Production

The film was first scheduled in April 2012 when Vidharth announced that he would star in a film titled Vilambaram, based on a real-life story, to be directed by twin directors Ram and Laxman, who had previously worked on different commercials.[3] He began work on the project alongside another project titled Vanavedikkai directed by Praghadeesh, after another project, Kaatumalli, went into a production break. The film began its first schedule in July 2012 with the title changed to Venmegam.[4] The film held a press meet in December 2013 and revealed the basic plot of the film, noting it would feature the bond between an artist and a school kid as a central theme.[5]

Release

The film released on 21 February 2014, opening in minimal screens as a result of two other bigger Tamil film releases on the same day, Bramman and Aaha Kalyanam. A critic from New Indian Express revealed "a more coherent screenplay and a clearer narration would have made the film a riveting experience" though the director duo should be "commended for tackling an issue rarely touched upon in films".[6]
