

The film deals with a love triangle, with a good measure of values of the high society and those of the liberal culture of the 1960s.

Cast[]

Production[]

Avalukendru Oru Manam was simultaneously made in Hindi as Duniya Kya Jane.[2] While choosing established actors in Tamil, Sridhar cast newcomers in Hindi to keep the budget lower.[3][4]

Soundtrack[]

The music was composed by M. S. Viswanathan, with lyrics by Kannadasan.[5][6] Ilaiyaraaja, who was Viswanathan's assistant at that time played organ for the song "Malar Edhu".[7][8]
