The film marked Muktha Srinivasan's 50th year in the film industry. Though Vikram's big budget film, Ullaasam (1997), became a box office failure - the producers still offered him the chance to star in a new project, although they felt that he could not carry a film on his own. Newcomer Sriram, who was a medical student, was subsequently added to the cast.[2]
Music was composed by Ilaiyaraaja. All the songs from the Kannada film were retained, which had also been composed by the Ilaiyaraaja.[3]

A critic wrote "eventhough the basic plot is the same old love triangle, the scenes in the movie feels fresh".[4] A reviewer from The Hindu wrote "the concluding portions where the three meet in a clash of emotions, the boys being beaten by a level- headed girl, requires some more depth in handling."[5]
