→Trivia
- The film's title is a Tamil translation of the Aesop's fable 'The Wolf and the Lamb', reflecting its central conflict.
- Director Mysskin himself played the small but pivotal role of the police officer who interrogates the protagonist.
- The entire film was shot using only natural light and available sources, creating a distinct gritty visual style.
- Composer Ilaiyaraaja recorded the background score in a single overnight session, which is highly unusual for film scoring.
- The movie was partially inspired by real-life reports of medical students facing moral dilemmas in emergency situations.
- It was shot extensively in the narrow lanes and old buildings of North Chennai to achieve an authentic urban atmosphere.
- Despite critical praise, the film had a very limited theatrical release, which affected its initial box office performance.
