Trivia
- The film's title is a direct nod to the 1995 Tamil film 'Irudhi Sutru', which had the same tagline.
- Director Ranjit Jeyakodi originally planned a different climax but changed it after discussions with the lead actors.
- The song 'Marandhaye' was filmed in a single long take, requiring precise coordination from the crew and actors.
- Composer Sam C.S. used a unique blend of synth and classical instruments to create the film's melancholic score.
- The movie's runtime was significantly shortened after test screenings, with several romantic scenes being edited out.
- A minor subplot involving the female lead's friend was almost entirely cut from the final theatrical version.
- The film was shot extensively in real locations around Chennai to maintain a grounded, urban feel.
