Cast

Production

Jayalalitha agreed to act opposite Sarath Babu at the insistence of her co-star in many films Rama Prabha.The other reason for accepting to act in this film was the debutant director B. Lenin, was son of A. Bhimsingh, who had directed her in Paadhukaappu and Kanavan Manaivi. It was not released at every centre in Tamil Nadu, as most film distributors did not buy rights from producers sighting that casting Jayalalitha who had a superstar image, with actors who were considered lesser mortals would not be acceptable to public. This film is rarely screened in television and its clear print is rarely available in any site or video parlours. The songs were composed by Ilaiyaraaja. Two video of the songs - Thavikuthu Thayanguthu, which was sung by S.P.Shailaja with P.Jayachandran and Engoyo Etho Paatondru sung by P.Susheela, became popular in the radio and television before release of the film.[2] However the last film in which she worked and her last release as the lead heroine was the Telugu film in 1980, named Nayakudu Vinayakudu, which became the highest grosser of the year 1980 in Telugu.[3]
