During the making of Pudhiya Mannargal, Vikram was approached by Mani Ratnam to star in Bombay (1995). However, Vikram had grown his hair long and had a beard for the film, and could not change his appearance to accept Ratnam's offer.[1]
All songs were composed by A. R. Rahman and lyrics were by Palani Bharathi and Kalidasan.[2] The song "Nee Kattum Selai" attained popularity.[3]

New Straits Times wrote "Nothing much in this movie but a controversial idea".[4] The film did not perform well commercially, with Sudhish Kamath noting, "The problem with it: the same old cliches of commercial cinema — the film was ridden with stereotypes, predictable incidents triggered by unidimensional screen villains".[5]
