Trivia
- This was the only Tamil film directed by Malayalam filmmaker Cochin Haneefa, who was better known as an actor.
- The child actress who played Ammu, Baby Shalini, was already a popular star from her work in films like 'Anjali'.
- The film's music was composed by Ilaiyaraaja, but it did not spawn any major hit songs like many of his other scores.
- The story highlights the social issue of child abuse and stepmother cruelty, a theme less common in mainstream Tamil cinema of that era.
- It was produced by Sivaji Productions, a company founded by the legendary actor Sivaji Ganesan, though he was not directly involved.
- The film is a remake of the 1988 Malayalam movie 'Vicharana', which also dealt with a similar storyline.
- Despite its serious theme, the film had limited commercial success and is not widely remembered today compared to other 1990s dramas.
