Nagoor Studio: Newtone ProductionElangovan took almost a year to complete the screenplay. He was not sure how to end the story. So, he wrote three endings and left the decision to the producers and the director. All three endings were filmed. Sound TrackMusic was composed by S. V. Venkataraman and Kunnakudi Venkatarama Iyer while the lyrics were penned by Kambadasan and T. K. Sundara Vaathiyar. Though there were 10 songs in the film only one ‘Silaye née ennidam' sung by P. U. Chinnappa was a hit. Box officeAlthough the film was acclaimed by critics for good acting by Kannamba and Chinnappa, the people at that time did not accept the story because it shows a King going after another person's wife. Therefore, the film did not do well at the box office.
