Trivia

- Director Rathan Linga also served as the film's cinematographer, giving it a distinct visual style on a limited budget.
- Lead actress Archana Ravi was primarily known as a model before this film, which marked one of her early prominent acting roles in Tamil.
- The movie was shot extensively in and around Chennai, using real urban locations to create a gritty, realistic atmosphere.
- Despite its action genre, the film's original soundtrack featured melodic songs composed by relatively new music directors at the time.
