Production[]

Shobana Vignesh, who had earlier appeared in Mahanadhi (1994), was initially selected to play a role in the film alongside fellow actresses Meena and Roja. The first promotional campaign however featured Sangita's name instead of Shobana, prompting Meena to attempt to leave the project citing potential reduced prominence owing to a third lead actress. The director subsequently asked her to stay on, assuring importance. After the release of the film, Meena criticised Raj Kapoor for his false assurances.[2]

Soundtrack[]

Soundtrack was composed by Deva and lyrics were written by Vaali.[3][4]
