Trivia
- This film was the first Tamil movie to be shot in the picturesque hill station of Ooty's famous botanical gardens.
- The director, Chitralaya Gopu, was primarily known as a legendary comedy writer, and this was one of his few directorial ventures.
- A popular comedy track in the film was inspired by a real-life incident involving a miserly relative of one of the scriptwriters.
- The movie's soundtrack, composed by M. S. Viswanathan, reused a hit melody from his own earlier Hindi film score.
- Actor Nagesh, who plays a key role, performed a rare serious character here, unlike his usual comedic parts.
- The film's climax scene involving the stolen money was filmed in a single continuous shot, which was technically unusual for its time.
- Despite the star cast, the movie had a modest box office run and is now remembered mostly by fans of classic Tamil comedy.
