Trivia
- The film's director, Rama Narayanan, was known for making many devotional films but this was his only movie centered on a snake goddess.
- Actress Roja, who played Meena, was already a popular star but this role had her portraying a more naive and simple character.
- The movie was shot quickly, like many low-budget devotional films of that time, to meet demand from rural audiences.
- It was released during a period when temple festival screenings were a major source of revenue for such films.
- The pet snake in the story is a cultural reference to the nagam (serpent deity) often associated with Amman goddess worship in Tamil folk tradition.
- The villain character Seemadorai was played by actor Vijayakumar, who often played stern or negative roles in devotional cinema.
