Cast

Production

Kamal Haasan, co-producer for the film, persuaded and succeeded in getting K. Viswanath to make his debut as an actor for the film. Kamal Haasan revealed that the character required a renowned person to play the man who he bowed to, and if it was any other person, scenes would have had to be used to establish his importance. This film was produced by acclaimed singer S. P. Balasubrahmanyam.[2]

Release and reception

The Movie released on April 28, 1995. The film won five Nandi Awards.

The film was later dubbed into Tamil-language as Paasavalai, released on July 28, 1995. Tamil dubbed version was distributed by Kamal Haasan's own production company Raaj Kamal Films International. Reviewing this version for Tamil magazine Kalki, R. P. R. wrote it is possible only for the best directors to bring a unique actor to his style and make him show a new dimension. K. Viswanath has achieved. In that sense it is not a Kamal film; Vishwanath film.[6]

The music for this movie was composed by M. M. Keeravani. This album involved the voices of S. P. Balasubrahmanyam, K. S. Chithra, S. P. Sailaja and Pallavi. All tracks were huge hits, especially the song "Seetamma Andalu" (by S. P. Balasubrahmanyam, Chithra & Sailaja), it was expressively sung by Sailaja, which fetched her first Nandi Award. Lyrics were written by Veturi and Sitarama Sastry. Even Keeravani won a Filmfare Award for best music direction. Keeravani used Chithra's voice for the character Sandhya in the picture, and Sailaja's voice for Amani (which needed a folky touch) and Pallavi's voice was used to provide a Hollywood tinge of background music. The song "Narudu Bratuku Nartana" sung by S. P. Balasubrahmanyam involved the hit track of Ilaiyaraaja's musical Sagara Sangamam and that track involved 2 tracks of this picture itself (Chiranjeevi Soubhagyavathi-Seethamma Andalu).
