Production

Baghdad Thirudan was financed by Krishnaswamy Naidu, the former owner of Golden Studios. A single set in the film cost {{INRConvert|30000}}, and MGR always wanted new sets. By this type of over-expenditure, it was believed that the film would ultimately cost {{INRConvert|500000}}. MGR demanded that an additional {{INRConvert|200000}} be spent to complete the film, much to Naidu's horror.[6]Baghdad Thirudan was also the only film that featured MGR opposite Vyjayanthimala.[7] MGR briefly served as the film's editor. During the filming of Baghdad Thirudan, MGR said, "I was at the editing table, and it was so easy to join the cuts, because the movements just flowed into each other".[8] Actress S. N. Lakshmi, who played an important role in the film, had to fight a leopard in one scene without the use of a "dupe".[9] She later remarked that she feared cats.[10]
