Trivia

  • Director Yaar Kannan was primarily known as a cinematographer; this was his directorial debut in Tamil cinema.
  • The movie was shot in just 30 days, a very short schedule for a sci-fi thriller in that era.
  • It featured a cameo by popular comedian Vadivelu in a serious role, which was a departure from his usual style.
  • The film's climax involved a comet impact, a rare visual effects attempt in mid-2000s Tamil cinema.
