Trivia

  • The film is a remake of the 2018 Kannada movie 'Mufti', which itself was inspired by the 2016 Malayalam film 'Maheshinte Prathikaaram' in its core ghost-possession premise.
  • Director Saran, known for his early 2000s hits, returned to direction with this film after a gap of nearly four years.
  • Actor Sathyaraj, who plays a key role, had previously worked with director Saran in the 2002 blockbuster 'Gemini'.
  • The movie's title is a playful nod to the iconic Hindi film 'Munnabhai M.B.B.S.', blending the gangster ('Market Raja') and medical college themes.
  • Despite its comedy-action genre, the film incorporates elements of Tamil folk beliefs about spirit possession, a theme less common in mainstream Tamil cinema of that period.
  • The soundtrack was composed by N. R. Raghunanthan, who is better known as a playback singer; this was one of his few full-length film scores as a composer.
  • The film's release faced delays and underwent last-minute title changes from the initially announced 'Market Raja' to the final 'Market Raja MBBS' to emphasize the medical college plot.
