• The movie was shot extensively in and around Kodaikanal, using the real forest locations to create a tense atmosphere.
• Actor Krishna, who plays one of the thieves, is the son of veteran Tamil actor Sivakumar and brother of actors Suriya and Karthi.
• The film's plot of a wolf attack is unusual for Tamil cinema, which more commonly features conflicts with tigers or leopards.

• Despite its thriller premise, the film incorporates a significant romantic subplot for one of the lead characters.
