Production[]

The film marked the directorial debut of Mano Ve Kannathasan, an engineer-turned-filmmaker. Amrutha was selected after the filmmaker had seen her work on earlier web series projects such as Livin (2017) and Kallachirippu (2018). Mano felt that as she was also a theatre artiste, she would be comfortable to shoot in the style of guerrilla filmmaking. Theatre artiste and trainer Rajesh Balachandran, who had acted in Chennai 2 Singapore (2017), was also selected to play a crucial role in this film, as were Vignesh Shanmugam, Shree Raj, who had acted in the Malayalam film Cuban Colony (2018), Swayam Siddha and Kishore Rajkumar, the director of Naai Sekar (2022).[2]

Amrutha married actor Karthik Kumar, a week before the release of the film.[3]

Release[]

The film was released on 17 December 2021 across theatres in Tamil Nadu. A critic from The Times of India gave the film a positive review, noting it "is a good thriller with an interesting plot that can intrigue the inner detective in you".[4] The film was also reviewed by Tamil dailies Dinamalar and Maalai Malar.[5][6]
