Trivia
- The film's title was inspired by a line from the 1982 Tamil film 'Moondram Pirai', which also influenced its romantic tone.
- Gautham Menon initially planned to shoot the entire film in Kerala but later shifted major portions to Chennai and Goa.
- Silambarasan was first considered for the male lead before Simbu recommended his friend Trisha, who eventually played the female lead.
- The song 'Hosanna' was filmed in just two days in Goa, using natural lighting to match the film's realistic style.
- The film's climax was reshot after test audiences felt the original ending was too sad, leading to a more hopeful version.
- It was the first Tamil film to have a soundtrack released exclusively on iTunes before its physical CD launch.
- A Hindi remake titled 'Ekk Deewana Tha' was released in 2012, directed by Gautham Menon himself with different lead actors.
