Cast

Production

Newcomer Krishnakumar was signed on to play the lead role alongside Udhaya, while debutant Vaali, a close friend of Sanjay Ram was also cast in the film. In August 2008, the film was ready to be released by 15 August, but the project was subsequently delayed.

The film went through a change of producer with Sanjay Ram replacing Balu Poththan and Ram Prakash. Prior to the release of the film, Sherin lodged a complaint with the Nadigar Sangam stating that she had not finished shooting for her parts in the film and that the director was trying to release a film with a different script to the original pitched to her. She suggested that the producer Sanjay Ram had "played dirty" and the team were releasing the film without paying her acting fee.
